I was playing with the icon collection today...

The brushes are nice. I will probably get them, as I am a big fan of the 168 and 222, so backups are good.

As far as the quads, I guess I will wait and see. I love Fake and am glad to see that in one of them. I was surprised that Aria is in one of them. That didn't sell well.

LS and LGs I am going to try and convince my MA to take my B2Ms for despite the special packaging.

I would like the Beauty Powders. Other than that...I guess I shall wait and see

i havent officaily played with the colors cuase we havent made the testers, but ive glanced at them real close and i actually love the quads, they are versatile to me. The lipsticks are amazing (roleplay and screenqueen come to mind). yogamode is a must have, smile blush...eh i think thier is too much we have similar to it. The 223 is the crease brush i have dreamed about!, the lipglasses are to die for! Oh and the sultress lashes are really nice! they are kinda like the number 10 lashes from the pro store except they have black and brown hairs.

The quads don't look too exciting, and why does MAC always put a dark brown and dark plum in most of their LE quads. I find these colours boring but i guess they figure you will use it as an eyeliner shade??

Well I guess I am saving my money for Mac loves Barbie. I am sure once I see the ICON collection I will get something. At least I won't go overboard like usual.

i didnt mean to turn you all off to it before you even saw it in store, but i personally didn't LOVE it as much as i thought i would since i have dupes of almost all of them

you should all still go and check it out, im sure it the quads would look great on alot of you, especially if you dont have alot of the similar shadows

anyway like i said the lip stuff is all real pretty

I love your honesty SARAHluvsMac. You bring down the hype a notch and tell it like it is. I agree, I'm going to go see the collection before making up my mind. I don't have the huge collection some may have, so I'll keep an open mind about what I consider "new" colors.

You could actually use them to darken the outer V a little, I guess. The light yellow reminds me of Spring Up in the picture, the lighter brown in the second pic reminds me of Cork. I look foward to seeing them in person.

I just hope some of the face products are not shimmery. My gawd I am over glitter.

Aw you're too sweet. I'm totally going to check out the stuff in person tomorrow though, I actually like the second quad but I'm not sure how it'll show up on me so I have learned to start trying on the testers before I go home with stuff. I know I'm for sure going to get the #223 brush, especially after seeing it next to the #222. It seems like everytime I try to buy the #222 it's never in stock so maybe it's a sign that I've been waiting for this one hehe.

Thanks for all your input, especially your pics!

MAC Pro in NYC didn't receive the entire collection today, so they are not displaying it.

I was told that if I know what I want, I can purchase it, if they have it.


I saw a few of the items, the packaging for this collection is beautiful, Unfortunately they didn’t get the items I wanted (except for the Raquel l/g).

Have you seen it or are you just going by the descriptions? I'm anxious to see what the plum l/s looks like!

I'm disappointed in the purple in the quad. I was hoping for a deeper colour. I'll still be checking out the quad though. It might still be a nice combo of colours.
