Sun centered, pop circle, cool eyes and I might get a few richmetal highlighters. I might be working their event. I'll know the week of.

I'm exactly the opposite. I ended up pre-ordering less than I intended to, especially since the MA who took my order was extremely rude.
I ordered Royal Flush, Gilded Green, and Circa Plum pigments and Pop Circle lipstick.

That sucks, too bad for me my favorite MA ever works at Nordstrom and when I go in he usually has the colors he knows I will like set aside...
damn enabler! I love him though.
I ordered 5 cool eyes, warm lips palette, sun centered, naked to the core (hopefully I can b2m for it), 5 advanced brushes-blue bag (kinda only for the 187), and the unexpected piece dark influence what a pretty purple!
The upside is that I have $40 in Nordstrom notes and it will be double or triple(?) points for my Nordstrom card

^The Nordstrom Notes make me want to give my parents the giant middle finger in that I would get the MOD card...
All the MA's for the most part at Nordie's are nice-a couple of them used to work at my store, they see me around, and I go there all the time so it makes things really fun. Plus many of them come and shop in my store...we're all like a huge family at my mall.
As far as I had heard, the Colour Forms stuff was definitely selling but it wasn't hotcakes like Heatherette was. I have a feeling the lipsticks and the brush sets will sell fast.

Singapore too! And our counters release it much earlier during mid-June, faster than Nordstrom.

I know mine wasn't saying anything like that. In fact, she was saying that I should pre-order now so to avoid running out on launch day. She also said that even if I don't pick it up right on the 18th (I'm actually out of town for that weekend), they will still have my order on hand even if they run out of stock....

I stopped by yesterday to get some things and the Colour Forms collection was already on display. I pre-ordered:
I saw the Royal Flush pigment but wasn't sure it was one I wanted to get because my MA said that you would need to mix it with something else to avoid the 'sickly' look around the eyes. I'm thinking it might be a little too bright for my NW35/C4 skin...She was generous enough to give me a sample of it so I will swatch it as soon as I can...
I also tried both powders and I have to say Sun Centered doesn't do anything for me....I think the powders are multi-purpose: can be used as a blush, highlighter, bronzer, depending on skin tone. She just swirled her 129 over the whole pan and applied it on my cheekbone and above my eye area.
I swatched the lipsticks (I wiped them off my hand before remembering to take a picture!! grr..) and I have to say only the Rose Go Round one is the only one that appeals...
- Red brush set
- Warm eyes palette
- Play Around Pink powder
- Rose Go Round l/s
- Circa Plum pigment

Yeah, I can't figure it out. That particular MAC counter at Nordies always seems to screw things up. The other Nordies suggested that I call the MAC manager & talk to her, because they didn't think it was right
I really wanted to get several of the Richmetal Highlighters.

I think you can pre-order online too...They won't ship it till the 18th so if waiting for a couple more days is okay then I suggest doing it that way instead...

I just called the Nordies again & they are trying to tell me that the single Lipsticks are NOT even part of the Nordstoms exclusive???? I talked with 2 diff. people at the MAC counter & they had NO clue about what was even in this collection??? And, they are still telling me that I cannot preorder the single lippies or the richmetal highlighters???

Yeah, I wanted to do that but I was going to B2M for the lippies - or can I not do that because its a Nordies exclusive?
It totally drove me nuts
She just kept telling me that there were no such lipsticks, only the palettes in the N. Exclusive

I work at Northgate. I don't think any of the current MA's worked at my particular one, just other stores around the area.
As far as I know, everything was up for preorder. Hell when I went to get my Neo Sci-Fi, the girl showed me the Colour Forms binder so that if I wanted to then, I could preorder.
I think some of the MA's might have been confused about the lipsticks, I know this weekend the counter at my mall was using a ton of freelancers and nothing against the freelancers, but sometimes people can just be misinformed or not be up to speed on everything.

when i went in to get something from neo-sci fi the MA was trying to get me to pre-order a brush set. lol. i ordered after i got my cool heat haul and saw everything in person. even some of the regular MA's are sometimes not up to date on every single thing. i feel so funny going in and knowing more than them sometimes even though i dont work there. lol. it's just a matter of being patient with them.
