No, I didn't. I just accidently woke up real early, must have been my inner MAC collection alarm clock that told me to check the Douglas site

I would definitely get Blue Sheen, I would too if I would wear those colours.
Hahaha. It could be so much easier if there were more stock!

When you put it in your cart and change the quantity. If you can put only 3 in your cart, they have only 3 left, if you can scroll the number down to 40, they have 40, for example.

Ah, you can only see it when you check out. I was looking for the quantities all over but didn't put anything in my cart. Lol.

Do you know how many MSF and MB they had?

There were around 70 MSFs, didn't ckeck all of them, but at least of RQ. Blushes were less, maybe around 50, don't remember. Usually there is less, at least I have never seen 70 of anything MAC in stock. More like 20 or 30.

Ladies and Gents, I have a question. I bought the Studio Moisture Tint on 05-30-11 and over the following 3 weeks I noticed that I have allergic reactions to it. They went away when I stopped using it. I admit I forgot I still had it when I found it this morning.

I still have the receipt. Can I still return it now or is the 14day return rule in effect no matter what?

It seems like we will get the P+P Beauty Balm on the 18th in Germany, so I think the Sized to Go stuff as well.

I received all my goodies today. I have mixed feelings about some of the products. First off, I LOVE Ever Hip, I did not expect it to look so good. I feel like the colour really suits me and the texture is just right. It has more pink in it than Jazzed and is not as dry. Love it. Summer Shower is pretty, but kind of dry on my lips. Also I can't see anything but a little sparke, have to try it with a gloss I guess. The biggest disappointment is Rose Quartz. The pink colour does not show on my skin, and I'm super pale, it just gives some shimmer. At least it doesn't make my pores look huge, like By Candlelight or Petticoat. But it's somehow hard to pick up the product. I don't hate it, but I expected more. And it looks weird to see how much product is in it compared to previous MSFs, it looks like it has been used for a while already. I still think it's a rip off with only 6.5 grammes in it. I have to pick up so much more product to make it show than any other MSF or powder. I'm on the fence about the blushes too, I can't see why these are supposed to have such a great texture, they're not bad, but not overly good to me either. Pressed Amber is not very pigmented IMO, at least it blends out so easily that it's almost gone. I have to put on several layers. WoC is better. My favorite is Golden Gaze. I NEVER wear dark or black eye makeups. I feel like it does not look very flattering on me, I just always look tired. But this one looks surprisingly good with my blue eyes. And even an eye makeup dummie like myself can create a lovely smokey look with this. Unfortunately mine has a lot of black, and looks more like just black with some gold shimmer rather than a dirty gold like I expected it. And I get major shimmer fallout from it, I have to try something to fix that. But I like this black-gold look so much on my eyes that I just ordered a backup. My first backup ever. It's not really in the budget, but I want to wear this look more often now, and the thought of ever hitting pan scared me, lol. And also Pure Magnificence, which I wanted from the start.

Chester - I don't know, but I would doubt that you can still return it if it's more than 14 days. But you should try.

Yes, I would like to use it as blush, but the pink part has not enough colour payoff for that, so I have to use another blush underneath. I tried it over WoC, and I liked it.

Maybe you can use it as an all-over-face powder instead? The pigmentation is not very strong, but I don't think it was meant to be a blush per se. I'm glad to hear it works over WoC. Do you think it's different from other MSF or highlighters you have? I only buy the MSF if I plan on using them all-over-face. IMO, they are too expensive just for highlighting...

If you can still get hold of Pearl, you should get it. It works really well all-over-face. And how do you like Feeling Flush? I know you were excited about getting it, but I'm not sure if you ordered it or not...

Since I'm so pale, I usually have no problem using products like MSFs or like Rose Ole as a blush. I think RO it's very different from every MSF or highlight powder or any product I have. The effect is kinda like Pink Power MSF without the middle brown part. Plus some bigger silver glitter particels. That's why I don't think it's possible to wear it allover.
At this point I'm not really interested in any more MSFs, only Lightscapade. For highlighting, I think I'll try to find a different product with a finer texture, I have my eyes on Givenchy Prismissime in Light Silk.
I didn't get Feeling Flush, I think you must mistake me with someone else, because I never really was interested in it

It was a little too dark for my liking, I prefer lighter pinks.

I have to check out the Givenchy one. It sounds amazing.

My bad :)

If you have a CCB, try to use it as a blush base for a RQ. If you have a tacky surface, it will pick up more color.

Naynadine, you did get the MSF from Douglas, didn't you? They have a very good return policy. Do return it and exchange it for a product you love! Life's to short to spend it with products that don't work for you! I even returned used products before.

But I'm glad that you love GG! I love it loads. I got FG and BS as well and used them for the first time this morning with FG all over the lid and BS as a liner on the lower lash line. LOVE!
Here's what I do to minimize fallout: use a primer. Use the MES wet with Fix+ and then, most importantly, use a transparent loose powder and put a thick (really THICK) coat of that under your eyes. When your MES have fallout, the particles are caught in the powder and you can carefully wipe the powder away with a brush. Easy!

You would love Pearl as an all-over-glow. Or, if you decide that MSF aren't for you, go for the Givenchy highlighter.*


* Lightscapade is also likely to have glitter, depending on what swirling you get.

Did you get to pick your MES. I'm glad you love GG. It's such a lovely color! Mine hasn't any fall-out issues at all - even when used dry.

Yes I could pick them myself. A really lovely MUA assisted me. I chose a GG with a lot of gold, a BS with lots of blue and some copper and a FG that looks a lot like yours. I'm so happy about them!
