Ugh. Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to talk to MAC customer service to try to figure out what they're doing with this collection. I know that the Canadian site usually does their uploads around 9 a.m., so I'm not going to be too vigilant about checking tonight.
I also don't think I'm going to bother ordering on line, even when it does come on. For some reason, I just found myself massively fed up with Mac about this whole thing. If they want to do this sort of gimmick where they do a limited release, they might at least do their consumers the favour of letting them know what opportunities they'll have to purchase it. I was really looking forward to this, but the idea that Mac expects me to be refreshing my screen every five minutes in the hopes that I might be able to purchase something that I'm not even sure if I really want but am afraid of losing out on... Well, that just grinds my gears.
I love the excitement of new launches. I love going to the store on launch day to try out products myself, so that I can compare them to the ones I've seen the sites I frequent. I do not like the idea that shopping for cosmetics should somehow be stressful. So I'm going to go out on Thursday to my pro store to check out the Peacocky launch and if they happen to be one of the stores that gets this collection and if they just happen to have stock, that's great. If not, so be it. I'll make up a quad for myself from permanent colours I think I'm missing. Or I'll save the money for a later collection. Or I'll spend it on one of the other companies whose products I've been ignoring because I've been bouncing from one Mac launch to another.
I hope that everyone here who gets their items from this collection really, really enjoys them and I look forward to seeing what gorgeous looks you're able to come up with using them.
