i'm in love.

I don't really find marine life to be all that bright IMO

Either it just blends in nicely with my skin or my eyes are fooling me and i'm walking around like a clown missing it's circus.

I like it. My lips are very pigmented (dark red/pink-ish) It gives almost a glossy like effect.

I wish Mac would have repromoted solar riche bronzer with this collection. It is my favorite one and today I had the unfortunate discovery of seeing the silver pan on the bottom of it.

I have beach bronze and Both the 131 and 130, when i apply it with the 131 i barely see ANYTHING! (im nc35ish MUFE HD 123 by the way) i was gonna try the 168 and see how it holds up but would LOVE some suggestions...please? lol Thanks in advance

Marine Life is deeper than Hipness. Hipness does show up beautifully on deep skin. I'm wearing it today actually. However I got this one from Fafi. Going on how they look in the pan the one that came out with to the Beach looks richer but I didn't swatch it. I'm NC45.

So I placed two orders online (I am in Canada) and the one I received, the other one not yet (one was ordered 3am one was 12 noon, same day). I checked the status online (I don't get shipping emails) and the status is "changed"... I worry because that one has the ML.... there have no changes made, it's still listed there, should I be worried?

I was going to Garden State Plaza, but that was canceled. Apparently, my friend (who drives) has a boyfriend with a tight leash.

I don't want to say yes, but yes, I think there is reason to worry. I placed my order with ML on Tuesday, and received it today but without ML! What day did you place your order on?

EDIT: I checked my status online but it says it doesn't show the status in Canada, so where is it that you saw a 'changed' status?

Probably both!

Loved the idea.

Agree. I don't think that piece of paper even protects the makeup for real.

You know, I told my husband that the two times I got this delivery attempt e-mail saying they could not find me or I wasn't home, they were lying probably because they were running late. I'm pretty sure they didn't even try delivering, I was waiting for them anxiously the whole time. My husband thinks I'm a bit paranoid about my makeup now

, so I feel better knowing other people know what I'm talking about.

Ok, so I am mad because I never got any advance notice of this, and I was at my mac counter yesterday and they had ONE ML left when I got there, but did not get it because I had thought my order went though (it had even shipped by the time I got to my mac counter).

A CANCELLATION EMAIL would have been appricicated. Now there is no way I am going to get that thing. Damnit!


Oh no! That sucks.

Under account --> order status it's all listed on the canadian site, it says shipped, or refunded or completed or whatever, this list is not up to date since there is an order from march that is still showing as shipped on there.

I ordered ML 26-MAY-10 12:30:25 PM so Wednesday. How did you order tuesday? it wasn't even on the site until Wednesday morning I think. This is from the regular site I am ordering from. If I don't get ML that is fine, but... I normally get emailed saying an item is not coming.

Hmm... for me every field says N/A* with *At this time, order status is not available online for shipments within Canada. To check the status of your order, please call 1-800-387-6707.

Interesting that you receive emails notifying you of a cancellation... That would have been handy.

It was on the site for me on Tuesday afternoon. I just double checked and yes, I placed my order on the 25th.

On the regular mac site? hmm I didn't see it go live until Wednesday morning that's when I first ordered.

ya they emailed me once when peppermint patti nail polish went oos and let me know. I mean, I don't expect it but, I normally don't buy crazy limited edition stuff like this so it's not an issue. Now I get to obsess about this all weekend long.

OK so ML is officially sold out everywhere I live...up until a 30 mile radius. No back ups for me! Anyway, I hope everyone who is expecting theirs to get them over the weekend. Keeping my fingers crossed for you guys. *hugs*

You mean maccosmetics.com? I was on maccosmetics.ca. I automatically get redirected there when I type in .com.

Sorry you are having trouble, hopefully it doesn't happen to you too.
