MAC - MAC for Ungaro Discussion

[abbyquack]

I can't wait for swatches of these, but from the stock photo now the e/s all look extremely appealing! I love those colors! And I agree with TDoll, there isn't just one possibility for Fall. The colors complement each other really well.

I think that's the problem. The watercolors of Monet always symbolize spring to me, especially his Garden at Giverny. I wish they had done a full collection with more of these colors in spring of next year. It would have been perfect. Bright pastels just don't seem autumnal to me at all.

Erine, does the beauty powder have shimmer at all? Is it anything like Pearl Blossom from Barbie, colorwise? Is there enough color in it to use as a blush for us fair girls, or is it meant more as a highlighter?

Hi Susanne!

 

[Winthrop44]

I wonder if color-wise Mineral will be anything like Magnetic Fields from Neo Sci-Fi?

 

[sherox]

Me too! I'm going to be so broke the next couple of months with all these gorgeous collections coming out lol

 

[lethaldesign]

I want everything except for the liner, brow set & Freckletone.BTW... has anyone confirmed if Lilac Touch e/s is the SAME as the previously released Memorobilia? I know the WN for Lilac Touch was Memorobilia (or the other way around)... I'm just hoping its not the same because that e/s is so hard to work with even though I love the colors.

Yep...me too! Except for Freckletone ls.

 

[rbella]

^^^I might even buy Freckletone just for the hell of it. I love this line so much it hurts!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[panther27]

I am wayyy more into bright colors and pastels then I am dark colors,so this collection is perfe

ct for me

 

[darkishstar]

I've been wanting Freckletone. Maybe I should get it with special packaging...

But yeah! I want that C-thru lipcolor and that coral eyeshadow!

 

[blindpassion]

Im excited for that Coral eyeshadow as well! thats definitely one color of eyeshadow I dont own yet!

 

[panther27]

^^^The only coral toned shadow I have is Electric Coral pigment so I may just need to pick this up.

 

[Krasevayadancer]

I love corals! They are so pretty on my pale skin against my green eyes. The only coral I own is in the chanel summer quad

 

[panther27]

^^^I agree Adina,corals are so pretty,plus it's just another excuse to pick this one up!

 

[Susanne]

Yep, the coral e/s for me, too

I will skip the purple one because I bought Lotusland and Top Hat, the cool eyes palette from Colours Forms and I will get Shadowy Lady Quad.

But I really like Paradisco and hope to combine it with the coral shade.

Yeah you're right about the watercolor/springy/monet colors. I think the darker brown and purple e/s are nice fall colors though.
I don't really see the "designer" collaborations as a seasonal thing though. They kind of do their own thing, rather than MAC actually releasing collections targeted toward the seasons. Next to Manish Arora (released in the DEAD of fall!) which is total opposite of what you would consider "fall" colors, this is fall-enough for me!

After Cult of Cherry, we should all be pretty stocked on our fall colors! lol
