Re: "The Originals" discussion
I always look forward to the after Xmas collection from MAC but this year I think I'll be skipping it. There are no new colors in this collection, does MAC really find it necessary to have an entire collection of re-promotes?

I don't understand all of the excitement about parrot - how oftern can you really use aqua eyeshadow.

Re: "The Originals" discussion
I'm sure I'll end up getting some from this collection and I do agree with MAC Whore, et al. about MAC improving on formula's and all that, I suppose that for me these just weren't colors I was all that thrilled with in the first place. I do love Parrot, even though I rarely use it but it's nice for those who haven't had it to get it, you can dupe it with other lines colors (Cargo Aegean for example) but it's just not the same famous MAC texture and wear. I'm glad they delved deeper back than say LE items from just a few years ago, it'll be interesting to see what they end up looking like. I'm glad the lippies are lustres because some of the older Matte's and such were so drying! All in all, I was a little skeptical at first but I do want to give it a chance

Re: "The Originals" discussion
I'm also wondering what the motif behind this is. Besides just to bring back some awesome colors. Maybe because MAC is looking at Ebay and seeing the prices?

Hmmm. Interesting.

Re: "The Originals" discussion
Saw the promo pic for this collection- its so funny. The pic is of an elderly woman decked out in what looked like 80's gear, and she was holding a frame around her face. Way to go mac for being creative!
