I'm lost on this Starflash stuff.. What are some of the starflash shadows?

None of the eye shadows in this collection are starflash shadows. Hopefully we will see the starflash finish in another collection this year. I hope that answered your question.

I think I'm in the minority here, but I actually love matte shadows! As with almost every other finish there are some colors that are a bigger pain than others, but for me...no big deal breaker. I'm excited to add some brights to my collection, it's pretty lacking in that department now.

I really can't wait to hear more about the new lipglass formula too. I'm really hoping they're on the opaque side and super glossy!

There were two collections with Starflash e/s so far, in 2008 and 2009:

Starflash - July | Specktra.Net

Love That Look - July | Specktra.Net

starflash sahdows have one of the best textures imo. highlighy pigmented and very smoooth to apply and blend like a dream!

but that said i am very excited for this collection even though there are no starflash shadows because i love brights!

I'm with you. I love Mattes. I love the look that it gives. I don't always need shimmer or glitter in my looks, especially since that's what I go for in my lip colors. I love Violet Trance and other Mac mattes and, as a whole, I have no problems with them.

I was a fool not to start buying Mac make up earlier. I was already receiving the newsletters at the time and even could have had a chance with Friends and Family Sumo sale last year!

I only have 2 Starflash eyeshadows and I love them!

i am very excited about getting my hands on going bananas as well as a few more matte shadows...mac is lacking in that area so it is good to see some new colors.

[Susanne]

I am still excited!

I really look forward to the e/s.

 

[LMD84]

i'm looking forward to all of it! super bright gloss and shadows is like heaven for me!

 

[spunky]

August, I think. The exact date differs from country to country. In Sweden we get all of the months releases on the 15th for example.

 

[Susanne]

July for the US and August internationally.

 

[LMD84]

for the uk we are usually the first thurday of the month for release in stores and a day or two before hand on the website.

I'm really looking forward to the mattes, I hope they apply well! I have some Aromaleigh mineral matte eyeshadows that are super bright and they are definitely some of my favorites! I think I'm definitely grabbing up Going Bananas and Lime as well as maybe one of the blues and purples. I'll see when swatches come

Me too! I've just discovered mattes in the past few months and I am LOVING them.

 

[peachsuns]

I don't mind mattes at all.

BTW, does anyone know the finish of Crazy Cool and Shock-a-holic? TIA!

I really really wanna know too... they are already my pre-favorites... just because they are purple

 

[*JJ*]

i love mattes, i'm just not really a bright eyeshadow person. but i can hardly ever pass up a purple eyeshadow, so i might not skip this collection after all..
