Hey Sara! If they are anything like the richmetal highlighters from Couture and Stylistics, then they are a bit creamy. But they’re in CCB style, and they definitely have a creamy appearance in the pics, so I think it’s safe to say they will be creamy!
OMG. This collection oh-so-conveniently launches the day after my b-day. I can just say goodbye to all my birthday money RIGHT NOW. *Sigh* Thanks for sharing these, though!
These collections are going to kill me… I could have cared less about Heatherette and Fafi for some reason, but starting a little with NN but mostly Neo Sci Fi, ALL the collections have/look like they will tickle my fancy like crazy!!!
I used to live a few blocks from a Nordstrom when I lived in L.A. - now, the closest one is in the Chapel Hill/Raleigh area of NC, which is an hour and a half away on a good day. Guess I’ll have to order on line if I want any….
WTF happend to the green pigment? did they change the color? The first green pigment picture is nothing like the green pigment in this picture…whats up with that??????
I adore the packaging but I am gonna pass on the shadow compacts :(
I would like the pink lipstick and am gonna have to check out the pigements.
Hey MJR! I have only played with the ones from Couture and Stylistics, and I definitely didn’t care for those, but these look different - hopefully better!
Hey Joey! IMO, brush sets are worth getting when you’re 1) new to MAC; b) cheap/on a budget; c) travel a lot. I find that the brushes are decent for the price (compared to the prices of them full sized!). They’re great for when you’re not sure you’re ready to shell out $42 on the 187!
I’m loving the dark blue and pink-reddish pigments!
I am also eyeing the red brush set as the brushes would seem to be more practical than the blue and green set. I wonder how much they are going to cost.
Also, what’s in the center of those lipsticks?
Yay! Thanks Christine for this awesome eye stimulant!!!
Sorry I’m a little lost here…
Is this a nordstrom exlusive or a regular MAC collection coming out in the states? In addition, will this be available this coming July also?(like the nordstrom exlusive).
Nordie’s exclusive. I don’t think it’ll be anywhere except Nordstrom’s, their website, and the Bay. But I could be wrong - I think I heard rumors that it would be online at the MAC site, but I haven’t heard it substantiated yet.
Ahaha. I just realized the word colour is spelled using British english. :D Nvm bout that… why oh why MAC. I want both eye palettes, the green pigment (humid in a bottle?) and the pink lipstick. Ah there goes my money for the next 3 months.
I have a little rant though. I wonder why the Heatherette launch in Malaysia is like in July…and yet, NN & Skinsheen came out last week and Neo Sci-fi is coming out next week. :/ I’m peeved.
I’ll get the 4 pigments that are new (have two of those already), and maybe one or two lipsticks…but the rest I can easily pass on…eh, not my cup of tea. Though the richmetal highlighters do intrigue me :-)
Aww. The brush bags are so cute! I wish you could just buy those separately because I already have most of those brushes. :( This packaging isn’t at all what I expected! It’s really simple but also really cute. Quite a different style for MAC. I definitely want the blue shadow palette (Cool Eyes?) and the purple Richmetal. Not really interested in the lipsticks (is it just me, or did MAC copy Avon?) but definitely want all the piggies, minus the two repromotes! Thank god this is for July so we still have time to save. I’m going to stab someone if anymore release dates get pushed up. I’m hoping my wishlist stays that small. Thanks for posting these, Christine! :)
OMG! I am new to MAC, I have only been with it and nice make-up in general since feb, so this is my first time seeing something like this. Everything looks sooooooooooooo pretty. I really need a couple of brushes and the palettes are gorgeous. SO EXCITED. Thanks for posting.What will you be getting Christine? Any suggestions for must haves? :)
hm, i really hope that it’s not just the way the picture looks… some other pictures of the lipsticks show them sideways and doesn’t show the middle part… it would be really cool to have stuff in the middle lol.
Nice! It’s similar, not the same as the full size - but it’s definitely WORTH the price if the 187 is out of your budget (or you’re just cheap, like I was).
HEY Y’ALL…if you really want this stuff and don’t live near a Nordstrom, call your nearest store and talk to the MAC counter about what you want, if you order from a store the shipping is free…just FYI! :)
SCREW YOU NORDSTROM EXCLUSIVE! now i have to drive 50+ milessss waaaahh
Order online? It’d save you gas $$!
Do you know when it will be available online? I don’t have a Nordstrom near me either and would love to buy it online!!!
This launches July 18th, so around then, I would think!
pee ess what are richmetal highlighters exactly? they look a little like ccbs are they creamy?
Hey Sara! If they are anything like the richmetal highlighters from Couture and Stylistics, then they are a bit creamy. But they’re in CCB style, and they definitely have a creamy appearance in the pics, so I think it’s safe to say they will be creamy!
