MAC Bloggers' Obsessions will be Restocked

I just received this from MAC this morning – I don’t have any additional details other than the message below:

MAC will offer more inventory of the Bloggers’ Obsession Collection. Look out for a waitlist feature going live on maccosmetics.com within the next few weeks so that you’re the first to know when more stock is available.

This is very good news indeed! And as I have said before, MAC would be nuts not to restock. I can’t recall ANYTHING selling out quite so fast (especially “Jealousy Wakes”) – about the only MAC product I know of that went anywhere near as fast was Stereo Rose MSF and even that didn’t sell out this fast, I don’t think.

I’m glad to hear that they’ll be restocking so that people won’t miss out on the items that sold out too quickly. But I do feel sorry for those who spent a fortune on eBay instead of waiting patiently.

Giana Avatar

it is sad for those who paid the high price on eBay, but I hope the people who are selling them are regretting buying so many and now don’t know what to do with it. people can be so greedy!

I’m pretty sure they’ll still sell good. A lot of non-US customers depends on eBay sellers when it comes to LE MAC products.

Patty Avatar

Yay!!! This is great news. I sent an email asking MAC if they will be restocking, and I’m guessing a lot of other customers did too. I hope that I get a chance to snag it this time around 🙂

Danni Avatar

Awesome! I got my hands on Karen’s lipgloss, but missed out on both Hocus Pocus and Jealousy Wakes. And I refused to purchase either on eBay. Thanks so much for letting us know!

Bunny Avatar

Yeahhhhhh!!!! I’m so excited about this. I hope I can get Jealousy Wakes this time. And please MAC don’t underestimate Canadian stock!

Olivia A. Avatar

Yaaaaaayyyy!!!! This time I can’t dawdle around – definitely going to jump on Jealousy Wakes (or ask my boyfriend for it as a b-day present) 🙂 Thanks for sharing the good news!!!

Lauren Avatar

I just received my order of the collection and the photos of Jealousy Wakes don’t do it justice. It’s absolutely beautiful! You took a sight risk in choosing a color (as opposed to something more neutral) and it totally paid off! Awesome work! 🙂

melina Avatar

oh ok ! thank u so much for the FAST response! i wish u the best in everything! 🙂
even tho i dont know u, i feel proud of u! 🙂

I HATE when they do that. it makes me so mad. it is also financialy wrong. there are a lot of girls WANTING to give them mony, but they wont take it.

sorry for my bad english.

Kara Avatar

Yay!! That’s great news! Now I can try some of the lipglasses and maybe get an extra eyeshadow! I’m glad everyone who didn’t get anything is getting another chance! [:

Michelle Avatar

this is great news. i got mines but i was thinking that i could help out our fellow international friends who aren’t able to get a hold of the items.

Jessica Avatar

This is great news! I know can get another All of My Purple Life l/g and another Hocus Pocus e/s. I was ready and willing to swap Jealousy Wakes for a Hocus Pocus. I was sadly underwhelmed by JW. Reminds me of Steamy too much.

Desiree Avatar

I agree. I guess I wasn’t that fond of it, either. The swatches on this site weren’t as accurate as others, all things considered. I thought it would be more green and less teal. I’m sure that works for girls who like a lot of color but MAC has an amazing neutral range and that’s what I usually wear. I am going to snag another Hocus Pocus and maybe Sparkle, Neely, Sparkle. Definitely picking up another All My Purple Life.

Christine Avatar

It looks exactly as photographed here as it does on me – I cannot, of course, anticipate what it may look like on each individual. I’ve had many people say it is a great green on them, and I have certainly had others say it’s “too teal.” I really do everything I can to ensure color accuracy in all swatches, because the last thing I want to do is waste someone’s money – like I did yours, so my apologies there and I hope you returned it!

Ravie Avatar

I thought you liked neutral… All my purple life, doesn’t sound neutral… But that’s great, now I can get JW! Return it!!! I’ll take it!

Awww! This reminds me of the time you mentioned that if you could have arms of different colors for swatching, you just might go for it…. I think its a matter of learning what a swatch on each particular blogger’s skin tone means when translated to one’s own. Even then, peoples’ skin tones change over time. Unless we paint our skin with flat, opaque paint there is some room for variation. Also, computer screens (and color vision!) vary as well. It seems most people have inconsistencies in green-blue vision, so how we perceive those colors can be fairly different.

Great! I’ll probably pick up Hocus Pocus this time. I didn’t care about it the first time around but my mind changed after seing swatches from the blogosphere.

Desiree Avatar

I have a question, I just received my MAC order last night, so i was able to use Jealousy wakes this morning, it came out teal on me. How do I make it appear greener? I noticed on some of your looks, it appears very green. Any suggestions would help. Thanks so much !!!!

Shayne A Avatar

Wahooooo!!!!! MAC, thank you for being in tune with your customers & responding favorably to customer demands. It was just INSANE how fast BO sold out! Like someone else said, I haven’t seen anything that crazy since Stereo Rose & Marine Life. Now maybe I can pick up Jealousy Wakes (well duh of course I’m getting that one) and Evolution Revolution (Karen’s lippie). I am so excited about this bit of news!!
Thank you Christine!!!

stacey Avatar

Good. Possibly all of Temptalia’s blogs/ postings/ surveys etc. help contribute to MAC decision to restock…and not her “bragging” about JW as some have stated. It showed how desirable ALL the products on BO are. And those who sold at ebay for crazy prices….did not outsmart anyone.

Nichole Avatar

I am too thrilled MAC took pity on us makeup addicts and will replenish the stock for this collection. I think MAC underestimated the popularity of the bloggers and their supporters. I got everything I needed the first time around. This will be a backup haul.

Erica Avatar

Ladies, why on earth would you come on Christine’s blog to say how much you hated JW? She spends a lot of her time, effort and money to create something that we can enjoy and benefit from every day. I consult this blog before each and every MAC collection 😉 I find myslef a little upset that this forum may be used in a hurtful way. I am just happy that she chooses to do this. She doesn’t have to. Whew ok rant over. *exhale* Super excited at the chance to purchase JW btw!

Lulee Avatar

Seriously! That’s what a return policy is for, there’s no need to come here and cry about it. It is very rude in my opinion. And Christine, I hope you aren’t too disheartened by these comments, many many people bought your eyeshadow and love it (myself included)

Laura Avatar

AHHHH YES!!!!! So I have decided after reading this that fingers crossed if I have money (single mom deadbeat dad would rather sit in jail then help) I am going to order like 3 JW because it is true there is NO color like it and I didnt get one the first time or win the contest. Going to start saving NOW!

mumtaza Avatar

I received nitro:licious 2046 today. Awesome color, loved the backstory, and so versatile for a red lipstick obsessee. I feared it would dupe wonderwoman but totally different. A perfect blue-red. Now I want jealousy wakes and all of my purple life, please.

mumtaza Avatar

P.s. I’m lookin’ out for green with teal and gold pearl. If it pulls teal, I’m wearin’ it, If It’s as green as the everglades I’m wearin’ it. Beautiful Is beautiful.

Gabs Avatar

I am still so so so jealous and frustrated!!! MAC does not only not ship internationally, they don´t accept international billing!!! Arghhhh… your green was my absolutely perfect color!

Lile Avatar

This is very good news. I was lucky enough to get Jealousy Wakes, along with a few other items from this collecion, and I would like to add my comments to the many that have already been said about what a gorgeous color this is!! Thank you, Christine!
