Just looked at the MAC site again, and of the Ultimate Collection lipsticks only Audacious and Ravishingly Rich aren't yet sold out.

It says Sold Out rather than Out Of Stock; I thought this collection was supposed to be permanent? The whole collection is showing as Limited Edition.



Did anyone get the Mystery Powder? Do you get a refill included with it?

That's odd. Oh well, if it is LE, it's not the end of the world. Although I would've liked 4 lipsticks from it, I don't need them and saving £80 doesn't hurt either.

By the way, Red, Red, Red is up on Debenhams if anyone's interested.

Just tried MAC Chat. Lavinia tells me that you do get a refill with the Mystery Powder, and that they are aware it doesn't mention it on the site. They are going to be fixing that.

Did you ask whether the collection is really LE?

Should have done, but forgot, sorry.

That's okay. x

I've just applied Hot Sensation all over. I moisturised first and let it sit for a while, then applied the powder. The few small dry patches I have showed up, so I sprayed with Urban Decay All-nighter (would have used Fix Plus, but the UD was sitting on my desk), and it gives a subtle glow.

Has anyone tried using the Debenhams 10% off beauty code JM79, its doesn't seem to be working for me?!?!?!?

The Nars blush & contour palette is up on Space NK & Nars. Payday isn't for another fortnight, I hope it doesn't sell out!

I used it this morning but it won't work on mac items.

I went into town today and got my haul: Toxic Tale, Hot Sensation, and Strike While Haute. I also got Coppertone, although I shouldn't have, because I've been coveting it for ages.

My Mystery Powder arrived this morning (I used the free next day delivery and free sample code MACTREAT) and it does indeed have a refill with it. It doesn't feel as heavy as I thought it would - the Gareth Pugh Elude compact felt much heavier, as I recall. I don't have it to hand to compare.

Just as others have said, the back of the puff stuck to the mirror. The powder itself is very soft to the touch, and very finely milled. I haven't tried it out yet, though.

The free sample was a mini tube of False Lashes Extreme Black.

FYI: Most of the Ultimate lipsticks are back in stock on the Mac website!

Armani Eye tints are up on Harvey Nichols, 27 pounds

Has anyone got Night is Young from Red Red Red? There are a couple left in stock at various places, and I'm very tempted to get it, but I wondered if anyone had any opinions.

Just been to London and can confirm that Harrods do have the Ultimate collection. I tested Marque and Vogue en Violet, but decided not to get either. I ordered Femme de Luxe and Catharina from Mac on Friday and tested those as well, and I'm very happy with those two.

Also, Guerlain fans, both Harrods and Selfridges sell the new Poudre de Soie powder. It's like Cruel Gardenia, but more bronze than pink. Gorgeous and still light enough to be a highlighter. Got one, of course!

The Cinderella collection will be available in Harrods on 6.03 and everywhere else on 13.03.

I was just heading here to write the same thing!

I wonder if it is going to be at all counters or just freestanding MAC stores??

Probably at all counters, I think she would've mentioned it otherwise. What are you getting from the collection?

 

[Anitacska]

Is it just me that's completely uninterested in the Cinderella collection? Nothing appeals to me whatsoever. :dunno: It's all too pink and the glosses are practically colourless.

I'm just thinking back to Maleficent because that wasn't all counters. I'm after the eyeshadow palette & Royal Ball Lipstick. I'd love the Mystery Princess powder too but I'll see if funds permit. I want quite a few things from Pencilled In, Wash & Dry and MAC is Beauty so I need to budget!! What will you get from Cinderella?
