Yeah that's fine, just thought I'd get a couple for people that missed out and couldn't get to a mac store


Thanks I sent you a PM saying the same thing LOL Fingers crossed I'll get a shipping notice soon and I won't need it so someone else who missed out could get one. Really good of you to do that, but I knew when I suggested it you'd have no problem getting rid of them!

I've just had a survey through from MAC, offering a free mini M.A.C False Lashes Mascara (1g) for replying. I've never had one of these before - has anyone else had them?

Ive been sent free stuff with my mac order before but i've neevr had a do a survey and we will give you a free item email before,
looking through the survey questions it seems that they want to see if the free gift thing is something they should be considering as a company?

They mostly seem to be asking about customer service, and about how the staff are towards customers in-branch with product knowledge, advice. remembering your name and what you have previously bought and being polite. Of course I have only ever been to a MAC counter once. If they'd asked about product availability online, or had a box for me to put my own comments, I would have complained about the obviously inadequate amounts of stock for certain limited edition collections.

Yeah Id imagine a lot of people who are buying mac online will have a limited experience with mac stand alone stores or counters, so it didn't make much sense to have the focus on the store experience rather than the online experience.

I got a dispatch notice (and confirmation of a refund coming for the overcharge on Bad Fairy) so I won't need this now - thanks again though. Hopefully someone else will take it off your hands!

There's been a bit of a restock on RHPS!

I got the email through from Mac and clicked on the link thinking "ok, what can i ACTUALLY buy at this point?!" but it turns out a lot of items were back in stock - I picked up the contour duo that I'd been swithering about - couldn't decide whether to get this, or just buy the full size pans and a palette.


Edit: All the lippies, contour duo and blush are sold out again

Thanks. I wish I had seen this earlier x

Thanks for posting. Unfortunately I missed out again! Its the contour duo I desperately wanted and really wanted Strange Journey. Well done getting what you wanted!

The restock disappeared almost as quickly as the initial launch, it seems - I got the Mac email at 11:45, and got my order confirmation email at 12:02 - by the time I got onto the mac site from the email link, Strange Journey and Franknfurter were sold out again (assuming they were part of the restock) and a bunch of other stuff was sold out when I went back to the page immediately after ordering. It's a bit hopeless that buying lipstick has turned into some kind of Herculean task!

 

[rockin]

My pigment has been dispatched

 

[kirstw91]

My blush, shade and sculpt duo and strange journey lipstick has been dispatched... Lets hope everything is definitely delivered

 

[dingaling666]

I had the same problem, I put 2 SS in my basket & FF Lippie but by the time I came to pay they had gone from my basket ! Ended up with 2 blushers and 5 lippies altogether but no FF lippies, but really wanted the SS !!

I know its crazy! Buying make up should not be this stressful. Why is Mac so damn addictive lol, I don't know why I do it to myself. I've actually been on a no buy for a while and I purposely avoided Specktra as it always makes me want stuff. I ultimately caved for matte collection and got 2 lipsticks. But I had always planned on getting some things from Rocky Horror collection as I love the movie and was so excited when they announced it. I'm going to keep casually checking for a restock but it doesn't look promising.

Urban Decay Vice 3 and Full Frontal are available here http://www.rosesbeautystore.com/brand/urban-decay/

I'm hoping that's not the prices they will be elsewhere, though. That site has some things cheaper and some more expensive than other places, but they have some things other UK stockists don't. I got the Tarte Pin Up blush palette - it seemed a better deal than buying a couple of individual blushes.

God no! The LTD Vice palette was £42 I think, so Vice 3 is going to be around there for sure. Just wait a couple of weeks for it to come out elsewhere.

Too Faced "Everything Nice" and "Under The Mistletoe" are up on Debenhams now.

 

[xfarrax]

Does anyone know if we're getting the too faced la belle carousel I really liked the look of that

 

[rockin]

"Beauty Wishes and Sweet Kisses" and "Melted Kisses" sets are also up on Debenhams now, so keep watching - hopefully we might get the carousel and "Sugar and Spice" as well.
