I went to Spring Color Forecast on launch day around noon and no one was really in the store. No one was looking at the products. While I swatched items, 1 woman came in and tried 2 glosses and asked my opinion and then checked out. So I think you are safe.

This is great news! I ran downtown after work to get a backup and I thought about getting 1 for a CP but I ended up getting a few more items and was low on $. I was feeling a little guilty. I'm glad people can order now and not have to stay up all night.

I was at MAC today and one of the MA's said that Firecracker was a repromote from like 2004?? Does she mean Firespot or one of the others from awhile back? I got my first MAC shadows in 2005 so I don't know much about before then but I was just curious...

The SA was talking about Firespot. I don't think it is a dupe. I passed on it but have since regretted it. I know it was a really bright orangey color. I think Firecracker is more pink.
I went to the Pro store yesterday but they were closed. I thought I had gone there on a Sunday before. I guess not. I walked down the street and went to the regular Mac store. No TTB collection there. I was annoyed though. I kept going back and forth about whether to get another ML and whether I should just order online. I didn't think I could stay up late. I was also thinking about how many coral peach blushes I have. I had it on yesterday and I thought, "Is Marine Life really that special?" I thought this as I looked in my dark bathroom mirror. Pretty but the end all? Then I went to the window. Wow! Not to toot my own horn but beautiful! I promptly left and made my way to the store. It turned out to be a waste but I was ready to go this afternoon.
I like to go to the Pro store sometimes because no one in there pays any attention to the new collections. Sometimes they don't even have them in a display, just on the counter. Well, I ended up getting shimmermoss and humid. I'm just loving the pop of bright color on my lids so I thought maybe shimmer moss might work. The SA asked if I wanted a pan. I was thinking of depotting stuff but honestly I don't have time right now and I was hoping to start with my neutrals or browns. I have about a billion (joking) beigey/gold shimmer colors. So I told him to just give my the regular ones. Well, that is what he did. He gave me the black pots. When I told him I wanted the green pots, he didn't know what I was talking about. He asked another SA and he looked puzzled too. He then looked at the To the Beach display and lifted up the the eyeshadows and said "Oh yeah, these are in the To the Beach collection." Huh? They didn't really know about the new collection.
The SA told me that they were out of Marine Life and a few other things on my list (they had given me a piece of paper to write what I wanted.) The SA then had another SA ring me up so I asked her what was out of stock just to make sure. She tells me she will check for Marine Life because she thinks she saw it. Well lo and behold she had it!
I also bought Float On By. It looked pretty. Opulash mascara and the 2 new darker Naked pigments -Naked Dark and Naked Deep Dark. Thanks Shontay! I was going to get Copperbeam pigment as they were out the last time I was there but I thought I should wait. They were out of Rubenesque and Indianwood paint pot.
