After thinking about it for a few minutes after I first posted, I think that MAC should just buy the idea off you, hire you as a collection designer/consultant, and put it into production! I would probably end up buying almost everything! I just love my candy/pastries. LOL

You are so sweet! Thanks so much!

That would be like a dream job for me! lol. I am certainly considering e-mailing the idea to them with such positive feedback. Them just making the collection would be enough for me! And maybe getting it for free

The concept revolves around the idea of the colors and textures associated with icing and cookie/candy/cake decorations.

I take it this collection would be non-fattening?

(LOVE the concept! It will be the fortunate and smart company that hires you when you graduate!)

Diabolique

The key to attaining a truly sensual, alluring look begins with the desire to think beyond conventional glamour. For those who revel in excess, who are unashamed in their desire to be truly decadent. Only the finest, most luxurious pigments may grace their face. Totally sinful, they are...Diabolique.

- Mystique (dirty creme with green pearl; veluxe pearl)
- Gaze (sheer champagne with silver pearl; frost)

lipsticks

- Queen's Sin (repromote)
- Diabolique (true berry wine with vampy red pearl; lustre)
- Hypnopout (muted coral with champagne pearl; amplified creme)
- Vicious (intense pomegranate; satin)
- Siren Song (pale creamy pink; lustre)

lipglasses

- Spectreglass (clear gloss with subtle gold and platinum pearl)
- Impure (soft mature tan with dirty bronze pearl)
- Nude Ambition (low candlelit beige with white pearl)
- Exhibitionist (gilded berry)

blushes

- Scantily (barely there pink; satin)
- Ethereality (cool coral with lilac pearl; frost)
- Vamped (wine-stained rose; matte)

mineralize skinfinishes

- Lightscapade (repromote)
- Teasily Done (rich bronze with silver, chocolate, and berry pearl)

And I started coming up with products, colors, clever product color names etc etc, similar to how MAC's themed color stories do. So in like 15 years or something, if I were working at MAC, I'd name Christina Aguilera as Icon number like...25 or whatever we'd be at. So an Icon Collection color story would be in order. And here are my hypothetical products... Dirrty Eyes Quad Blonde Bombshell - shimmery beige with gold frost (Frost) Trouble - emerald green with silver and gold glitter flecks (Velvet) Dirrty - chocolate brown with emerald green duochrome/frost (Veluxe Pearl) Chrome Yellow - Repromote (i loved the use of this in her Viva Glam look) Beautiful Eyes Quad Shroom -Repromote Sharptongue - Jet Black with pink glitter flecks (Velvet) Beautiful - Deep Carnation Pink (satin) Heartsong - Icy pearl ivory (frost) Lipstick Xtina - Juicy blue-red with gold frost (Frost) Baby Jane - Little girl pink with pearl (lustre) Fighter - Deep Eggplant (Satin) Overflow - Warm neutral brown with pink duochrome/frost (Frost) Lipglass Grown Woman - Clear gloss with reflected red pearl Unbreakable - Plum with pink pearl Stripped - Fleshy pink/brown Overjoyed - Hot Pink with Silver Pearl Blush: Hot Pants - Warmed up Hot Pink (matte) Hello, Lover - Neutral pink/taupe with pearl And that's my late night creative expression. What would your ideal color story be? I'm anticipating big ideas from all you MAC fanatics here!

I have a similar thread about this on the entertainment forum. Mine is picking ur own celebrity collection/color story. I chose Patti Labelle,Pat Benatar, Dita Von Teese( an entire collection), Marc Jacobs and Destiny's Children.

Re: What would your MAC theme be?

Mine would be MAC for Glittering Goddess (moi!) and MAC for Porcelain Beauties.

Glittering Goddess of course would feature mostly lustre e/s and tons of glittery and shimmery items! The blushes would be toned down though. However, there would even be glitter mascara.

Oooh baby. And the packaging will blind somebody when you're driving in your car and pop open that beauty powder compact!! heehee..Very modern and high fashion packaging and idea for this though. It wouldn't be extremely girly necessarily but more just about the beauty of the glitter!

Porcelain Beauties of course would be for all of us lovely ladies here at Specktra that have the lightlightlightttttt skin! It would have tons of beautiful and soft tones to really bright out our beauty. Vibrant greens, peaches, etc. Kind of a whole "pure" theme. My packaging for this would be like Heirlooms but even better. Very dainty, timeless, lace, golden and white with pink or black accents.

Re: What would your MAC theme be?

I was thinking about this in bed again last night.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND THEME. It'd be so amazing; really out there wacky yet sophisticated as MAC always is. Lucuious blues and reds. The packaging would be awesome too; could do the whole cards/Queen of Heart kind of look for it.

NEON/UV THEME. Bright, bright, bright! Colors for clubbing and nights out. All about the flashiness. UV and glow-in-the dark reactive makeup. Ohh yeah 8)

Lol I was gonna write a Disney princess collection too because I'd love it SO MUCH.

 

[0037sammie]

OH. MY. GOD.
This is such a cool idea, MAC should totally take notice and make these collections. Well, except for that paris hiltion one. Imagine if everyone ran around looking like her! *shudders*
Anyhoo, this is wicked, and if they were out in the shops I would have hit them by now =)

Re: What would your MAC theme be?

[aziajs]

Re: What would your MAC theme be?

I would love to see Emilio Pucci and MAC do something. I'll have to think of names and colors. I'd also love to see MAC do a collection inspired by technology with names like Flash Drive, BETA, RAM, and more clever ones as well.
