    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Yay! Ohh, perfect gift :D

      Swatches of the paint pots are up, I just missed adding it to the post.

  20. Katie

    Saturday, February 2, 2008

    Thanks for the swatches! It has killed a few of my wants which is a wonderful thing because I am dying for Heatherette. Any word on what the feedback was for FAFI? I am interested to know what other people at the PRO store thought of it. :)

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      No problem, Katie :) Nope, not much feedback, unfortunately!

  23. Tina

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Totally Amazing swatches!!! You’re so the best!!!

    Did you happen to get swatches of the paint pots?

  24. Kate

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Thank you. I can’t wait to hear about/see the paintpots (specifically Nice Vice!)

  25. nunu

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    thanks for the swatches! i want it all!!!

  26. Tonee

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Those are truly awesome colors and I can’t wait to check them out in person. I am definitely going to get most of the eye products and powders. Love the lipsticks too but I want to try them out before buying. I am very surprised and disappointed the only fluidline in this collection is Blacktrack :(

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Great, Tonee! How are you liking the quads? I want more fluidlines!

  27. Thalia

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    I can’t help but think how muted most of those paint pots look for a “vibrant” collection :S Oh well… I’m definitely lemming Boom! n/p though.

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      That’s true, a few of them are kind of subdued!

  28. Tekoa

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Rollickin IS very different from Otherworldly. Fie…FIE I say!!!

  29. Sarah

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    I was hoping Nice Vice would have been a lighter purple but I am really liking the Perky more than I thought I would!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Me too, Sarah. Perky is pretty though!

  30. lala

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Thank you xtine!!!!!! I think I will get 4 p/p 1 quad only :)

  31. carrie spooner

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    I had a chance to go into the back room at Mac and see the fafi collection, yesterday. The colors are beautiful! I think they appear vibrant but I think they will be very workable. The lippies are beautiful. Even the one with the blue is not at all over the top. The paint pots are very workable. I think McQueen was very vibrant but fafi will be versatile enough that there will be something for everyone. Don’t forgo this collection until you see it up for yourself.

    I’m so happy these swatches are up! Thank you!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Hey Carrie!

      Ohh, lucky you :D Were you able to buy anything?

  32. Bella

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    How exciting…I saw your swatches and they look amazing. I just bought half the N collection and I can’t wait until Fafi comes out. Was the collection exclusively released because u were at the MAC pro store? or did the NY store just release it early to the public? Thanks.

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Yay :D I’m glad you were able to check out the swatches. The NYC PRO launched it early, they usually launch everything a week early.

  33. Kristen

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Thanks so much Christine!! Definitely getting the quad with the brighter, pastel colors. And Strawbaby lipstick.. hopefully it will look good on me.

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      No problem, Kristen! My pleasure, really!

  34. Gina

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    You’re the best Christine! Thanks for these gorgeous swatches! I’m disappointed that the designs are stickers, but at least it will keep me from buying everything just for the packaging!!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Aww, you’re a peach, Gina!

  35. jasmine

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    how does cult fave compare to prr lipglass? thanks so much for the swatches, i initially wanted 3 paintpots and now i think ill just get 1, rollockin… and also is sugar trance comparable to oyster girl?!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Honestly I don’t know, as I don’t have Prr, sorry hun! Sugar Trance is similar, but I think it has more opalescence.

  36. gracee

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    i want rollickin in the paint pots and totally it lipglass =)

  37. Elle

    Sunday, February 3, 2008

    Wow, thanks for the swatches/review! It totally revamped my list into something I can afford! Too bad the Fafi packaging turned out to be such a disappointment with the stickers. I feel like I need to plastic wrap whatever I buy. Oh well… there’s still the Heatherette line coming up!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      No problem, Elle :) LOL, plastic wrap!

  38. TeeTee

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    The pink quad looks similar to the N collection color scheme that is out right now. That orange quad — I will have to check it out when it launches to see if I still want it, kind of has that rockstar appeal. The lipglasses and lipsticks look very pretty. Rollickin’ paint pot color looks delicious….

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      That’s true, I didn’t notice that. Shockwave was one of the stand out shadows, though not enough to buy the full quad!

