MAC Early Buzz - news on products for 2012

[Babylard]

Speaking of brushes can anyone give me a rec for applying powder foundation?! Tia

Sigma F80 or the buffer brush from the Samantha Chapman core collections are pretty awesome! They can be used for liquid too. These brushes will give you maximum coverage. A dome shaped kabuki is also really good for powder. Sigma makes one and every day minerals makes one too. I just prefer flat tops :3

I've just seen the reduction in size (but not pro rata reduction in price) of the Face & Body foundations being discussed on Twitter, and saw this tweet, which may please some of you, especially the MUAs

"we are coming out with the smaller sizes for counter but are also keeping the larger size + small size in MAC stores"

(Off topic) AND YET ... They changed the size of the pigment jars

(really!?!). Those rat

.
Sorry, had to get that out (LOL).

Hi all! It's been a while... I have a loooooot of catching up to do on this thread! Looking forward to August and September collections, for sure!

What's everyone looking forward to the most?

Thanks for the info, paparazziboy... I didn't realize you can't B2M the pans!

The easiest way is really to look at the outer packaging of the product. If you can see the B2M sign, you can B2M it. I usually keep the outer packaging if I plan to B2M for it. Never had any problems doing it this way.

I also thought that the B2M logo had to be on the box, but i got confused when the pro store in Cologne told me the pans where B2M-able. I guess it was a mistake from them.

I'm with you totally on this! Naked pigment is also a staple for me, as is UD's naked matte shadow. It's still in the regular lineup, thank goodness!

I cannot recall if I have UD Naked, but I would love to sample one. As for Naked pigment, I use that puppy nearly every day for blending out from the crease to the brow shade and it is perfect for that effortless all over lid color when you want to look, well practically "naked" of make up. I hope they never stop making it, but if there was something similar in pan form, I would buy it in multiples for sho'

Have you tried Naked Deep and N Deep Dark? Love them for contouring the eyes. You can really carve out sculpt the shape of your eyes if you use all three as they go so well together.

I have a feeling you might like them.

Wasn't sure where to put this, but I've just seen that Urban Decay have decided NOT to sell in China after all, due to the animal testing issue http://www.urbandecay.com/Animal-Testing-Policy/animal-testing-policy,default,pg.html

I guess you can put it in the Urban Decay thread, but thanks for the link! I hadn't seen it before and this is great news!

 

[Mac-Guy]

Pro pigments???

Yes. You. Need. Them.

It seems like UD couldn't afford to piss off their customers (unlike MAC who certainly can without loosing any, or just a few, customers).

Good for them! Now I just hope that other companies follow.

I have never heard of Archie's Girls.

But thank you for the info. Since I have no idea who that is I don't know if I should be excited about this or not.

I need to google...
