MAC x Robert Lee Morris (November 2, 2017)

[jennyap]

OK, I'm pretty sure we haven't heard anything yet about this:

MAC x Robert Lee Morris

Mattene Lipstick
Concourd Grape - Dirty Cool Mauve
Pumpkin - Warm pink (er, what?!)
Persimmon - Warm peach nude
Fig - Deepened reddened rose
Lychee - Soft nude pink
Pomegranate - Deep cranberry

I love mattenes but we've not seen too many in recent years. Would need the old hands to tell us if any of those are repromotes.

ETA there are blushes too although these are mostly repeats I think

Powder Blush
Peach - Bright clean gold
Linda - Soft pink/bronze
Rhubarb - Deep maroon

couple of colour descriptions don't seem to fit names, so as always take this info with a pinch of salt (although it does come direct from MAC)

i have at at least one pic - this is special packaging - but will post that tomorrow, getting late for me now. Will start a new thread for it then unless someone else wants to do the honours.

Thank you! I love mattenes!!! I want four so far swatches pending. I also like the rhubarb blush. Again depending on swatches.

 

[Naynadine]

Ah, was waiting for more info on this collection since we saw the pic of the brush (which I guess is part of this collection as well?). Thank you, Jenny!

I love Mattenes and the blushes sound pretty cool too, can't wait to see pics.

I'm interested in Concourd Grape, Fig, Lychee and Rhubarb. Linda is VERY out of place with these names, lol.

 

[elegant-one]

YES!!!! I love love Mattenes too!

 

[LV2EVOLVE]

I don't suspect the mattenes being repromotes. It used to be Potent Fig.

Oh wow, that packaging is hideous! Still won't stop me from buying the Mattenes though. But seriously MAC, can you stop with all the gold packaging?? I'd really like some different colors once in a while.

Thanks [MENTION=83713]arch[/MENTION] that saved me a job

He's a jeweller, makes a lot of quite sculptural gold pieces, so this packaging makes perfect sense for this collection.

I agree though that it is not at all attractive to me! Never mind the colour, the shape of those mattenes (which are normally an elegant slender tube) is ugly.

Yeah, I love the normal Mattene packaging.

 

[MRV]

Yay, mattenes! Love the 168, too, but the shape of the packaging... and they look too fat for my rack.

 

[Corally]

This packaging is just.... so ugly. Was interested in buying Linda but will prolly skip it now. Might sound silly but I can't stand it when something from a brand looks completely different (shape, etc) than normal.

Are the blushes the same size as the PLW powder? Or does the PLW powder come in the size of the regular blushes?

 

[Mac-Guy]

Do we have a release date? Hopefully it's coming out soon.

Blush and PLW powder are both listed as being 10g / 0.35 US oz

Mattenes!!! One of my two first purchases from MAC ever (other being Paint Pots). <3

I will not to let this weirdly shaped packaging dissuade me from checking these babies out -- and possibly checking out with them in my shopping cart.

I wonder if Linda blush is a repromote from... Julia Petit, I believe?

Not bad, though I prefer the regular size.

I think it is a repromote.

I think it is a repromote.
