I don't see why not?.. If they have it and you can get free shipping. I'm going to pick mine up in store tomorrow. I called to confirm and she said they only got 2 of one of the brushes.. I was like WTF. I think I might have to call in sick tomorrow and get there at 10 when they open.

Now I know this has been asked before....but whats the difference between the 217 and the 226? Is the 226 just smaller and more...precise?[/quote]


Exactly! Just a little more compact to really get in there and route out the crease

I hate mythology, it just falls off my face it is so chunky, but french cuff....heaven! So smoooooth and pretty, ahhhhh Can u describe redhead at all? Aaaaand, is strawberry blonde really bold or dark or intense, or can it be just a really pretty not too intense lipglass (I hate bold lips on myself u guys know that)

Redhead- (n.) a spitfire with a wicked temper and fiery tongue

Seriously, I think the redhead collection can fit just about anyone, it is all peachy glowy rosy loveliness, it doesn't get any better. Really.

Strawberry Blonde was a vivid intense pink that was gorgeous, but not for me. I don't like intense lippies either (calls attention to that other chin I can't stand

) I think it might be able to be subtled though maybe with a nude pencil under?

I order online at Nordies and choice the Store Pick-up option to avoid paying shipping if it is under the limit. That way I can pay for it and just swing by Nordies and pick it up with no shipping charges

They don't want you benefiting too much.

As of closing this afternoon, $71.82 CAD = $60 USD, and that's down from yesterday.

I'm super cool and follow the dollar...

I'm tempted to call in sick to work tomorrow because... I'm sick. But a trip to MAC with some fresh air would be good for me, right?

I'm torn, though, because calling in sick means less money for me.

Well, I'd have to order it from SOMEWHERE anyways, so might as well... I hope it gets here Tuesday! Unfortunately their shipping isn't like MAC's... $5 upgrad to 2 day and $10 to overnight. There's is $15 and $25, hell no!

You know you spent a lot when the IL tax rate is 6.25% and tax alone was almost $22.

winthrop-no, a printout won't work for macy's. nordstrom mac is owned by nordstrom, so they have to follow nordie's policy, whereas macy's doesn't own mac. we are completely separate. we have our own rules and there is no price matching. sorry love.

p.s. i'm gonna chat as long as i can. i just took some nice nighttime drugs to make me feel better. so until the sleepy stuff kicks in, i'm all yours (everyones)!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

oh, and we are launching this tmrw. yay!

Hey Erine,are you feeling any better I hope?

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Mmmm, nighttime drugs. Does anyone else get stoned off daytime cold pills, or is that just me?

Also, for those with ads reappearing... if you use adblock in firefox you can get rid of ads everywhere...

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

aww, thanks for asking! unfortunately, i'm not. i have almost completely lost my voice, i'm hacking up some nasty shit, and to make matters worse, i slipped and fell on the ice at 1:00 this morning. i wanted to listen to my ipod while i was in the shower, and realized i forgot my ipod in my car. so i went out to get it and fell on the ice. landed on my left side.

so now i'm coughing, sneezing, all stuffy, itchy eared, and can't move or put any weight on my left arm. i'm a hot mess i tell ya! but i'm still here (until my drugs kick in that is!).

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

^^^oh we shall see on that one. i've got daytime ones for tmrw at work. i was stoned off pain meds today cause of my arm and my chest (from coughing so hard). so all is good. when you've got drugs, you don't give a shit about anything!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

TX sales tax is 8.25% booooOO.

Erine feel better! Don't take too much medicine.

I don't know if I am gonna be able to make it out to MAC till Friday night. I hope that the things that I want don't sell out too quickly. I really want the 226 brush and Redhead MSF.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Those drugs will help ya.Hopeully when you wake up you'll feel a lil better.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Mmmm brushes, I lovvee brushes!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

I'm sorry, Erine. However, I will say the best thing of being about being sick is the NyQuil. I love NyQuil.

So, which l/s would you recommend for a slightly warm pink? I need to cut down somewhere. So, I'm trying to limit to one.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Erine Im sorry ur sick and u fell!

Once, I was walking to school with my sister (well to the bus stop...we were both inhigh school) and there was some black ice, and she was careful not to step on it, but I didnt even notice it...I feel so hard and busted my ass, and she turned around and saw me get up. When we got to the bus stop she told EVERYBODY lol..it was actually pretty funny.

Anywho. This is my new list:
*100 strokes
*Flip
*Knight
*Strawberry Blonde
*Red Devil
*Marquise D
*Alls fair
*Blow Dry
*Redhead MSF

B2M:
*B Babe
*Live and Dye
*Henna
*Femme fi (I really dont have enough empties for those but hey)

Erine how do you feel about Chignon l/s? Is it really intense or just blah..should I skip it? Is Alls Fair worth getting? And is strawberry blonde too intense for someone who hates bold lips? AND..should I definetly get the 226, even if I just bought the 217?

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

It's a wrap.. I'm definitely calling in sick.. that way I can come home and play with my makeup all day.. muhahaha...

Yeah.. I've got $198 in my cart and I only have the brushes and all 3 MSF.. (I wanted to do an estimate).. I've got $60 nordstrom notes so that helps. I usually order my MAC from bloomies.. I'm in Michigan and we don't have a bloomies.. and its always tax free and $5 shipping..

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Erine I hope that you feel better as well. Tax in Washington is 9% which totally sucks!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

So since I'm still kind of a newbie around here, does everyone always get this excited for new collections..or is this one just really great?
