Release dates for Germany

[hyazinth]

I was at my MAC counter yesterday (it's in a Douglas) and they already had Jeanious and the new Viva Glam on display.. I'm not that much into Jeanious but I got the Viva Glam lipglass. Sadly, they're not gonna have the Quite Cute stuff until the 18th, so that's gonna be a long 2 weeks for me!

That's the release date I heared as well. But for me the 2 weeks will be over in just a blink...What will you get from Quite Cute?


P.S. I am sorry for the awful long posts I do latley. But I don't have the time to drop by more often at the moment....

Hi hyazinth, how are you doing? I think Surf Baby will be a small haul, if at that. Did you get the pigment stack from SCF? Are the "pressable"? On Thursday evening I asked if Quite Cute will launch on Friday and she told me, yes, of course. When I came back on Friday they told be the 18th of March. The usual mess I am afraid. What will you get from QC?

 

[Naynadine]

Yes, I have Pink Cult now, it arrived 3 weeks after I ordered. It's beautiful, just like I thought it would be

. I also ordered Frayed to Order from Douglas, plus the Lustre Drops and the new Prep+Prime Highlighter Pen from Primed for Perfection collection.

I'm glad you were able to order PC from Douglas. Ordering the limited edition stuff online is always nervwrecking, it sells out so fast.

I'll probably get much less from QC than I wanted to before. I wanted almost the whole collection, but my list keeps shrinking. Especially with all the new info about the upcoming collections coming in. I'll rather save my money for those.

Naynadine, I feel like you about QC.. when I saw the first pics, I wanted everything, but now it has dropped down to maybe two or three lipsticks. I have to try out Quite Cute, Playtime and Candy YumYum on myself because I feel like every swatch I see is different from the next one!

I don't like the packaging of Surf Baby, but I am really excited about those pigments.

So all in all, I think I can save it a bit of money regarding MAC in the next couple of months, and save it up towards my growing wishlist of NARS or MUFE

 

[*JJ*]

does anyone know what's up next for may? surf baby? fashion flower?

 

[Anneri]

I've no idea actually! When does QC come out? April 18th is confirmed now? I'm absolutely clueless about releases at the moment...

[/quote] Apparently this comes out the 18th everywhere and for Ludwig Beck tomorrow. They are doing an event starting next Monday and release earlier. I really hope they get the mess that is their release date planning in control. The 31/3/ I was told this launches on the 1st of April and then they apparently postponed it short-notice :dunno:

I don't understand why such a big company like mac can't just set an international official release date, not only for the us and canada. I was told mid-march that the collection would come out first week of april.. and I went and was quite a bit disappointed. I mean, I can pop in at my mac counter basically anytime I want because it's kinda close, but imagine all of those people that actually have to plan a trip for something like that and don't even get correct information

Hey ladies,

sorry I kinda dropped off the face of the earth. The past collections weren't really to my liking.

I have a question, I've been trying to use some d/s make-up these last week. So far so good but I have trouble using the catrice eye shadows. My eyes hurt as soon as I apply them and then start to water until I take the make-up off. I now have the ingredients list of these eye shadows and wanted to compare them to MAC e/s (which cause no problems) but I can't find them online. Does any of you have an ingredients list? You'd be of so much help to me!

Meanwhile I'm going to hand over my credit card to MAC. I'll gladly pay more for an e/s to not have this ruined mess day-in day-out.

Hi Chester, I had the same problem with an Essence shadow and like you I am totally not interested in drug store makeup. Which colour from Catrice did you use? For one of the eyeshadows I have I listed the ingredients below. If you let me know the colour family, I can check if I have a matching box still around. Ingredients: Talc, Zinc Stearate, Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate, Isostearyl Neopentanoate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Caprylyl Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Phenoxyethanol, [+/- Silica, Mica, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron Oxides (CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499), Bismuth Oxychloride (CI 77163), Blue 1 Lake (CI 42090), Carmine (CI 75470), Chromium Hydroxide Green (CI 77289), Chromium Oxide Greens (CI 77288), Ferric Ferrycyanide (CI 77510), Manganese Violet (CI 77742), Red 40 Lake (CI 16035), Ultramarines (CI 77007), Yellow 5 Lake (CI 19140)] hope this helps you to narrow it down

