MAC Après Chic Collection Discussion (December 2012)

It's nice that those patterns got broken. It makes it less predictable

Maybe the big summer mineralize collection will also come out sooner?

If the summer Mineralize came out sooner I would be a happy camper!! I really mostly wear my MSFs in the summer, plus the range of colors in the collections always look best on me with my tan, which starts to fade away come September.

I agree! I'd love if it came out in May or something so I can wear the products for the whole summer rather than a couple of months

May is exactly when I'd want it too!!!

I'm almost always underwhelmed with the standard MAC summer collection - it usually feels just a little too formal for what I think of as summer makeup. The Mineralize collection, on the other hand......oh lordy, I pretty much buy the entire gigantic collection every year

. Not only the MSFs, MBs, and MES, but I'm usually majorly crazy about the lipsticks and cremesheens - they always turn into my go-to daily lippies for the year.

I love MES, MSFs and MBs, but they do always feel more like summer makeup I'll probably start wearing my HC goodies more in April 2013 if the 2013 collection doesn't come out early!

I need some of the lipsticks ( I love the names, funny ! ), probably 3
I need some lipsticks from the Strength collection, probably 3 too

This is my M.A.C list, I don't think I need something else ?

" Après Chic " sounds really promising ! And " Strength " too, not to mention others !

I spoke to my MUA today and she mentioned that the lip balms are gorgeous. She said that they are like a cremesheen and balm combined in one. Moisturizing and beautiful. I wasn't thinking about these but her description of them has definitely peeked my interest.

I am curious if they will taste like vanilla or the kiwi strawberry like the tender tones? Any recon data on that???
AND, when will the swatch fairy make her visit? I am getting stir crazy here.

 

[MACina]

Me too.....but I hope for vanilla!

Kiwi strawberry is "reserved" for Tender Tones LOL

Me too! I hope it's vanilla. I don't have any tendertones so I don't know how it exactly tastes but I HATE kiwi and artificial strawberry.

Normally I would agree with that but the Tendertone taste is very pleasant. And only the taste of artificial banana would make me not want to try these. I am predicting a grand slam with myself getting all the available colors offered.

Spoke to a MUA today and gave her a list of items i'm looking to pick up when this collex launches. She says she tried the lip balms out at their session class and they are really creamy like a cremesheen they give only a slight tint of color to the lips but are very moisturizing. They sound amazing! I just hope it's not being hyped up and then turns out to be a flop. So far two MUA's have had nothing but positive things to say about the lip balms. We shall see!

I recently read somewhere that NARS Luster blush is similar to Stereo Rose MSF. Does anyone have both and can compare?

 

[Merula]

Whaaaa... Noo! I already have Lustre, so I've been googling. Temptalia did a comparison swatch....

Pro Longwear Eye Liner swatches&review (german):

It's faaaabulous...: MAC Pro Longwear Eye Liner 'Rich Experience' und 'Night Trail'

She really likes them, they are really long lasting. But difficult to blend/smudge.

 

[MACina]

Thank you Naynadine!!!

Night Trail looks very pretty

i really like night trail

I don't know if it's my monitor or what, but Stereo Rose doesn't look half as orange in real life as it looks in T's pictures...

That could be a good thing--less smudging L8R

I love both of them but Rich Experience is the brown I think I have been waiting for (Stubborn Brown and Molasses were not quite dark enough, and yes those are Pearl Glides, so these may be different, I am glad to see some shimmer in there and not matte brown or navy)
