So, we're all experts, let's see what we can come up with!

If you were to design your own cosmetic collection, what would you put in it? What company would you get to do it? Sets or singles?

Let your imaginations run wild...

Lots of matte l/s with every kind of red you can think of. I think I would do both sets and singles. I love pink but I know not everyone shares my love for it so I think I would do black and pink packaging instead a all pink like I would like.

Since Inglot is my favourite brand I'd have them make my design. I love black and purpleish colours.

e/s:
black with purple-pink duocrome shimmer
dark purple with blue-purple shimmer
midtone purple matte
light purple with green shimmer
black with green shimmer


gloss:
black with purple-pink duocrome
redish purple with pink shimmer
dark blood red with blue duocrome

l/s:
blood red with blue duocrome
intensive black with red shimmer
semi transparent purple with bright red shimmer

packaging black - purple - silver
e/s for the magnetic palettes so no special packaging there

My collection may be boring to some but it would be perfect for me :) An everyday wearable collection that I would be reaching for again and again. A palette of warm neutrals, matt and other. Lips in pretty pinks and blushes in all finishes and colors! I love luxurious packaging! It would be cool to see some packaging with a glamorous vintage feel.

My collection would consist of: eyeshawdow all loose pigments lipstics-creamy, full of moisture, intense color(nothing sheer here) Brows- two shadow pans with angled brushes Brushes- I love good makeup brushes so I would only make uncut natural fibers with wooden handles, with a nice lacqured finish. Primer - I have very oily skin so I would create a primer that is matte and stays matte, at least a 6 hour window for touch ups. For the dry girls I would want something that had moisture but not clogging and lots of spf

You need to get a job with Mac NOW. This is an excellent, well-thought out collection and I think I'd buy almost all of it.

i could think of a ton of themes.

celebrity-wise i'd like to see lauren conrad for mac. i'm a big fan of hers. big focus on feminine and clean. rose gold MAC logo and her signature with a pink/slightly coral heart. everything in an ivory packaging (which should look very lux) with some kind of feather or flower design near the logo, or have a flower or bird/feather design somewhere on the package (bottom half of lipstick like the dots on heatherette). the design should be in mint, pink, + peach.
-lipsticks: retro red, nude natural pink (like nars dolce vita), lickable (bright pink),
-lipglasses: light pink, coral, gold shimmer,
-repackaged teddy eye pencil
-eyeshadows: goldbit (light golden sparkly highlight), matte neutrals (light, medium, dark- similar to the ud naked basics palette), shimmery peach, a darker/more pigmented honey lust type color, shimmery lilac color, and then just stick sweet lust or pink venus (light shimmery pink) in the collection as well.
-BIG focus on liquid eyeliner
-retractable eyebrow pencil that comes in a few shades
-compacts- two blushes (one rose, one peach). beachy bronzer- something that echoes laguna beach.
-repackaged mascaras
-nail polishes - ballet pink type color, rose gold, dark grayish mint.



i'd also like to see stevie nicks for mac or nars. mac would be funny because (fleetwood) mac. call it crystal visions and make it lots of sparkly magical stuff!

All these collections sound beautiful!^ MAC should totally do a MAC x Specktra collection ;)

I can't think of a full collection either, only single products here and there
001_unsure.gif
It would be a mac collection, the packaging would be metallic gold with light pink logos and writing. Where the lipstick tubes are usually silver they would be pink and where they are black they would be gold. It would be based on the rococo (or is it baroque?) interiors of French palaces and in particular the palace of Versailles. (I'm not an interior designer or historian so please no one get mad if I get my time periods mixed up haha). It seems that make up back then would have been that white powder stuff, with some rouge and lips would tinted red with god knows what. I would base it loosely on this, and have the focus on cheeks and lips.The model for the promo pic would be porcelain-skinned, and made up with (obviously) the blushes and lipsticks from the collection, with winged liner to make it slightly more modern. She would be surrounded by roses and gold framed rococo furniture with flouncy dresses and all that amazing stuff! I'm an NC35 myself, but this sounds like it would end up being suitable for much paler skin tones (oops!)

The names of these products would just be random french words (LOL) because I'm rubbish at thinking up names and everything sounds pretty in French anyway!

MSF (probably inaccurate as I think they preferred a matte look, but the colours just sound perfect together)
Rococo- A creamy, gold-y, peachy-pinky melange. (The creamy colour would be similar to NARS albatross in that it looks white in the pan, but leaves a golden sheen once applied to the face). Once swirled together it would be a peach pink highlighter with gold shimmer. Also, it would be in swirls like the heavenly creatures collection!

Blush (shaped like roses like the milani rose blushes)
Bonbon- Matte red that applies fairly sheer
Amour- dark pink, but not fuschia or magenta. more neutral pink with hints of brown

Lipgloss
Coquette- pale pink with gold shimmer.
Enchanté- a pigmented neutral pink suitable for deeper skin, like a lipgloss version of Mehr. (I feel like Mehr is the NC30+ girl's version of 'Angel')

Lipstick
Bijoux- rosebud pink (matte)
Cherie- a universally flattering red with a matte but sheer finish (I realise how impossible this sounds haha)

Now that I've typed it up it sounds quite boring LOL.
Also, just googled and it turns out Mac have already released a 'rococo' collection, around 10 years ago, oh dear

Oh, great idea. I don't know where I'd start lol. But there would be some awesome pigmented blushes and glosses. My packaging would be something unique, with texture and prob my daughters fave colors...pink & purple. lol
