MAC Holiday 2012 Glamour Daze / Fabulousness / Guilty Passions Collection Discussion

[susanthebear]

My wishlist (as of now):
Lipsticks-

Glamourdaze - Midtone Creamy plum (Cremesheen)
Outrageously Fun - Midtone Magenta Violet (Cremesheen) [I don't have anything bright like this... well, why not dive in now?]

Blush-
Easy Manner - Light Dirty Peach

ED Eyeshadow-
Tall Dark and Handsome - Black with Pearl [I'm with the people who haven't worn black. My only black is in the Naked 2 palette and I'm too intimidated to use it. Again, why not dive in now? I'm also kinda suckered by the name. Too cute.]
A Natural Flirt - Soft Peachy Nude
Stolen Moment - Dark Taupe [I'll have to see swatches. If it's anything near what I envision, it'll be mine.]

Fluidlines- [my obsession]
Catch My Eye - cool taupe gray with dazzle pearl
Little Black Bow - charcoal with dazzle pearl
Feminine edge - pink mauve with dazzle pearl

And I'll let myself try one of the Kohl Powers, seeing which color I like best and is most original.

I also hope the pricing isn't too out of whack because of the packaging. If it's any higher than the MM collection, I'll be trimming down my wishlist. (Which I hope I'll be doing anyway...)

That's the nicest feature of the EDES: You can build them up to an opaque coverage but you can also blend them out to a sheer wash of color.

well then i guess i really should snag one. im excited for this collection even if my haul will be small. its like the few im getting just gets me all tingly inside lol

Sparkly black shadow is easier to deal with anyhow - sheering out matte black sometimes doesn't look quite right, like it starts pulling blue instead of just looking like sheer black.

btw, talking about sparkles, My MA and I were talking about how much we love the Face & Body pressed pigments and he was saying the rumor is they're coming back next spring/summer. Here's hoping in more colors!

Thanks for letting us know.

I saw most of the holiday collection today, the brush sets are so cute. I preordered some stuff already.

Oh would you please let us know the prices?

Does anyone know if it's possible to depot the edes?

Does anyone know if it's possible to depot the edes?

Saw this post from another member (crayolaforeyes) in the ED thread. Her edes was accidentally 'depotted' in transit.

here are some more close-up pics - the back of the shadow itself has nothing on it - it just has the indentations of the plastic meshing that is underneath in the actual pot itself where the shadow would sit on and some writing which is too faint for me to really read - the pot has plastic mesh with a plastic disc in the center - a very unusual attachment system!

I think these are more delicate than mes. I'd be scared to depot them and I've depotted all my mes. I didn't even try to depot my edes because of these pics.

Did anyone post any info on the coral/peach lip bag yet? i read everyhting last night while i was stalking for MM, but i cant really remember and i dont feel like going through the whole thread again...

 

[mel890]

Hi urmi, trying to remember the prices. The brush set I got was the tan colored one that was $49.50 the small mint colored compact was $39.50 and the glam over holiday compact was $49.50 and the brush roll was $40 might go back and add the lipgloss set but idk yet.

 

[Naughtyp]

went to the counter at nords and tried on Lickable and I love it lol so I'm ref getting the lip at. made friends with the manager he was so nice! beautiful eyes too he's going to call me n let me preview n pre order he said call him for any collection just MM he wasn't allowed to do that. I'm so excited lol you would think I don't need another bright pink Lippie but I do! I think this happened to me because I used to rarely buy makeup n colors I like always discontinue. so I figure I'll buy tons of similiar colors so that won't happen again OCD? yes lol I plan on getting a good haul from this collection! def need the color story on he purple lipgloss set and the. Coral lip set. I am buying the pink lip bag and outrageously fun, I'm the one blush and the purple lg set for sure, maybe Innocence and. coral lip bag.

 

[crystalis007]

So glad to see swatches for the lipsticks! I'm going to stick with Outrageously Fun and then pick some Extra Dimension shadows.

Someone please tell me that this collection will be more on the lines of a normal one such as Styleseeker in terms of availability. I want to get excited but am worried now after MM lol.

Has anyone ever tried to use the bright chromaline or fluidlines as lipliners? I`m thinking about the one in this col. and the ways I could use it

chromalines can be used in many different ways. i've used a lot of them on the lips and mixed some with cream blushes. they are pretty fun to work with.

For everyone talking about LICKABLE, it is def a must-have. It has been my favorite bright pink for years! Here is a throwback pic of me wearing Lickable....love it!

 

[aradhana]

Ok my list is finally the three blushes + the taupe fluidline. Possibly the black, but it'll depend how it compares wth blitz and glitz...I don't have that one but have had my eye on it for a LONG time! I'm on the fence about whisper of gilt....
