MAC - Lustre Twins Discussion

[astronaut]

Yay, a collection I can skip.

 

[christineeee_]

i am sooo passing on this collection

 

[anuy]

i love the concept!!! i just wish MAC would execute it right! sometimes prolong wears can feel so dry but the colors are gorgeous and the staying power is awesome!

please bring something like femme forever!!

I'll have to wait and see

this is exactly how they are.

same formula, just new colors with colored glosses.

 

[nursie]

[Zantedge]

I'm with everyone else on this... skipping it! Though I will take a look at the nail polishes.

 

[newagetomatoz]

A definate skip for me. Too complicated for me.

The repromoted Laquer will be $$$$$ Yes from Heatherette For MAC. One of the new ones will be a deep Red, and I didn't look at the other shade. =(

For those that like the ProLong Wears these will be give a nice variety to the neglected line. However, for those that dislike the product already, it will just be a waste of time. I'm not a big fan, but my mother LOVES them!

We are having so many repromotes of unpopular colors. That Nail Lacquer, Jardin Aires, Mauvement. It's so silly. They're all pretty but doesn't MAC get it that it's not gonna sell that well??

 

[soco210]

I'll be skipping this one, I don't like those lacquers... nothing will blow me away for once *phew* that's ok - because starflash shadows are going to break me lol

 

[erine1881]

$$$$ yes is being repromoted, and the two new shades are:

perplexing-deep blue purple (PERM)
firehouse-bright chrome red (PERM)

HOT HOT HOT! And thank goodness for perm

I'm sure I'll pick Firehouse up on the 31st though; red nails are my thing.

Erine, do you have any product names or descriptions for the Longwears coming out with this collection? Just in case any of wanna budget for trying one out?

Thanks!

This is one I'm personally skipping but will be taking my mom to check out. She's got this thing for longwear lippies.... so this is right up her ally, especially since she's been recently looking for some.

however, my update book says that lustre twins is north america only. it won't be international.
