Why they always do this to the matte lip collection...
Seemed too good to be true. Quite a few of these new shades are the kind that sell out incredibly fast in LE collections because MAC has nothing similar in their perm range eg. If they make a colour like Men Love Mystery permanent, they won't ever be able to release a LE DG/LJ type shade with the same hype surrounding it.

unfortunately! I wish Mac could make some popular products perm and try a different strategy. Silly hypes all the time. I know one cannot really compare Mac and Chanel when it comes to the number of LEs, but I really like Chanel's approach (making some items LE and making some perm, even if they leave the perm collection some years later).

I am an addict. I just went in store to look at Bb creams (though I do not need one yet) and I came out with Pink Pigeon, I usually go straight to the mattes on display and I picked it up because I thought it was pretty, checked the name and saw it was PP which I didnt have and swatched it and it looked so good! I compared it next to CYY and it was different enough for me, my cousin LOVES this shade, I decided to go for it. No regrets! lol...this will be my last lipstick purchase until the end of May/June...maybe :haha:
Pink Pigeon is such a lovely color! It's the first color that got me going to Mac. I saw one of my favorite bloggers wearing it. reminds me I need to get out more of my pinks.

According to the color story, all are perm
I'm so confused now. So are all these going to be perm?

Or are certain ones going to be LE and the others perm? I have this sneaky feeling the LE ones will be Royal, Whirl, Stone and MLM. I'm going to have to be on my game plan if so. I had hoped to B2M for a few of these.

Forget it, I'm going to stalk and purchase Runway Hit and Steady Going as if they were LE. I missed them last time and I'm not going to let that happen again lol

In the book, they are listed as perm. On the website images posted, none of the lipsticks currently have a triangle (meaning LE)...sooo imo they are permanent. Still though perm, I'd treat the situation as le....pick up what you want now, better safe than sorry to have missed out. I know MAC has been tricky lately :sigh:

I'm recalling last years bunch were said to be all perm, then there were a couple or so which were LE but it was never clear which couple, then some of the perm did sell out at original launch and some folks had to wait for restock. Best strategy then would perhaps be to get the ones most desired treating them as LE as Dolly says. Great marketing strategy to keep folks guessing so they will buy them all.

Yep that's what I'm going to do! When the Retro Matte collection came out I only had 1 MAC lipstick and even though I wanted them I didn't buy right away, when I finally decided to pick up Flat out Fabulous it took me a while to get my hands on it because all the RMs were sold out!

This is my first time back to specktra in a few weeks and this is the first thread I clicked on. I saw the descriptions and almost fainted and then I saw the pictures and almost had a heart attack! My body is ready for this collection!
Hey welcome back Coco!
