The 10% off beauty offer on Debenhams ends today. What's the betting the new Mac collections won't be up until tomorrow?

This is what I was suspecting would happen I only want a couple of things, but 10% off would have been nice!

 

[Alisha1]

Usually debenhams always put up the collection early :/ I bet they are doing it on purpose so we can't take advantage of the 10% - guess I'll just have to purchase from Selfridges tomorrow!

Where can I do Back to MAC in London? Is it any old counter or does it have to be a store/pro store?

I can't say for sure, but I've B2Med at counters before!

I B2Maced in Selfridges for Haute Altitude. The MUA tried to tell me I couldn't B2Mac for LE lipstick, but I told her that since it's not in special packaging, I don't see why not and she gave in. I hope I can B2Mac for Absolute Power tomorrow too.

Thanks! Hopefully I'll be fine doing it at Westfield.

 

[Anitacska]

The one in Westfield is an actual store anyway, not just a counter. I'm sure it'll be fine. What are you getting?

Yeah, for some reason I got it into my head that it has to be a pro store. I wish I had a MAC store on my doorstep ha ha. D'oh. I think Party Parrot is all I want until Archie's Girls. Maybe Strong Woman too. What did you get?

 

[Eleentje]

I've B2M'd my stuff at Westfield (the one in Stratford)

 

[Anitacska]

I want to B2Mac for Absolute Power, plus get the two new paint pots (Antique Diamond and Frozen Violet). Then I'll only get the pearlmattes and the two lighter pigments from Archie.

Do you guys think they would let us b2m for a year of snake l/s? I want cockney but I kinda want it with the snake design lol

Also does anyone know if a guerlain pressed meteorites refill will fit in a MAC iridescent pressed powder compact? It's the same size as the ombre and wonder woman blush compacts. TIA

I'm pretty sure it won't, the Meteorites pan is smaller than the Mac compacts, although I don't have one in front of me to compare. I don't think you'll be able to B2Mac for those lipsticks, but I may be wrong. Do they cost the same as regular lipsticks?

I think they cost £1.50-£1 more than the regular tubes.

Thanks! I was hoping it would fit as I received this iridescent powder ages ago as a gift and never use it as it has huge glitter chucks, hmm would it matter too much if I just put magnetic paper on the compact and a magnet on the refill to secure it on, think I should just take the compact with me tomorrow to a counter and see, I've wanted the voyage powder for ages and I'm still kicking myself for missing out on the christmas one!

The lipbalms look gorgeous!!

A lovely MUA in the MAC Liverpool store has put away some Strength goodies for me for tomorrow. They seemed to have around 20 of each lipstick but I didn't want to take any chances as I'm in work 9-5. I'll be collecting Pink Pigeon, Absolute Power and Embrace Me Lip Liner after work. I wanted Candy Yum Yum too but she couldn't find it in the drawers yet. Will also check out the brow collections and have a play with them tomorrow - the Fluidline Brow Gelcremes and Veluxe Brow Liners look interesting!

I'll take both of those, and the glosses for good measure, what a great looking collection!

I don't think they'd allow b2m for those because they're more expensive.

 

[Alisha1]

Awesome, that's where I'm going. Thanks!

Yeah might just b2m for a perm l/s I like or just get the regular cockney but temptalia said the new one seems more opaque. might swatch in store to see if that's the case!
