.. but that's what I used to think about regular shadows and blushes too, so... I guess we'll get a confirmation after Erine's update?


i'll definately let ya know when i found out. if anything, the color may determine where else it could be used, just like with pigments.

Burned dirty red though?
It sounds kinda like an orange-red though.

I want a true red. Hopefully this can be a good alternative to consider if Royal Flush from Colour Forms and Heritage Rouge from Overrich don't work out.


I'm really hoping it is more of just a deep red. I already have Coppering and NYX's Rust, both of which aren't my ideal red, and my hopes are high for Royal Flush. But should Royal Flush not work out, I have hopes for Merrily.

By the way darkishstar, MUFE has a new red eyeshadow out, Matte Cold Red 158, in addition to the older Scarlet 99. Have you tried UD's Gash for red eyeshadow? I haven't but I read on MUA that over Flammable (which I will get some day, grrr) it keeps its redness and doesn't turn orange.

Nope, I've never tried MUFE's shadows. I've not tried UD's Gash either, though I do use some other UD shadows. Maybe next time when I go to Sephora I'll check it out.

I really need to get Flammable too.. I probably will once I see the triangle of death next to it, because yeah, they're going to phase out the paints and everything...

Ughh, don't remind me about the paints. I keep compulsively checking the MAC site to see if Flammable has gotten the triangle yet. I pray to the MAC gods that it is among the last ones to get it. Or at least until Cool Heat when I place my massive MAC order online.

Me too! I check everyday.. and I see Canton Candy has the triangle next to it.. and I'm debating if I want it since I use so many purple shadows... Ugh! I should just order it anyway with the free shipping...

But yeah, I really want Flammable Paint.. I hope it holds out till Cool Heat.
Why can't they make Paint Pots in the colors of the paints and shadesticks that they are DC'ing? At least make a purple paint pot, a golden pink one, a sea me colored one, and a chartreuse colored one!

Re: MAC Cosmetics Sonic Chic Discussion

Does anyone know the exact release date because I went to the MAC store and they didnt know what I was talking about. They even showed me their booklet that features all the collections coming out this summer and these mineral blushes were not featured any where in the booklet??????

i think it's because it is considered a "fall" collection, and the MAs probabaly haven't been to the update yet

MAC breaks their year into 4 segments:

Jan thru April
May thru July
July thru October
October thru January

The MAs generally go to update in the month prior to a new segment. Sometimes they go in the first part of the first month of a new segment.

Right now, you guys know more about upcoming collections than a lot of MAs.

Why shouldn't they have the same size like the regular or Beauty Powder Blushes? What should the price be?

someone already said the price is the same as the mineralized eyeshadows (it's $20 in canada, $16.50 in US, i think). the assumption is that mac would have charged more if they are bigger than MES (for example, MSF are bigger than MSF and cost more). plus, mac mineral products are USUALLY baked (like MSF, MES) so we are assuming these probably are too. so they are not really comaparible to regular mac blushes & bpb in terms of size/price. again, no one has seen these blushes yet, so nobody really knows what they look like

I get that.. just sort of wondering how do they know what the price is, and if so wouldn't they be able to tell us the size as well? more so then just going off the price.. that just why I'm asking is all, a bit confused and wanting to know

These better not be the same size as the MES

that'll be too tiny to swirl my brushes in >_<

Hmm..does anybody have a 181SE to put next to a MES? In the pictures, the brush looks about the same height as an open container..
