The controversy concerns the "inspiration" of this collection. The Rodarte sisters were inspired by a mexican city know for its drug cartel and violence towards women. So namming products as Juarez, Fabric, Sleepwalker, Bordertown is bad taste, to say the less.
Personally, I'm very shocked.

Yes,I can see where this discussion is coming from.But as horrible as the things are that happened there,it's still just a name of a place.I'm sure there is more to that place than just those violant happenings.
I understand it like Rodarte was inspired by that area not the events that took place.Even though I don't really understand the uproar,I appreciate the discussion,since MAC is now donating some money from the collection.Maybe the whole theme wasn't the best choice for MAC and Rodarte,because it doesn't seem to fit the mainstream taste.I have to admit,the promo pic irritated me a little bit,too.But I see it as art,so I still like it.

I don't want to bring the polemic to this topic, but I really think that some names are very evocative (Sleepwalker? It's not very inspirational privileged women using makeup based on this). That photo can be considered art, but explored without a context it lacks social criticism and empathy.
Well, there's a topic for this. I just really wanted to answer your commented, because maybe you didn't know the background of the controversy

Does store exclusive mean it's also online on maccosmetics.de? |

I know! They closed since June or mid June in KaDeWe
I've been lemming Taj Mahal for the longest time, and I finally got the budget for it. I decided to order online instead this time. Shopping online is fine, but It's really a pity that you couldn't try and swatch things anymore

About Nars, I wanna to try a new eyeshadow duo, because I'm not sure that will work for me. I've gone there last Saturday and... where is the counter? Am I crazy?
From where did you ordered, Astrid? I know just Kiss and Makeup NY and Cosme-de. TIA!

Oh, I wasn't getting anything, but I completely forgot about Look in a Box! They're gorgeous, maybe I'll get Frisky Girl too

I will skip Digi Pops. The only thing I was interested was a BP, but I will not get a whole box for it.
And Dare To Wear, not sure. Sassy Grass looks really nice though

I have just one eyeshadow from NARS and I like it a lot, although I have been told that their quality is as fickle as MACs, so maybe I was lucky. You can also buy NARS at hqhair.co.uk.

Oh yeah, I forgot about hqhair, thanks Birgit!
I've a Nars eyeshadow. The color is really great, but I need to use it over UDPP. The problem is that I'm not sure if the one that I'm interested (Rajasthan) will look good on me, or if a have similar product
Nars is a little pricey to buy without being sure

I don't know yet which colours I'll be buying from the Dazzle lipsticks.I definitely want Hellraiser,but I'm still thinking about Glaringly Hip,Hot Sass and Naughty You.I'll be skipping Dare to Wear.Oh,but I want the new quad palettes.
I read something in a different forum about the release date of the collections.Some people said it will be in stores on saturday.Is it possible that the release dates of the stores and the onlineshop are different?
