Just ordered Sweet Samba & Simmer blushes from Nordies since all mac has is a coming soon this morning & I got a Nordies Note in the mail yesterday.
Are they labeled right at Nordstroms for you? Simmer (or what I thought was Simmer...) is labeled as Sweet Samba? I'm confused.

They are both showing the same picture - at least this morning. I'm just hoping that whomever packs them, checks the labels. I think I will call Nordies CS & tell them they need to check. Just in case :)

Lastly, this collection's MSFs and MBs are more unusual in texture than some of the sure-fire favorites from the past and even diehard Mineralize fans may have to figure out new ways to apply and use them. I LOOOOOOOVE Mineralize and it took me hours of playing around in store with a bunch of different brushes and placement patterns before they started to click. Even then, this batch is very metallic and I know I'm going to use them in the summer and for dressy evenings out more than other Mineralize items that I can use day and night any time of the year
That is what I love about the MSF! For evening looks I usually end up combining one or two shades of color MSF w/ a contouring, matte MSF to create depth & highlight. I also play with different brushes for placement & amount of color applied. Lots of fun :)

Ditto! BUT the MAC CS gal did successfully cancel my original order with the mismatched MBs :) Sometimes they do a good job! Besides I'm all about delayed gratification! :D

All I got was Adored. I was going to get the 159, but I want to see it in action first. I'm almost proud of myself for being so good this time around.

I did a live chat to ask (at Nordstroms)... I talked to a couple of different people and she said: "Simmer has the pink tone, Sweet Samba has the deeper or reddish tone."

So... I guess if you order Sweet Samba, you'll get Simmer?

Yayyyyyy I just got an email from CS and since there was an error on the website with the blushes, they will send me Simmer too (I ordered Sweet Samba) because they weren't sure which I wanted (the image for each blush was the wrong one) and they apologized for the confusion. This made my day! Now if my order could ship soon!

From Nordies, right?
 
 
I gave up waiting too and ordered the wrong one I think. Can always send it back so that's good but ugh!



No, MAC website (Canada).

I noticed that Nordies says (at least the blushes) they cannot be picked up in the store by ordering on the website.

I also told them, that the mineral items NEED to be put in cushioned material because if they just ship them in an envelope mailer, most times they will come cracked.

More notes in my account @ Nordies

Nordies was very thankful that I called.
