I quoted it from here: http://www.specktra.net/forum/postin...te&p=54836

[Edit: I am not posting her FOTD pics she's referencing cuz I don't think she'd want me hotlinking them. I did that before cuz I didn't have anywhere of my ownto upload them  ops: ]
"I am not posting swatches from my book this time. However, yes Mineralized skinfinishes are coming back. They launch on July 21st with Rebel Rock. Porcelian Pink, Gold Deposit and Shimpagne will be making another appearance along with 3 new colors: Stereo Rose (seen above) - which is somewhat like a muted version of pink bronze IMO, Metal Rock - which is SUPER dark and will be sooooooo pretty on you darker skinned ladies. Seriously, it's a deep chocolate brown with flecks of gold, and New Vegas - which a light gold. All of these will be released with the 187 brush which will now be permanent in all locations - as of now it's a MAC store exclusive.
Lustrevision. It is indeed being released here in the US. On August 4th. Along with new, permanent PRO longwear lustre lipcolors. They're much more sheer than the normal pro longwear shades.
The "big"/main collection for fall is NOT Rebel Rock. It contains more muted shades and will be out August 25th. It has 2 quads, 5 lipsticks, 4 lipglasses, and 2 new blushcremes.
Paints. There's new paints. All in neutral shades. Magrittes and Stillife will be repromoted with the 6 new shades. And there's a gold one that is everything Hot and Sour wasn't. It's not bright yellow gold, but a true gold.
Veluxe Pearl eyeshadows. There's 12 new ones coming in late September. All are permanent. Most are duochromes. They're being released with Glitter liners. SO those of you who didn't get Peacocky - you have another chance! Glamourgold, Suacepot, Spunsilver, Pinkphonic, and Mercuric will join it. The liners are LE.
Cremestick liners. What I'm wearing above ^. They're waterproof and feather resistant. 12 new, permanent shades in a conveniant self sharpening tube. They glide right on and are NOTHING like the horrible old liners (frazzle dazzle and those ones)
The glitz glosses disappointed me to be honest. It basically an overspray of glitter. There's highly reflective pearlized pigments within the gloss but all the "glitz" you see when you first buy it/see it is only on the top.
Mineralized skinfinishes are handbaked for 3 days in Italy and contain 77 minerals so when they're on your skin, you look like you have an almost natural glow. You can use them anywhere, but most people use them as blush or a highlight. However, I should mention that Stereo Rose is NOT safe to use on the eyes as the others are . . .the effect that Minerlized Skinfinishes give off, really can't be duplicated with a pigment IMO.
.....There's tons of new permanent stuff! 12 new lipliners, 12 new shadows, 12 new prolongwears, 2 new blushcremes, 1 new gloss, and 6 new paints!
About the fall collection with the new quads:.......think of the contrast between the belle azure shades and the d'bohemia shades . . . same kinda deal. Most "MAC addicts" probably won't like the collection aside from the fact that there's 2 new quads to collect, but most other customers will love it. One quad is more on the warm side with a warm kind of frosty white, deep reddish violet (reminded me of sketch), frosty beige, and Velour (repromote - it was d/c) and the cool quad has a soft pink somewhere kind between vapour and orb with a bit more pink, a grey blue green, a deep beige and then Smut - which is supposedly the same, but looks different to me. All the colors are colors you'd find in nature. Think of the colors you'd see in a field of wheat. The way they presented the collection made me think of pottery barn - lol! And the editorial photo reminds me of Beau."

I'M pretty sure that it will be September 29th. Do you really think that MAC can't release a collection meanwhile 2 months?? (August 25th to November 29th) Nah..... It can't happen!
