Thanks for letting us know. I hope CS is right this time.

That's my question too.

I'm thrilled that the Pro products are on the regular site - saves me trips to the Pro store. It's a nice walk in the summer but a cold, slushy PITA during winter months.

They may still maintain a separate Pro site for a time, but that sounds like a redundancy to me now that the same stock is sold on both. It would make more sense from a long-term perspective to have a single site with a Pro login that leads to whatever other features/pages are only available to that audience.

Perhaps this is the beginning of an evolution towards one launch and two price points. I can hope!

MAC has pulled late releases on Pros in the past. I believe Mac Me Over and/or Cindy Sherman was late too. Let's hope for the best.

I was under the impression that the collection would be available at Pro stores today. Did anybody purchase at a Pro store today?

I'll be going this afternoon to check it out.

I thought I'd be tearing out my "real" hair by the roots today. Ordering Glamour Daze stuff and Sephora F&F 20% off. Instead nothings online for either and who knows if it will be. Oh well gotta have faith.

Waiting. Stalking. Waiting. Stalking. Come on MAC. I want to order already!!!!

So PRO products are available online now!! Makes me want to skip this. I wonder if it's a perm thing or just for a little while.

Two more weeks for me.

Plenty of time to change my list for the umpteenth time.

off topic: I finally found some (amazing!) swatches of the new Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte lipsticks, I thought I'd share these, because they look gorgeous. I'm sure some of you will love the red and the plum shade. Not that I'm trying to enable anybody.

LOL. That's what they had before. Funny thing is that they just redesigned the Pro site to include a Pro products only section. I believe it was a few months ago (there should be a post somewhere). That back-and-forth business is quite annoying. Does the regular site have a Pro products section as well? Or do you have to search for Pro items among the regular products?

I'm confused. Why do they need to separate it? Everyone was always able to buy pro products right? The only difference would be in price as to whether you have a Pro discount or not. Prior to putting the pro products on the regular site, if you wanted a Pro product you'd have to go to a Pro store or call to order directly. I'm guessing if they decide to have one site they'll include a spot for those with a Pro discount to include their pro membership number. I just like the fact that I don't have to call anymore. I don't have a Pro store near me so if I ever needed anything Pro I'd just call. But now it's at my fingertips which I find a whole lot easier. And sadly, a whole lot more tempting too. LOL.

Some of the PRO products are just sprinkled in with regular items like the lipsticks and there's no designation marking them as PRO. Other items have their own page listed under a specific category. Like Lip Mixes is listed under the Lipstick category on the Lips page.

That's the problem! My self-control is disappearing into thin air. Or rather MAC is knocking the self-control out of me by hitting us with collection after non-stop collection.

I believe they are among the regular products.

No, she was quite busy so I didn't want to bother her with more questions!

The sets don't release at pro until next week anyway.
