Glamour magazine bloggers have just confirmed: This launches on MAC on Sept 27th. I am assuming this is the online launch. The store is Oct 4th!
You're right, Sept. 27 is the online launch according to this: http://news.instyle.com/2012/09/19/mac-marilyn-monroe-collection-makeup/

I know, right? I like to cuddle my polish from WW and still haven't used it.
Charmed I'm sure is going to be Skipped I'm Sure for that very reason. Too similar to Fire Sign although the finish will be different. Not that different from Runaway Red to justify it, unless you just love the packaging IMHO
Big Pimpin'... I love it. I would like to try this with my Hello Kitty casing. Isn't that the powder from Style Warriors?
I am thinking it will be similar to HK Tahitian Sand. I think it will be mild enough to use for most pale to medium complexions. I do love the texture of the BP's so unless it is hideously orange, I will be rocking it...
the honey comb one was from Naked Honey. I've tried it with my HK cases and felt faaahnsi, lol!

Oh...shimmer. I don't know why, but I expected these to be more matte or satin. If this is shimmery, it's off my list.

No not really shimmer, but some of them have something a bit more than a sheen. I'm not sure how to discribe it. But it might be that this one will be more on the matte side, I can't tell from the discription.

Thanks. I hope we get a good swatch before launch. I know the colour will be fine for me, but I don't find shimmer/glitter/strong sheen (particularly metallic) flattering anymore. I'll keep my fingers crossed for something that's more subtle. I don't know that I've seen too many Marilyn pics with a pronounced sheen.

I've been lurking on this thread for awhile and decided to finally post and share what I just read. Karen from makeupandbeautyblog posted a picture on her Facebook page that reads sneak peak of my next post and the picture has text that reads MAC Marilyn Monroe!!! Can't wait to see what she posts.

Yay! I am wearing Play It Proper BP today in anticipation of the beauty powder. I am hoping that I will like it as much as I like PIP.

I've seen that, it seems like some bloggers got the Marylin Monroe stuff earlier!

Do you have the first release of TS as well (Catherine Deneuve)? I adore it! The HK version was a bit more orange, but the CD TS is sheer perfection.

I wish I had the Deneuve one. I am pretty happy with the HK one and my skin eats up orange so it doesn't go all oompa loompa or anything

I loove Play it Proper beauty powder. I prefer the texture of MAC beauty powder to any highlighter I've tried.. so I really hope I will be able to get my hands on Marilyn one!

I love that look on karen. I might try the lashes too.
I'm not even going to attempt to try eyelashes. I'm really finicky about my eyes and feel funny about using "glue" around them. It took me forever to get used to applying eyeliner and mascara. Plus I can't stop thinking the lashes would keep hitting up against my glasses and annoy me like crazy.

Meh another boring collection. This collex truly caters to the fair complexioned people. However, I do like red and deep reds in the lipstick range.