Ditto…except I’m like 150 miles away =[ Their shipping is so expensive too…
Aww! Shipping is still cheaper than gas :(
You may want to call & see if they’ll ship it to you that way for cheaper…
I think I’m just going to make an ISO post on Livejournal, since I only really want Inner Hue. =]
Sounds like a good plan, Annie!
I see about 1000 things I need lol
LOL, uh oh, Brooke! Caution: Major haul ahead!
OMG. This collection oh-so-conveniently launches the day after my b-day. I can just say goodbye to all my birthday money RIGHT NOW. *Sigh* Thanks for sharing these, though!
LOL, hey, at least you’ll have birthday money to spend on it ;) That’s fun money!
These collections are going to kill me… I could have cared less about Heatherette and Fafi for some reason, but starting a little with NN but mostly Neo Sci Fi, ALL the collections have/look like they will tickle my fancy like crazy!!!

Hey Jennifer!
At least you were spared Heatherette and Fafi! It gives you a little more moolah for the other collections!
omg…….i want just about everything! good thing we can get this in canada at the bay.
lol!! Yayy, I’m glad it’s coming to The Bay!
I just passed out!! this is insanely beautiful!! I love it so much!!
LOL!! I can’t wait for the lipsticks! Hello, inner core? Mysterious!
WTF happend to the green pigment? did they change the color? The first green pigment picture is nothing like the green pigment in this picture…whats up with that??????
I adore the packaging but I am gonna pass on the shadow compacts :(
I would like the pink lipstick and am gonna have to check out the pigements.
These promo images are always WAY off in colour.
True that.
These pictures are way different than the ones we saw before, for most of the things!
Christine!!!!!!
Have you ever tried the richmetal high lighters?
Hey MJR! I have only played with the ones from Couture and Stylistics, and I definitely didn’t care for those, but these look different - hopefully better!
Ooh, the pigments look gorgeous!
I’m always apprehensive when it comes to brush sets though “/ I got one last year, and the quality in the brushes themselves weren’t up to par. Lame.
I agree….the brushes are not good at all.
Hey Joey! IMO, brush sets are worth getting when you’re 1) new to MAC; b) cheap/on a budget; c) travel a lot. I find that the brushes are decent for the price (compared to the prices of them full sized!). They’re great for when you’re not sure you’re ready to shell out $42 on the 187!
Totally agree! I got a set to start me out and maybe they’re not as good as the normal brushes, but it was a fantastic way to start my collection :)
Man. I envision myself getting…pretty much EVERYTHING!
LOL! Better start saving, Meesh!
Oh, i like the look of these pics better than the old info. Especially the highlighters and pigments. And those are lip palettes? Hmmm….. ;)
I agree, Carrie! They look more true-to-life, at least, too.
Ohhhhh, I like. I want the warm eyes pallet, one of the basic brush sets and the nude/pink lipstick in the middle.
Do you own full size MAC brushes or any other MAC brush sets, Joli?
Not yet. I have Sephora brushes and they’ve been working great, but I’m curious to try the MAC style ones.
I think you’ll enjoy them, Joli!
I’m loving the dark blue and pink-reddish pigments!
I am also eyeing the red brush set as the brushes would seem to be more practical than the blue and green set. I wonder how much they are going to cost.
Also, what’s in the center of those lipsticks?
Yay! Thanks Christine for this awesome eye stimulant!!!
Hey Kharina! I’m all over the pigments… of course ;P
I think the center is a shimmery kind of core.
omg are you kidding me!!! i am so lovin it.
those blush paletts are to die for
I can’t wait to see the Colour Form powders either!
Sorry I’m a little lost here…
Is this a nordstrom exlusive or a regular MAC collection coming out in the states? In addition, will this be available this coming July also?(like the nordstrom exlusive).
Thanks!
Nordie’s exclusive. I don’t think it’ll be anywhere except Nordstrom’s, their website, and the Bay. But I could be wrong - I think I heard rumors that it would be online at the MAC site, but I haven’t heard it substantiated yet.
But yes, July 18th!
Thankfully we are only getting the palettes and brush sets here, so my wallet is somewhat safe!
Ohh, lucky (or unlucky?!) you! ;P Well, lucky wallet, there!
MAC is really on a roll this year. I think I’m gonna faint…
Uh oh, Lehea! We’ll revive you with the smelling salts :)
Ahaha. I just realized the word colour is spelled using British english. :D Nvm bout that… why oh why MAC. I want both eye palettes, the green pigment (humid in a bottle?) and the pink lipstick. Ah there goes my money for the next 3 months.
I have a little rant though. I wonder why the Heatherette launch in Malaysia is like in July…and yet, NN & Skinsheen came out last week and Neo Sci-fi is coming out next week. :/ I’m peeved.
Yep! MAC tends to use British spellings on occasion.
How weird! Crazy international release dates!
Love the new MAC logo!!!! All of it looks cool…but as with the last few collections…not sold on anything until I see it in person.
