MAC Cult of Cherry Official Color Story Information & Product Photos!

Posted in: By MAC Cosmetics, Fall 2008, MAC Cosmetics

Cult of Cherry

Cherry on top. Pity poor Eve, there’s a new forbidden fruit. With a smouldering eye and a plush, purple-red mouth, she’s a living, sensual pleasure. The Cult of Cherry is luscious, dramatic, undeniably eroticized. Ripened lips, Spiced Hot Chocolate eyes or Illegal Purple nails, combine to seduce with a sweet-and-shock,
way-to-go dark. Separates the bitter from the sweet. This drama just gets more delicious.

Hey Christine! Great photos, but are these not similar to the ones you had posted before? Are they indeed different? Just curious. Thanks!

Christine

Hi Roselyn,

The pictures are the same, but the information is different (because what I posted before with the high res images was translated from another language).

Roselyn

Ahh! Perfect! Thanks for clarifying.

I am so excited for this collection! Can’t wait.. can’t wait.. can’t wait!

I’m wondering how it will be to have such intense lips though.. I’ve been keeping it pretty light through the summer.

That aside.. SQUEE! ;)

Tekoa

*squees as well!*

Hi Nepenthe,

Yes, the lips are really intense, I asked! I was given a tip that you could wear it lightly or blot for a nice stain instead.

Has the release date changed? “Available September 2008 at all M·A·C locations,”
I thought this was an August release. Do we know for certain?
Thanks!

Hi Suzi,

I have heard it’s August 21st, but since it’s late, they may call it a September release. (Like Starflash is really an “August 2008″ release, though July 31st is the date.)

There’s not a ton that I want from this collection, but I have my eye maybe on the Cult of Cherry lipglass (since I don’t have any lipglass yet..surprise!)

I find I’ve focused more on MAC eyeshadows, and now that I have practically all the colors I like, I’ll have to move on to lips/cheeks and pigments :)

Betty

Thursday, July 31, 2008

i’m with you on that too….I’m like eyeshadows and pigments….i only own one lipstick and one lipgloss from mac=( haha! But i still try staying with soft colors.wanna learn to use a more darker color( just feel like if i look silly) LOL!

 

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Hi Shayla,

I’m not sure yet what I want. The mattenes are too dark for me, but the lipsticks and lipglasses sound interesting. The quads haven’t caught my attention yet either.

 
 

Erin

Thursday, July 31, 2008

I am getting the blushes, all of the quads and MAYBE a couple or a few of the lipglasses.

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Awesome, Erin :D

 
 

Danielle

Thursday, July 31, 2008

Yay I didn’t know there were going to be blushes. I will have to get those, and maybe the spice chocolate quad, plus some lipglasses! Does anybody know what comes close to Afterdusk blush from the Moonbathe collection? I am fairly new to MAC, but this blush I am sorry that I missed.

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Hi Danielle,

Gosh, Afterdusk is so pretty, and I haven’t found a great dupe for it. Maybe Plum Foolery is similar…

 
 

sophia

Thursday, July 31, 2008

am lemming the dark purple polish and the deep truth quad already!!!

 

Tekoa

Thursday, July 31, 2008

What, Nanogold is a frost now? *looks at the underside of her lustre Nanogold* If that’s true the Spiced Chocolate quad is totally mine. Still trying to justify buying the Tempting quad for Sharp…

In my city the unveiling launch is August 12th! Official launch unknown.

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Hi Tekoa,

You got me! Ohh, lucky you for the unveiling party :D

 
 

Ariele

Thursday, July 31, 2008

Yay! I am really getting excited for the CoC release… :) Now with my Starflash stuff already purchased, I can focus on CoC! I’m interested to see if they really did reformulate Nanogold into a frost from a lustre, since that’s how it was released with the N Collection. *scratches head* Regardless, I want the Spiced Chocolate & Shadowy Lady quads + 2 l/s + 3 l/g + 2 mattenes + 1 blush + 1 n/p. YIKES!

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Hi Ariele,

It would be interesting if they reforumulated it. It does seem unlikely, doesn’t it? But then again, it is in a quad, not a pot, so it could have happened!

