I love when MAC does new single eyeshadows, I will definitely pick up 1 or 2

I want Sur Blush. I've always regretted not getting it when it came out with the Mickey Contractor collection so I'm glad it's back.

Excited about the blushes and maybe a few eyeshadows too!

YAYYYYYYYYYYY......finally new eyeshadows and blushes!!!!!!!!!!

Super excited for those

 

[OctoberViolet]

Thank you!

Im excited for the velvet teddy shadows and blush. I also like the ruby woo red shadows but realistically i probably wont wear it. (Ruby woo lipstick is my hg red lippie though)

 

[verorl]

Blushes for me!!! I think I will get several.

Anyone know the launch date for the U.S.? After seeing Dominic's swatches I now want 4-5 eyeshadows!

Coming Soon on the U.S. MAC website!

The collection is available on the UK website, but minus the matte shadow in the Candy Yum Yum section Candy Yum-Yum

Had no intention really, but since I ran into items from this collection just thrown on a table behind a 'cold' Mac stand, swatched some and got the Teddy e/s, Hollywood Heroine e/s and Undercover Heroine Blush.

I bought too much as usual. I had to take a lot out of my cart though. My box just arrived and I'm about to open it. Is this the spring collection? I was excited about it because it felt like an old school Mac collection with blushes and single eyeshadows. I'll probably get the other things I wanted later. Will this collection be in stores?

I ordered the see sheer and Velvet Teddy items. Not the glosses though because I really never wear them.

The heroine and diva collections all say coming soon for the Canadian website.

i found the candy yum yum and the ruby woo collections also pretty, but decided I probably won’t wear those enough in shadow format.

I think the Spring collection is the one with that Fleur Real compact? Monochrome is in stand alone MAC stores, doesn't seem like counters are getting it





About to order Holly Folly now, I have enough empties to B2MAC for 3 more, the 2 Diva and the frosty Heroine e/s

The ulta website has the Ruby Woo, Velvet Teddy, and See Sheer Collections up right now.

I picked up the velvet teddy and see sheer glosses, lipsticks (because they are classics I’ve been meaning to grab) the eyeshadows and blushes.

I still want to pick up the Diva gloss and blush, and heroine Blush and shadows.

I bought all the blushes except Apple Red. I thought I had Apple Red but didn't get around to checking before ordering. I finally just checked. All I could find was Bite of an Apple. I have heard of Apple Red before. I'm thinking I didn't buy it before thinking I already had a red blush and didn't need it. Can I remember that and not order it now?. Hmm. By the way, going through my Mac blush collection, I saw a lot of old faves. So many neglected beautiful colors. Must put them back into rotation. I didn't realize how many bright pinks I had from Mac especially since I don't wear bright pink that much.

Anyway, I bought a few shadows too. I bought one gloss. No lipsticks since I think they were all permanent. I didn't have much in the way of a monochromatic look except for the Velvet Teddy. Today, I did the Soft Teddy matte eyeshadow on the lid and Sur blush. Sur blush showed up on me. I wasn't sure it would but it did. It was pretty. I didn't see the other Teddy eyeshadow and I thought it was left out of my order. It turns out it wasn't. It was just a bit darker than I realized so I thought the color I was went with another collection. Anyway. Soft Teddy was nice and looked good on the lid but I think it would make for a nice transition color. I think I will try it with a cool tone look. Some of my cool tone looks don't work well with the usual transition color that I use so I think this one might. I think I'm going to order the gloss and try the look again along with the frost eyeshadow. I think I might have Velvelt Teddy lipstick so I'll go dig that out too. I liked today's look but I need to find the right Mac highlighter. I thought I was doing all Mac Monochrome so I needed a Mac highlighter. I was rushing this morning so I just went with what was handy. Will look through my Mac highlighters and pic the best one later.

Oh and I need to update my Studio Fix shade signature. I've been wearing 44.5 lately. I bought another lighter color I think and maybe I should wear that one now. I think it was one of the newer .5 shades. I need to check.

I got rid of my apple red blush b/c it didn't blend out easily. HTH you to move on from it.

Just Soft Teddy for me. I can't resist MAC mattes.
