I wouldn't mind a full repromoted collection. I wanna save some $$$ for other stuff however I would grab a b/u of briar rose just for the packaging! (If the packaging is NEW!)
As someone trying to cut way back on makeup purchases, I don't mind it. As a Disney collector I do, especially since the Sephora Disney line has concluded.

I'm interested to see what the packaging will look like...hope they do something cool. I remember being so mad that they didn't include Ursula in the Venomous Villains collection LOL. I loved the Maleficent lipglass from that collection though, used it all up and would love that color again :/ Can't even remember what the name was!!
Seriously Ursula was completely shafted by MAC. She was tailor made for a cosmetics collection!

I could be misremembering, but I believe that Disney told MAC which characters they were allowed to use. Since this was around the time of The Princess and the Frog, they wanted to push that villain character, which left out using a classic villain like Ursula. I did notice that when ELF partnered with Disney in 2013, they used Maleficent, Ursula, the Evil Queen, and Cruella.

Mean & Green and Formidable! are permanent, have been for awhile now. :) There were (are?) also basically exact dupes of both made by Orly. Bad Fairy would be the only one no one can currently buy. It would be my luck if that was the one product they don't repromote!

I spent I don't know how much time trying to find one, never could. Then bought about 4 different polishes by different brands that looked similar in the bottle, but ultimately weren't similar at all.

I really wish they would partner with Sephora again. I missed out on the Cinderella items, and I still lust after that mirror! I read that Disney wanted to push their own makeup line, but none of that appeals to me. I guess I'll stick to collecting the adorable Pop Funko dolls.

The mirrors were gorgeous! I finally got a new bookcase to display things like that on. I left them all in the package. I had sense enough to get a BU Ariel compact so I can actually use that.

I don't think Disney's makeup line had anything to do with the Sephora partnership ending, honestly. That line is only carried in the parks and on the Disney Store website (not in actual Disney Stores). It is a very niche market. I played around with what was out last summer when I was in Walt Disney World, and bought a few things. The nail polish is actually quite nice! Lipgloss isn't bad, certainly better than the Designer line glosses from the Disney Store. The eyeshadow palettes are wretched, however. Terrible quality, and cheap packaging. Luckily I could tell that easily (they had testers out for the glosses and shadows at many locations). and didn't waste my money on one! Maybe they have improved over the last few additions to the line, but I am not counting on that.

Shockingly enough, their makeup is actually made in the USA. I was expecting China, like just about everything else they sell.

When those came out I thought ha that much for a mirror? I didn't quite realize at the time just how pretty they were or how fast they would be gone!

I truly regret not getting the Cinderella & Ariel storylook palettes so hard. I only got the Ariel mirror, the cruddy Cinderella quad and the Aladdin storylook. I was totally off my game.

Aww, I'm sorry! I prefer those two to the Jasmine palette, though all three are nice. I literally hounded my Sephora store ad nauseum, calling every couple days towards the end to see if they had everything in. Every single time I got most of what I ended up with before the display was even up. I know how it goes with Disney LE stuff, whether it's makeup or something else, so I was taking no chances!

The only things I skipped out of all three collections were the Jasmine liner set because I knew I wouldn't use it, and all but one of the perfumes and rollerballs. I did get the Ariel one because I think that may be the first scent I can actually wear (allergies and sinus problems plague me)! If not, I'll treat it as a collectible.

That's how I treat most of my BUs from and some of the single products I own from the Venomous Villains line. Will be the same for this Maleficent line if it is all repromotes or colors I don't use.

Just give me Briar Rose BP and I'll be happy. I missed out on Venomous Villains back in the day but from what I later saw of the collection, that was the only item I would've really wanted.

I only have a few pieces from VV left because I used up/swapped some stuff away. I do still have Bite of an Apple blush, Heartless lipstick, and an eyeshadow. I have the Jasmine and Ariel palettes from Sephora, along with the Ariel mirror. I don't use the palettes that much, so the one item I really wish I could find is the Cinderella mirror. I would never pay ebay prices for it though! I'm only slowly building my Disney collection, and I'm better off getting a few more ceramic pieces

I loved the Sephora/Disney collab! I really wish they would have done more than just the 3. Where was Snow White, Aurora, Bell?! It's so incomplete! I missed out on all the mirrors, many times I've had them in my hands and decided against it. I only picked up the 3 story look palettes, and the Cinderella lipsticks. The Ariel palette was such a pain to get though the sales people at sephora make me so mad!

I only ordered stuff from the Ariel collection (the perfume, palette and quad) and have been kicking myself ever since for not getting the other palettes lol. I got lucky and before Christmas my Sephora had a bunch of stuff from all 3 collections out (which I thought was weird considering how fast everything sold out to begin with), so I snagged the Cinderella lipstick set which was definitely worth it.

Why do the salespeople at Sephora make you so mad?
Not all of them do! The ones I interacted with during the Ariel launch did! I called daily looking for the palette and was told it wasn't out just to call the next day and be told they sold out straight from the back, just to go in myself after to see the palettes on the shelves. That and some of them are plan right rude on a normal basis.

I have a good vibes that the part of maleficent will be the ones that's going to be repromoted. I saw it in a chinese magazine a few weeks ago and it was a new magazine. I even had to flip the cover to check if it was a current mag or not! Lol. If they're doing a repromote, it's a yay! Then. :) saved some $ there. :)
