MAC for Marilyn

[Milegolas]

Why are there no swatches of the blushes and BP? Those were the ones I wanted to see the most!

Could not agree more! I will skip the e/s and I think I will only buy scarlet ibis, but I am dying to see "the perfect cheek" and the bp *__*

 

[princess sarah]

oohh what a cool thing to get up to this morning... more swatches!!

I agree that the e/s are an easy skip, dupeable

Im a sucker for matte lipsticks as it is and I already knew I would be grabbing some from this collection. Think I am going to stick to Love Godess and Charmed Im Sure, Phliff Dazzleglass, Beet and Cherry Lipliners and maybe perfect cheek blush.

Actually really i love all matte products, from lips to eyes to cheeks!

Skipping the eye shadows for sure.

So far I want Deeply Adored l/s, Love Goddess l/s and The Perfect Cheek. I kind of like Legendary but will probs skip it.

Much smaller haul than I'd imagined tbh as originally wanted all the eye shadows, both blushes and at least 2-3 lipsticks. Savings make me happy.

 

[kimibos]

my list is

• noshadows.nopolishes.nopermanentstuff . i have to tell myself this a 1000 times before entering the store, and while im in the store.
• deeply adored 2
• charmed im sure 2
• love goddess 2
• pure zen 1 just for the packaging cause its perm.
• scarlet ibis 1 just for the packaging cause i already have it and lady danger.
• legendary blush prob 2
• perfect cheek blush prob 1
• forever marilyn bp prob 2

i really want my budget to be $200-250 including bU's. i still cant decided if i want to back the blushes up and the beauty powder. or just not get scarlet ibis.

how much is the beauty powder goiing to be? i have the blushes at $21 that's what the summer ones with special packaging cost at maccosmetics.com right now.

I would say the beauty powder could be close to $30.

im definitely gonna swatch it and prob put some on my cheeks to see if its BU worthy for me.

I love that we have swatches, thank you Naynadine! I love the packaging, however, I am not seeing any lipsticks that are must have for me. I think I will focus on the eyeshadows & BP. The nail polish colors are nice, I just am not a fan of the MAC polish, I wish I was though...their colors are right on trend.

 

[Eleentje]

I'm feeling a bit 'meh' about the collection now.
I will probably get 2 lipsticks (Deeply Adored and Love Goddess) and the blue-grey e.s. (Showgirl?), and that's it!

Are the prices for all the products somewhere and I missed it? Maybe it's on a page I didn't check? I have my list together and I'd like to estimate the damage

nope.we are estimating prices. lippies are now $15 so this ones may be $16.60 and blushes $21. the powder may costs $30 but nobody knows right now.

 

[crystalis007]

Ok thank you. I'm really happy with an estimate. This is gonna be an expensive one whew!

I saw it somewhere in this post that one of the magazines had deeply adorned for $17.

i posted that................. yep you are right lipsticks $17 and polishes $18.

 

[hwdsprincess]

Oh man that kinda sucks, I hate when they hike up the prices just for packaging. Geez why do I have to want everything.

This image, which I'm assuming was posted SOMEWHERE deep in the thread, says that they'll be $16.50. Also based on that swatch, I think I could skip Love Goddess. It looks pretty similar to Moxie.

Can we use our pro discount on this collection?

 

[lilinah]

I don't wear red or orange lipstick or nail polish, or black or grey eye makeup, so most of this collection is not for me. But there are a few things i want to test...

Lipstick: Pure Zen - Warm nude (Cremesheen) - - - i'm still searching for a nude i like on me - could this be the one?

Eyeshadow: Preferred Blonde - Pale champagne beige (Veluxe Pearl)
Eyeshadow: How to Marry - Soft White (Veluxe Pearl)
- - - i suspect these are close to shadows i already have, but they're worth a look

Beauty Powder: Forever Marilyn - Sheer pale peach highlighter - - - i have and like Light Sunshine, so i probably don't need this one
Powder Blush: The Perfect Cheek - Neutral pink beige (Matte) - - - i have and like Pink Cult, so i probably don't need this one

I highly doubt it. Special Packaging + Licensed Images (think Disney Collaboration) and that = NO discount I fear! If we do... I will be VERY pleasantly surprised!
