I know!! I’m shocked. I’ve been looking for a decent review because I’d like a couple but can’t find any posts. It’s crazy, every site used to be all MAC reviews.

Is anyone else finding it to be difficult these days to get good swatches and reviews for new MAC products? I hate watching videos. I honestly can't stand listening to most of those idiots talk for 20 minutes. I miss when T used to have swatches up before products were actually released. I am interested in the dazzleshadow liquids, but can't seem to locate any good review/swatches.

I don’t really see any of the youtubers I watch use it anymore. Unless they are creating a lipstick with them lol.

It makes me kind of nostalgic, all my favorite youtubers years ago used to run to get every MAC collection to review ??????

Are there any Youtubers left that still use mac?

Shame :(( I think mac still makes pretty good products. I used to enjoy youtube so much and stalking specktra for new collection launches. Honestly I'm so over Youtube these days.

How do we bring MAC craze back??!! lol

Yes, stalking is usually unnecessary now. And MAC is still my favorite all around brand.... if I could only use one brand ever again it would still be MAC (sorry NARS I still love you).

It just isn’t as popular as it used to be. Too many brands took on the themed collections that used to be unique to MAC. Meanwhile MAC tries to make money off of influencers and celebs and I couldn’t care less.

I totally agree with you.
I just watch old videos these days and in a way it's good for me because I don't need to buy more stuff. I already purchased all those MAC products or they are long gone lol

The only down side is it seems the lipsticks are only available in the respective influencer’s country. ie right now Patricia Bright’s and Genevieve’s are available right now but only in the UK, and I kinda wanted them lol. I’m excited to see Nyma Tang’s and whomever else we get here in the US

Yes, that's so irritating. I want the color. I don't care about the influencer. There were only 2 I wanted last time and they weren't available in the US.

Just like last time they did this.

Yup! Pretty much why I have been ignoring this campaign too...truly not a fan of the "influencers."
same. tbh I don't care for any of them and they certainly don't make me want to buy more. I do appreciate swatches and honest reviews though.

No lipstick for me... I don't live in any of the countries these people are from. Same like last time.

There are still hundreds of lipstick shades I still CAN get, from lots of brands. Current obsession is Smashbox, their creams are wonderful and their mattes are not drying!!!!!! YSL is obsession worthy as well.

I don't understand MAC's strategy to release local products from influencers in their respective country only. As social media connects the world, and everybody can watch Youtube or Instagram from everywhere, it really doesn't make sense.

There must have been a massive change in their marketing department as MAC is heading in a very different direction of what MAC used to be. Hopefully they will get their act together and save MAC.
