MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion

[Ladyvirtuous]

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Wow, Fleshpot is sold out on the website.

I thought that was the worst lipstick in the collection.

Anyway, I am going to cave in and get another LL lippie and Sock Hop lipglass. I'm still contemplating if I should get another Hollywood Nights and Style Minx. What to do, what to do.......

Oh yea, and does the LL and Sock Hop look pink on your lips? I wore it yesterday and it looked pink and today I wore it and it look coral, like its supposed to.

So these stores won't have Heatherette until next week. I wish I had called first to make sure they had it out, because I didn't have enough time to go to the MAC store if I wanted to make my class this morning. Well...I decided I wanted Heatherette more, so I went anyway. I picked up: -both trios -Alpha Girl beauty powder (they didn't get Smooth Harmony for some reason) -Melrose Mood & Hollywood Nights lipsticks -Style Minx lipglass -all 4 liners -Perky paint pot (finally decided to get it) For a grand total of...$222.08. Ouch. Good thing my tax refund is coming soon! I was pretty disappointed in Lollipop Lovin' - when I swatched it on my hand I could barely see it on my skin. I tried it on and it was pretty much just shimmer on my lips. Pretty, but I wanted color. Sock Hop was pretty translucent on me too. I guess I was just hoping for a more opaque coral out of one of them. Oh well, less money to spend! I have pretty pigmented lips so I wasn't that surprised, after seeing the swatches here... Melrose Mood is very unique, and it'll be a challenge to make it work for me...it's definitely not a color I'm used to wearing. Hollywood Nights is now the brightest pink I own, and it looks so gorgeous with Style Minx. Even though I got both Fun N Sexy and Totally It from Fafi, they're nothing like these. Alpha Girl is my first beauty powder. I haven't played with it yet but it looks so pretty.

OMG!!!That is exactly what happened at my Macy's counter!My MA said 15 stores' shipments were lost in the region and it was reordered-still waiting for it to come in.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Horror story: I came home from school to find my Fleshpot lip stick box chewed up by my cute Yorkie, Simon. ;/

Note to self: Never leave my makeup on my bed. I love the dog, hate what he did to my Heatherette collection. ;(

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I ordered Melrose Mood online on Friday night, and I haven't received shipping or processing info on it yet. I'm worried because a few hours after I ordered it said it was sold out. I'm really afraid I won't get it now!

I have Utterly Frivolous from Fafi...I KNOW they are two totally diff. colors but UF is bright on me. I just really want a hot bright lip to go with my great tan in the summer.....God did any NC42's or C4's buy hollywood nights?????????

I am NC42, and I am buying Hollywood Nights and Style Minx combo on Saturday. It can be very bold, but it is very easy to tone down as well! I love the fact it is not an unbearable bright color that look horrible on our skintone....it is a nice bright look for tan skin!

Count me as one of those lovers of bold lips!
I got good news today; my backups of Hollywood Nights and Style Minx, ordered before I ordered the "original" ones, shipped today! They should be here by the end of the week. Heaven knows when the originals will get here; they've shipped, so it will probably be soon.
Guess I'll spend the summer in fuchsia lips ...

i'm getting a little paranoid now because the last two times i ordered from MAC, the UPS guy rang my doorbell and just left my package on my doorstep. now i'm scared someone stole my package...IMO UPS is the worst delivery courier. if i don't get my package tmrw, i'll freak! aha. i placed my order at like 2:30pm so maybe that's why i haven't received it yet? what time did u place ur order??

As long as you received an order confirmation, you're probably okay.
It's been my experience that, as long as an item was available at the time you placed the order, you'll get it.
If you're really worried, and don't mind possibly ending up with two of the same item, Nordstrom: Designer Collections and Top Apparel, Shoe and Beauty Brands might still have it. They were a little behind mac.com getting the collection online.
Good luck!
Let us know how it all turns out. Most of us have been where you are.

yeah...maybe it's cuz i ordered later in the day when everyone else ordered in the morning

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Yah that might be true... I did order at 8:30 am that day but still, it shouldn't make such a big difference.

thanks.
luckily u were awake, cuz if u didn't hear the doorbell ur package would just be sitting outside without u even knowing

**EDIT**
the UPS man came like 5 minutes ago

i never knew they delivered this late. when i went to open the door, the UPS truck was already driving away...

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I guess I should prob sit tight for my MAC package ordered online...I wish us Cdns had more detailed info and tracking on the site. I love heatherette but its weird, i've gone back and wanted to get some more fafi (mostly paintpots).

My sucky UPS story: I guess the guy is used to just leaving the pkg at the backdoor (he usually comes around 3pm, and we're out of the house) but this term I've been home most of the day, and he just puts it at the back door with the little door sticky and doesn't even ring the doorbell. >< oh well at least my neighbourhood had a lot of old ppl, so they prob won't steal my mac.

Yea, it does change. One time it looked more pink & then later it looked more coral. Most of the time though it looks more shell pink
