MAC Give me Liberty of London Discussion

[purrtykitty]

Ahh, yeah I'm all for instant gratification, too. I always worry when I ship overseas since there's no tracking.

 

[LisaOrestea]

If it was just the one item then I would get it, but there are a couple of other things and with combined shipping it ends up saving me quite a lot

I have ordered most of my makeup from overseas, and never had anything get lost in the post (touch wood ).

I will admit though, I was horribly tempted to just go ahead and buy it today, but im on a student budget haha.

you have more restraint than me girl! good on ya! hehe

[FONT=Verdana,Arial,Helvetica]Hey,I moved to a new town! And Of course I went to the nearest MAC! They still have Blue India?!?!? Wow, I was way shocked. If anyone needs a CP, PM for more info! Feedback: Marq2 on MUA[/FONT]

i suppose, the few times ive got something from over in the states it has ended up only costing about 50p less than if i bought it in the uk.. i'm a glutton for instant gratification too, i cant wait like 2 weeks for my lipstick, i want it now!

i've never had anything lost either, but there's always a first! it can happen, and i'd be sooo pissed if i couldnt replace it[/quote]

i've bought loads from teh states and nothing has ever got lost. but i bought something from a girl in the uk on here and that got lost!!

bloody royal mail!

 

[LisaOrestea]

^ very fair point. Royal Mail is pretty appauling. My band have sent merch out standard postage before and its taken 2 weeks to get there :| which is stupid considering how little england is in the grand scheme of things.

but yeah, I just bought blooming lovely plus another lipstick on here, paid $25 (inc. postage) which works out at about £16. So £8 per item, instead of the £12.50 I would pay in shops

definate win!

I broke my lipstick no buy today.

I was sad because some drugstore nail polishes were still sold out so I went to the MAC counter on my way to the subway. They had a GMLOL display and I just had to take a closer look at the collection in person.

I already got Birds&Berries, Bough Grey, Prim&Proper, Shell Pearl and two Blue India in the mail so it was the first time that I saw the display in front of me. I was surprised that all lipsticks were still available.. even Blooming Lovely.

Because I have Lavender Whip I don't really need Blooming Lovely but Peachstock and Ever Hip looked so pretty. I tried both on and loved both.

Lucky me it was also the last Ever Hip they had.

I do hope that I maybe can get Peachstock from the Pro store at some point (is it d/c? its still on the pro site) so I had to get Ever Hip. I am in love.

 

[Miss QQ]

Glad you got the last Ever Hip!

What a long lipstick no buy!

You bought quite a number of things from GMLOL too.

Enjoy!

I love this collection!

I'm thinking of picking up EA but I think I will be fine without it. I shall resist.

 

[GlamQueen21]

Today I get Shell Pearl BP in the mail! I'm still pondering if I should get EA and PHS... I should be done with this collection a long time ago lol

Enjoy it

At least you broke your no-buy for a very nice colour in great packaging

 

[Miss QQ]

PHS is very beautiful. It is like a nude but a little pinky coral so it brightens up the face. Nude can be too pale sometimes. As for EA, I'm lemming it too!

 

[GlamQueen21]

^I'm a sucker for pinky corals!! Now I'm so going to order it today as well as for English Accents!!

 

[LMD84]

got my goodies! well firstly i love the packaging. i think the beauty powder compact is beautiful! shell pearl is a lovely colour. haven't tried it on my cheeks yet because i'm at work. however i think it will make the perfect topper to peachy blushers. blooming lovely is a gorgous colour however i'm not sure what 'eye' look to pair with it! birds and berries is instant love! as i expected to, and dames desire is also very pretty! overall i'm happy with my goodies!

 

[Pinky & Poodle]

LMD, I'm pretty sure we ordered the same day, did you get an email from Mac saying when they shipped your goods?
I haven't, and that worries me a bit

 

[PinkBasset]

Hey beauties I'm back from MAC PRO!! Whoah that was some trip I tell ya! I got my stuff from this collection (and as you may guess, couple more items as well...

):

- Shell Pearl
- Prim&Proper
- Blue India
- Brids & Berries
- Bough Grey
- Dames Desire (this was not on my list, but somehow it came home with me?

)
- English Accents
- Frankly Fresh

Dirty Plum was so pretty in person! It has the most beautiful sparkle to it. I'm afraid though it wouldn't look great on my very pale skin, but on darker skin tones this is the bomb! So so pretty!

I have to do a look with my new goodies tomorrow!
