Same :-( Kind of bummed....the copper palette seems to have the best colors but I was really hoping the teal was going to be good. I already have all the lip colors in the pink palette and most in the red and nudes are a no no, so skip.

Just talked to a online rep who advised me to save for the holidays collections as "these don't blow me away". She seemed to like the pink lip and Creative Copper pallettes but said that they were not unique. I was all amped up but now not so much. The CCO may eventually be my best option for CC. I just wished that I could have gotten some info on the DN collection but no such luck. Trust me, it is not for lack of effort as I have tried but all my attempts have proven futile thus far. Update will be in October is all I am being told. The PLWs aren't going anywhere anytime soon so I may just wait until the end of October for all things Mac after my 'lil event tomorrow.

Omg, if my mom did that I'd probably disown her.

This is the teacher in me, but I need her to re-read/re-write that first paragraph. "It contains three limited edition shades of lipstick with a red theme. Two of the shades are repormotes and one is part of the permanent range." HUH? I stopped reading after that. I think I have plenty of the lipsticks in this palette.

I'm thinking about getting the nude lip pallet but I don't know if it's worth it and how it looks great on T so not sure if it would look as good on a fair complexion ..especially that second color in it..I need input lol

I think these colors would look great on a fair complexion, especially since the pink seems to lean a little pastel.

Definitely getting the pink palette. I own none of the colors. I've been meaning to get candy yum yum but this would be much better as I don't think it's a color I would use super regularly. The nude palette is gorgeous on T! However, my coloring is somewhere between Karen and T's and don't think it would look as flattering on me.

 i'm going to have to get this palette....i've been meaning to candy yum yum and violetta anyway so this is a good deal.

I've been wanting these colors as well, so I might as well get them together (no other way to get moxie anyways!)

I can't believe the rep said that. Good to know though. I'm going to wait for the CCO too. My want list for other lines is super long right now. Besides I haven't had as much fun when I go to the CCOs lately because I have everything already.

Thank you! its made my decision easier now

My mum takes my stuff without telling me too. I just noticed watch me simmer lipstick in her make up bag and she's worn it down loads. She took my cut caper too and broke it... These are the problems that arise when you have so many lipsticks. You don't know they're missing till its too late. I keep telling her they're l.e so I won't be able to get a replacement.

Did anyone receive a glossy card from Mac with all the promo pics inviting you to have your photograph taken and create a look with an artist inspired by the era when fashion, art and disco reigned supreme? It is shiny and oh so beautiful!

No way - that sounds so cool. I JUST got my Indulge postcard from my local store. Hmph.

Glad I don't have that problem lol. My mom doesn't wear lipstick too much.

I'm still somewhat interested in the pink face palette and the copper eye palette. I'm partially justifying it to myself because I'm going away on holiday and compact things like palettes would be a good idea. However, if they don't wow me when I can swatch them in person, I'll probably just get a new individual bronzer and blush, plus Free To Be eyeshadow and a gold eyeliner... and therefore end up spending more money than if I'd just got the palettes. I also want to know how much they're going to cost here in the UK. If they're above £35, that's just ridiculous and I'd much rather spend my money on individual products.

For those interested in face palettes that have blush bronzer and highlighter I highly recommend trying Lancome blush subtil palettes. I have these two - framboise flirt and nectar lace. they have the most amazing powder texture it is unbeliveable smooth, silky and pigmented

Interesting! I can only find Nectar Lace available on UK websites, but hopefully Framboise Flirt might still be available in shops (I like NL, but FF looks gorgeous).
