Like you, I'm gonna buy it because I need to own whatever has that name.

Aww

And what would I do w/o you, my dark lip enabler?

And I only have one nude, so regardless of name, this is coming home with me anyway. The name is just a gigantic bonus.

The more I here and the more I see the more impatient I get. Every time I see a new pic or hear a name from this collection I am like give me more I need more lol and my wallet is going no no no no. I cant wait to get the full color story these little tid bits are great and thanks to all the people who have shared what they know and the pics that they've got but man the trickle of info is like dangling meat in a pool of sharks its such a tease

What can I say except "OH SO TRUE!" My Mom keeps telling me to log off this site and don't look back (Temptalia too) but I CANNOT DO IT! Once bitten....well, you know the rest.

Thanks soo much! Just found it also and I am for sure getting it! Just the name is worth the buy. Do you guys think it looks like Velvet Teddy? I just got that one and really like it...

Exactly

I mean the first thing I do after I get my kids settled is log on and look on here and Temptalia.

bbgillian thanks for the swatches!!!! Gone Romancin is gorgeous as well as Cut A Caper lipstick! I'm gunning for those and My Highland Honey. I have Full Fuchsia blush and I'm still going to get that pink blush.

Hope to hear more info this week. Side note about pinks and MAC holiday: I really loved the bright pink from last holiday. Utter Fun. Just stunning! Another old fav was joy berry lipglass from holiday years ago. I hope I see something similar this year.

Yes! Utter Fun is one of my top 10 Mac lipsticks. It's amazing.

I'm all over My Highland Honey and Cut a Caper. I'm going to keep calling it Cut a Paper, though

. Guess I'm going to have to keep up with this thread now b/c I am intrigued.

For those that asked, I have yet to get the blackened rainbow thing to really work well. I have mixed some pigments and eyeshadows with matte black and gotten something close but it just isn't right yet. That's why I am excited for these, because I think they will help my experimentation with the idea.

That bright pink blush both terrifies & intrigues me. I wonder how close to Magenta Madness it is.

My mom says the same, but alas, Specktra is just as addicting as MAC.

So far I love everything I've seen. The pigments, the blushes, and the lippies are must haves for me. I wish this was VV.

 

[trulynicole]

thank you thank you thank you

i love the highland honey blush, lipstick and gloss

 

[laylalovesmac]

bbgillian, have you seen anything else from the collection? Anything memorable? All of your info is awesome!

 

[jazm1n3s]

bbgillian, do you have a swatch of the lipstick? It looks so gorgeous, but I'm curious on how it applies and how it looks in the lips.
