I agree about Macy's probably not doing anything but shoot doesn't hurt to let them know. I'm drafting a nice letter as I type this.

No doubt. But there's a difference between having 3-4 lipsticks (which might have been purchased legally) and selling them at highly inflated prices. When someone's got 50 plus lipsticks there's something wrong. I totally believe MAC doesn't care, but I think Macy's and Nordstrom will if it means they're being defrauded and possibly losing money.
i know what u mean, but they are both successful multi-million dollar companies, with a return anytime policy. They not worried about being defrauded about this or losing money.

This was my first real foray into Mac and I have to say, this stuff stressed me out! In the fall collection, the items that I wanted kind of fell into my lap (RRW was readily available, store customer service found Diamonds for me and got WTC because I randomly called store thousands of miles away to ask about this holiday collection). For this collection, I ended up oddly getting one of 3 PBs from a local Macys over the phone and had to buy from 2 different stores on opposite sides of the country to get the remaining. In the end, I was able to pick up lipsticks for me and my sister mother & daughter for Christmas gifts. If they don't work out, I will gladly post them in the clearance bin at cost for you ladies.

I don't even know. To be honest, I'm not a big fan of Beyonce's makeup. Not her stage makeup, anyway. I think she usually looks better on her own time. I do think some kick ass products would be put together for a collection with her name on it, though. Her style is funkier than it's ever been. I need it. I'm not buying L'Oreal. I need her to do something with a major brand. As I use one of her lipsticks I can imagine I have one of those wind machines that she seems to have with her everywhere she goes.
I would DIE if L'Oreal released a comprehensive makeup package across their higher end cosmetics brands like Urban Decay, YSL, Armani heck even Maybelline! She would never release under a different parent company because of her contract so L'Oreal needs to make it happen.

Thank you sara for kind word, I guess it still takes me courage to post the whole image. :p
Pleasure bomb, bgrr, bronzer.
The photo does not do justice to the lip color and bronzer. The actual color is darker on me, I guess has something to do with lighting? My lip nature color is mauve.

sleepingbeauty, I had tried the eye palettes, if you like shimmer finish, I think they can meet the expectation, the shades are quite soft. They are like pressed pigment to me. They are nice color, but need to work on ways to minimize the fall out. I am not sure if I am helpful here. Hopefully there are more people who are good in make up can comment.

This is very true they may investigate and be able to stop it. I work for a large company and you'd be surprised how much attention a well written letter gets.

Both of my Nordstrom orders are stuck at "shipping label created." No updates and the label was created on 12/10. This has never happened to me. Idk if I should keep waiting and see if it changes or if I should call Nordstrom and check on this.
How many order did you have? I though you already got your stuff?

I'm NC50 and swatched the bronzer. I got excited when I swatches it with the overspray because it had a nice coppery/bronzey look. But then I swatched if without the overspray and it looked way too light. I happily walked away.
