MAC Cosmetics Colour Ready Collection

Launch Date: April 2, 2009 (North America), April 2009 (International)

Seeking alternative energy, increased mileage from makeup… Colour Ready revs up the Prep + Prime idea, a true hybrid formula between science and beauty. New Transparent Finishing Powder and Line Filler are our lightest yet, in fact invisible when applied, but their silky colourless polymers set and stabilize makeup instantly. The only way to start when you sit down in front of the mirror. Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone is your stay-put fit on skin that minimizes the appearance of pores without clogging, and visibly diminishes them over time. Two Lipsticks, Eye Shadows, Penultimate Eye Liner and Eye Brows in an essential palette are a habit to happily acquire – Colour Ready is as basic as your 4-inch heel Louboutins.

      the original show orchid was a frost, and impassioned is an amplified. everything in this collection except for the prep+prime products are repromotes.

      It’s not boring for people who don’t have the entire MAC collection.

    Promo pic is GORGEOUS, got me all excited, then saw the boring collection info. =_=

    Bor-ing. MAC, you come out with PLENTY of collections, no need to phone it in with this one when you could just take a break for a week.

    the promo picture got me so pumped up, are the prep and primes perm? If so them good for my wallet.

    Everything in this collection looks repromotes, except for the prep+prime products.

    Prep and Prime sounds interesting, well just the finishing powder and the refined zone.

  12. Emma

    Tuesday, January 27, 2009

    I’m all over that green eyeshadow.
    It looks so good with the models eye, which are just slightly darker than mine :)

    • Tanya

      Emma, I have Bitter and its a really amazing green color! I love it :) I am sure anyone who doesnt have it already will go totally nuts for it.

        Agreed…i LOVE bitter, just got it during the F&F sale!s

    I like the promo shots, but I think this collection I’ll pass on.

  14. AshBash

    Tuesday, January 27, 2009

    im going to pass on this collection as well. kind of disappointing. like they didnt try.

  15. Lena

    Tuesday, January 27, 2009

    I am interested in taking a look at these.

  16. Tekoa

    Tuesday, January 27, 2009

    I’d hit the Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder, maybe the line filler too.

    I love love love that promo pic! And now I can finally get my hands on Show Orchid, yipeeeeeeeeeee :D

  18. Stacey

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    Also… inneresting they’re repromoting Impassioned when it’s been d/c. It kind of amuses me the way MAC does that just to push through stock they need to get rid of.

  19. Leah

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    That promo pic is to die for! I love Show Orchid as well. Kind of have/ don’t need the rest.

  20. nikki

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    Show Orchid… yay!

    besides, i wish they would put out the penultimate in more colors. maybe a deep blue or a purple would be nice.

  21. Nicole

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    I will pass this collection too, I already own White Frost and I don’t like green and bright lip colors. Good for my wallet.

  22. Manda

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    what a gorgeous promo pic. i love bright colors, i’ll def try the shadows

  23. Chica

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    It sounds a bit boring but the promotion photo is absolutely gorgeous!!

  24. Vee

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    LoveLoveLove the promo picture! Not too interested in anything this collection has to offer…. except maybe the #129.

    Are the skin products LE?

  26. Laura

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    I don’t have White Frost. Is it low on frost? I need a white that isn’t to frosty but not matte.

  27. Yelizaveta

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    I like the bright colors but that model’s face makes me think of Megan Fox for some reason.

  28. Sheila

    Wednesday, January 28, 2009

    Bitter is mine!

  29. viv

    Thursday, January 29, 2009

    i like the promo pic. but other than that, i’m afraid i’ll have to let this collection pass me by

  30. Charlotte

    Thursday, January 29, 2009

    I love the lips in the promo, but I can’t believe they used Impassioned – that color looks like 80’s music video hot pink on me!

  31. Shanel

    Thursday, January 29, 2009

    IM READY FOR SHOW ORCHID & IMPASSIONED (:

  32. Crystal

    Thursday, January 29, 2009

    Love the promo shot! Show orchid seems lovely.

    I’m actually excited about this collection we saw it at update a few days ago and you the prep and prime stuff is AMMMAZZZZZZZZZZZING. The model our trainer used was in her 40s and was complaining about lines and pores and wow.. an amaaazing difference. all of this stuff contains ingrediants to make a blurring affect. Everyone should at least have a mac artist use this on them to see how awesome the change is.

      Great to hear!

  34. Tracy

    Tuesday, February 3, 2009

    I was going to call for an appt next week – I’ll have to check out the prep and prime (yeah, well 40+), and I want that eyeshadow. I guess I’ll have to wait if it’s not in yet, or just make another appt.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, February 3, 2009

      This doesn’t release for a lil’ bit, later this Spring :)

      • Tracy

        Tuesday, February 3, 2009

        Yes I saw that – at first I wasn’t thinking and thought – Great – I’m going next week – then I realized it not until April – oh well – it will just be an excuse to go again later!

    the promo looks great but the products dont sound so hot

    Sunday, February 8, 2009

    the model skin looks flawless, I can wait to try the prep-primer and the powder.

  37. Elle

    Tuesday, February 10, 2009

    Does this mean that Show Orchid is going to be available without calling the PRO stores? If so, that’d be cool. I actually just picked up Impassioned today and I really love it. I wonder how it’d look if I combined the two?

    • Christine

      Tuesday, February 10, 2009

      Yes :)

      VERY BRIGHT, ha!

    I love this promo pic! I will wear this look!!

    i’ll probably only get my hands on the finishing powder… which is good, since my wallet needs a break after all the other collections that came out.

    Monday, February 16, 2009

    i really like this collection, its small , but i dont have any of the colors listed, so im geting the lippies and the eyeshadows

  41. TinaG

    The crease liner looks blue. Is that just white frost applied over the black liner?
