Aren't they going to be in stores on 4/18? You could try to get one then?

Yup, I will try!  I'm hoping they aren't sold out early... I've been wanting a lavender lipstick for a while now!

 
I ordered Let's Skate. I'm glad they brought it back in this collection because I really wanted it in the Glitter and Ice collection but it sold out. I was going to get Mooncake too because that looks gorgeous but I feel like I have other shades like it.

 
I ordered the In For a Treat FacePowder. It looked too good to pass up. I loved te Veronica one I got from the Archie collection.

 
Just picked up Lavender Whip lipstick and Eclair paint pot in store. Super excited to play with them after work!

 
I picked up Lavender Whip (it was SUPPOSED to be the display version but a woman bought ALL of the LW's before the MUA could put the display up! So I got lucky there I guess), Eclair and Mooncake PP, and Reflects Transparent Teal glitter today. Thankfully, a friend in Jersey is going to pick up another LW and a RS for me so I should be receiving those in the mail soon! I've been in a purple lippie mood lately (bought Up the Amp 2 weeks ago) and I'm loving LW...even though I've read complaints that it's not the same as the original release. This version is working for me so I have no complaints. I do wish that things like what happened with LW at my local counter wouldn't happen...I understand wanting to get a backup but to purchase ALL of them when you know others are standing in line to get the same color is just a bit much. I have a feeling the woman that purchased them will be listing some on Ebay before the day is over lol. 

 
I tried all the products in this collection the day it was released in my area & wasn't impressed. Nothing seemed terribly unique to me, especially once I swatched the various products. I ended up buying some Guerlain Meteorites haha :) You get more than double the amount of product compared to MAC's Pearlmatte face powders. - for less than double the price -& it looks much nicer on the skin. Not to mention the fact that Guerlain's packaging is far far nicer. Really hope MAC actually has something decent for fall & winter. At least one unique blush FFS They've been coming across as old & tired for quite some time now.

 
This collection is so pretty! It caught my eye right away. I think the products are cute and the theme is adorable (a little sweeter-no pun intended-than Shop MAC, Cook MAC). The lipsticks in particular got my attention. However, I heard that this collection's iteration of Lavender Whip is different than the original-a litter sheerer/pinker. Can someone verify this? LW seemed like a very interesting shade. I'm sure many would be disappointed if it wasn't what they'd hoped.

Yes, LW is a little different. It pulls more pink than purple. I wasn't disappointed because it's a very wearable color for many. Then again, I never had the original! 

 
This collection is pretty, but I didn't buy anything because I didn't feel like it suited me or was too similar to what I already own.

 
Well, Lavender Whip may not be meant to be mine.  I was able to order it on Nordstrom's website, but it says it is backordered until May 13th.  Here's hoping!

I wish I knew you wanted it! I bought an extra & decided I didn't need it so I returned it to Nordstrom since I never like re-selling. Lets hope you get it!

It's been saying that since they made it available for order again. It was the same way last time...they allow you to order it with a back order date...just watch your email...you'll get a cancellation email if they run out again (happened to a lot of people, including myself last time). So far it's been quiet so I'm keeping my fingers crossed! I never get lipstick backups...this is the first time I've ever wanted to (well, this and OCC lip tar in Vintage).

 
I completely agree with you! I created a review on my blog about the collection and it just didnt meet my expectations. I hope they come out with a much better collection next time Edited to remove blog links, see Terms of Service

Hope you get it! If it makes you feel better, I got Heroine lip liner on backorder from them and it was a hugely popular item.

 
Thanks, everyone!  I just remind myself, "IT'S JUST LIPSTICK."  They did send out my three free samples today, though.  I thought that was unusual.  I have been wearing Revlon's JBKBS in 'Darling' and the Maybelline Color Whisper in 'Oh La Lilac' to tide me over.  

 
Im so excited to get this collection on my counter!!
