That could be just a typo. I've heard about kohl powders and kohl pencils, but never kohl POWERS. Unless anyone else has?

Just thinking about this collection gives me chills. I'm deff getting the quads, and if all the lips are truly nude, they are so mine. I'm a sucker for nude lips. Not sure about the Kohl Powers. Gonna have to test them first.

Oh my, now I´m confused...Kohl PowDer, Kohl Power...The name doesn´t really matter, but...Does anybody know what this is? Has anybody seen one of those? TIA!

I'm excited about the prospect of this collection. I surely hope that neither of the quads dissappoint (i.e. the highlighter shade is so ghostly light and/or satin/matte in texture that I can't use it). I thought both of the Welsh quads were ugly. I hope, hope, hope that I can use every color in both quads, I love quads! I have a personal rule that if I can't use every color in a quad, I won't buy it (palettes are a bit diff.)
Now I am NW45 with pigment lips, but I like nude lips, but nude lips, and pale lips, are two differen't (although not unrelated) things. If these are nude lipsticks (like Honey Moon from Moonbathe) I am all over it and very excited! I love Honey Moon! If these are pale lips, like Myth, or something pale, light, and pink (making it completely unwearable for me unless I alter it with a lip liner, in which case, what is the point) I will not be a happy camper. Don't dissappoint me MAC!
But with cheek colors, pigments, lipglasses, five lipsticks (there has to be atleast one that people of color can wear, MAC's not dumb) and this kohl liner, there is something for everyone.
Question: When doing a dark, smokey eye, and nude or pale lips, what do you do with the cheeks? Highly contoured? Dramatic, natural flush? Let's speculate on the blushes!

If the majority of the lipsticks are similar the this swatch that bjorne_again did for Cutie (which was super cute on her) I will be sad.

I do my cheeks more bronzed and contoured. Not too dark since I'm pretty fair (NW20) but I'll use a light bronzer allover and then a swipe of something like NARS Lovejoy with my 187 brush. Therefore I hope some blushes will b in this vein as sometimes MAC's are either too dark or too sparkly.
I agree with you that pale lips (on me) are horrid but nude is different. I can wear Sharp Beige with no problem but a color like Plink or Gel would not be pretty.

Enjoy!!
I REALLY hope one of the quads includes a frosted black with silver pearl. I think that'd be really nice. Like an eyeshadow form of Nightfall Nail Lacquer.

I LOVE Gel. I was looking for a nude lip and the MA put on Cork liner with Gel lipstick and clear gloss. I stared at my lips at every mirror I passed.

I'm a bit disappointed that there is only one new pigment - this would have been the perfect opportunity for MAC to FIX and re-release Dark Soul properly this time as well as launch a bunch of super dark pigments..... dont get me wrong I will buy Smoke Signal pigment for sure as I didnt ever get Maroon, but its a bit of a let down really. I think the quads in this collection will be better value!
