Sigh, I want to kick filters in their face. I just think of all these loooovvvveeeeellly pics that have been posted so far and am bummed because the majority have that 'arty' filter that could make Saint Germain look like Ruby Woo. Argh, thanks IG, you've made makeup pics kinda suck.

I never filter my makeup pics. I filter other things, but not makeup!
You're darn right! Like I think some pics are gorgeous, I do like when someone has their makeup beautifully applied and puts on that cute filter. But...when you're showing your brand new MAC lipsticks still in the black box or some new collection pics...time to go boring old school Kodak with it because I want the correct tone, color, saturation, lighting, etc.

I got an invite to the MAC Betty or Veronica private party. What is that all about?
anyone.gif

lol As much as I love MAC, I know little about their collection parties.
These are by invitation events at which invitees get to see and purchase new collection items, usually before they are launched for the general public. The events are well organized, and there are servers for the food & drink if you choose to indulge. I suspect requiring an invitation, requiring RSVP and requiring appointments helps with crowd control. For the Archie's Girls event my appointment is at 7PM. I will have preordered my goods, but they give you a sheet with a list of the collection items and you select what you want, as you peruse the products. They generally have photo ops and giveaways, and/or other activities related in some way to the theme of the collection. I'll make it a fun outing with a friend whom I've invited along...we'll probably grab dinner out, have lots of girl talk and buy some fun makeup. All-in-all, the MAC events that I've attended are well planned & well executed. Try it, if only once.

No, its still in april. The owner of those pics is from the middle east. Maybe they're releasing together over there. :dunno:

technically I stole the pic...where are my manner photo courtesy of Antoine Dodson, I thought I got the invitation to the Archie Event.
I was all excited getting an envelope from MAC turns out it was only a promo card for some older collection. Imagine the huge
disappointment I had :/ ay. I tried to pre-order they're not doing it at any counter or store, all the muas said NO! sigh...

No, they are not being released with AG. They are around, samples for insiders etc ,not yet available to the general public. Most collections are planned and made long in advance before release dates. Those are just sneak pics that we are privileged to view because we are extra special here. I am not an expert or anything but that is my impression. HTH

Just got both of the new UD palettes for the Oz movie. They are an amazing deal and they are awesome! Only two of the shades have glitter, The only flaw for me.other than that they are fab! Since I got these babies tonight I've got to take it more easy on Archie's collec. I need to whittle my list down. Still can't wait to swatch Archie in person. Called my Mac at Macy's they said they got the collec. I. And to call tomorrow to see when it's available to look at.
