I don't have any of the shades, and the fact that there are new ones? I'll take all three. I don't like Blue Brown, but my mom loves it, so I may give her that one. I don't want to think about my total for this collection, to be honest. EDIT: Okay, okay. I had to add it up. Chapter 1: $216.50 Chapter 2: We don't have prices yet, but based on past things, I'll be spending at least $156.50, not including the nail set, since I added two lip sets in the last three minutes.

Go girl! You already have totals! Good for you.

I haven't even gone through the color story yet. Still overwhelmed.

Corinne does rock!!!

The totals are just approximations... I think I can cut it somewhere. Except for the sets. MUST HAVE.

And the two palettes I like... and the lipsticks. and that blush. and the pigments. and the pearlglides. yeah I can't cut anything.

My husband always rolls his eyes at me when I get excited over new make-up goodies. Last year after we got married, he always complained that I spent too much money on make-up, so I bought him a PS3 and he was a happy camper after that point!

I am SO stoked about Softwash Grey and Silver Fog pigments. I have been lemming a new silver pigment, so the cool set is right up my alley!

silver fog is a lovely silver! and super pretty when applied wet

softwash grey is also lovely but very chunky

woohoo, this collection sounds amazing! Thank you Corinne and Erin for the info and everything

I already have Later but I will snag Moonlight Night and Family Crest pigments. They both sound gorgeous!

I loooooved the pearl glides. Black Swan sounds amazing! I will also get Lord it Up.

For the first time ever in my 4 years of collecting MAC, I'm actually interested in palettes and bags, lol! I was 6 Reekers and Rockers and 6 Beauties Play it Cool palettes and the Warm Thrillseaker pigment bag.

Can't wait!

I'm kind of considering a brush set, too.

But, after the stories of them breaking, I'm weary. But it might be nice to have a good travel set, right?

Lordy, I can't even bring this up to my husband right now. Not after all the VV fuss. That about drove him crazy.

I really want mac to do the little pigments like how they did the spring colour forecast stack jars pigments, seems more convenient than those teeny vials!

I had one break on me but I just used industrial glue to put it back and I didn't have anymore problems, the problem for me is the scratchyness

Hi guys! So excited about this collection!!

Today I stopped by at my local MAC store and I got to see the product book for TT! Almost everything I saw was stuff already posted, but I did get to see the Kids Helping Kids bear and did you know there are 2?! They're both the same bear, but one is a teddy bear ($15) and the other is a keychain ($12)! They say "Kids Helping Kids" across the belly and they both come in the same plaid print that is more on the blue side. Also saw the Viva Glam set and its Viva Glam V lipstick and Viva Glam V lipglass with an all red plaid lip bag (like the other lip bags). Hope that helped a little! Now I'm off to go budget for this collection! Oh, and thank you Corinne and Erin for all the info! You ladies rock!

yes that is such a good idea! the stackable jars would be much better!

It was definitely not lime, more bottle green...

I'm gonna have a look for the video - it was quite a boring vid overall hence why I didn't post lol.

Black pearlglides sound pretty too. Mini NP will be lovely. And looks like there are special sets for Team Purple!
