UK Release Dates Discussion - All Brands Welcome!

I might not be able to go either as it's half term, hubby's gonna be home then and we might go somewhere with the children. But since it's a Thursday, I could go in the evening as both Bentalls and Boots are open until 9 pm. I also have a 500 extra points voucher if I spend over £50 at the next points event, so I could get £17 worth of points! Too good to miss.

Could you not say you have to leave earlier than you actually do and go to Boots before you go out (out).

My friend is picking me up from my house, and I don't think I could get my parents to leave early enough for me to walk into town (20 minutes each way), do my Boots shopping and get back again in time. I'll just have to hope there's another points event coming up.

I reckon there'll be at least one more.

Saw the Dior holiday collection today, but for some reason the lip and eye palette didn't have the eyeshadows in it, instead it had plastic in the shape/colours of the eyeshadows. Wtf? I know it's £60, but surely all the more reason to let people test it if they are going to spend that much money on it??? The lipglosses were in it, so why not the eyeshadows? The quints are forgettable and I didn't even bother swatching the lipsticks. I think I might only get the big palette (if I can swatch it), hopefully with my Boots points.

Anyone in London today? Rimmel have tweeted

"Rimmel will be in Tottenham Court Road (WC1E 7ER) from 11am TODAY & have 500 bottles of NEW Match Perfection Foundation to giveaway!"

I just spoke to Sarah on MAC Live Chat.

Glamourdaze and the Holiday Sets are due out tomorrow on MAC online.

I can't decide whether or not to order from them directly or order from Debenhams for the points.

The problem is I'm going away this weekend and won't have much online time so I'm tempted to just be safe than sorry and get what I want immediately.

I spoke to Kate last night, and she said to speak to her again this evening and she'll tell me the price of the EDES. I really want to know to finalise my list!

What are you after?

She was wrong - it's all appearing on the site now. Look under the individual categories for products. We've got the lipgloss and crush metal sets at the same time as the main collection. What I haven't found yet is the brush sets

 

[gracie90]

They haven't even decreased the price of the EDES at all, not even 50p! Grrrrrrrr

 

[PeachTwist]

Thanks ladies!

Put my order through!

Glamourdaze l/s
Whisper Of Guilt EDSF
Small Vanity Blush

Also got the Neutral Eye palette and the Smokey Eye palette. My Mom is giving me the money for them as they're for Christmas for me so I won't get to play! Ah well, at least the other items are mine

Great haul! I am so conflicted wit the price increases though - we now have to pay an extra £1.50 for special packaging, even on eye liner!
I think I will just order my must-haves to begin with...

Yep! I only originally wanted one lipstick which was actually OF so when I saw swatches I changed my mind. These were the must haves and the palettes I asked for as a Christmas present because I wanted them but knew I couldn't afford to pay for them myself.

I *may* want a BU of Glamourdaze and if it arrives and I love it I'll get a 2nd one as a Christmas present from Debenhams.

I know I want 3 of the EDES, and I won't be getting anything else from the main GD part (not at the moment anyway!)
I'm also going to get the Cocktail Coral lipgloss set - £25.50 for 4 full size l/g (except cremesheen glasses and dgs instead) plus an adorable box is pretty good value considering!

 

[Anitacska]

I'm definitely waiting for Debenhams or HoF before I order, or just buy them directly from the counter in Bentalls, even they have some sort of a loyalty scheme.

See if I wore lipgloss I'd definitely go for it - but I just don't wear them. My hair is always down and it's long-ish so it gets stuck to my lips and it drives me insane. Just can't stand it. It comes in handy though because it always saves me money come collection time because I never want them!

 

[rockin]

Same here. Is it just the travel bag that's MAC exclusive? I'd love it, but it's too expensive for what it is, even though I adore leopard print

 

[PeachTwist]

I wanted to - but the fact that they're up this weekend when I'm away from a PC for 99% of the time, I wasn't risking not getting what I wanted and seeming from the US site, the 3 items I wanted were the best sellers. Ah well.

It's better to be safe than sorry when it comes to MAC! Imagine how depressed you'd be if you waited and what you wanted sold out

Yep! I'd have risked it if I wasn't going away but I'm gonna be busy ice skating and going to hockey games (ice) and trying to order MAC on a blackberry wouldn't be smart of me! I'd have been crushed if I'd missed it all though tbh.

Sounds like you have a fun weekend planned! I'm awful at ice skating
