MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Can anyone tell me if this is normal for a backordered item...
My order status still says PENDING, in my order I received 7 of 9 things, but the 2 remaining items on the itemized page still have a status of BACKORDERED, but they both have a UPS tracking number which is the same as the tracking number for the items I have already received. Is that normal for backordered items? Shouldn't they not have a tracking number under them? And shouldn't my order status have change from Pending to processing or shipped by now? ANd shouldn't those last 2 things not say backordered anymore? Ack, I'm confused!

EDIT...I went ahead & called & basically they said its normal for the info to say what its saying. So if anyone is wondering & your order says that, all is good & your stuff will go out today or Monday

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

The site always lags. Mine said backorder...but they had arrive. It's best to call because the site status does not usually reflect actual shipping status
And, yes the backordered items will have the same ship/tracking # regardless

I just got Hollywood Nights yesterday, and I agree that the texture of this collection is even better than the normal lipstick. It's so smooth, and shiny on the lips!

Also, I'm NW15 and the contrast is awesome, so all you pale girlies should at least try it on if you can.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

FYI: I have Apex as well as Sock hop. I tried Apex last night with Lollipop loving and it is really too sheer to make the sparkles shine more. I really prefer applying Sock hop first, followed by Lollipop Loving. Sockhop is a cream, so it's got more pigment and gives Lollipop Loving more omph that way. Also you're not burying Lollipop Loving and it's lovely sparkles with lip gloss this way.

If you want to use a lip liner before Lollipop Loving, my SA suggested Lure. It does bring out the coral tones more. I am probably going to go back and pick it up for this purpose.

I just have to say that even though I like Sock Hop with Lollipop Loving, I like Starlet Kiss with LL even more! Makes such a GREAT summer combo!

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Hmm so apparently SOMEONE in Canada is doing deliveries today haha, I got a few brushes that I ordered from ebay (I'm angry though because they're fake MAC brushes

) But it gives me hope that maybe I might get my stuff today. Unfortunately I didn't see who dropped off the item at my door.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Does anyone know if Fleshpot is similar to 2N? Is Fleshpot more towards white than beige? Thanks!

Is Sugar Trance more pinky+peachy than Bonus Beat.Sorry if im wrong

Bonus Beat is a creamier beige and Sugar Trance (my favourite) is more of a sheer warm pink/peach sparkle. They're very different.

Fleshpot is more beige. They are almost identical in color tone however 2N is the very sheer version & a tad lighter & Fleshpot is opaque

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I forgot to mention to those who are B2M'ing at The Bay... they took away my lipstick box, of course.

Also, I was trying the pencils and the MA offered to sharpen them and she had trouble with the glitter end. They were so soft. I must have touched something, because I had glitter everywhere. Even after I got home, I saw bits of glitter on the sleeve of my coat. I'm staying as far away from those pencils as I can.

The image of that in my mind = a lipgloss crazed Homer

Yikes, I don't know! I think they'd be open on Saturday, just not today. If you do go to the pro store, Heatherette's on the right hand side when you walk in (unless they change things). I must've looked slightly insane bobbing my head around the main display looking for it, lol.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I don't have snob, but unless it's a very blue-based pink, I'd say no.

I have Myth and so I was going to pass on Fleshpot, but one of my girlfriends who is a Mac MA (or rather, was, she's freelance now but mostly uses MAC) says that Fleshpot is WAY lighter, so I might have to go back for it . . . hmmmm . . .

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I'm really happy for you gals that got your backordered package....but I want to whine and say I haven't gotten mine yet! LOL. All this talk and I have nothing to play with.

This has probably been answered somewhere but, how different is Dazzleray and Jardin Aires? I have Dazzleray, so is it worth getting Jardin Aires?

Thanks.

On NC30 skin

You can't see it well, but fleshpot is more pink and myth is more beige.

Myth is light on me compared to Fleshpot.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I was given a slight hassle for my b2mac at the Dillard's counter, but they went ahead and let me have my 2 lipsticks. I'm so happy with this collection.
