:yahoo: :nanas:  Those bananas really explain my heart after seeing those swatches Spanky!!! I'm screwed.
Crease or no crease girl, I don't give a damn! I won't tell u what I told my girl about how I was truly feeling upon playing with these puppies, but they are so gorgeous in person with their little pearlized pigments & all, you gonna flip! So get ur bananas & hunt these bad boys down! GO BANANAS! GO BANANAS! They r so cute...make me smile when I see them! Did u get the red lip bag??? I didn't get all weak in the knees when I tried it on, but there are so many reds coming out, I think I'll find something to take it's spot! Hope u are great! (Akward phase my a--, u rock!)

I was going to skip this (yeah like I skipped $150 worth of Hey Sailor LOL) but these swatches have sold me. I love the L'oreal infallibles, can't resist anything like those. I hope Electroplate doesn't pull blue on me - I'm a total gray eyeshadow ho' and feel compelled to get every one of them that comes out but so many of them end up looking light  blue on me, and it's not my best look.... I think I'm in for the champagne colored one, Superwatt, and maybe Electroplate and Coil.
LmcMullen, I hear u about the skipping. Sounds like u skipped HS like I did HC. I just wasn't sure about the HC til I saw them in person... It will be interesting to see how Electroplate pulls on you. It is so gorgeous, I can't even describe it! The champagne one is pretty, but Electroplate, Superwatt, Highly Charged & Blacklit were so pretty...it's really hard for me to say that I didn't like one of them. I just know that Dynomo won't work for me, which is a bummer, but I have others to happily take its spot. Like the Chartreuse color, that is not anything I would ever think I'd want, but I just could see all the funky possibilities, so I said what the heck! Can't wait to hear how or if u like them.

electroplate pulled kinda pink on me. that was one I was least interested in beforehand, but now everything's changed after swatching! the pink one reminded me of stars and rockets, except without too much blue in there.... I wore coil and super watt OVER today's makeup (laziness meets excitement)....the colors are very blendable and they seemed to have stayed put over the course of the evening, in crazy humid weather. tomorrow I'll try fashion circuit.

I think I can imagine what you told her!! Watched a video of the red lip bag and wasn't impressed with it, but seeing it in person could sway me. But you are right, tons of reds coming out! Hope you're doing better, and thanks I appreciate that!

Brilliantly Lit would make a great base for Rated "R" Starflash e/s!! Will definitely get that and Fashion Circut once it launches on MAC's website.

Hi Baghdad81, I know were wondering about these being the Illustrared ES. They aren't. Honestly, Superwatt and Electroplated are two of my favorites! Even if u can't get any of these, MAC's been kicking' ass & takin' names with some cool products, textures & colors. There will plenty nore 'must haves' in the future. I used to never buy any LE stuff, not on purpose, it just happened that way. I hope things get better for ya'!

These are already out here in Canada, and they feel totally awesome! I stopped by my MAC counter, and was taken aback when they were out on display! I was like :/ :O Overall, I'm gonna skip cause I have colours in my stash that are similar/ the same to the colours that are being promoted. I can post pictures if you'd all like? I only took a couple with my Android phone, though it only saved the photo I took of them in their pots, but it didn't save the swatches so I can go back Monday and post them Monday night :) I'm busy studying for my genetics midterm, otherwise I would've gone tomorrow :p lol.

Tee Hee Hee. I can't help it, this location is an area where people are too stuck on themselves, image is everything to them & I'm just a woman from the burbs who loves my SA & great MU. People were like, it's all over ur arm & I said 'really? Oh no! Must wash it off before someone sees me like this" (sike). I don't care, I don't caught up in those standards. I'm me & I was happy just to be there today & that's what people don't get. Things have been so bad that I honestly don't care what anyone thinks of how I look-MU or not. There is so much in my life that isn't going well for me, that perhaps a funky violet LS will make me smile more. Some older woman was like 'those LSs look horrible on you'. I said, 'well, I'm not wearing any MU right now but I know I can pull them off, without a doubt!' (if u don't have anything nice to say to a STRANGER WHO DID NOT ASK UR OPINION you shouldn't say anything at all. YES, I'm speaking to you Buckhead Betty who still gets her hair 'set' once a week.. Meanwhile another girl stopped me & said she loved the LS on me. Either way & with no swaying from the crowd, the 2 LE EL LSs are hot & I think there are a lot of people on here who might like 1 or 2 of these LS to as the Violet one might fill the longing for a beautiful Violet matte or a cool Violet shade we've missed in LE Launches from the past. If I want to wear a crazy purple LS & u don't like what I got on, I don't care, because I don't know u & vice versa as a matter of fact, I'll take 2, because the Purple one especially is so out of my comfort zone but I really feel I can pull it off! In fact to the older lady who said no to both, I say 'I'll take 2 of each' LOL. Sorry for the rant. It's like the talk of MU 'Rules' a lot of it is BS in my opinion. Where what u like & what makes you happy. When u notice crinkly eye skin, perhaps it's time to rethink the placement of the product, but don't get caught up in the 'no shimma' after 40 rule'. It's all in how u wear it, what condition ur skin is in & how it makes u feel! That's why MAC is great, they don't really care about the rules... I'm done bitching. Thanks for asking Richelle, I hope things are looking up! Tues was enough to scare the everliving crud out of me. So, I was glad to be able to do things on my own today. Let's just hope Tues. was a total fluke! Please, please, please! Miss u!

Hi Perfectlypurple. Glad u liked them, as well. Yes, there are a few colors that I have in other formulas, but I like playing with different textures & seeing what I get & which ones I like best. Like I said, I wasn't expecting much because of the negativity of Big Bounce, but when I tried them on I fell in love with the spongy texture & ease of layering if u want more pronounced colors. I can't wait to play! Good luck on ur Genetics Midterm!
