I use the heat method myself with an old flat iron. Works like a charm

Hey SMMY, you are up and I have to share: go to youtube.com and search gold fever #1- you will love it

I saw your post in the Gold Fever thread and already laughed so hard, tea splurted from my nose. It's so bad, it's good, really. It reminds me of that video that an eighties star made about touring her home. It was making the rounds of youtube awhile back. The MAC guys must have taken a lesson from her video, so natural - not! I'll post a link later on if I can find it.

Hey! I'm flipping pancakes!

I've just cut out some things to buy mac. I haven't been out to the club,or out drinking. Plus i have picked up some extra hours at work. It's crazy I know, but at the current time, it makes me happy and its an addiction that is legal.

Thank you Adina for your lovely swatches & reviews!! I want about 8-9 of these babies now.

Kinda OT, but I have probably close to 100 e/s pots and I am so tempted to go on a depotting rampage so I can get all the Starflash shadows I want with B2M ... but ... I'm SCARED! What to do.... what to do... waste $150 that I prob shouldn't spend? Or risk ruining my babies? (I've never depotted before...)

I say go for it. Its soooo worth it! Once you do like 2 eyeshadows, you will be a pro! You have soooo many empties...you have to recycle them! Get us out of this recession girl

(I dont even think that made sense lol)

Specktra.net Try that depotting link..

I use the flat iron method though. Its sooooo easy. As long as you are cautious, you'll be fine. Start out with your least favorite shadows!

vanessa at nessasary makeup has posted swatches

Nessasarymakeup.com: MAC: Starflash Collection (Swatches)

 

[rbella]

My MAC store doesn't allow depotted pans for B2M. Hilly's thread made me aware of this. If I could B2M, I could seriously get almost everything from every collection. But, alas, I am out of cashola and Mr. Rbella said "Hell to the No" when I asked for more to buy makeup. Poop.

I called my local store just to see if stand alones were putting them out yet. I cannot wait to get my three after testing them out this week! The MA, one of my favs, told me that all the stores (stand alone and department stores) just got an email that said the Nordies that we selling early got in a ton of trouble and were asked to pull the items until next week on the official launch date. So, if your Nordies is selling...I'd run over quick before they pull them until next week.

Cannot wait to get my Smoke & Diamonds, Mink & Sable, and Top Hat!!!

 

[addictedtomac85]

Just wondering if anyone knows when they are going to release the collection on the MAC Pro website? I thought that they would have it on the Pro site if they have it in the Pro stores but they don't.

I'd say it depends on your store. Some sell out within hours, I swear, others, like mine, hold on to things for what seems like forever.
