MAC Early Buzz - news on products for 2012

[Mac-Guy]

This does sound promising, lets hope it doesn't suffer the "curse."

What's the curse?

 

[Genn]

I hope the Carine Roitfeld collection is beautiful. It sounds like it will be.

 

[Genn]

I feel like I should be ordering new makeup already. Its been 3 weeks since I ordered From Extra Dimension and Reel sexy. With all the new collections coiming my brain feels like one should be out now.

Tx Naynadine! I'm not sure who Carine Roitfeld is, I will look her up, but I LOVE me some smokey eye. I can't wait to find out more about this collection. I am trying to stay away from all the Summer collections & just save for the Fall/Winter ones. I have a feeling those will break the bank literally.

A new collection, a collaboration with Carine Roitfeld:

MAC Cosmetics, Carine Roitfeld Team Up - Fashion Scoops - Fashion - WWD.com



Sounds exciting, I'm looking forward to the special packaging.

Do you think the stencil will be something that we use with eyeshadow to make the star shape? That would be different

 

[Shellcat]

Hahaha!!!

Can't wait to see everyones pics with the different patterns.

I can't wait to rummage through my MAC counters drawers to pick mine out!!!

Let's go swirl hunting.

[Prettypackages]

Eh, boring.

I am surprised they are doing one with this trend, which depending on you talk to, ppl say is over.

 

[Hellolover]

anyone know the dates for online exclusives release?

 

[romi79_2008]

I so miss the old days when we had so much more data about the coming collections, I want to know more details to get excited. With just some names and generic descriptions i`m not getting in the mood to buy mac, i`m slipping to the other side, buying other brands.

Agreed! Mac are definitely not doing themselves any favors!

 

[OctoberViolet]

I agree with both of you. Romi & Pemily. I miss the days of getting so much info my head would explode with excitement. I am really getting impatient to find out more about the A/W collections. Marilyn and whatever else may be coming. I need to know. I'd rather find out sooner rather than later.

I feel we have quite a lot of info for now - except that product pics are still missing. But at least we know what to expect in the next few months.

Especially the Marilyn collection!

I agree - - I think having the color story info 2-3 months out is SUPER helpful - I find the color descriptions much more helpful and accurate than the crappy stock photos MAC sends out with their "official" PR announcements anyway.
Also, I don't think there are a lot of other companies out there relasing their fall campaigns yet, so I think MAC is right in line with what the industy is doing. I dunno. I feel like we have a gift horse here at Specktra and we shouldn't be looking it in the mouth. We could certainly have *less* information about upcoming releases, so I guess I feel greatful for the awesome insider info we get.