I’m curious about the MAC logo or whatever, it looks like a sticker :(
I’ll get the 4 pigments that are new (have two of those already), and maybe one or two lipsticks…but the rest I can easily pass on…eh, not my cup of tea. Though the richmetal highlighters do intrigue me :-)
Yeah, I’ll be getting those too, I’m sure!
omg, i am getting, i am getting. i love the packaging, i don’t care.
Hey Victoria! So will you really be getting EVERYTHING?
Aww. The brush bags are so cute! I wish you could just buy those separately because I already have most of those brushes. :( This packaging isn’t at all what I expected! It’s really simple but also really cute. Quite a different style for MAC. I definitely want the blue shadow palette (Cool Eyes?) and the purple Richmetal.

I’m going to stab someone if anymore release dates get pushed up. I’m hoping my wishlist stays that small. Thanks for posting these, Christine! :)
I have so many brush sets, I definitely don’t need more!
I’m actually not lovin’ the new palette packaging, just because it seems kind of boring? I don’t know! Looks more like everyone else’s palettes.
i am gonna get 6 items,the blue eye palette,2 RM highlighters, 3 pigments and that’s it.
I love how precise you are, Nouna :) Sounds like a nice haul!
OMG! I am new to MAC, I have only been with it and nice make-up in general since feb, so this is my first time seeing something like this. Everything looks sooooooooooooo pretty. I really need a couple of brushes and the palettes are gorgeous. SO EXCITED. Thanks for posting.What will you be getting Christine? Any suggestions for must haves? :)
Awww!! The beginning is the best part, so much to learn and see an get!
No clue what I’m getting - we’ll see how I feel. I so rarely reach for palettes, so they always end up sitting around collecting dust.
this collection is so totally cute…must have
Nice, what are you most interested in, Jeni?
Oh wow very different. I still love that is like Holiday collection in the summer. I have to have that neutral trio.
Lets hope I remember to order from Nordies lol.
I know, right? How very odd.
But I like these pics better!
OMG I want the palettes!! NAOW! And the pigments! ALLL OF IT!! *DROOL*
Better start saving, girl!!
The girl in the picture… does anyone think that might be Australian model Catherine McNeil?
I couldn’t tell you… hopefully someone else is more helpful!
darn, i was going to go on a mac break after solar field/future earth…i guess not…i love the packaging…i hate mac, they’re making me go broke
lol, they’re making us ALL go broke, Anne!
MAC is making me broke.
I am liking the brush set and pigments.
I am still waiting for SolarBits and Neo Sci Fi. Dang, I can’t keep up with their new collections. Stop!!!!!
At least we can all be broke together. :)
What is that round stuff in the middle of the lipstick? Is it supposed to be like balm or something? Cuz that’d be pretty cool :D
The brush set looks cool too. Other than that, nothing else really interests me…
I think it might be like a highlighter/additional shimmer? No clue, lol. I know it’s the “inner core” though.
hm, i really hope that it’s not just the way the picture looks… some other pictures of the lipsticks show them sideways and doesn’t show the middle part… it would be really cool to have stuff in the middle lol.
I think they all have the inner core, Lily! :)
oh my gosh, i passed on heatherette, naughty nauticals and neo sci-fi but i won’t pass on these!!!
What interests you the most, Nicole?
HOOOOLY MOOOLY WOHOO
love the packaging …the lippies look great and the green piggie and the powders wow i will get broke with this one dammmit lol
Can’t wait to see the lippies either, Claudine!! Yes, it’s gonna be a broke-ass summer!
went is it coming out. is it at the mac store or nordr and went is it coming out love them all>.
Nordstrom’s exclusive, due out July 18th!
OMG.
I want every single thing in this collection, in fact I may NEED it :/
Christine - is this going to be released everywhere do you know?
Uh ohhhh! Start saving ;D It launches in Nordstrom’s only, I believe. July 18th!
wow.. this collection seems awesome! i love the brush. especially the one with mini 187. will it be as good as the normal size 187?
Nice! It’s similar, not the same as the full size - but it’s definitely WORTH the price if the 187 is out of your budget (or you’re just cheap, like I was).
Does the blue compact look like naughty nauticals? or is it just the photo? anyone know what the color names are?
:)
The color details are at the link at the top of the post, Calico :)
HEY Y’ALL…if you really want this stuff and don’t live near a Nordstrom, call your nearest store and talk to the MAC counter about what you want, if you order from a store the shipping is free…just FYI! :)
Really?! I didn’t know it was free shipping from Nordstrom! I thought they did have a flat fee.
They do if you order online. But if you call a store they usually waive the shipping fees.
Ouuu…what a wonderful world…love the eyeshadow sets and almsot everything of this collection.
Nice! What are you most excited over, S?
Hello christine,It’s hard to tell which excite me most. They just look nice but my favorite color is green. What’s your color?
Oh gosh, I couldn’t tell you. I love all colors, lol. Maybe gold?