hope this helps you to narrow it down

Hi bis

yeah, I just thought they have such nice nail polishes, why not try an e/s or two?
I tried: C01 Fairy Dust (Wonderland LE), C05 Walk In The Woods, C01 Berry Fairy (both Floralista LE) and the 030 OMG I Want That quad (new perm, gorgeous quad by the way). I found the ingredients list for the quad but not for the LE eye shadows. The funny thing is, it's not limited to a color family. The shadows I mentioned are beige/rose/brown neutrals, berry, brown, green and charcoal black. Just ordinary colors, no fancy yellow or such. The neutrals seem to be the worst but I still have the same reaction to all of these.

I'd just like to narrow it down so I can watch out for a few ingredients.

Thanks for the list! I'll do my best to sort through it.

 

[bis]

Chester, if it's all colour families than it must be something general, hope you find out though

 

[Anneri]

Totally off topic, but does anyone know where I can get information about MAC brushes? Namely if they are synthetic or made from real hair?

I think so too. Hopefully I can find an ingredients list for MAC eye shadows so I can compare.

[/quote] On the MAC homepage you can get them it list you all the synthetic brushes, link is here. [quote name="Chester" url="/forum/thread/108370/release-dates-for-germany/1530#post_2107538"]

[/quote] Oh, the list I typed up in the previous post are the ingredients from a MAC eyeshadow, hth.

Hi girls,
it's been a while again sorry...I missed you and specktra

Yes the general release date is 18th, tommorow, as far as I know too.
In munich ist was already available this week starting 13th as a pre launch. Ludwig Beck got the pre launch because of their founding anniversary.

 

[Chester]

Oh, the list I typed up in the previous post are the ingredients from a MAC eyeshadow, hth.

Oh! I didn't realize that. Thank you! You're a sweet heart.

Oh, and because I read your question to hyazinth: I got the SCF stacked pigments and they are pressable. I used the same procedure for them that I use for MACs regular pigments and they work the same.

Well well - long time no see, girls! I've been loaded with work, unfortunately. Makeup-wise I can tell awesome things about the Armani Eyes to Kill shadows - I got one last week (the khaki one, as the purple is sold out), and I truely don't need a base with this one, it's awesome for layering (very easy to do just a wash of colour or intense colouring) and has such a nice texture! I'll definately get more (whe I have the cash. They ARE pricey little buggers!).

I thought of skipping QC for so long, but I've such a crappy time at work at the moment that I got Sakura and Playtime in my lunch break. Retail therapy at its best! Playtime is really nice on me - not true purple, but a purple tinged pink on my lips. I still think that I should've gotten Style Curve, but well, I'll settle for this one now. Sakura - well, Azalea Blossom is just a smidgen more pink when I swatch both on my hand, so I'm unsure if I should keep it or return it. The heart is horribly glittery, the txture of the rest very nice - not overly chalky or dusty.

Did y'all get something? Or even from Surf Baby? Because Breuninger already has it, and I'm dying for swatches! If anyone did get stuff, please swatch and post! Pretty please with a cherry on top! Though nothing really tempt me apart from Hibiscus l/s and the blush - even though the dreaded overspray. It looks sooooo good! I'm afraid I'll never use it if I get it... maybe better get the Estee Lauder bronzer with the sea star... does anyone know when the Bronze Goddess LE comes out over here? I always love the summer collections so much!

I never seem to get equilibrium - I either don't post at all or writing a novel! Sorry girls!

What's Breuninger and why are they having Surf Baby already? Excuse my ignorance, I live in a little city in the far north and Douglas is as good as we get, considering makeup. I'm so happy we had a Müller and DM opening here last year, so I had more/cheaper options for everything

Anyway, I stalked my mac counter for the last couple of weeks and finally got CYY and Playtime today I'm so excited about these two. I have a pretty tight budget and the lipstick department is clearly the one I'm lacking (my collection has now gone up to 4 MAC and like 2 from other brands ), so I didn't even look at the blushes. I'm more excited about saving up for the Semi-Precious MSFs and beauty powders from Fashion Flower.

Breuninger is a department store, mainly in Southern Germany. They apparently scored exclusive early selling rights.
