Velvety petals of exotic orchid, lily, jasmine and peony are teased with a hint of crimson red raspberry and the gentle texture of pink pepper. The interplay of light and dark woods, weathered teak contrasting with patchouli, adds to the intensity, while hypnotic incense vapours and amber crystals lend a sense of intrigue and allure to this sensuous creation.

OMJ!!! I can not wait for this collection out of all of these only a couple things that i saw and i knew i needed to get them!!! Iam only getting 5 things from this collection but its a rele good collection i will tell u wat iam gettin! Iam gettin both of the beautypowders and the a rose romance lipstick and of summer eyeshadow and the nail lacquer!!!
Cant wait for this collection, im definitly treating myself for my birthday, April 21st, yeyyy! i plan on getting the 2 rose blushes, rose fix and the nail polish!
Thank you very much, Christine. I really appreciate your help -- & thank you for answering so such quick help, too! Does MAC usually open their online doors at any specific time, EST, on that "2nd day before the launch"? xoxoxo
nope, no specific timing unfortunately :( It's usually by the time I'm awake, though - like 7 or 8 am PST.
Greetings, my beauties! I'm new to this GREAT site & SO thrilled to've found it! Since it says here that "Rose Romance" launches 4/23, can anyone please tell me how does one get their hands on these products FAST (like on 4/23, lol!)???? ESPECIALLY when there's no MAC store (nor any dept. store w/a MAC counter) ANYwhere w/in 90 miles? ---- Fer instance, does MAC Online start selling this EXACT SAME collection (& I do mean ALLLL of it!) on their website on 4/23, too? // If not, what do I do, since this really IS an "OMG I'VE GOT TO HAVE SOME !" Collection, like so many of YOU already have said! :D I purposely live in a beautiful rural area (however, thus the 90-miles-to-MAC, too --alas), & I'm also usually house-bound due to chronic illnesses (e.g., Sarcoidosis & Fibromyalgia), so I REALLY NEED TO KNOW what the availability alternatives are for goils like me! DOES ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE AN ANSWER, PLEASE?!?!? Thanks so much!
MAC usually sells it online 2 days before the launch :)
Wow!!! I want so many of these things!! :( but I'm so broke...I guess I better pay up my credit card just so i can fill it again lol
So I've decided that the quad will be my purchase. :D And maybe mutiny. But probably not mutiny. Oh my.
Based on the pics, nothing truly tempt me (apart Shadowy Lady but it's a permanent e/s, right?). This lack of interest might be because I'm not into pink at all. Anyway, I hope it will be launched in France because I know my idea cannot be definitive if I haven't seen the collection for true! ;)
zzzzzz --Not meaning to rain on anyone's parade, but I have been testing the C thru lip colors and the cheek gel.. the color payoff is puny. The lgs are "nice" but more of the same (the magnetique is cool, so is the virgin kiss).. the LS are also a bit more of the same. It feels like MAC has run out of ideas:( .. My wallet is happy tho!!
this is a must have :D
I'm gonna skip Sugarsweet entirely and go for this one! I want Silverthorn eyeshadow, Blush of Youth, Circa Plum and maybe Fix+Rose!
Another collection I'm going to need almost *everything* from! Well, at least I want everything! lol :P So pretty.
This collection sounds amazing. The MSF's, the Fix+, the np, they're all so great!
In the rose romance collection there is no msf! Just sayin! =)
So pretty"!
FINALLY! CIRCA PLUM!
OMG why? I wont have any money this year. I wonder what next years big hit is going to be how will they top HK? Ne one have any good guesses? I hope an I LOVE LUCY collection I am such a fan of that funny red head...lol...can u imagine big fake lashes luscious red lips and a lot of pink and the packaging lol...i'm already dreaming!!!
Blush of Youth looks really pretty.
My two favourites, roses and mac. Have to get one of those rose blushes and FIX + Rose!!!
I have been tempted to buy some Fix+..for the first time and I was unsure about it..but I think I will just hold out for the one in this collection :)
Pass on this one too!
I wish I could say the same lol I admire you! I have no will power at all when it comes to make up- even if I am not that crazy about certain collections, I always find myself getting one thing which turns into two or three- I can talk myself into any thing
This is by far the launch that I am most anticipating in the first half of 2009. I cannot wait to get my hands on this collection!
omg the rose BP is gonna kill me!!!! but if you think about it, what are you gonna do once you get past the imprint? it'll just be a regular BP.
MUST HAVE those beauty powders!!!!!!!!!! and Fix+Rose and EVERYTHING ELSE. now i have to worry about saving up for sugarsweet, grand duos, and now THIS?!!?!!
The beauty powders are BEYOND gorgeous...it's almost cruel. Sculpted into a rose? Yes please!
This collection looks amazing! will they make rose fix+ permanant?
Okay these are really pretty too!!! Why MAC why????? I gotta buy diapers too you know this is unfair!!!! T_T
Virgin kiss looks like a nice colour.
I'm really excited about the Magnetique lipglass, Mutiny pigment and the rose scented Fix+!
i think ill be getting most of this collection!! esp the rose fix + :)
Oh my...thank goodness it's in April so I can recover from HK. I want all the lip products + pigments + eyeshadows! Can't wait.
ooohhhh. my wallet: " HELP ME, MAC IS COMING OUT WITH ANOTHER GREAT COLLECTION, AHHH!" sigh. i want it all.
YAY!!!! My birthday is on April 23 same day it launches. Uber exited for that!!
This collection is going to be so romantic! I cannot believe that they have Mutiny in this collection! I've been wanting Mutiny for a while and will have the oppertunity to get it. I republished it on my site and liked you for credit! You must be on a roll on putting product pics of each collection that us MAC addicts have been wanting to see!
OMG the colors in this line looks divine! I love pinks and purples!!! Thank you so much for always being the first to know about a new collection! I always browse through your site just to find out what is the next collection! You're awesome! <3
I will keep my eye on this collection
Wow, I am in love with those beauty powders! I am super excited for this collection, AND this collection comes out right before my birthday! Maybe then I will have enough cash to grab something from this! :D
So pretty! I want the beauty powders, lipstick, lipglass and maybe one of the 3 see through lipcolors. The eyeshadows and gel blush don't call me. I don't really like the look of gel blush most of the time.
Gorgeous, thx Christine!! i gasped at the rose fix+ ;)
This is pretty awesome. Wow my life needs those beauty powders and the Fix+ Rose. Wow! Thanks!
Oh wow it's gorgeous. Well at least I know how much to budget now. I want all the lipsticks and beauty powders, Of Summer and Shadow Lady eye shadows and the Circa Plum pigment. Thank my lucky stars I have all the other colors and I hate MAC lip glosses. I love the romantic colors. It's nice departure from the Dame Edna and Hello Kitty Easter/Candy colors.
