Posted in: MAC Cosmetics, Product Photos/Swatches

Debbie did some swatching of the Electroflash mineralize eyeshadow duos!  I think I can pass for sure now!  What about you?  Did these increase or decrease your lemmings?

      well let me rephrase.. there are a few nice ones that I would like to have in my collection, but my bank account is still recovering from the past 3 collections!

        I know exactly how you feel, Ashley!

    • Christine

      I believe late July or early August, Jess!

    I do find two attractive. Hot contrast and Polar Opposites.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Do you think you’ll get either of them (or both)?

      • Kharina

        Tuesday, June 24, 2008

        After seeing how much MAC STUFF is lined up waiting to come out…I think neither LOL…rather put my money on other products…ya know what I mean?

        • Christine

          Wednesday, June 25, 2008

          LOL, no, I totally understand where you’re coming from!

    I want Odd Couple and Pink Split for sure!

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Oh, fun! Are you a big fan of the mineralize eyeshadow duos, Cassie?

    Two to Glow looks pretty, but how many gold/brown eyeshadows do I really need?

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      That’s what I always ask myself, even as I hand over my credit card for yet another one!

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    They are pretty to look at in the compact, but I think I prefer regular e/s regarding color payoff and smoothness.

  7. Sarah

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    These are pretty, but I have been lusting Cool Heat more. So now I can spend money on that and not have to worry. Good!

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      That’s good, Sarah! Glad it worked out for ya!

    I have no interest in the mineral makeup…I’ve never tried it, but I don’t really see a need to…maybe I’m just missing something…??

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      lol! You know, mineral makeup is fine, but I haven’t caught onto the must-have-it mentality, though.

    I had higher expectations for this collection. I consider the eyeshadows to be “eye candy’. They are pretty to look at, however the swatches made me wanting to get all the shadows to only two. This is good for my bank account. =)

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      I know what you mean! I like the look of the duos, but I’ve never been too satisfied with the pay off/texture.

  10. Brooke

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I think I like Two To Glow & Play On Plums.. I didn’t want any before I saw the swatches. I tend to buy all of the MES’ and then swap/sell them because I never reach for them or I have something similar in the more handy pan form. It’s just as well, Colour Forms may drain me lol

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      I do that, too, Brooke! I buy them and they end up buried somewhere, because I never like them enough!

    Not feeling these…phew. But who knows…I wasn’t feeling Dazzleglass and bought 4. I’m one of those people that has to touch, swatch, and try.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      lol, that’s true – I’m just like you, gotta try it myself!

  12. victoria

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    honestly i don’t like mineralized e/s because i had a hard time with the ones from the antiquitease, maybe i was doing something wrong. i tried paint pots, applying them wet, it just didn’t work on me. when i saw the first few photos of these, i thought they looked ugly but i am surprised they actually look lovely on the swatches but again, i just don’t know if they’ll stick on my lids this time.

  13. Sandy

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    MES aren’t for me. Not sure if I like the texture :(

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      I’m with ya! I’m not a fan of the texture/payoff.

  14. HeavenLeiBlu

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I can defninitely pass, LOL

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Seems like people either LOVE these or hate them!

  15. viv

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    aww it’s a shame.. they looked amazing in the pot/pan. there are still some lovely shades and colours but, so many of them can be duped easily. i think i’ll pass, but i suppose that’s a good thing for my savings right now :)

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      It does suck when you can easily dupe things!

  16. lala

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I’m getting the last one…the black and silver one…I can use them as base :)

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Maybe that’ll work out :) I’ll give ‘em a chance, but we shall see.

  17. Liya

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    They look nice, thanks Christine for the swatches, but honestly I’ve been spending like crazy on MAC lately, and with the coming collections (looking forward for StarFlash/SonicChic/OverRich) I need to be picky ;)

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Sure thing, Liya! I totally understand what you mean :) I’ll probably save my money for another summer/fall launch.

  18. Ariele

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I’m still interested in Hot Contrast. Looks like it will make a hot, albeit subtle, smoky eye :) As for the rest, not too sure. They are pretty, but nothing to say WOW about. I still want to see swatches of the blue one.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      I’m hoping these will impress me more in person, but I’ve just never been a fan of the texture.

