MAC - To The Beach Discussion

[cougargirl]

I'm not absolutely positive on this, but I believe that a couple collections per year are released internationally prior to being released in the states. Please feel free to correct me if this is wrong. I do not want to give out incorrect information.

I'm happy for all you international ladies! You will have to let us know if there are any duds.

Yeah, didn't like those summer collections either. Alot of the items were too warm. I do love the bronzy blush "other worldly" that I got from moonbathe though. I wish lure would come back!

lol that would be a surprise. It would be better if you opened it and you would hear the sound of the ocean, like you do in a big seashell. haha This is the item that I am excited about the most from this collection. I mean it's a seahorse!!! How can I not be excited?

I remember Iheartmakeup did a FOTD with it and it looked like a really pretty coral.

Style Warriors was ok, I did not really like Moonbathe or Neo Sci-Fi!

I wish I bought more from Lure (my first month into MAC) and I look forward to this collection now!!

Two or three times a year we get a collection earlier than the US

So many pretty things in this collection! Although I do think that I am going to skip most of the lip products.

Audrey & Karin you both look gorgeous in your avatars!

I will try and post a FOTD wearing Instant Chic tomorrow so you can see the difference on the cheek. Honestly, IMO, you can't go wrong with either of them. It just all depends what you are looking for.

that is so sweet of you, thank you

i love that look you posted!

Audrey, I love Hipness on you! Thanks and I look forward to seeing the IC look!

That's exactly what that compact needs to do when you open it!

I think the colors look gorgeous! I love pinky corals so much. Lure was a favorite collection of mine too.

I loved both Neo Sci Fi and Cool Heat. I did buy much more from Cool Heat though. It doesn't matter for me if the collection has a warm or a cool theme. If I like it I buy it, also helps that I have pretty neutral undertones so i can wear anything really.

I didn't really like Style Warrior, it was promising but to me it didn't deliver in person. To the Beach already doesn't wow me. But I'm gonna reserve judgment till I see it in person

so far it's pretty much a skip for me except 1-2 items.

 

[peachsuns]

Hope to see swatches, soon!

 

[clslvr6spd]

Wow, I got a lot to catch up on! I have missed ya'll.

 

[InspiredBlue]

I was at MAC today, and when I walked in the MA was packing up stuff from a big box. I got my hopes up for about a second, but sadly it was just normal stock. But if the TTB stuff does arrive for a May launch, it should be coming in soon.

 

[panther27]

I can't wait to see more swatches,can't wait!
