A couple of things. The Chanel eyeliner I think was released about 4 months ago in the teal looks great with the summer cream shadows and TF Midnight Sea. The TF summer lipsticks are going to be part of the regular line. The actual TF website offers all the colors including the ones from last summer. At least they did, the last time I looked which was about a week ago. Nude Dip, it will be part of the normal line, will be released in May. Yes, pre-orders should be up soon on the normal sites (NM, BG, Nordie's, etc.) I have found that it takes quite some time to get these items back in stock, once the initial shipment is sold out. Rumor has it Black Orchid, Forbidden Pink and others will be released for Fall 2015 or Holiday 2015. If you snooze, you will lose.
MAC is re-organizing due to numerous reasons. Many customers have moved on to other brands. Their target market has always been teens to late 20's. As well as the issue of things being sold out, prior to even being offered on the so-called release date. They are re-thinking how to keep their target market as they age. Think of Levi's many years ago. They refused to address the changing needs of their original target market. As in young men, that are in high school and college. As they aged, their waist bands grew, as well as their butts. When the company was on the verge of entering dangerous profit loss, they re-invented themselves. As in offered jeans for the "fuller" fit. My parent's would be so proud I actually remember some of the business/marketing classes I took in college.
I have also viewed MAC as a mid-range price point product. Yes, I without question, own MAC products. Love and still use their brush cleaner. Best price for the money. If you crave a good vampy lip, MAC has it. Again, they have over saturated their target market with products. Where as with other big cosmetics, they have a pretty set market release. With maybe a few unknown, their website only release. Nothing like MAC, as in around 24 different campaigns a year. Their quality has also had serious issues. I have always found their lip gloss tacky. Business lesson done. What the collectors go for now, is the unique package. Not so much the product.
Lastly, those who crave TF Pure Pink, if you got the Boy's Cooper, it is the same. Just as I was a dumb ass and purchased Smoked Red, and the Boy's one that is ??? can't remember the name but it is the same. I swatched,and there is no difference. Unlike the dupe shadows for summer 2015. My Midnight Sea and the Peach are not Spice and Spring 2015. I will take a picture. When my father even with his glasses off can see the Peach and Spice are not the same color in the jar, you so know they are not dupes. Done with my rant.....
