MAC - Wonder Woman Discussion

Some more real life photos and swatches!

Not a fan of this collection as of now. The prices are SO inflated! I wouldn't pay $23.50CAD for a MAC lipglass. I'd rather spend a little more on Chanel or Dior and get a nice non-sticky lipgloss that also look great when I take it out to re-apply.

Went to an 'after hours' makeup workshop at my local MAC boutique and would you believe I was the only one who knew about the upcoming Wonder Woman collection? The other gals looked at me like I had four heads! I was told I'd be invited to the release 'party' for this collection. I'm looking forward to going but probably won't get much aside from the marine blue pigment (what's up with the $21 price?!?!?). The Valiant quad looks nice (I love greens) but I want to see how the colors look on me.

The brush sets look nice but unless they 'feel' like the full-size brush heads, I'm passing.

The information Temptalia has is that the t-shirts are 'online exclusive'. Seems odd that they would have them in-branch in that case, unless they are just for display purposes, or for the staff to wear as advertising.

I read that too, and was surprised to see it sitting on the counter. I said to the MA "Oh, so that's what the Wonder Woman T Shirts will look like" and she just said yep. Nothing about them being only for the MAs.

Im excited . . . I got an invite to the unveiling, cant wait to go & see things in person!!! Here I come Feb 1st !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really want the mirror being that supposedly it is "online" exculisive , I probably wont buy anything in-store and wait to place my order online.

^ one of the ladies at the counter told me that they got their t-shirts as in t-shirts for staff

i'm sure that the pigment is pro or perm so you could always buy it without the special packaging and it would be cheaper

Not impressed with this collection. The only thing I was lemming was Manila Paper e/s, but, unfortunately for me, the repromote is part of a quad & I don't care for the other colors so I'm not gonna pay $40 for 1 e/s. Hopefully, someone will depot it & swap it on MUA or sell it here. The only items I'm gonna check out are the red & magenta lipsticks, red & fuschia lipgloss, red np & maybe the blue-pink blueh, but not a fan of MAC's non-mineralized blushes. I'm skipping the March collection, but looking forward to what the Surf Baby has to offer.

She's so cute with her Wonder Woman costume!
I like the look she did and wow that lipgloss is opaque but honestly applying with the enormous doe foot didn't look too easy.

Anyone know if there's an unveiling in Philly? I'll be visiting fam there at the end of Jan/ beginning of Feb so that would be a great time to party @ MAC.

I know MAC in the King of Prussia Mall is having one. I found that out last night. MAC on Walnut Street should be but I don't go there often and I'm not sure.

She had pretty full lips and she was struggling to put that lipgloss on, eek. I tend to swipe lg onto the back of my hand an then use a brush so that wouldn't put me off but that colour would be quite unforgiving if you beeped it up.

Was the shirt predominantly yellow and red? if so its likely to be the staff shirts that was mentioned the other day in the thread. Unless of course MAC will be selling the same style to the public via their online exclusive.

Just watched that YT vid, im sorry my lips are big but I can't get with that gigantic doe foot applicator - looks hideous, definitely off of my 'maybes' list now fa'sure - urgh!!!

 

[2browneyes]

Thanks....I'm gonna call to see

No, it was predominantly red. I don't recall a lot of yellow.

i don't have enough lip for those glosses. that brush is huge in the video. i'd feel stupid using it. little lips, little hands, big ass lip gloss. please to not give me munchkin complex mmkay?

soo, i guess i'll pick up a lipstick, blush, MSF, maybe the Defiance quad, maybe a mascara and the navy polish and depending on what the shirt looks like, that as well.

 

[2browneyes]

I think I'll just get one or two of the colored mascaras.

 

[Soul Unique]

Ahh ok, VictoriaSecret4 had mentioned she and her colleagues had received their tops in those shades, so perhaps it is the one going on sale. I wish they'd release a promo pic!
