THESE. ARE. SO. HOT.
Good thing I am skipping Neo-Sci Fi completely! And that I only got one thing from NN then!

And Yeah, I really really won't get Gulf Stream, Cool Heat, Blue Flame, or Climate Blue from Cool Heat now, so only 2 eyeshadows from that collection. Thank goodness! I won't get Climate Blue because this indigo one sounds way better and hotter! So only... Solar White and Warm Chill! 3 lipsticks, one pigment from colour forms... and.. one mineralized blush...

And a LOT of these eyeshadows!

Maybe it's a new finish called Starflash? lol.
Yeah, I'm guessing they will be frosts and veluxe pearls. Or maybe a new metallic finish!

I'm going to skip the 2 highlight colors, I only really need Naked Lunch.

And Solar White when I get it.
I don't like coppers, they don't look good on me, so the bronzes and coppers and reddish brown, no.

What I want:
-Sunset B.
-Lotusland (Lavender with gold? So gorgeous! And I love the lotus flower, it's in my chinese name, so I HAVE to have this lol.)
-Mink and Sable (I've been wanting an olive, if it's too much like Golden Olive, I'll skip it.)
-Smoke and Diamonds (sounds so pretty! great name too)
-Top Hat (Indigo! I don't want velvet Climate Blue then.

)

And I'll skip the teals and blues, but I'm considering them! But most likely not.

Maybe it'll be a whole collection like the Matte2 or the Idol Eyes collection (w/the VP e/s) where they were perm., *crossing fingers* that they are perm. anything to save some money.


Yes...maybe these are like Frost2!

I'd kill for a metallic finish, though...that would be the ultimate!

I'm also wondering if the new finish is more to do with the new milling process someone was mentioning earlier. I would love eye shadows with the same finely milled texture as the beauty powder blushes.

I'm with you Hilly. I love new eye shadows, and let's be honest, I will get some, but this is nothing to pee your pants over. Now those Mineralized Blushes on the other hand...

Yeah, for sure. It's just instead of getting colors in the perm collection that these may be similar to, I'll just go ahead and get the LE ones.

You know? This collection will really help me build on my colors that I want. Like a pink, lilac, olive, taupe... and if they really aren't that special and there is a perm color better, then I will get that instead.

So for me, it still works out.

First off I am praying that these are perm shadows! I love all MAC products but I am first a MAC eye shadow lover and I think I will have to get all of these if they are LE. I am feeling so overwhelmed by all of the collections coming out!

Re: MAC Starflash collection discussion

*groan* Here is my preliminary list for this collection (I am cutting back on Cool Heat now I think):

Dreammaker, Frosty yellow gold
Grand Entrance:Frosty neutral pink beige
Sunset B. Frosty mid pink
Lotusland: Pinky lavender with gold pearl
Talent pool: Blue green with gold pearl
Top Hat: Dirty Indigo
Star by Night: Mid tone blue

If the texture and finish of these really win me over, I will consider getting:
Mink & Sable: olive green
Smoke & Diamonds: Frosty dirty taupee

I think I am only getting 3, possibly 4 shadows from Cool Heat now, instead of all of them. I am just so excited about all these great things coming!

YES, I agree. The BPB have the best silky smooth texture & application. That would make them divine as a shadow

I agree, permanent would be fabulous and SO much easier! I posted my preliminary lists and of course, things always change as we hear more about the collection and see swatches. I, too, am an eyeshadow lover, and if money is tight, I will ALWAYS get the eyeshadows in a collection first, because they are my favorite and I would hate for them to sell out before I get them. As this collection nears, I will cut back on other collections if need be in order to get the shadows I want. (I am already doing so with Neo Sci Fi and Cool Heat). And if we start to hear rumors of the collection being not so great, then it is money saved. At least I can somewhat budget and know how bad the damage will be

oh wowwww, that would be so amazing, imagine some sort of new finish that was a mix of the softness of veluxe pearl, the colour pay-off of frost and the shine of metal-x

Ya know, Bobbi Brown did Metallics trios last fall, and they were insanely popular. I have never tried them, but in all of the pictures and FOTDs I have seen, they look amazing. I am hoping these will be like those. I am so excited to see what these are all about!

I just really HOPE that the pics are doing justice to the REAL THING. B/c a lot of times the pics come off either too bright or too dull. They look bright enough here but we need to calm ourselves a bit until we see actual promo pics of this collection. Breatheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Re: MAC Starflash collection discussion

hmmm...now i'm second-guessing my Cool Heat picks looking at Talent Pool and Star by Night. For whoever has seen these shadows in person, how does Star by Night compare w/ Blue Flame from Cool Heats, and Talent Pool to Gulf Stream (they're both described as blue-green, but one has green shimmer and the other gold...is there much of a difference?)
