MAC Brooke Shields Beauty Icon Collection (Oct 2, 2014)

[MeJaneYouTarzan]

was excited for the 15 palette, but the shade descriptions are not stoking my lust for it. wish they'd do a real proper cool toned neutral x 15 palette... I look like death in anything with red/bronze undertones. maybe pics/swatches will make me come around... but it'd better be awesome for $110.

I was told that the packaging was rubbery, kinda like the TR packaging. And that this is more of a Couture collection, hence the higher prices.

Now the packaging sounds cool

Interesting, thanks for the intel! I'll still be keeping my eyes out for more details on this one -- I have a feeling I'll either empty my bank account on it or it will be a complete skip!

unless swatches sway me

With sooo many collections coming out, I have no choice but to stick with buying lipsticks in AC and Matte. I'm about to give birth around this month so yeah, less $$$ for buying lipsticks!

Congrats!!!! It will pass, you'll have so much baby crap eventually you'll be able to buy all the lippies lol

I figured so much but it just doesn't sound very couture

Indeed....I will get the palette x15 for sure!

And the blush duo sounds very pretty too.Can' t wait to see swatches!

We'll it looks like the two lippies and the creme blush duo for me! If Scone comes in a nice compact, I may be tempted. Like I wasn't going to buy Corol from the PL collection, it just kinda jumped into my cart :shrugs:

How did I miss that there was a creme blush duo?!? I love creme blushes!

Sooo...in the collection description, which is where i got the original info from, it mentions there being a Cremeblend Blush duo. But when they finalized the collection, they switched it out for a CCB duo. So, yeah. It's a CCB duo instead. Still the same colours tho. It's the season for CCBs. Just wanted to update everyone on that. It's seems that many of this seasons products are still in production even to this date.

Looks like im passing because the finish of the lipsticks are not amplified nor matte. The lipsticks are all I wanted.

def more interested in the 15 palette. I don't have much MAC eyeshadows so this seems like a good place to start

Thanks Erin! I'm still on board for a CCB duo. It most definitely is the season for 'em!!

Hmm, I'd be more excited about cremeblend, but ccb in the same colors might still tempt me...I prefer the cremeblend texture though. Looking forward to swatches from this collection. Sounds like it will either be amazing or totally dupable

I think it's a skip. I don't get this being couture. I just don't see Brooke having expertise as a designer and none of the products are very intriguing.

Couture doesn't mean designer. Designer doesn't mean couture.

That's good--I was wondering why the x15 palette was a touch more than the perm ones. In addition to that palette, I'm guessing I'll go a little crazy for the lipsticks too. Brooke's coloring is close to mine, so I am willing to bet that these are classic colors are going to work well for me. At least I hope so!!

I don't see how it's really couture either. Brooke Shields is no longer the fashion so I don't even see how it can be connected to couture but guess we'll have to see.
