Marsala is actually an Italian dessert wine, while Masala is the chicken.

The wine is quite nice really!

And such a lovely color

A bit odd to have Marsala as the colour of the year. The three previous ones were my colours but Marsala... a lippies yes but clothes

And shadows!!!

I didn't pick up on that, but I'm still hungry for chicken masala.

I wouldn't mind a blush in the color of marsala along with shadows, lippies, etc.

With what other e/s colours would you pair it with, Erine?

Creams and red-browns like swiss chocolate and embark. You can use the marsala colour as your transition colour too if you want, as long as it's matte.

Chicken marsala is actually a classic 19th century recipe, featuring chicken cutlets with mushrooms in a Marsala wine sauce.

Masala refers to a wide variety of South Asian spice blends which can be used many ways, depending on the blend.
That redundantly named beverage "chai tea"... well, "chai" means "tea", so that's saying "tea tea", when what people really want is masala chai, tea with a particular spice blend, milk, sugar (no vanilla, dammit).

You were actually right, OctoberViolet. You WERE thinking of chicken marsala, see my post above.

So much reading to catch up on!!!

I am still kind of sad MAC never did a 40th Anniversary collection in 2014. I would have loved a collection of repromotes, with shades dating back from the 80's to the early 2000's. I would have loved if they released their products in the old packaging (rounded lipstick tubes, screw-on eyeshadow lids, bigger pigment jars) It would have been a beautiful blast from the past, even better than By Request.

I think you meant to say 30th Anniversary Collection, as MAC was born in 1984.
Yes I agree with you beautyescape, that was a missed opportunity for MAC.
Your suggestions for the collection are great I would have been all over it.

That would have been a wonderful idea. I am sure the idea was tossed around. Not sure why it did not come to fruition.

This would have been so amazing. Such a shame they didn't do anything for their anniversary. There are so many old shades I have heard of, but was too young and broke to have enjoyed purchasing. I would have taken advantage of some older stuff if they had done it.

I would've preferred an anniversary collection than some of the collections that have been released this year

Oops! Yes, I meant 30th haha. I am now being hopeful for a 35th Anniversary collection in 2019.

EXACTLY. A collection of shades that really expressed their vision for each period of their existence. They could have gone back and looked at the collections they did, the hard to duplicate items they had... Would have been an amazing idea. 2019 or bust!