  39. ariele

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    Woo! Thanks for the swatches!! The lippies look gorgeous… so do Perky, Rollickin’ and Cash Flow! Hipness blush, both nail laquers and Sassed Up! I must say, though… I am very disappointed with Nice Vice. I was really hoping for a more true purple or lavendar paint pot. Can you tell me how it compares to Artifact p/p? It definitely looks similar, just slightly more plum instead of burgundy..

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Hey Ariele!

      No problem :)

      Yeah, it is really NOT purple whatsoever really… It is darker and less red.

  40. aziajs

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    OMG!! I am so excited for this collection now. I was really iffy on it before. Now I want the Fafi Eyes 2 quad, Hipness blush, 3 paint pots, two lipsticks, and a lipgloss.

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      Yay! I’m glad it’s raised some excitement for you!

  41. aziajs

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    Christine, how true to life are the swatches above? I know that everyone’s computer is different but I am so sold on this collection from the swatches. I would be dissapointed to see that they are very different in real life.

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      I believe they are very true to life, that is my purpose in taking swatches and posting them!

      • aziajs

        Thursday, February 7, 2008

        Ummm…yeah. Ok.

  42. shar

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    Thanks for the swatches! How much does fun n sexy look like flowerplay from the strange hybrid collecion?

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      No problem, Shar! To be honest, I don’t remember Flowerplay very much, but I think they’re different in terms of texture and shimmer.

  43. Tiffany

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    Wow!!! I too signed up for the Fafi event out in San Diego, Ca. CAN’T WAIT! So jealous!

    • Christine

      Monday, February 4, 2008

      YAY! Have fun at the event, Tiffany!!

  44. naomi

    Monday, February 4, 2008

    Wow, the quads are a disappointment. But yey, I can spend on other stuff. It suxs they are only stickers. I want the blushes.

    • Christine

      Thursday, February 7, 2008

      It’s too bad the quads are a disappointment!

  45. B3AUTIFUL

    Tuesday, February 5, 2008

    I cant wait…I’ll be at belks bright and early on the 13th…I love this collection

  46. MAC_GiRL

    Tuesday, February 5, 2008

    OMG THIS IS SOO CUTE. THE COLOURS ARE AWSOME!!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 6, 2008

      I’m glad you like them, MAC Girl!

  47. elegant-one

    Wednesday, February 6, 2008

    Thanks so MUCH for the swatches! I live for them :)
    In your swatch of the lipstick Utterly Frivolous - it looks like a beautiful pink, but on ebay and MAC the product/swatch looks more like a coral red? Which is it? I’m hoping it’s more like your swatch!

    • Christine

      Wednesday, February 6, 2008

      No problem, hun, I’m happy to help! Utterly Frivolous is not at all a bright coral red, it’s more like a coral-peach, IMO.

      • elegant-one

        Wednesday, February 6, 2008

        Thanks! I really, really appreciate your time to respond.
        I was still hoping it was more of a pink…darn
        I’ll probably still get it.

        • Christine

          Wednesday, February 6, 2008

          No problem!! :) There is some pink to it, but it’s not just a plain pink, there is definitely coral/peach in it.

  48. Carol

    Friday, February 8, 2008

    Wow that’s great! I’ve been looking for more info on the Fafi collection everywhere! Thanks! I was invited to the Fafi event as well this Sunday the 10th. They say there’s going to be food and everything and an appearance by Fafi I was told. I’m super excited and they let me bring a few girlfriends. Can’t wait. Hope to meet some of you gals there!

    • Christine

      Sunday, February 10, 2008

      Awesome! I hope you have a ball at the event, Carol!

    Friday, February 8, 2008

    Oh!! Some of them r so gorgeous!! I really like those paint pots, especially CashFlow, Perky and Rollickin’. But I am such a beginner here,,can u tell me ways to use the paint pot. Thank you so much! Love u!!

    • Christine

      Sunday, February 10, 2008

      Definitely! Paint pots are great as bases, meaning you put them on first and then layer eyeshadow on top of them.

  50. esme

    Friday, February 8, 2008

    hi! is the cultfave a pinkish tone because it looks brown tanish in the website also is the pink venus eyeshadow the same as the regular pink venus eye shadow?

    • Christine

      Sunday, February 10, 2008

      Pink Venus is the same as the normal one (though I swear the texture is better, but I don’t own Pink Venus anymore, so I could be wrong). Cult Fave is definitely pink!
