MAC - To The Beach Discussion

[Face2Mac]

I kinda wish they were coming out a brush set with this collection with the same light green packing. I probably wouldn't buy it, but it still would be cool.

I don't remember how many brush sets they have had for summer, if any.

I think I am just loving on this right now, Can't wait until it comes out

All lemmings for this collection killed after seeing previews of Dior Summer 2010. It has items that look very summer friendly for some of us who are a bit "pigment challenged".

So it will be just Hipness blush for me on this one.

Face2Mac, I love your new signature!

I totally agree. The quints coming out are to die for!

I think that I'm going to treat myself to Shimmermoss and Humid later this week as a midway-through-exams present to myself (haha any excuse will work!). That should take some of the pressure off my wallet when the rest of this launches.

I can't believe that I don't already own Shimmermoss and Humid! I guess I've been taking for granted shopping my mom's stash all of these years. Now that I'm living on my own, it's going to take a while to fill in all of those gaps!

Thankfully, I can pass on most of the bronzing goodies since I'm fair as can be. Looks like maybe a couple of the LE eyeshadows, a lippie, Hipness and the lacquers for me!

oh thank goodness i took a look at the info on this collection. it used to be that i would want to buy EVERYTHING from a collection that had special packaging, didn't matter if the color flattered me or not.

for the time being only hipness blush and the bronzers (since i don't have any MAC bronzers) interest me. we shall see if i'll get anything else!

There are no brush sets with the summer collections, but usually with the Nordstrom anniversary collection in July (Graphic Garden in 09, Colour Forms in 08, Novel Twist in 07).

I thought of you this morning as I was putting on my makeup, Susanne. I know how much you love your teals too

I can't wait for the teal liner from this collection. I bet it will look amazing with so many teal shadows

ok that sounds like a look i need to be doing!

teals!

I think I'm going to end up with Shimmermoss and Sweet & Punchy, as well as Lazy Day Lipstick. If I don't like the lipstick, then I might check out Easy Lounger or Splashing lipglass.

I rather like the packaging, but I wasn't a MAC user for the collection before this with the orange packaging. I absolutely love the white seashells, seahorses, and starfish on the packaging too! The coral on the liners are my favorites, but I'll have way too many eye-liners after Art Supplies!

Ok I'm thinking of 5 items max from this collection. It's a little more than I originally intended but since it's "the" summer collection and I most likely won't be getting a lot before this, then it's okay

So far I'm thinking:
-Shimmermoss e/s
-the orange l/l
-Cream bronzer
-the pink l/s
-a surprise

Of course my list will change 100x before it's released but hopefully I will stick to this

 

[Susanne]

" a surprise" sounds great!

 

[caramel_geek]

Need swatches to further narrow down my list

Lol, I'm the opposite. I need swatches to make my list! I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm just not excited by this collection.

I think it's because I feel we've seen this stuff before.

 

[angelisagemini]

This collection is being released on my 25th birthday....so I immediately thought I should just buy one of everything, lol. Though the more I look at them the more my list gets cut down. I'm loving the eyeliners and the pink lipliner but I never put anything on my waterline, because it always ends up under my eye. I also never line my lips...so I'm thinking maybe I'll end up with a l/s and l/g and that's it.
So sad that seahorse is an overspray.

 

[Susanne]

I have my list! I will love this collection.
