Why the hell would MAC release an MES with the same name of an existing shadow? Just wondering if someone's got info because I would like to know if I'm buying 3 or 4 MES. If anybody knows, let me know.

there are 4.

all the color stories for upcoming collections are posted in the stickies at the top of the color collections page (Color Collections - Specktra.Net)

the name thingie happens more often than you think. there's also an eyeshadow and a mineral eyeshadow both called quarry

and the worst i've seen is with the barbie collection. there are 2 playful eyeshadows (1 single, another in the quad) with different textures. and the quad is called dollymix, which is the name of a mac blush.

iirc, there used to be a thread in mac chat about different products with the same names in mac chat

If I wear to get a black lipstick I would get the Mattene one 10x over the cremesheen one. The mattene texture is much more opaque and easier to work with. It also isn't drying. Cremesheens on the other hand are kinda slippery...I'm not sure if I want a slippery black lipstick lol!

yah, i prefer the mattene one as well. black is not a color i would use on my lips too often. and if i want a glossy black lipstick, i can always mix black black pigment with a little clear gloss (warning label be damned)

I have the blue flame e/s too. Thanks for reminding me! I had the Mes blue flame added to my list...so maybe I can skip it, even though it is different. Hmmm.
I need to start adding up my totals to see what the damage is going to be. Yikes!!!

Ive got a chinchilla, and I love watching him take a bath in ash! Its so cute and funny!

Guessing ... can black cremesheen and the pink glittered glimmerglass create this look instead of super pricey Chanel?

I'd guess Night Violet and Blackfire would reproduce that Chanel lippie quite nicely. Maybe a little black to darken it up if needed.

oh yes! add a little more black to night violet and that would be a perfect match! that Chanel colour looks very yummy though!

Is this an upcoming chanel collection or a previous one. The chanel addict in me is flipping the hell out and I can't find anything when I google it.
