I don't have anything like it! lol. I decided to go with Sun Rush. I was kind of scared Pink Rebel would make me look pinkish. But, now I'm wondering if I made the right decision..hmm.
Thanks for helping

So, this is what I'm thinking...

I think (and maybe I'm just HOPING) that MAC will have some employees do a manual count on orders. Mine is on back order, maybe everyone's is. Anyone who's placed an order for a redonkulous amount of ML will get canceled...here's hoping!

And it's not like MAC couldn't say, "Hey guys, fire the lines back up, we grossly misunderestimated how many girls want their highlighters!"

Anything from gift/box sets to traincases to cosmetics to fragrances, skincare and accessories (bags, brushes, applicators, etc). There's one June 4th-6th. Fridays are always the best days to go. Everything good sells out within a few hours. Ex: Mac Face & Body foundation is $38.50 retail - its $10 at the sale. FULL SIZE too!

OMG!

I didn't know that! Is it in Toronto only or are there more in other parts of the country as well?



Off-topic: I just saw your sale and there are things (MSFs) I got interested in. But I don't know how to use PayPal.

Do you have an online store or something?

When I was wearing it yesterday and seeing the teal glitter I was thinking that you probably could dupe this by adding colours like Vellum or Transparent Teal glitter or Lark About pigment on top of your lipstick. The yellow-orange base in FOF is really sheer.

I wear Vellum on top of red lipsticks in the middle of the lip and I am sure the other pigments/glitter might work as well. No idea though how lip safe the options are.

I think they're only here (other than one they also have in New York). Its actually north of Toronto in Markham....

And I emailed you

Yes, it is. But some people mentioned that it does not really stay put there.

The collection is now officially visible on the Canadian site.

Hi everyone.

I'm a long time lurker but I had to finally post because To The Beach has arrived on the Canadian Mac site.

Everything is under their respective categories, the TTB page isn't active yet.

I know that Marine Life may be the most sought after item (I got one

), so it can be found under Face > Powders.

Now just have to wait for my order to arrive.

Thanks to all the lovely ladies here for info and swatches!

Now waiting is the hard part!

It's slightly insane how fast marine life sold out on the u.s. site. I mean, really, it sold out before it even launch. I'm also slightly disturbed by how many of them I already see listed on ebay.

But if anyone's still looking, I managed to order one through Nordstrom's website.

 

[lil_kismet]

It's 6:15am here and I just placed my order, and Marine Life is seemingly still available on the Canadian site.. keeping my fingers and toes crossed that it's not too late for me!

 

[sss215]

I want to see Hipness and Marine life on NW45/47 or NC50 skin. I just can't imagine them working on darker skin.

I know I was working during the two hours it was avail before it sold out. next thing i know it was gone! Crazy! Now the collection has actually launched on the site with marine life sold out from the start. I know there are some people out there totally baffled!!

Edit: what do you guys think will be the next thing to go??

It's only slightly disturbing? LOL They are already going for 60+ USD for something that hasn't even been selling for 24 hours. *sigh*

And yes, I'm doing the same thing everyone. If you need a cp for the SAME PRICE that I paid, hit me up. I understand trying to make a buck or two, but geez, this is highway robbery.

 

[BEA2LS]

is anything else sold out besides marine life on the us webpage? i do not have access to the email i gave them when i ordered and now i am paranoid something i bought is back ordered.

Easy Lounger L/G is also sold out now!! I did not see that coming!

I've already made my order and got the things I really wanted. Didn't get Marine Life hope I don't regret it

 

[Flaminbird]

This is crazy

. Anyway when I go to MAC on Thursday I will pick up an extra Marine Life for anyone that may not get it. I actually had dreams last night that I kept going to MAC trying to get stuff for people! LOL and I'm not even that worried about not getting anything....except Firecracker.

That's insane! If it doesn't get restocked and someone wants it, I don't mind doing a CP for someone from the UK website!
