MAC x Pedro Lourenço (June 5, 2014)

[novocainedreams]

So after being bummed I missed on Sharon and Kelly AND these glosses were gone from Nordstrom when I went online, I just looked and found them on Bloomie's site! And I get free shipping because I am a loyalist. So I got both glosses, yay! A little happiness after being sick all weekend and missing out on the other stuff.

Also...I had contemplated the blush but wasn't sure after all the negative reviews....anyone get it and love it?

K I'll check what's the deal. This might not be in stores. Idk cause I got my crap online. But I work very close to 34th. And that macys is the mother ship. Has like 3 or 4 macs inside it. Ridic. I'll see what's up.

I would be forever indebted!!!!!!!!! Canada seriously tried to abduct me, would NOT let me leave lol

There are worse things that could happen.

Good for you! I received my blush yesterday and I love it!

The collection went live on Bloomingdales and Macys online and I managed to miss Roxo AGAIN

I received my blush yesterday and didn't have any problems swatching or getting color off of it. I also found it quite soft. I'm wondering if there was a dud batch??





Here are swatches- One in the shade and one in full sun. The last swatch is both shades mixed together.

I missed it again too. I'm sad. Guess we can hope for a restock?

From my blush, you can definitely not get these swatches you have up there. Why did I have to get mine from that "dud" batch

Bloomies now has just "Gold Mirror" (the other one is OOS)

I placed an order for "Gold Mirror" with my loyalist free ship. I'm hoping it's Mirror when it arrives.

Hmmm, I'm annoyed. The only Nordstrom near me getting this collection in store is the one in downtown Chicago. That is less than convenient. Is there a way other than MAC chat to find out if my local MAC stores are getting it? Since MAC chat is closed until tomorrow morning, I'm feeling impatient.

Call the stores or mac

Me too. I'm like how did this happen. I'm such a good stalker usually!

I skipped the Coral Duo after seeing temptalia first rating now she bought it again and gave it B- and I regret it it's Sold out in MAC & shows as Unavailable in Nord -_-

Oh, wow, is that the first time she's done that? I don't remember her doing that before...

Sara--this is an update from Temptalia's site---maybe yours will be ok?

I purchased an additional Corol through maccosmetics.com to see if it would be any better. I’m happy to report that it is better in texture–there was no need to scrape layers off. The texture was soft, a little powdery, and the lighter shade was almost chalky, but the consistency of the powder was infinitely better than the one I received as a sample. When I compared the two powders together, I noticed that the lighter side darkens after you remove a few layers. At first, I thought the shades differed, but after I brushed away several layers from the second powder, the two matched. A few readers also reported that their powders were manageable, which is great news. The original rating was 0.5, 3, 4, 6.5, and 0.5 for the powder as a whole; I’m updating the rating to reflect the consumer version available based on the one I purchased but leaving the original review so that we have a complete story going forward

I'm glad to see that she responded to the reader feedback.

No I can only order from the international Bloomindales (Which doesn't show anything in Beauty Department) & I can't order from the US Bloomingdales because it requies a US billing address while mine is not because I don't live there
