So today I decided to email MAC to tell them that I was probably going to cry if they didn't bring back tendertones, they responded really quickly and this is what they said:
Thank you for writing. It is always a treat to hear from our loyal customers.
We are so pleased to be able to provide you with MAC quality and service online.
I really appreciate your feedback in regards to the MAC TENDERTONES. We value
our customer's opinions and strive to introduce collections and products that
meet their needs.
As you noted, we will not be featuring the Tendertones this Summer season.
However, we do have a great new lip product that we will be launching that
represents one of the lip colour trends for the season. The product is called
MAC SEE THRU LIP COLOUR.
The MAC SEE THRU LIP COLOUR is a sheer lip colour that imparts translucent,
see-thru colour. The long-wearing formula is made up of pigments suspended in a
gel that delivers a bold tint of colour. It contains ingredients to help keep
the lips feeling comfortable. It provides sheer, long-wearing, transparent
colour. It's perfect for someone who likes a comfortable, stain of colour with a
matte finish. This formula will launch in our A ROSE ROMANCE Collection that
launches On-line on April 21st, 2009. I think that you will really like this
new alternative lip product, for a natural lip colour. If you like a bit more
hydration than it offers alone, you can use it as a base shade with a MAC LIP
CONDITIONER. (This will create your own Tendertone look).
Please let us know how you enjoy this new product!
BLEHHH!!!!
I don't really think that theres going to be much of a similarity between my beloved tendertones and lip stains.Sorry. Especially because the main reason I like them is the de-freaking-licious scent.
So in sadness I've been sitting around studying, while sniffing one of my tendertones.
