Just as an FYI, neither of the fluidlines are sold out on the Canadian site. So if anyone is really desperate, talk to a Canadian friend! I think only the 239 and Sur are sold out for Canadians.

I have a funny story about today's release. I was at work this morning and at around 11:00, I remembered that this collection was releasing today. I thought it was going to be the usual mid morning release (around 10:00) so I was stoked that it was only 11:00, I was surely gonna get everything I wanted. I am a nurse and at work we are not supposed to have cell phones but I used the internet on my cell today because shopping sites are blocked at work. When it finally came up on my internet, I saw that Sur was sold out. I freaked out knowing I had to hurry if I was going to get anything from this collection (since Sur was sold out and at this point I could not tell what else was). So what do I do? I run to the bathroom and I wait and wait for the internet pages to load. Now, can you imagine at a gastroenterology office what people must be thinking when they hear someone in the bathroom shouting "come on baby, come on". Well, in the end I did not get Sur or Siahi, but I did get Mehr and Ivy which I am ok with.

So now, I guess everytime MAC has a limited release like this one, I will just head on to the loo.

DUPE ALERT:
If you have RED BRICK e/s you do not need SAFFRON. They are the same color. RED BRICK is a Matte and SAFFRON is a Satin. They even swatched the same. I went back to Pro today to try this color out and when I swatched it I have a feeling of Deja vu. I went over to the perm colors and swatched ORANGE and RED BRICK right next to it and Voila!!! RED BRICK is its twin.
I'll definitely be swatching these side by side when I check out the collection (assuming that my store even has it). Red Brick never particularly appealed to me, since I couldn't figure out what I'd do with it if I did have it. On top of that, I just bought Follow Your Fancy pigment, which is also a kind of burnt orange-red rather than a coral. It's pretty, but it makes me question the need for Saffron.

Pink Cult is what I am looking forward to most right now! Looks and sounds gorgeous and unique to my collection.

I snagged my Mehr last night but haven't gotten a shipping notice or anything. Let's hope we both get ours!

Love your new avatar, peachsuns! So cute.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Mac is useless when it comes to tracking your order. My overnight orders still say pending when I bet, at this very moment they are floating around in NJ somewhere.

I really should have gotten overnight.

Though, I still wouldn't get it until Thursday with overnight probably. That's what always happens.

i'm also wishing i had gotten overnight shipping...
oh well, it'll be nice to receive the stuff whenever! i kind of wish i had gotten sur...but i was kind of hoping i could just use my dolce vita instead...i know it's not the same, but i had to cut something out...as for siahi, i might get peacock from stila instead someday...i'm not sold on the fuildine formula - i think my eyes are too sensitive!

Looks like I didn't get the Mehr after all--sold out. Anyone know a dupe for that one? I'd really like a Satin or Matte Finish, but I bet I'm dreamin'

I'm not too crazy about Matte finishes but i do love Satin! I wasn't planning to get Mehr because of this.

I was grumbling last night about having to work late at the clinic BUT I got a break at 9 pm our time (PST) which is about the time new collections go up on the website. I hit the website early before the collections were listed together but the items were available. Got both fluidlines, Gana blush and Play It Proper (thanks to the lovely Elegant). Selected 2 day shipping but wish I had just paid the extra money and gotten overnight. Order still shows as pending online but I know that can be misleading. My order went through online by within 2 minutes of these babies going up.
 
wow. yash really looks like brave new bronze. i may need a back up. also, now that I see Sur and Notable are so close I feel better. thanks for the swatch link.

wow i am amazed to read that some people got backups of the fluidlines...i am a backup whore and didn't get backups of the fluidlines b/c it took me 3 whole years of everyday use to use up my first pot of gelliner (bobbi brown black ink)....so the 3 pots of fluidlines (ivy, siahi, and dark diverson) should last me 9 years! (not to mention the other 6-7 bb gel eyeliners i have)

Did anyone buy Flesh lipglass? I kept debating it. I wanted it b/c it seemed to match Siss perfectly, but I worried about the streakiness of it.
