Swatches courtesy of Jamie! These make the Neon2 pigments look MUCH more wearable, don’t you think? I ordered a set yesterday, so I’ll be sure to swatch them for you whenever they arrive (my bet is on Wednesday, unfortunately!).

Who doesn’t like deals? When you purchase a Color Lock System Try Me Kit, Zoya will give you a complimentary full size sampler of the Gossip collection (The Hills-inspired launch) when you enter in promo code SUMMER. This promotion will run through Tuesday, June 10th. I have to tell you that the Color Lock System is something that is a staple in my life. I use it all of the time, so it’s well worth trying. The system is designed to give you Anchor (your base coat), Armor (your top coat), Hurry Up (your speed-drying coat), as well as Remove+ (an excellent polish remover that is gentle and easy to use!).
I did some quick comparisons last night, as you can see above!
Warm Chill is closer to Metamorph than Juxt, but instead of having a cool-yellow kind of undertone, Warm Chill is more of a gold-green undertone. They’re different; I definitely wouldn’t say Juxt is a dupe.
Climate Blue isn’t like anything I currently own, but I do think it is similar to Jeweltone (but I think it may be darker/richer in purple, more of a royal purple).
Blue Flame is almost like a cross between Deep Truth and Freshwater — I originally recalled Flashtrack, but thinking about it, I think Flashtrack is darker than Deep Truth (I don’t own it, so I’m going purely by my unreliable memory). It’s definitely not the same as Deep Truth, because it is bluer and a bit brighter; but Freshwater is obviously much lighter than Blue Flame.

MAC PRO launched six new neon pigments that are matte in texture! (Thanks to Krasevayadancer for these images!) Unfortunately, SF PRO is closed for the night (I always order through them, because then the package arrives next day, practically!), but I did call up South Coast Plaza PRO (makes me miss living in Irvine — cause you know your girl would be driving there right now!) to get color names! Since I own so many pigments, I imagine I’ll probably order them all tomorrow morning. Whether I’ll wear them is a different story.
What about you? Would you wear these?
- Red Electric
- Full Force Violet
- Green Space
- Neo Orange
- Magenta Madness
- Kick-It Yellow

Thanks to MAC, I was able to try out three (Warm Chill, Blue Flame, and Climate Bleu) of the seven upcoming shadows and two of the four (High 90s and Swelter) (five?) upcoming slimshines from Cool Heat! Of course, you know I had to get photos and swatches as soon as I got my hands on them, right?
