C-Shock

[SandMantas]

Ooh, Ernie thank you so much for that!
I think I'll have to dig up my Overgrown and just de-pot it. Eyepopping is gorgeous, but I don't think I'd use it as much.
Hopefully Overgrown didn't get completely lost in my move back from the dorm. It has to be somewhere.

Bitter also looks quite lovely in those photos.

Hmmm....will definitely be getting Eyepopping sometime, but it's not on the priority list. Thank you so much for posting those comparison photos.

 

[juicyaddict]

thanks for this i just bought overgrown at my cco last time.

 

[Ernie]

You're welcome!
I'm a sucker for any green shadows, I have to buy them all.

How is Big T compared to MUF 83?

 

[sheaspearl83]

I went my local MAC counter today and were reserving for the C-shock collection and I must say the eyeshadows are beautiful if you love bold colors. I'm getting all of them....look out next weekend.

On e-bay:

After seeing the swatches of lipgelees by lizsybarite, I'm tempted to purchase Sugar Shock or She-Boom, even though I know the cool colours would contrast with my golden asian skintone.

....after seeing that picture up there ↑, I'm now horribly tempted to buy the silvered plum lipstick whose name escapes me at the current moment. It would look fantastic with my skintone. And I may just have to buy She-Boom!, clone of Cellopink sans glitter or no.

Dear god I'm going to be spending a shitload of money on this collection. I can't wait!

I guess we'll see!

I was wondering that too because in the EVE music video for "Tambourine" which features the entire C-Shock collection, the maid blends some blush on her and then applies some mascara in a blue bottle. It seems to have perhaps mislead your MA into thinking there was one being released? It certainly made me think there was gonna be a blue mascara in there somewhere.

I'm actually a big MAC mascara fan, and I've been meaning to get a blue so...here's to hoping! And WHY THE BLUE HELL ISN'T THERE A PRO STORE IN CHICAGO! Dear fucking god! MAC must just throw darts at a map of the US on a wall somewhere and wherever the dart lands they'll open a Pro store in the general area of the landing spot. That's the only method I can think of because dear god-- it's fucking CHICAGO! Houston I can sort of understand because this city is hot and annoying and jackassy but Chicago? To hell with that crap! Oh it needs to be the fourteenth already. I'm ready to spend an obscene amount of money! goddamn waiting.

ME TOO! I'm actually a big MAC mascara fan, and I've been meaning to get a blue so...here's to hoping!

SERIOUSLY! LOLing at your description of Houston!

I AGREE!!! Bring it on MAC, I'm waiting!!!!

I don't know...the way she was talking, it sounded like she and the other MAs were playing with it in the back...she said she was worried it was going to be a tough sale and that for the first week the collection is out, everyone is just going to wear it all the time in hopes to get some takers, haha. I guess we'll see on Thursday!

Agreed with Chicago lacking a pro store!

I am so happy I am moving back to Toronto, there there's a pro store on every street corner

OT, but.. really? I thought the only pro store was on Queen Street, with only 3 freestanding stores in the GTA (Scarborough Town, Yorkdale, Bloor Street). If there are more, please let me know b/c I hate having to trek so far for pro items!

 

[Cocktail_party]

^^to my knowledge there's only one PRO store here in Toronto and it's the one on Queen. However there are a bunch of freestanding stores all over the place

Besides the 3 that you just mentioned, there's another freestanding store in Cumberland Terrace (the underground mall for the bay/bloor subway). That's the only one I can think of off the top of my head but there's more =)

I consider Mississauga part of the GTA and the freestanding store at Sq 1 is a Pro Store. But that does not really help you since u live way east of here.

There is only one pro store, but I was being fecicious since Mac is a Toronto based company and there are a TONNE of stores all over the GTA

That's quite true, thanks to The Bay as well!

 

[SerenityRaine]

Before the MA gave me a sneak preview I was probably only goin to buy 5 things. Now, I hafta have every each one of them except Passionate. C-Shock has made me completely obsessed, I've been depotting and scraping other products out of their MAC container and transfering them into non-MAC container. I'm definitely buying everything & 3 Big T's.

 

[lemurian]

^^^ Could you elaborate on how Big T is different from Shimmermoss, Teal Pigment, etc.? For those of us who cannot see it in person before we buy
