Auburn Hills, MI Off 5th (Great Lakes Crossing)

Anyone know if they have any brushes? Preferably a 239? I reallyyy need some retail therapy, but don't have that much money so I'd like to stretch it out as much as possible so I was considering going to a CCO, but Birch Run is a bit far for me so I think I'd be stuck with either Great Lakes Crossing or a MAC counter right now. Is it actually worth going? Do they have basic eye shadows (Like Satin Taupe and Shroom?) there or no?

no, they don't have any basic brushes. they only have a random selection of le/discontinued brushes [large powder, eyebrow, concealer etc.]. they do have the set that i mentioned above with the 222, but it cost around $87 for all 4 + case.

they don't really have basic eye shadows either, last i checked. just le/discontinued ones. occasionally they get some permanent ones. i've seen romp, copperplate, carbon etc. but it's rare.

Hey Everyone,

So I went today and they have a lot of MAC products. There are so many lipsticks that I don't remember all the names. Also because they don't have the boxes out, so you have to look underneath for the name.

There are lots of pigments and eyeshadows including Fafi Quad 2.

They do have full size brushes besides the Saks brush set and SE sets. These brushes included, 134, 189, the fan brush, and some other ones. They definitely did NOT have the staples like 217, 239, 219, 109, 187, etc.

For blushes, there was pleasureful, harmony, taupe, and a whole bunch of other ones.

Sorry, my memory is quite bad after a 10 hr road trip. Hope this helps!
