Okay, I'm done with the whole refresh thing. I live chatted about the Strength blushes and s/he said "Brandy: I regret that these shades have sold out and will not be restocked. This collection will be launching at all North American MAC locations however. Strength is anticipated to launch on January 3rd in our retail locations." I called a MAC Pro (NYC) and they are doing a charge send. No free ship but at least I'll have a good day knowing they are on the way.

Take care and Merry Merry everyone!!

LOL. I think s/he didn't get the memo that the collection launches in store on 12/26.
Right? LOL-- ah, well. I had called MAC.com's CS earlier and they said it would be restocked too. I'll actually be fine even if they restock today--I'd rather know than to keep checking in. I had tried last night about an hour after Temptalia sent out her tweet and no luck. These blushes were promo'd at fashion week & I've had my eye on them for a while. I guess it will all get straightened out eventually.

I happened to be up at 1am and ordered Party Parrot. It still says pending when I logged into MAC this morning. I have to take my sister to MAC today. I might tell one of the ladies to put one on hold for me in case my order gets cancelled.

Off topic: What is up with My Thanks? It says that I have 198634051 thanks. That's just not possible.

HELP! I am on the verge of ordering Absolute Power but am on the fence. I am NC44 and i love ruby woo. For those who have had the chance to swatch the lipstick...is it orange based red or a blue based red?

I hope I get my things by this weekend! I didn't bother with the overnight shipping since the last time I chose that option, it took 4 days to get here, and it usually takes only 4 or 5 days from the day I place my order for me to get my things when I choose standard shipping. But I didn't get any oos or backorder notifications, so I'm thinking I'm getting all of my pretties! Can't wait!!!

I felt the same way but I felt skippers remorse setting in so I went ahead and ordered it. I'm gonna hold it until I see more swatches. I can always sell or send it back it if I don't like it.
