Re: Michigan City, IN CCO (Lighthouse Place Premium Outlets)

I sent my mom here the other week.(they go to the blue chip casino thats down the road) I saw that the outlet had a cco so I told her she had to go for me! She went, but forgot her glasses so it took her awhile to look at the colors and such haha. BUT they had quite a bit from what she read over the phone. I dont remember all the names and everything but from what I DO remember:



MANY paintpots (mostly lighter, more neutral shades)
quite a few lippies. had her look for peachstock and fleshpot but nope

a few pink lipglasses
powders and foundations(foundations in darker shades)
quite a few different eyeshadows (bitter,time and space, some PRO colors)
blonde, brunette msfs
couple different mineralize blushes
brush sets, lipgloss sets
probably around ten full size brushes(182 and 168 and eye ones for sure)
and she read a couple gold and copper pigments off but i wasnt looking to get any pigments at the time so i dont know how many for sure were there.
i know they had a few brush rolls and i had her go back the next day to get me one but they were gone already! bummmerr.

I will be going with them this weekend so I will for sure be checking out this CCO again...and I will have a better, detailed review!

Re: Michigan City, IN CCO (Lighthouse Place Premium Outlets)

ok so an update from today. they had gotten there shipment for this month early(yesterday) so I was excited to go in to see what they had. BUT was dissappointed. Heres what I can remember:

only one paintpot- green something, cant remember?
maybe ten lipsticks...nothing really special
probably 15 pigments. all the normal ones really but i was suprised at how many there were!
maybe six lipglasses
probably ten eyeshadows. poison pen, violet trance, bitter, knight, henna, thats all i can remember.
manyyy brush sets.
2 different lashes, nothing great though
maybe 5 lipliners, 3 brow sets
hello kitty quad...cant remember name though
ssad.gif

tempting quad, another purpley quad
msfs in brunette, porcelain pink
like 5 blushes. full fuschia, one mineralized one(pinkish), 2 mauveish ones(names?) and one that was like a lighter version of emote. started with an N, im just aweful with remembering the names now!
and there were studio fix fluids there. NW15, NW20, NC35,NC40 and up
many concealor pencils
mineralized foundations in like all the shades

annd thats all i can remember as of now. like i said i was kind of disappointed. I think i was just so excited to go so i was expecting to leave with a bunch of goodies but better luck next time I suppose! I ended up getting Queen Bee lipglass, Blue Brown pigment, and material gold metal-x cream eyeshadow(ive never seen these? so neat!)The lady is really nice in there, she told me that since my parents go there about once a month that i can call in advance to have them hold anything i want and see what they have and such. Im dying to get a brush roll....she tried getting me to buy the bobbi brown one, but i just cant justify paying almost 90 dollars for a brush holder! BUT i hope i was helpful, and I will update if I (or my mom

) go to this outlet again!!

I was there at the end of July and they had a great piggie selection.... not too much else though. The 185 buffer brush and some lippies, a few blushes, and eye shadows. I can't remember what else sorry.

Visited on Tuesday and I found various things. There are gift sets from Tartan Tale, blushes from Quite Cute, one lipstick from Marcel Wanders, several lipsticks from Surf Baby, eyeshadows from Venomous Villans, some Nordstroms-exclusive stuff from 2009. There are collections I am not familiar, but it appeared to be sometime in 2009-2011. There are at least 10 pigments available, some neons and darks. I did found Lady Gaga 2 lipstick as well. No Fix+ or mixing media available. I was impressed with the traincases from various lines (esp. Bobbi Brown). They only have one Tom Ford lipstick, and it was from a 100 dollar Black Orchid set with solid perfume. I was not impressed and ended up going to the Lancome outlet where they have an extra 50 percent off sale.

Visited this location in April of 2012. It appears that this location inventory has grown. I'm totally stoked about that

. This location sells more parfume's than other locations I've visited. So if anyone is interested try this location.

This CCO has more MAC lip glosses than the Aurora, Illinois location. I picked up 3 MAC Kissable Lipcolour from the Peacocky collection.

I was amazed that there serveral MAC pigments in Violet. These are the original 7.5g jars

. I got some pigments in new and old style jars.

I was hoping to find deeper color in the Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundations. No luck there. However, I was able to find Double Wear creamy eye shadow (to use as a base). There are several colors there. I picked up a couple of those.

I was pleasantly surprised to find Smashbox at this location. There were plenty of boxed sets and palettes. Be sure to check that out.

There were also brand name tote bags available. I really like them. But not enough for the price.

At the counter there is always a basket full of brand name goodies. I picked up a eye shadow and lip stick from MAC.

I should be making another trip there possibly in June or July of this year.
Happy hunting !!!

I went to this CCO today (may 26th) and I picked up a Mulled Cider e/s from one of the fall collections last year.

I also saw some To The Beach cream bronzers, some of the Tartan Tale gift sets, some of the Snowglobe sets from last Christmas, and they even had some lip glasses from the Surf Baby Collections. I was also surprised with how many nail polishes they had!

There was also lots of clinique gift sets, smash box box sets, and a whole side of the store as dedicated to origins!
