Hi - Could you please tell me how to slim my nose. It is not horrible but in photos it appears to be very wide in the center. Thank you.

Hi Karen, Simply contour the sides, the light hollows, with a darker color than your natural skintone by 2-3 shades lightly with an angled fluffy brush.

Maybe maybe maybe Authentics *fingers crossed* will be better than Originals.

I can't wait to find out more about A Mei; the Pro store in SF is the closest one to me!

Im glad then, its 4 days before my birthday and from the pictures ive seen I think its my favorite one.

oh man am i going to be broke the end of this year =( I can't wait!!!

lol, Ilona! You're so funny :)

Wow I cant wait for them all. I was told Curiositease was only internation. I guess they changed it?

As far as I know it's part of US launch.

Any MSFs coming out Christine? Thank u for this hun!!!!!!!!

Not sure yet! There's not a lot of detailed info for Holiday '07 and beyond - just a few details here and there. Will let you know when I know!

Does anyone know if you can use your MAC Pro Discount on the Antiquease Holiday Sets? I'm a new Pro member and I'm not sure. I know that you can't use it on the special edition perfume. :(

Probably not. You generally can't use your PRO discount on any specially packaged items.

I can't wait!!!! Thanks for the advance info!!!

No problem! I thought I should give everyone's wallet some time to plan and put them on notice that there will be no recovery period!
