aww, i kinda think everything except that bright blue nail polish is a bit disappointing :(
i mean they’re only product photos, but nothing screams out ‘BUY ME!’

Hey Laura! I really hope these are as off as normal promo pics are, ha!

the tube thingy looks like it might be lip exfoliator/conditioner - ???

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:30:39

Yep, that’s what I’m thinking. It fits with the whole Volcanic Ash Exfoliator, LOL.

wow…I’m really disappointed…the colours are all very very warm! usually MAC has a good balance of warm and cool colours, but this collection is obviously aimed at people who can pull off warm colours. BIG disappointment! and the container colour, orange???!! really don’t like that. Wow, MAC, what is going on?

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:31:00

It’s going to be interesting to see this one in person, and I am personally hoping that there is a substantial difference in real life, or at least when used!

Thanks for these pics Christine…I am wondering about the mystery products now. I must say I am already interested in the lipsticks, especially the hot coral one :)

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:31:24

No problem! I don’t think they’re part of the Neo Sci-Fi launch, but I don’t know what story they’d be for. I think maybe a smaller, mini-launch!

is this all there is ?? no blushes or bronzer?
idk about the orange packaging

Hi Gracee - there are going to be eyeshadows and blushes. I know Specktra.net has the list of products coming out, and I think Christine posted it here too sometime last week? (I can’t remember, LOL)

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:30:02

I think the info about what is known is that there will be eyeshadows, probably five (typical launch). It’s releasing around when C-Shock did, so I expect a similar line up in terms of types of products and numbers!

 
 
Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:31:47

Hey Gracee! There will probably be other things, like eyeshadows and blushes, etc. This is just what I saw for now!

 
 
Comment by Tina
2008-03-31 08:31:46

the lip thingy is definitely a lip exfoliator/lip conditionner, and there’s also a body exfoliator made of volcanic ash, which is suppose to be good for the skin with all the natural minerals…

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:32:03

Yeah, I wonder how much they’re going to charge for Volcanic Ash ;D

Thank you so much for these pics! I’m interested in the Yellow and Blue Nail Lacquers, and possibly the lip exfoliator, as long as it is under $15.

This collection looks okay to me.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:32:20

My pleasure, hun! :) I wonder how pigmented the yellow lacquer will be!

Hopefully swatches and real life photos will urge people to at least check it out when the date it launches comes closer.

Looks interesting! Not much of a brown lipstick kind of girl, but will most definately check it out. I wrote a post about my makeup infatuation and how it quickly grew when I stumbled upon your blog. I’ve linked you. Check it out!

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:36:04

Hey Tiffany! I’m not a brown lipstick girl either, so I’m hoping these photos are inaccurate as promo photos typically are!

I’m glad you’re feeling the packaging, Nell! A lot of people aren’t from what I’ve been hearing.

2008-03-31 09:17:05

OMG this line looks AWESOME. I seriously might buy all of the lacquers, especially that yellow one. I’m an NC27 and these colors are right up my alley. That Sci-Fu-Delity looks AMAZING. I’m actually really excited about the orange packaging. So summery.

As far as the mystery stuff…maybe it’s part of the Skinsheen collection? Maybe stuff to exfoliate and then bronze yourself?

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:37:33

I don’t think I could do a bright yellow for nails myself, but there’s definitely a buzz brewing over it :)

It could be! I’m pretty sure it’s not part of Neo Sci-Fi, but definitely the same time frame for launching I would say!

I have a Pink Grapefruit lipglass already. Do you know if this is a re-promote? Thanks. Any idea when this is coming out?

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:37:51

It is probably a re-promote :) May for this one, I believe around the end of.

No one seems to like the warm colors, but has a woman of color, I am lovin’ this! Fafi and Heatherette just weren’t made for us so this is right up my alley!

And I’m lovin’ the yellow polish!

Hi Denise, no it isn’t. This is slated for end of May, I believe!

Soft and Slow is the same name they used for a lipglass during Smoke Signals. I remembered because it was one of my faves.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:40:54

Yep! That’s true - I think it may be a repromote.

 
 
Comment by Denise
2008-03-31 09:40:49

I think that Soft and Slow is the third from the left just for future reference.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:41:20

How they’re listed in the text is how they’re shown in the photos (left to right/top to bottom).

 
 
Comment by Erin
2008-03-31 09:55:51

I think the orange is kind of cool. The black makes it a little bit extreme, and sort of haloweeny, but maybe if they used gold instead of black it’d be less severe. Either way, since when were we really in this for the packaging? If you can pull off “bronzed goddess”, this is the collection for you!

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:42:00

Some of us are into launches JUST for the packaging, but I agree, none of us are here just for packaging in general, LOL. We will make excuses just to buy if the packaging is cute though ;P

Hey Whitney! There are a good amount of people who do care about what it looks like - it doesn’t mean they won’t buy it necessarily, you know?

Oh yuck, I hate the orange containers. I like the sound of the peachy colours though and the yellow polish looks very appealing! Thanks for the info/pics.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:42:53

I hope they’re cuter in real life, which I’m sure they will be! I’ve always found that things look better in person rather than promo shots!

Lol my 4yr old brother came running in and saw the yellow & blue nailpolish and screamed “Thats for the Wiggles show!!” Ha it was cute, I needed to share.

Sunsonic n Pleasureseeker look very interresting for me!
Must b a nice color for summer!

I guess I would pick only the lippies, as my cash has gone with Heatherette lol

Comment by MariahGem
2008-03-31 10:43:38

OMG. Well, I’m not usually a fan of beige colors, but there seems to be a couple of lipglasses I might be willing to try. Sadly, that orange packaging is just the right color to make me puke. :(

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:45:47

Maybe it’ll sway you when you see it in real life? I’m hoping to be more enthused when I get to swatching!

2008-03-31 11:35:11

I LOVE this packaging. I will likely be getting all of the lip items!!! I just seriously hope their are some cheek products in this line too! This line seems like it will standout from all of the constant barrages of bronz-y, boring summer releases by the other big names.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:46:54

Awesome, Annie! I’m glad this collection has your name written all over it :)

I love those beige colours and I love also the lip conditioner! I’ve a similar product (by Kenzo) and it is very useful!

I don’t think those will be part of Neo Sci-Fi - probably another smaller skincare launch during the same time, though.

 
 
Comment by Aprilrobin

I actually love the orange packaging because orange is one of my favorite colors, however, the colors of the lip glasses just do NOT seem to vibe with the orange with me. Maybe it’s just my monitor .. or the promo pics can seem rather off.

Comment by Christine
2008-03-31 14:53:23

Promo pics are definitely off, at least by MAC, so it’s not just your computer!

These colours look very warm and very interesting. Some folks are complaining that the colours are too warm but it looks like MAC is bringing out a warm line and a cool line for the summer. Love the orange and black packaging.

That’s true - Naughty Nauticals is pretty cool compared to most launches!

Comment by Kaye

I think this collections is targeted for us WOC (women of color), who can pull off orange and brown lipcolors, that is probably why there is no eyeshadows to go with it, because it is a small collection.

I am definitely looking forward to it. I will buy at least 3 l/s just from this picture

Comment by Christine

Hey Kaye! There are eyeshadows to come, they just don’t have pictures of them out yet!
