Really! I just got mine & I LOVE LOVE the BP!!! Its the prettiest soft highlight on me. I used it high on the cheekbones "C" around my outer eyes & even used it with my finger lightly under my eyes so I no longer look like a Zombie today.

Sorry you didn't like it. Did you actually get it?
idk I was just so underwhelmed. Maybe because of my oily skin I already have a natural glow going on so its just is blending in to that? I felt like to see something I just had to use so much product. I feel like nothing almost comes off on my finger. I'll have to try it on a proper full face of makeup tomorrow.

Twiddling my thumbs patiently waiting for my summer opal on wednesday.

Yeah. I had one of the CS people tell me that sometimes quantities have been that low. So those of you thinking you should just call Canada? NOOOO!!!!!!!! We don't HAVE Nordies, Macy's, etc. It's MAC or nothing for these kind of collections (although the Bay does get many of them).

Love you all, etc….but stay the f away from our lippies.

@bunnypoet. It's not sold out. I just checked the page 2 seconds ago and it still has the add to cart option. There's still hope!
Each time I added it to my cart, the website took it out when I tried to check out. And now it says "Sold Out". It's weird that some Specktrettes were able to buy it after I tried. My IP address is US-based, but I chose the Canada site (and it said "Free Standard Shipping on $65+ Orders to Canada" on the page). And it was available for a little while, but the site kept taking it out of the cart. This is the weirdest and most frustrating experience I've had with MAC in the past 15 years. Thank you for the help though!

I wish with collections with limited distribution and quantities like this one they would limit order quantity to 1 or 2. I know some non-resellers would be adversely affected, but it's so frustrating to see the resellers grabbing so much of the stock.

I also saw white and gold, but at one point when I laid back on my pillow and then look back at my phone, it was black and blue. I definitely think it was my change in position due to the increases amount of light my eyes were taking in.
:shock: really! Ok, that's interesting. Did it stay Black & blue or were you able to see the white & gold after awhile?
It went back to white and gold. I tried to recline back again to see if it would change again and it didn't.

I don't think any of them have sold out here yet. I don't know who this designer is so I honestly don't know what the big push for this collection is (unless it's just for the bright lippies). I was feeling a bit bad that I had only ordered my younger daughter a Cinderella lippie (and not my eldest) and thought I'd check to see how close the nude one from this collection was to Free As a Butterfly. That's how I know the call centre said they haven't launched yet - only online. Weird - I've never seen that.

Caved and just ordered FS too and the lip liner Whirl (which is also in stock now!)
Thank you! I checked the UK website and I ordered it now.



I called Harrods today and they confirmed that they are getting the collection but they have no idea when.
It's insane that you have to go through that much trouble to buy something from MAC

I'm glad that here the collections are usually released around noon and I've never had to stay up all night or stalk 10 websites (even with Riri). They should definitely change something because at some point people will get sick of this.

As for the dress, I was seeing it white for about 5 hours and I was saying that everyone who sees blue is crazy, then it was blue, then white again. A few times I was looking at, looked away for a second, and then it was the other colour
