MAC - Holiday 2010 A Tartan Tale Discussion

[LittleMaryJane]

I'm still wanting Glamora Castle

And I'm glad there's one I want too because I think the tartan print is adorable and I want one of them in my collection

Woot! Adding bronze face kit to the cart

Thanks doll!

Hey, I have a question for all of you: If you could only get one item (lip bags, kits and sets count as 1 item) - what would you get from this collection? (not asking for must-haves, just what you would personally like to have)

what an impossible question! Maybe the lipglasses kit? Or the mineralize kit, different products in it. I really don't know, there are a lot of things in this collection that I feel like I NEED to have, but I just can't resist those tins

so I'd pick something in a tin.

So no one is able to tell me when this is will be launched online. I did a MAC chat and they just said it will be in the stores on the 28th but they don't have an exact date for the online launch. I always thought it was the Tuesday of the same week as the store launch I just wanted to make sure. Oh well I guess I'll just keep checking. *sigh*

Well, I'm an eyeliner whore so I would have to get Undercurrent.

As much as the neutral lip set looks goregous I'm still skipping and hoping it gets to my CCO. I will be all the pearlglides except Lord it Up. I'll have to check out the brush sets in person. I'm in need of some brushes and actually still use a MAC brush set I bought years ago.

For me this one item would be the cool eye palette.

I think we have the same taste

Oh duh! Should have written that. Lord It Up and Black Swan.

Agreed!

I was so unhappy with last year's palettes pigmentation-wise - all the colours barely show up on me and become a muddy, chalky mess on me.
How's the pigmentation this year?

Also, I own Smoke & Mirrors from last year's collection. How different is it from Dashing Lassies? In other words - should I get it? Erine?

I did a live chat and they told me that they aren't told when collections are put up online anymore.I hate all of this secretiveness lately from MAC,it's turning me off of MAC a little.

If Cut a Caper looks on me like Karla's swatches, it will be the 1st lipstick that I'm backing up

It's very good to see a lot of swatches before buying, I'm sure I'd be overwhelmed at the store if I hadn't checked the items online. Now, I really want just 2 or 3 items

I'm going with the Smokey pigments!!! I want the tin, and I'm trying out pigments for the first time, and I love all the colours, even if they are mostly perm

I swatched the palettes when I preordered and the pigmentation is SOO much better than last year! It's so much smoother and more pigmented for the most part!

I'm not erine lol but I can tell u that smoke and mirrors and dashing lassies aren't similar at all! maybe the 2 darker colors (showstopper in this year and smoke & mirrors in last year) are kinda similar as cool browns but smoke mirrors is more purple toned and dashing lassie is more neutrals and smokey. hope that helped! =]

Is Glamora Castle similar to smoke and diamonds? Does anyone know?

No. Glamora Castle is just a grey. The texture is very similar though.

Is the plaid on the palattes actual cloth? I thought it wasn't but it really looks like it is.

 

[Anneri]

It is!
