I know, right!? If anything they should have kept the inventory for themselves, stores and online, and not disbursed them to the department stores. And then both Macys and Nordies send the opposite item that people ordered! They definitely effed up on this collection. They're putting out far too many collections too often. Yes, it's obviously not hurting their sales any, but it's gonna leave a bad taste in peoples mouths when they can't get something they want. And not because it's sold out, but because it was never available in the first place!
Exactly! They know loyal customers will still buy no matter what, but at least take care of home first.. i.e. the website and then distribute wherever you want. That's not too much to ask for. Supply and demand is something else I tell ya!

Wow...very stunning...I wouldn't have thought to pair those up together (not that I own Zestful).
...you should get it.

[COLOR=0000FF]:agree:  They create the demand by limiting the supply.  That strategy may be working for their bottom line but loyal MAC followers are growing tired of it, it seems.  Add to that the aforementioned issues and you have a recipe for people to defect to other brands. [/COLOR]
And you are totally right! Darn economics!

Given that MAC Canada also reversed Def Def and STF shipments, I wonder if there's a UPC code problem on the boxes; it's too widespread to be a coincidence.

I'm trying to cut down my list but I don't know how! So far it stands as


  1. The 2 non-bronzey EDSFs
  2. All of the EDES (maybe skip DB and ES?)
  3. Bareness, Flaming Chic and At Dusk EDBs

We also get Fashion Sets, Baking Beauties and Temperature Rising, plus the Chanel Summer collection next month in the UK

AND Art of the Eye and Nudes & Metallics. It's insane. My list is almost the same as yours. Only difference is that I'll almost certainly skip ES, and Smokey Mauve is on my maybe list as well as DB.

I'm skipping N&M, but completely forgot about AOTE! We haven't had anything new for 2 months since Archie's in February, so getting hit with everything at once is a killer!

Did anyone purchase the brushes that came along with this collection? I love my blush (flaming chic) but everyone brush I own does not pick up the color to well. Any suggestions?

Well I got my replacement order from Macy's today! No fingerprints.

They messed up and sent STF when they told me that that one was OOS, so I was going to get a replacement of Double Def and Def. Def. Instead I got STF and Double Def.

Luckily I ordered all 3 from Nordstroms as well, so I'll still have the third one.

I'm excited to finally get to use them though!

i picked up the eyeshadow brush this time around, and the face brush the first time it came out. i have used the eyeshadow brush yet, but i find the face brush is better than the other face brush (bronzer brush, i think the 167?) i tried at picking up and depositing colour without eating the product excessively. it works well with both the blush and the edsf. hope that helps!

I had the same issue and I read on here some where there is a waxy coating on them that keeps it from being able to give good color payoff so I wiped off the top later with a tissue and I swear it is perfect now and works with any brush
