Early Buzz Regarding MAC Collections/Products Coming in '09 - Discussion

[NeonKitty]

I had it in my wishlist and somebody offered me their backup. Try that route. It'll cost you more than retail tho.

Thanks.

I wasn't talking about the packaging or anything either... I think you misunderstood me.

Anyways names like Danity and Pleasantry don't sound "space-y" compared to like Spaced Out or Femme-Fi.

We're good.

I think I'll be forced to scribble spacey names on masking tape and stick em over my regular blush names. Like "Asteroids of Fear" over Sweet as Cocoa and "Alien Splooge" instead of margin. But I'm weird like that

Spaced out looks great but what's so different about x-rocks? Looks kind of like a run of a mill contour shade, except for the name and the uber sleek orange packaging. But I generally miss the bandwagon bus on the big hits.

X-Rocks is actually a gorgeous pigmented rosy bronze on me. It rivals some of my NARS and JC blushes. It's quite lovely.

I guess I should take a closer look at the swatches then so i can add it to my 238942753876824760244 item long lemming list, sigh.

Spaced out is awesome but X-Rocks is ever better!!!! Its like a bronzey rose mauve plum that adjusts to everyones skin tone. Its one of my favorite blushes!

I am SO excited for the BLACK collection!
That 'black tinted lipstick' HAS to be part of it!

I have never tried Spaced Out or X-Rocks blushes before and I do want to get them since I've been eyeing on them for awhile. I'd just wish that I was into MAC sooner.

 

[SmokeSignal16]

^ I know I could kick myself for some of the things Ive missed out on!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Yep. I even missed out on Heatherette and Fafi and glad that I got some items from the collection.

 

[SmokeSignal16]

Oh yeah, I remember there was a lingerie collection at one point and I could kick myself I didn't let my mom get something from that! lol

But Nakey Honey is in special packaging? Cool Heat wasn't?
Does that make a difference? lol I haven't a clue!

hmm when i checked out macpro.com they def. were not there. I even did a search on the page for the word "gold" with no blond's gold coming up. Maybe it just isnt listed on the Canadian version of the macpro website. Thanks for the info though, now i won't be stressing to get another one!

They can be a little tricky to find, because they are listed under "rich metal pigments" away from the regular ones.
Some screen shots to help

I'm really excited for this black collection. I'm not big on black lip stuff for me personally, but I can appreciate it on others. black eye stuff on the other hand- I can't wait!

thanks to all the lovely specktra boys and girls who have been filling us in with this info & pics so far