  19. Stephanie

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I may get polar opposites. . . i don’t know i’m still dying that i didn’t get the gentle fume quad from smoke signals…i really loved the colors

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Gentle Fume! Talk about an oldie ;P

  20. Erin

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    Hmmmm, another collection I will be saving my money on.

  21. Tekoa

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I’ll probably get Hot Contrast and Odd Couple. Personally, I enjoy mineralized eyeshadows. With over a paint pot and applied wet I get wonderful colour payoff, and it sticks on.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Thanks for the tip :) I still don’t get great payoff even over a paint pot AND wet, lol.

      • Tekoa

        Tuesday, June 17, 2008

        How tragic!

  22. DaniMae

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I’m digging “hot contrast” but it looks just like a duo that I already have LOL

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Seems like Hot Contrast is a *hot* item, lol!

  23. Stacey

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    Meh… I’d like to see how the blue and green ones swatch, but these aren’t exactly exciting. Though I am actually breathing a sigh of relief!!

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Me too! I thought I’d be a little more interested, but not so much the case.

  24. Milan

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    Hmm…definitely decreased my desire for them. I think that will be good for my wallet. I’m kinda disappointed though…I really thought I would want all of these.

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Too bad, I think? Maybe a good thing for your wallet.

  25. Carrie

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I’m not really into these, but there’s a green one I might still want. We’ll see!

    • Christine

      Tuesday, June 17, 2008

      Yeah, I’m gonna have to check these out before I totally pass on them, lol.

  26. kat

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I want to check out play on plums and odd couple :D

  27. kobri

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    Wow, they aren’t what I was expecting. I haven’t used any of these before, but I’m going to go check them out. Odd Couple is taking my interest

    • Christine

      Wednesday, June 18, 2008

      They’re definitely worth a look or two :)

  28. Kelli

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    A couple of these look pretty to me. I alway buy all the mineralize e/s for some reason, but never reach for them so I will be choosy if I get any of these.

  29. Kate

    Tuesday, June 17, 2008

    I would like it more if the lighter color of Polar Opposites and the dark color of Hot Contrast were together. As they are, it’s sort of…..meh. And I don’t think I wuld buy both of them.

    • Christine

      Wednesday, June 18, 2008

      lol, Kate! Mix and match MES!

  30. claudine

    Wednesday, June 18, 2008

    i think i will get one if i still have some money left but its not a must have for me

    • Christine

      Wednesday, June 18, 2008

      I know what you mean, Claudine!

  31. Jude

    Wednesday, June 18, 2008

    I am not too interested but I am really liking Play on Plums.

    • Christine

      Wednesday, June 18, 2008

      They seem so popular, but yet so many here are not blown away. So ironic.

  32. lucyzombie

    Wednesday, June 18, 2008

    nope. definitley not feelin it. the colours to me, just don’t look anything special. definitley not anything that can’t be substituted with perm stuff. i’m kind of gratefull. neo sci fi/solar field/naughty nauticals/future earth/cool heat has eaten away at my bank account viciously. tooo viciously. so vicious that i needed a top to wear out for a posh meal one night, so i bought one, kept the tag and returned it the next day so i could buy mac. i’m a horrible human being! lollll.

    • Christine

      Wednesday, June 18, 2008

      I agree that a lot of the colors don’t look so intriguing.

  33. Gladys

    Thursday, June 19, 2008

    Love ‘hot contrast’. However, I think those e/s look better in the case.

    • Christine

      Monday, June 23, 2008

      I agree that they always look prettier in the pot than on!

    D: D:
    I are angry!
    Mac decided to release both electroflash & cool heat at the same time in the uk and so now I have to find lots of money! :(
    (sucks as I found out just after £100 shopping spree!)

    I only see two that I would love to do looks with and they are: Two to Glow and Play on Plums. I can see doing a sexy romantic look with Play on Plums(if that makes any sense) and a late summer look with Two to Glow… kinda like an autumn sunset which would be nice cause my birthday is in September!!!

    • Christine

      Thursday, July 10, 2008

      Ohh, those could be some lovely looks, Neena!
