MAC x Archie's Girls (Betty & Veronica) Collection Discussion (February 2013)

[MRV]

I'm getting less lippies than I initially thought: only Betty Bright and Daddy's Girl, plus maybe the corresponding Betty's gloss. Then Betty's blush and Pearlmatte, and maybe Veronica's too. Betty's quad maybe, although I have 2 shades already, but I feel so naked if I dont get e/s from a collection. One pigment, hopefully not more. And maybe some accessories.

I have to make a list of all these collections though to see the big picture!

 

[MACBarbie18]

My list: Prom Princess Blush Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte Powder Boyfriend Stealer Lipstick Feeling So Good Lipglass Spoiled Rich Eyeshadow Quad Magic Spells Pigment Oh Oh Oh Lipstick Lucky in Love Pigment I might get the mirror and make-up bag depending on funds! Seems I'm definitely team Veronica

 

[Debbs]

Woohoo a Nordies note on da way 2 add to my Mac e card.........but can $120 do it????? I need to save for the other collections. Now I kno why Mac don't want us to kno stuff early.........so we go all out on the collections that are now available instead of planning for the near future ones, lol. Its a logic I wud certainly understand

 

[singer82]

Most of my list is maybes. I just need swatches to compare what's already in my stash. So I hope we get some before this appears online.

 

[Pretty Honeybee]

Hmmmm. I might cut a few things from my list after the new info with the fashion sets. :nods:

When are fashion sets coming out and any exciting colors??

 

[luvlydee]

If it werent for the packaging/theme i would skip this collection. But i will get 1 vero lipstick and 1 betty lipstick and 1 pearlmate. Not sure which one until the swatches

 

[erine1881]

Still just cream soda blush (x2 and depotted!) and the pigments (repotted). Adios cheesy packaging!

 

[veronikawithak]

Ronnie Red
Betty Bright
Cream Soda (maybe)

Aaaand I'm between the Flatter Me Pearlmatte (golden peach base with coral hearts) and Shell Pearl BP (light pink with gold pearl) from the Year of the Snake collection.. I'm already thinking about both of the Pearlmattes from Baking Beauties too.. so many face powders.

 

[Jol0]

Does anyone think Ronnie Red will be close to Red Racer??

Skipping the accessories for sure.maybe the brush set. Skipping pigments,nail polish,and most of Betty. Veronica has me wanting all her products! Can't waitttt to see swatches!!!

 

[Genn]

I'm hoping I stick to Betty's quad, Daddy's Little Girl, Girl Next Door, Lord it up (been wanting that anyway), Flatter me and Veronica's blush. I'm trying to not end up with blushes or l/g that will get ignored. I still have a Crew from Hey Sailor I've never used so one of the pearlmattes may have to go to.

Wow, looking at it that's a lot. I also want a face powder but I am going to wait until I can actually see it. I will get one blush but I am also undecided on the color.

FYI, My macys was not taking pre-orders but they were making appointments and mine is not until Saturday, the day after the release. I think they will be out of most stuff then so I will probably check again next week and see if they are taking orders then.

 

[Lipstickdiva420]

This collection is very pricey I think I will cut down as well because of other upcoming collections.

[Icecaramellatte]

I got 2 cards in the mail for two different stores. One is having the event and one is having a makeup lesson. I signed up for both today but now I'm not so sure if I should go. I see Sweet Something is gone. That was the main lip color I wanted. My interest in the purple quad is waning and I'm not so sure if the Betty quad is interesting enough. Well, there are still the pigments. But there are so many upcoming collections that sound more promising.
