MAC Strength Collection Discussion (December 2012)

[rubytitania]

My provisional list:

Lipsticks
Strong Woman – Bright violet (Matte)
Absolute Power – Rich red (Matte) *maybe, depending on dupes*
Firm Form – Gilded black with gold pearlized pigments (Matte)
Lip pencil
Embrace Me – Vivid pinkish fuchsia

...and that's probably it! I was interested in the Inner Strength quad, but I already have Heatherbelles (it sucks) and the other colours don't sound exciting enough to warrant a purchase.

 

[MichaelaLou]

If anyone from the us would be able to cp three lipsticks for me in uk please lmk

 

[MACerette]

This collection will also come to the Netherlands, right? Otherwise I'll need a cp for a backup of Party Parrot

 

[PeachTwist]

See, this is my worry. If we don't get it, I need a CP. But I asked the other day and they said they couldn't give me any info til the end of November. NEED TO KNOW, MAC.

 

[Prettypackages]

Oh yay! Embrace Me is back. I didn't even realize that.

i wouldnt mind doing cp's but what if i miss the products??? . ill let you know if i can put 3 of each on hold at my mac store, this week, or atleast 2. then you have to be my company for the launch online! i really sucks that its mac only. i can usually pre order at the nordstrom counter too.

 

[aradhana]

That's true, I'm sure they may but I'm still nervous as we didn't get Ruffian which was MAC only, wasn't it?

do you think it might be one of those collections released only to a few selfridges or something?

I'm sure the UK will get this collection. It's usually a few of the designer/celebrity ones that might be US exclusive.

so far I want these


Lipstick
Pink Pigeon – Bright cleanest pink (Matte) °
Strong Woman – Bright violet (Matte)


All Woman Eye Shadow x4
Flawless Figure – Pale warm shimmering white (Veluxe Pearl)
Brains & Brawn – Mid-tone taupe (Matte)
All Woman – Greenish dark grey (Satin)
Black Magique – Deep dark black with warm tones (Velvet) °

and the blushes! this one sounds exciting

Oh yay! Embrace Me is back. I didn't even realize that.

I still have mine, it's a great color and since it's lip pencil it stays on so good! debating if I should get a back up even though I barely use mine

Black base + Ruffian Gold = Firm Form?

I tried it last night and that's pretty much what it looked like.

Sounds like a perfect dupe

I tried that when I knew about firm form but the black with the gold ruffian turned to this ugly greenish color,at least on my skin tone. I am hoping it would not look like that.

 

[Yazmin]

If I can get my hands on extras, I'd be happy to do CPs. I'll post if/when I get them.

For those curious, I used the black chromagraphic pencil. And yes, I can kinda see how it might turn greenish because you aren't laying just glitter on top.

Are the chromagraphic pencils on Pro?

 

[GlamQueen21]

^The Chromagraphic Pencils are on the regular website as well.

I don't know if this has been posted but here is Firm Form lipstick in the middle: source: http://www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/be...uty-spring-summer-2013-milan#!image-number=46

I'm very behind on what is going on, as I'm trying to skip the Holidaze stuff. When does the Gamour Era LS come out & what collection?? I. NEEDS. THAT. NOW. Thank you!

 

[OctoberViolet]

According to the website it's: Glamour Era, which is beautiful.

Thank you.
