I don't think you would lose your order and it will only go through Paypal when your order is confirmed. Let me know how you get on.

Oh well, I 'changed' my password (not that I had ever created an account with them before), logged in and added everything to my basket again, and went through checkout with no problem. I'll keep an eye on my PayPal account to see what happens.
I ordered 4 from Colour Chrome, Rhubarb & Custard, and Oval Plum. It's a shame Boots no longer stock Models Own. Superdrug supposedly do, but I've not seen it in either of my local branches yet. I like to be able to see before I buy.

Nasty Gal is up on the Mac site now! I only got the two reds because purple just isn't for me. Going to wait a bit on the ultimate collection before ordering though.

If you go through the site map you will see the ultimate collection. Though the lipsticks said £40 .... That can't be right can it? I picked up gunner for my sister and red alert eyeshadow for myself. Plus some other permanent items I wanted.

It was more the pricing of the ultimate powder that made me wait a bit until I see it in person. It says you get 8g of product, but I'm sure you get like 12g or so in the select sheer for closer to the £20 mark, which I'm happy enough with at the moment! If the ultimate powder is amazing, I'm happy to pay for it, but I don't really fancy paying double if it's not for me!
Edit: Select Sheer pressed £17.08 /10g, Ultimate powder £50 /10g!

I had wanted the light pink eyeshadow from the red collection called give me fire, but wow £13 for a single eyeshadow now? :/ I'd end up depotting it to put in one of my pro palettes, just seems like such a high price for one shadow that is probably similar to something I already own or will end up owning at some point ya know :/ I'll check it out on counter to see if I have a dupe, at these prices my days of blindly ordering from Mac are coming to an end!

It says £40 at the side, but when you click on the colours, they're only £20. (Only

Strangely, if you click on the colour swatches from within the 'collection' page it shows £20 on the little pop-up despite saying £40 alongside it, but if you click on the 'lipsticks' link from the 'collection' page, then click on those larger swatches, it still shows as £40.
I managed to get my order in correctly
I might have bought the mystery powder as well if it said it included a refill as well, like the American site does.

That's good. I can't decide if I want to fork out £80 for 4 lipsticks based on a few online swatches. I think I'll swing by Harrods when I'm next in London and swatch them myself. Maybe I can eliminate a couple.Strangely, if you click on the colour swatches from within the 'collection' page it shows £20 on the little pop-up despite saying £40 alongside it, but if you click on the 'lipsticks' link from the 'collection' page, then click on those larger swatches, it still shows as £40.

I have no choice but to rely on online swatches. I don't trust MAC's own swatches, though - they're computer-generated and usually quite different to the real thing. The last time I went to London was probably 21 years ago, while I was pregnant with my son.

Oh no, I don't trust Mac's own swatches either, but I'm also a bit wary of a certain blogger's swatches. I trust my own eyes most, hahaha!

I'm going to try and get Gunner from Nasty Gal at my local store today, pray they have it as it's my birthday! :bigstar:

Happy birthday! I wanted Gunner but kind of glad it sold out online as I wouldn't wear it and trying to be sensible. I am sad that Strike While Haute e/s has sold out I had it in my basket but hadn't checked out. Reddish eyeshadows make my eyes look so blue, heritage rouge pigment is complete holy grail for me and I am so glad we can get it any time now.I'm going to try and get Gunner from Nasty Gal at my local store today, pray they have it as it's my birthday!
I am very surprised Toxic Tale hasn't gone.
Bit off topic but i got the free sample of the new Benefit mascara with Elle and it's horrendous. Makes your lashes feel like they are coated in some weird kind of rubbery sticky substance though the initial look is good, quite lengthening, but after a while your lashes start to stick together of their own accord without rubbing your eyes or anything and it just looks a mess. Mascaras are a personal thing though so would be interested to know if anyone else had tried it.

I don't think it's off topic at all. People have been raving about the new mascara, and I was wanting to try it, but I wouldn't want to pay full price then find I didn't like it, so I was thinking of trying to get hold of a copy of Elle to get the free sample. The magazine will probably be sold out by the time I manage to get into town.
