This post will be updated as information, images, swatches, and reviews become available. If it’s not on the blog, I don’t have more information, or, in rare instances, I’m not allowed to post until a certain date. If you have information not yet posted on Temptalia, feel free to submit it! It can be collection information, photos, swatches–whatever! Just send it to submit@temptalia.com.
All dates are subject to change. You should always call your local store/counter to verify the date, because MAC does have a habit of releasing launches a week or so earlier. Please note that collections launch online typically the Tuesday before the Thursday on-counter date.
