Ok. I am super stoked for this collection. Not sure if I'm gonna be rocking the black lip (if so it would be the cremesheen) but I definitely want at least 1 MES, the CCB in black! Gonna be rocking the sexy rocker eye
However, I have to be honest, I am not digging the promo images. I was hoping they'd make black look do-able in a chic way, but to me they just scream "juvenile". It looks like it's marketed for younger/teenagers. IDK, I am probably the only one who thinks this way, but there you go.

No, I feel that way to. I was hoping it would be more like "elegant" black, not so gothic. But I still love this collection.

Third. Whenever I'm referencing the "dark lip" for Fall, I try to refer to pictures from other promos. MAC's is just too reminiscent of the gothic, "emo" craze for me. When I think of a dark lip, I want it to be sophisticated and elegant (high fashion? I don't know).. otherwise it sounds silly.
I really hope the eyeshadows are quite pigmented!. I have small almond shaped eyes that's slightly deepset, so I could only use it sparingly in the crease. I wanted to love NARS similar range of blacks (Nightbreed, etc) but they all looked, well, black on first swatch. You had to really 'build' to even see a hint of the colour they had in them.
