one thing i will say... these were a bitch to open the first time... they were screwed tight and it was really hard to get a good grip on them to twist them open...i almost had to break out some rubber gloves or something to help grip it.

i just made sure i didnt twist them close nearly as tight

Did not expect a B- to be honest... They look really good even after 8 hours!

I wonder if she is going to post normal swatches...I hope so, because she didn't use them all on her eye and I want to see more clear pics of each color. Most of them don't look good on the eye to be honest, very patchy.

I`m bothered about the price/quantity issue. If they put so little in those pans they could`ve kept the prices lower ( at 14.50$) but no, they ask more for less. They did it with the pigments, with some msfs, now the face& body foundation -they ruined this perfect thing for me :( . I like 5 but i`ll only buy 1 or 2 to try the formula.

coil looks gorgeous. I don't really want to risk it with the formula, I think I'd much more prefer it as a normal eyeshadow. :(

MAC is really moving up the market (price-wise). I still consider the prices reasonable, at least in the US, when I compare it with high end brands. It's certainly different in other countries, where MAC prices are not that far away from Chanel & Co. They still manage to get by in those countries by severely limiting the quantities; and as long people buy it like crazy, prices will go up.

I totally agree. The formula is great, but I wonder how it holds up over time. Will they dry up like paint pots tend to do over time? WIll the consistency remain the same? So many factors to consider when purchasing. But some of the shades are lovely. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.
