From personal experience I already knew that nordies would release today. This has happened with every collection I have ordered from them so far. They say one day, and it's always the day before. Crazy.


My girl at nordies called me this morning to let me know that my order was all packed up and ready to be picked up! Yay! Including my ML! Double yay!


But guess what wasn't inside my bag of goods.......??? One of the brushes!! She says they sold out of it! That seriously surprised me! With all the talk of ML I didn't even think that this could happen to one of the brushes. She wasn't sure which one it was since she wasn't at work (they called from work to tell her), so now I have to wait till i get there to find out so I can order it online.

In the words of my late grampa.... ay yi yi.


Oh and I have an extra ML in case anyone needs it! Just let me know. It's at cost/shipping/PP. No crazy ebay fees!

Just realized today that it's going to take me years to finish marine life! It's that pigmented Glad I only got one.

I will be a courier which is something I really am afraid of doing and don't want to do it the rest of my life but it pays great and no lay offs!! I have to go go get a physical tomorrow and drug tests and then they hire people on the 14th and we start training July 12 or so. That will put me right at the point my current benefits run out and I shouldnt have to file another extension!! I still am leery that something will come up and I wont get hired or some crazy thing because I've had such bad luck but I think it will be ok

Congratulations

Me too. Unfortunately my only other wish item before fall is Stereo Rose so I'm sure I will have to be on my toes for that one.

The drama with this collection took some of the fun out if it. Makeupalley.com got so nasty that I probably won't go back and I've been a member there for a long time. Makes me appreciate Specktra love even more.

I think I will add to my MUFE collection for awhile.

I am going to the store tomorrow and whatever will be, will be...
I know that we have some lovely Specktra-ites who are willing to share their extras of ML. This at least puts my mind at peace

Really? I found that the bay takes way longer to sell out the same items that have allready been sold at mac on robson st. I often go to the bay and get my mac there if it's gone from the freestanding store.

They removed only from the collection section... But it still on the website (under "Powder"): M·A·C Cosmetics | To The Beach High-Light Powder

[EDIT: It's back on the website... Still sold out though]

I just called my freestanding store too and they also said that they had TTB out now. I guess the got an e-mail from corporate telling them to release the collection early so I would think all the other freestanding stores would have got this same e-mail.
Thank you so much for the heads up!

Now I can head straigh there after work and get all of my goodies, except for Mrine Life which is safely on a UPS truck smewhere headed my way.

sooo i can't sit and read up(stupid waking up w/ headache day!) but i called and the girl at the pro forum shops are the sweetest. they used to all suck and be rude and i hated it but the girl i spoke with was beyond excited. she had my 4 on hold for me right now in front of her and she said it's a must have collection it seems and it's amazing looking.

i'm thinking about just wandering in tomorrow haha. probably won't though. gotta run errands boo!
