I wasn't all that happy when I went to Discover Mills either on top of the sucky inventory the girls there seemed really snobbish... however you should have tried Eversun, it's a peachy-apricot color that looks good on our skintone ( I'm NC50 SFF too!) I'm in love with it and sooo need to get down there to get me another!! I think you'd really like it though...try it next time.

Going to Dawsonville tomorrow. I have to get my Mac spending under control, but it sssooooo hard to do! There's nothing like a bag full of new makeup.

Has anyone been there recently? I want to head over there this week

Basically updating again what ssudiva said, except now there are also Studio Sculpt foundations in NW40, NW30, and one other color. MSF in Deep Dark ( yipee!). Light, and Light Flush. they're kinda lacking in the lippie and brush department, but there are hella brush sets and holiday colections.

I agree about the girls at the CCO in Discover Mills..there is one girl who just looks at me like I'm crazy when I'm doing my litle MAC hauls - Grr.

Yup! I went Saturday morning around 11am. The word is apparently out, they were fielding a lot of calls about it. I kinda felt bad for the ladies that work there. I was talking to them, and they're Clinique fans, so they don't get the fuss over people badgering them about all the MAC stuff. I counted at least 5 calls about the Studio Sculpt when I was there, LOL

Hey everyone! I went to the N. GA Premium Outlet CCO yesterday, and I just wanted to give a rundown of what I saw there... This is not what I bought, but what I saw (& remember). I hope this helps...

Paint Pots:
-Fresco Rose
-Rubanesque
-Soft Ochre
-Greenstroke
-Indianwood

Brow Sets
The ones that slide out with two colors (one for brow definition, one for highight)...they had 4 different colors

Fluidline
I don't know the names, but they had the silver, purple, blue, green...maybe some more


Concealer:
-only NW or NC50 (can't remember which) in Studio Finish
-A lot of shades in the Select Moisture Cover (tube w/wand)

Lippies:
-almost all Tendertones
-lots of tinted lip conditioners (in stick form)
-lots of lipstick
-lots of slimshines

Foundation:
-Studio Sculpt in NC25, NC40, & NC42 or 45
-Studio Fix Fluid in lotta shades
-Mineralized Satin Finish in lotta shades
-Studio Tech in lotta shades

Eyeshadow:
Lots of Starflash
-TALENT POOL
-TOP HAT
-SUNSET B.
-BOLD & BRAZEN
-GRAND ENTRANCE
-GLAMOUR CHECK
-MINK & SABLE
-DREAMMAKER
-GO
4 or 5 different Eyeshadow duos that slide out (dunno what they're called)
Lot of the mineralized eye shadows that have 3 stripes (glitter in the middle)

Blush
HUGE selection, these are a few I could remember
Mineralized
-Dainty
-Pleasantry
-Nuance

Beauty Powder
-Fleur Power
-Both Neo Sci Fi's
Way to many to name

They had a lot of skincare stuff in old packaging
-Fix+
-Quick Eye repair (the stuff with caffeine in it for poffiness)
-Green Gel Cleanser
-Blot Film


That's all I can really remember.

**PLEASE NOTE**: the ladies that work there are somewhat rude. If you spend more than 10 minutes in there, they look at you like you're a thief, and they boldly ask you if you're selling things on Ebay, stating that they're not allowed to sell to you if you are. THE NERVE!! After my friend & I told them that we were just addicted to the line of products & that's why we know/buy so much, they started to be nice to us, but we felt like the damage had already been done.

Also, they don't have samples out of everything they carry (esp paint pots, sadesticks, etc). If there's a particular color/shade of something you want, ask them to check the stock. Again, they'll be rude to you b/c they act as if you're bothering them (when they're really just doing their job!)...but at least you'll get the color you want!!

BOTTOM LINE...
If you're in the Atlanta area, it's worth the exta 1-2 hours (depending on where you live) to check this place out. The selection is probably triple that of the Discover Mills CCO in Lawrenceville.

Happy Shopping

Do you happen to remember what shades of Studio Sculpt that had left? Any other goodies?!

I'm planning on hitting the store tuesday

 

[nebbish]

OMG I haven't had a chance to hit Discover Mills, but I went to the other place in January. I thought I'd died & gone to heaven! lol
I got an eyeshadow [Climate Blue], a LiquidLast liner in a looovely purple shade, and Select CoverUp concealer in NC15... I think I spent thirty bucks.

I'm not sure if you've already been or not...I'm guessing I'm too late. But anyway, i went today (Fri. March 27th) & they had NW40 & NC40....more of the NC40

 

[BrowneyedBeauty]

Anyone been recently? I'll be up that way this weekend!

 

[driz69]

If anybody missed out on the cult of cherry stuff like the quads. They have them and red she said and tons of other stuff at the CCO in Dawsonville

 

[dethkloth]

I went today! They had a quite a few lipglasses (I got Chance Encounter), Racy 3D lipglass, and one lipvarnish but I forgot

I bought NC55 Spf 15 foundation, and Blue Peep Fluidline. Golden Olive pigment is there in addition to a few other ones, as well as a few mattene shadows. There was even a Fafi powder. I saw some Fix+, a few paints, glitter liners and duos. There was really a lot of stuff and everyone was very friendly to me.

Also, check out the Bobbi Brown section. My god, I am so glad they have a spending limit there because I would have gone nuts.

 

[Arwai]

Okay I'm trying to decide which location to go too. The Discover Mills Mall one is about 40 mins way, and the North Georgia Premium Outlet is about an hour away. I'm so excited! Any updates on what the locations have?

 

[minni4bebe]

Dawsonville has a generally bigger selection but I went to Discover Mills today and they had a ton more shadows than Dawsonville.
