The MUFE don't stay on me very well, but I hear that the MAC neon do. Also,, I plan to use them as a base to mix colors from too- which makes them intriguing for me.
A few of them look like great blush colors if used with 187 lightly.

You could always mix these with something else to make them shimmery. You can't take the shimmer out of something, though.
I'm a fan of these as they are. Also, with that much colour, do you really need the shimmer to bring more attention to them!?

I was thinking the same!! I use my Bright Coral & Bright Fuchsia as blushes, I am sure Red Electric & Magenta Madness (and prob even Neo-Orange) could be used the same way! The other 3 I am planning on using as eye colours

pigments are measured by weight, not volume. and since matte pigments are heavier, these are gonna be less full than frosty pigments.

actually i think they are lighter than frost pigments. that's why matte piggies are 2.5g instead of 7.5g each

i don't have alot of matte pigments, just a few, but black black and smoke signals is 7.5g. i'm sure there are other mattes that are 7.5g as well. and all my metal ones are 7.5g except for silver.

i just looked at all swatches again. these are definitely 2.5g each. (i can see 0.08 oz on some of the jars) all my 2.5g mattes are only about 50-60% full when they are new, so these are probably half full too

(just reading though and I thought I would edit and say it again since I saw it was confusing to some) these are seriously as bright or brighter in real life then the photos, I'll post swatches soon tonight |

There was a error with these being released early, they werent suppose to be out till August. I talked directly to Mac Pro and got the information. I had called a week ago and the gal I always talk to hadn't heard about them. I talked to her tuesday and she said after we got off the phone last week she researched the collection & brought the info to management. To make a long story short
yes, these will be released at Mac Pro, they aren't going to advertise until they know the exact date. It should be in the next 4 weeks

Eep, that's good news! More that we're on the up and up with things going on. I'll get samples of these at a later date. =)
If possible, could someone swatch Full Force Violet with Climate Blue? I'm really trying to talk myself out of Climate Blue, just cuz I don't have the cash.
