Sneak Peek: MAC x Toledos Collection Photos & Swatches

I'm wondering if she forgot to add the blush swatches.

Thanks, Nay!

OMG Kindergarten Red and Oxblood lipglass are beautiful!

Opera is just another plain red, boo. I wonder how the rest of the lipsticks will look like. I made up my mind about getting only Sin but I think I'll add Oxblood on the list depending on swatches. I don't remember Stars n Rockets being sheer; the purple quad looks like it's a dud, but the green one swatches nice. I wonder how the blue quad will perform. I don't care if I have to cut class in order to buy this collection online, but I'm so hyped despite all the red lipsticks.

Maybe it's just me, but that does not look like the same blush to me.

I agree, I really like the promo pic better. Where did the beige go?!?! Maybe they vary in color?

Hm, I doubt it.
I was really looking forward to it based on the promo pic, the lighter shade was even described as pale nude, but this one is just pink. Oh well, money saved.

It could be just her lighting. Her swatches (sometimes) look brighter than the actual color (i.e. FNF, Salon Rouge, etc.).

Yeah, I've noticed that A LOT. I was really surprised how dark Salon Rouge is in person compared to the swatches. Opera may be darker in person, but I think it will still be way lighter than than Salon Rouge. It looks like a very basic staple red that's been done overly done. I also noticed the the swatches of shadows on her sight sometimes look much warmer than in person... French Clay looks like such a nice color, but I think in person it will be very gray.

It's too bad. KR could have been such a beautiful blush. It's fading off my list too... I'm sure something better will replace it!

I hope Karen will post some swatches soon.

Loving the green eyeshadow palette! KR is kinda disappointing though

The swatches are very helpful Glammy! I Decided to skip this blush from the collection.

:fluffy: :fluffy:

Thank you my dear glammy 

Thank you for the swatches, glam!   I can justify buying Ripe Peach.:haha:  I like the idea of ombre blushes anyways, so getting the three is a coughmustcough for me.

u are welcome ladies

So much for Opera being a dark red!!! Definitely not what I expected it to be.

I know right!

I thought that at first. So I went to see her swatches from the Heirloom Mix collection and her Opera looks more like Sparks of Romance than Salon Rouge or FNF. I will wait and see what other swatches look like but it's no big deal if it's just another red... money saved!

Hmmm.... The promo is definitely more beige than pink!

I actually quite like the packaging design (with the red edges) than the compact design!! :haha:

 

[Jennifae]

I think I'm gonna TRY to limit myself to 2 blushes (RP and KR) plus 2 lipsticks (Oxblood and possibly Victoriana).
