Black Milk rocks! I have maybe 10 pair? I want more!!!
I have a LOT (like 100+ pieces I was addicted) I've been buying from them for 3 years now I love that they make all sorts of clothes so I can integrate it into my outfit most days, but I've gotten better so I only make an order every few months now. My other vice is clothes and shoes, it's worse than my makeup addiction haha.

After seeing the swatches I think I want both powders I'm a sucker for pretty shimmery powders like that! I also want royal ball and happily ever after and I might grab a lipstick and/or lipglass for my mom because she loves cinderella.

Mystery Princess looks so pretty! And Royal Ball looks nice there as well

I did not remember to look at xsparkage's site; I agree, I am also always trying to find bloggers which are very fair, because the colours look different again, and it is easier to figure out whether a colour runs cool or warm. Vampyvarnish is another blogger with very fair tone, but she did not have swatches up yet.

xsparkage's pics confirm my earlier thought that my stash of UD neutrals and some MACs like Velllum, Creamy Bisque etc will do fine, and Omega is too warm, Satin Taupe might be borderline warm, thus both not for me; though Stroke of Midnight looks extremely pretty, Maybe it'll be re-released in a different palette or as single shadow later on.

I want the loose pigment purple color and I think I pick up one lipstick for sure. I'm really wanting the eye shadow palette but I don't need another palette. And I think I'd rather save money for future collections. That said I'm super excited!

I'm thinking of getting both powders, the eyeshadow palette and a lip gloss. I already have satin taupe though, should I skip the palette? Hmmm.... Do u guys think this collection will sell out quick?

I somehow think that Disney moderates them a bit too heavily and restricts what they can and can't do since it is something that is going with a specific movie that theyve spent money and time on marketing. It was the same with Maleficent, it was like they had this strict guideline that allowed for them to get a big cooperation with Disney but sort of stunted creativity. It's just my guess though, but I wouldnt be surprised if that was part of the deal. 
I wonder if that's true since the SephoraxDisney collection was such a rousing hit. They did three princess's with very different aesthetics and (imaginary) makeup preferences and it seemed like they captured the idea so well. Maybe it's different since its a live action, but this collection seems safe to the point of being surprising. Even for fair ladies. Of course they'll get the MAC fans and Disney fans money, but the lip products alone are so generic I think a lot of people would feel like they could pass.

I think the collection is marketed toward those new to buying department store makeup, or else Disney fans. I have to wonder if Disney didn't pay lots to get those logo's on there, and MAC is going to benefit by getting exposure to a whole new set of customers. My completely wild guess is that items will sell out more over the shopping weekend (not the usual online ready, set, go).

Like someone who is out at the stores getting spring clothing (who doesn't already buy lots of makeup) will stop by a store/counter to see what this is about, get a little makeover and buy things then.

Just guessing of course.

I'd imagine they had more free range since the SephoraxDisney collections were made more general for the princesses, not for a specific movie with very specific branding. I am really fair and even though I enjoy a no-makeup-makeup look this just feels so bland.

So far I'm feeling Royal Ball, the palette and BP. Maybe Reflects Pearl too but I have a white/slightly iridescent glitter from Illamasqua and there's only so much white glitter a girl needs.
