New Icon collection Feb 2007
I've just had the info and the beauty icon for the Icon collection for 2007 is going to be Raquel Welch. There's going to 2 limited edition eyeshadow quads, a ltd edition collection of beauty powders with tiger print on the covers as well as lipsticks with the same tiger print on the case. There will be a couple of glimmer shimmers and 2 ltd edition brushes: one is a #223 blending brush and the other is #169 angled cheek brush. From the pictures, the #223 looked like the current #222 but with black and white mixed striped hairs (like a badger effect) and the #169 looked like the current #168 but with the mixed hairs.

Once I get hold of a scanner i'll try and scan the release info and post them up.

*wait for the inevitable 'but why are the Icons always oooooold? Why isn't Paris/Christina/______ an icon?' crowd to roll in*



They're really trying to flog these Glimmershimmers, aren't they?

Maybe because an Icon is an idol, an object of uncritical devotion...most of the older women have avoided scandal and public criticism.

Or the scandal of their youth is forgotten by those who remember them or weren't even born, yet. And the fact that Paris/Christina, etc., maybe over-exposed and over-played right now -- not that they wouldn't be the right "image" (icon)....I think MAC may want to avoid the controversy of some young stars lives.

Or, maybe old chicks like me will look at the ads, and go, "oh, she's my age!" Plus we all have gold cards.

It seems that they use classic ladies for the Icons and more young people for the Viva Glams.

I think they choose older Icons because I think of legends when I think of Icons. Christina and Paris are not legends. They will be in about 20 years if they manager to stay in the forefront their whole career. I think an Icon is a seasoned artist. Just my opinion though....
