Just went through the photo gallery and everyone is looking good in their lippies!

I'm so sad that Nordstrom decided to ship these earlier than the 23rd. They were "delivered" to my front door on the 11th. Unfortunately, I was out of the country on vacation so I missed the delivery and the package wasn't there when I got home. Our leasing office doesn't have it either. I called Nordstrom and they told me the collection launched early in error and some orders had gone through. She refunded me since obviously they can't fulfill the order. Guess I will be stalking this collection after all.

that sucks sorr that happen to you

I'm thinking about getting PC. I sure hope it does not look to dark on me. We shall see.

You can create a stain or build the color a little bit at a time with a brush. I'm going to go that and top with gloss

I can see PC as the new Heroine.

=O I've been on a serious no buy and have been ignoring MAC/ the upcoming collections, but omg I'm so glad that I found out about this one (I saw T posting about Hautecore, and ended up running back to Specktra to see what was going on) PC looks like the blue-based purple I've been dying for MAC to release! I can't believe it's finally happened :,) Both PC and Hautecore look beautiful on you ladies, those are the 2 that I'm definitely planning on getting, I'll have to swatch the others (the red looks pretty too) but since my budget is limited and the other 2 lipsticks look a bit more dupeable to me, I think I may end up picking up a lipgloss instead~ ah I really can't wait til the 26th!

Pro members, do you guys think this may go up online tomorrow?

I wish, but I'm not holding my breath. I can't decide if I should order online (my usual, since I hate the craziness of releases in stores) or just suck it up, get up bright (dark?) and early, and go to the mall when they open at wtf-o'clock on the 26th to get my lippies. These are the tough decisions in a makeup hoarder's life!!

I agree on the tough decisions. Lol What happened to early pro releases? I feel like there hasn't been one in a while.

Does anyone know if you can get multiples of the same lippie on the launch date? I know they limited the riri collections to one of each per person but I'm not sure if that's for every collection!

They only limit it on special releases (that has been my experience)...the highly anticipated ones like RiRi. Not sure if PC would fall under that category.

I have a pic of PC and Dominate but it won't let me upload

Went to go see Combichrist on Saturday and busted out my Hautecore.

Yes, you should be able to get multiples. I believe MAC's policy is a maximum of 4 of the same product per customer. Riri was a whole different game, lol.

Like [@]ChosenOne[/@] said, it's a limit of 4 of the same item.

Just got the chance to put on the four lipsticks today. Was super excited about how beautiful SK is and wanted to come here to rave about how people needed it... until I read the two posts comparing SK to Diva. Told myself it couldn't be (haven't touched my Diva in a while). So I also swatched it against Diva and FOD. Guess what? Diva and SK are identical on my arm and my lips. I kinda cried in the bathroom for a few minutes clutching my lipsticks. I would say if you have Diva, skip SK.



Just SK on. I'm about a NC25 for reference.


Ignore the messy application; Diva is on the left and SK is on the right. Diva might be very slightly darker, only very very slightly. And I say this after staring at myself in the mirror for a good 10 minutes squinting.


FOD, SK, Diva. FOD is definitely browner and darker. SK and Diva have the same undertones. The only reason why Diva might be a little darker in picture is because of lighting. I swear they are identical on my skin.

I can swatch the rest of the punk couture lipsticks sometime, if you guys don't mind my potato quality photos and horrible hormonal breakout. Instigator is beautiful. Hautecore applied like a dream on me, despite the reviews about patchy application. I'm still not sure if PC works for my skin though.

I'd love to see more swatches of the other ones when you get a chance.

Thank You! I may skip SK after all. I can b2m for Diva at any time. And you look wonderful btw, I didn't notice a breakout, until I saw that you typed it in the last line. I didn't go back to look either.
