i was eyeing the MSFs before but i already have 5 MSFs and barely use them so nothing for me

The eyeshadow and blush palettes cost $12.00! I hope that this helps.

What is this lurking we speak of

Yeah, I didn't introduce myself either - spies don't do that

I just yabbered right away...jumped right into the comedy routine. *snicker*

Geesh...me a lack of anything to say...dh only wishes

I'm waiting for more swatches/comments before I make my final decision.

I keep refreshing the MAC page hoping BBR will be up today... Am I wasting time? Will it pretty much for sure be up tomorrow?

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

I'm aggravated yet again... today I thought, why not make the hour drive to the Macy's counter because I want BBR really bad, and don't want to wait until sometime next week having it shipped from MAC. I also want to see it in person to maybe cut my list a little. So I called, and the lady at another counter said there aren't any MAC MA's at the counter, they're in the stock room doing inventory. ??? So I'm guessing that means they are getting ready to release BBR tomorrow instead of today... I can't imagine them releasing it today, and they're all in the stockroom. Damn. Nothing is going my way lately. I'm seriously thinking of forgetting about BBR and spending all of that money on the 25% sale.

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

Hm, I'm pretty new to MSF's.. Whats a good brush for them? Do I just apply them like i would a blush or bronzer? (I'm feeling so clueless!)

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

I just called my counter and BBR is launching today!!!

I have an appointment today to play with the colors. Does this cost anything or do you tip?? I am planning on buying almost everything with some backups. Is this all the expect that you buy something? PLMK. Thanks!!

Actually I called them and said "do u guys do price matching" because MAC is having a sale and I would rather go through Nordies...and the lady was like yes some people already called and we know about this and my supervisor said to honor the 25% off. So I told her everything I wanted from BBR and it was honored.

Maybe you should try again...i want everyone to get 25% off BBR =)

I like to use my 168 to apply. I apply wherever I want a nice highlight.

OMG! Thanks Tish!! If I could push the Thank You button 10 times I would!!!! I think I've narrowed down my MSF's to Brunette and Redhead..I already have Petticoat so no need for Blonde then

I plan on skipping the 165 !! I had always planned on getting live and dye and soft wave...sounds like soft wave will be a nice nude color!!! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!