Ok, If this actually launches in September I am SOOOOO going to have somebody get me this stuff for my birthday.

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

I believe it’s August 21st!

 
 

Tanya

Thursday, July 31, 2008

doesnt the spiced chocolate quad look kinda like the one of the take wing quad?

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

I can see why you might say that, Tanya!

 
 

Jamie

Thursday, July 31, 2008

Mmm! I’m totally getting those quads!

 

Fran

Thursday, July 31, 2008

Do you know whether it comes out in the UK also in September?! Or will we have to wait a little over here?!

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Hi Fran,

I imagine late September for UK/international…

Good thing for my bank account, I can pass on all of this :-)

 

clarissa

Thursday, July 31, 2008

wow I can’t wait. Saving up for sure! Thanks for the information.

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

No problem!

I think I’ll only get Rich and Ripe and Cult of Cherry. I might get O though.

Shayla

Thursday, July 31, 2008

what’s funny is that O is perm…haha (i have it).

 
 

DJ

Thursday, July 31, 2008

curious about the mattene shades, but other than that…not so much. Thank goodness.
(although I do love the chocolates quad and a few of the lipglasses sound great, just trying to chill out)

I can’t wait for this collection to launch! My MA at MAC did a look on me and added Sharp and I LOVE IT!!!!!! I’m all over Tempting and Spiced Chocolate quads.

Tekoa

Friday, August 1, 2008

Is Sharp like Bitter?

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

From what I can see, it definitely looks similar. I don’t like Bitter that much, BUT PRO has a green similar to Bitter with better texture/pay off (Bio Green?).

the MAC counter inside Macy’s that i hit today for Starflash and Lustre Twins said unveiling was Aug. 21. naturally, i booked an appointment to try on some looks and buy EVERYTHING!

Amanda23

Thursday, July 31, 2008

The Macy’s I went to today said the launch was Aug 21 too!

 

Christine

Friday, August 1, 2008

Nice! I believe the launch date is the 21st, though some stores are doing previews between 12th and the 30th.

 
 

Brooke

Thursday, July 31, 2008

IDK if this means anything, but I got signed up for the Cult of Cherry ‘event’ today in Mac, and its August 31st?

 

Nicole

Friday, August 1, 2008

I thought I have to buy Tempting and Swiss Cocolate quad, but I think I skip these products, because I don’t like matte and lustre finishes. And I get more and more the feeling, that the colors won’t suite me like other e/s. Maybe I go for a lipstick.

 

vinna

Friday, August 1, 2008

im liking the purple nail lacquer most i think… and maybe one of the quads

 

neysa

Friday, August 1, 2008

i cant wait my mac store is having an event for this that i signed up for

 

Sid

i wish mac made it so you can pick what you want in your quad!
there is always that one color you NEVER use! and it feels like such a waste :(

personally i would take from each quad you see in the pic the color in the bottom right corner! thed look so pretty in one quad.

Christine

Tuesday, August 12, 2008

How cool would that be?!

 
 

Paulina

Tuesday, August 12, 2008

Oh. my.god. I went to my MAC store today, just to get an empty 16 pro palette… Little did I know that they had the first shipment of Cult of Cherry today. She literally opened the packages in from of my eyes, and I was the first one to swatch the whole collection. Pre-ordered two pigments, a mattene and the Shadowy Lady quad. THIS COLLECTION IS FANTASTIC! Get it!!!

Christine

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

Ohh, very nice! You’re lucky, Paulina :)

 
 

Kristen

Wednesday, August 13, 2008

I’m really excited and really want all of it. I’ll probably just get one eyeshadow, lipstick, and lipglass though.

Also I have to say I was kind of expecting way cooler packaging. It looks like the lids on the eyeshadows are their plain clear quads. I was thinking they would’ve done something like they did with the heatherette and/or fafi packaging, and have cherries all over it. That aspect of this collection I’m a little disapointed.

Christine

Thursday, August 14, 2008

Hey Kristen! Despite how large Cult of Cherry is, MAC usually only does special packaging a few times a year (though it’s definitely more often than it used to be!).

what lipstick is the model Cult of Cherry wearing?

Christine

Monday, August 25, 2008

I believe it’s Bing!
