MAC for Marilyn

[hwdsprincess]

I think the color is very pretty so If I can't get the MM tube I will buy it anyways but I want to complete the set! :haha:

Me too, I got Japanese maple instead of pure zen when they came out so I know I like the color I was just hoping to complete my set if all fails all go w the reg still

I was able to get Pure Zen from a local counter near me! I can pick it up tomorrow. Everywhere else I tried before said no preorders, so I assumed the same thing for this extremely popular counter and never bothered to call them. I decided to go ahead and give it a shot figuring a had nothing to lose. I called earlier today and was shocked that they had Pure Zen in stock, and that they let me preorder it. I'm immediately reminded of the old ass-u-me saying. :sigh:

Lucky! Don't you just love when you underestimate things and BAM they're there lol I'm hoping I can get it Thursday at my local Macy's and that no one cares for that one so I can get it lol

I was going to get Pure Zen later, but then decided I wanted to complete the set. But now I'm wondering if there may be a difference in the Cremesheen+Pearl and Marilyn Monroe versions because the swatches on the website are very different. The Marilyn Monroe Pure Zen appears to be a lot darker. I'm swatching both tomorrow at the store just to see.

If you decide your CIS is not for you I'd be willing to take it off your hands.

I'll keep you posted! I'll probably have to use it a couple of times before I'm sure - but I'll make sure to only use a clean lip brush if I do!

If they have extras do you mind grabbing me one? I'm so nervous I won't be able to get mine

I can do that if they have extras. Just PM me your mailing address. Do you mind waiting a week or so to get it? And did you want to try to see if you can get it at your Macy's first before I try to get one for you?

My mom is going to the store during her lunch hour to pick up my stuff. Originally I was just going to get DA and FM BP but now I've added LG to my list. I hope i can get everything!

Just seen this on Twitter from TiffanyD: Soooo excited about my MAC Marilyn Monroe goodies!!! Blog post coming very soon do you guys want to see a first impressions video??

Little bit late for that considering other than Dillards in the US the collection is sold out everywhere.

I have to admit I really hate it when people get items sent to them on YouTube and they wait until the collection is released/sold out before they do their video on their opinion etc. What good is it to anyone when they can't get their hands on it? Especially when the whole point of them getting things from companies is generally to advertise it. :/

Do you think she got them free or she bought them? I am surprised she wouldn't have received them sooner. What is the point?

Well actually quantum teleportation is already possible. It's not possible to teleport information though. I hope they can hurry up an bring us the 'real' teleportation haha although I doubt that it will be here in time for us to use.

I didn't know that. Awesome!

So, its a given all the lippies sold out super fast and anyone who didn't stalk, pre-order, or sell their soul to a kind SA to hold product for them was probably left in the lurch. Is anyone loving their powder products?

I have a BP, a blush, and 2 e/s on the way...

ME!

I love the BP. I'm pale and I'm totally digging it. It is lovely as a setting powder for me. (Yup...*that* pale) I've been trying to get a BU of it, but I decided to just be content with the one I was able to get. I absolutely love the eye shadows! (I got all 4) I know the colors aren't anything super unique but the texture and the color payoff are very lovely. Out of the four my favorites are Preferred Blonde and Showgirl. I was lucky enough to be able to get backups of those and I'm very happy! I am a little disappointed that I've come up empty handed on the blushes, but someone here said that maybe Supercontinental was a close dupe for Legendary.

Please let us know how they compare. I have the C & P ls already, so I passed on the MM. If they are different, however, I may want the MM one as well.

Yeah I assumed they get them for free to review them but in this case it's pointless. Her review isn't going to sell any more products if they're all already gone

I don't know about her but most bloggers/youtubers write a disclaimer stating whether they bought the products or they were sent to them. I assume that somewhere under the video she will state that.

I agree though, if she did get them for free it's a bit pointless to do a review about them so late.

And the usa and Canadian dollars are not even far off

Yup.. :/

Found this, she's wearing Deeply Adored.

Thought I was going to get my MAC box today, but I didn't. I'm so bummed. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. I want to wear LG on Saturday when I go out.
