MAC Give Me Liberty of London Collection
U.S. Launch Date: March 11, 2010
International Launch Date: April 2010
Edit #1: Now with a few images! :) Not everything, but at least you get an idea about the packaging — which I think looks phenomenal. They don’t look like stickers, and as long as they’re not, this may be some of the best packaging MAC has put out in awhile. (1/6/2010)
Edit #2: Now with a few MORE images — including an image of the very richly priced scarf. (1/7/2010)
The very latest in a series of famous M·A·Coll aborations, it was only a matter of time before the demure-to-daring kaleidoscopic prints of Liberty of London coloured our world with Brit wit and bohemian chic. From the unstudied, Sienna Miller style of Spitalfields Market to the grit-and-glamour of Portobello Road, the swinging London girl has always been an unstoppable M·A·C makeup force! Spring 2010 insists on the ultimate flower fusion, with M·A·C joining forces with Liberty, creating cool Britannia compacts and Lipsticks, Eye Shadows, Powder, Blush, Nail Lacquers and, of course – blushing, bountiful, quite British accessories.

Monday, December 21, 2009Oh my gosh! I’m so excited for this collection :) Just based on the name I think I might be purchasing a lot from this. Can’t wait to see product photos! Thanks for the heads up! x
FlutistEmeritus
Sunday, January 24, 2010OMG! Look at that cute packaging! I hope I have some recycles by the time this comes out. I know I’m new to this forum. But I am on a NO-BUY (except mascara which you obviously must replace regularly)from ALL makeup this year. I decided that I could never EVER use all my makeup. And since I have all the variety I could ever want, I’ve decided to investigate swapping and just giving some samples away.

Monday, December 21, 2009OMG!!!!!!!!!!! I did not see this coming!!!!!!!!!!!!! *drools*

anna
Monday, December 21, 2009this collection sounds amazing! im keeping an eye out for the beauty powders and lipsticks. bet the packaging will be adorable!
anna
Monday, December 21, 2009wait isnt summer rose a repromote? there was a bp called summer rose in the rose romance collection. if it is being repromoted, then i am getting it for sure beacuse i wanted it in rose romance but skipped it.
Christine
Monday, December 21, 2009That’s what I was thinking, but I’m not 100% sure.
Lisa
Saturday, April 24, 2010I have both of them, and I think they are different formulations. Summer Rose from the rose romance collection is really sheer(I am a NW15, and I have to apply 5 layers of the product for it to look like a pale blush)and the Summer Rose from Liberty of London is much more pigmented, and i only have to apply one layer. Love your site :)
Sasha B
Monday, December 21, 2009i hope its not just the beauty powders that have LE packaging- it sounds amazing, i’m so looking forward to this :)

ak
Thursday, December 24, 2009Christine please let me know when MAC comes out with either a Matte, Satin, or Mattene lipstick that looks like the Moxie lipstick from the Retro Matte lipstick collection that came out many years ago. It was the collection that started Ruby Woo.
Victoria
Monday, December 21, 2009Also Summer Rose BP is also a repromo from the A Rose Romance Collection, :)
Andrea

Helena

Wilcoa
Monday, December 21, 2009This sounds awesome! I’ve never heard of Liberty of London before, but it sounds up my alley with this collection! So excited to see product photos when they come out! May end up being the collection of 2010 for me :P
rowan
Monday, December 21, 2009nice collection! love how it’s released in the us before england though, haha
Dusty
Tuesday, December 22, 2009Is Peachstock a pro lipstick or a repromote? I have it… I know I have it because I actually quite like it :) It’s a VERY opaque nude, similar to Fleshpot but creamier and warmer (not as pale).
Christine
Tuesday, December 22, 2009As far as I know, it’s PRO!
Dusty
Monday, December 28, 2009I’m interested to see the Dirty Plum blush. I have a thing for Plum blushes :)
Sylvie
Tuesday, December 22, 2009super super super excited for this collection. This is the only MAC collection that I think is worthwhile!
jolenz
Tuesday, December 22, 2009I am salivating over this one! Hmmm…..I’m looking forward to this collection!
CedriCeCCentriC
Tuesday, December 22, 2009There is not even a MAC counter inside Liberty’s… ok London’s MAC Pro store is just 2 streets further, but still.
Lorna
Tuesday, December 22, 2009this collection has serious potential
Judy
Wednesday, December 23, 2009OMG! Again. Damn you MAC!!! I want everything. I’m already planning on buying two of the Blooming Lovely lippies. I also want the dirty plum blush and, well, just everyting. Guess I will be broke for most of the New Year thanks to MAC…grrrrr.
Annie
Wednesday, December 23, 2009SO excited for pics from this! Viva la London hahahaha
jade
Wednesday, December 23, 2009I love the liberty’s prints, can’t wait to see the packaging for this one! Liberty doesn’t even have a MAC counter lol!
Leigh
Wednesday, December 23, 2009I’m drooling over Shell Pearl already!!!!
Judy
Thursday, December 24, 2009Question. Anyone have an idea when we will be seeing color swatches for this collection? I’m dying for this collection to be available already. I honestly don’t think I can make it until March.
Layla
Friday, December 25, 2009OH MY GOODNESS!!!! MAC what are you trying to do to us?? Love everything! Question about Blooming Lovely lipstick. It says its a Creamy greyed lilac mauve…cannot wait. Does that mean it really has some grey in it plus purple color? Need to have it now!!! I’ve been looking all over for a color like that. I thinks MAC will have to make a billion because I am planning on buying about four of everything.
Jackie
Friday, December 25, 2009Is this going to be a collection where M.A.C. changes the packaging?
Sophia
Saturday, February 27, 2010yea
Dena
Friday, December 25, 2009why does everyone care about the packaging. does it even matter? i prefer the items could care less about packaging the products. i’m wondering if mac will be coming out with more purple, mauve, lavender, lilac and orchid colors in the future?
ak
Tuesday, December 29, 2009If MAC does, then I hope they will be coming out with those colors as the more wearable Glaze finish lipsticks.
hellokitty
Wednesday, January 6, 2010it doesn’t matter but it’s nice to have different packaging something different and cute
Jennifer
Thursday, February 18, 2010I agree! Also, LE packaging means no Pro discount. Boo Hoo:(
Anna
Monday, December 28, 2009Isn’t Peachstock a PRO color? and is Dirty Plum Blush the same Drity Plum Blush that is coming out in the MAC Riveting collection? cause they have different discriptions….anywayz, I am super excited for this collection!! I’m gonna nuy most of it.
Zinnia
Tuesday, December 29, 2009OMG i cant wait
Zinnia
Tuesday, December 29, 2009love it
Stephanie
Wednesday, December 30, 2009Peachstock lipstick is a repromote
Dusty
Wednesday, December 30, 2009It’s also a PRO color – Available at macpro.com. Just so’s everyone knows: The PRO lipsticks that are currently available through MACPro are:
Violetta
Show Orchid
Full Fuchsia
Fusion Pink
Neon Orange
Sin
Full Chocolate
Red Pepper
Smoked Purple
Charred Red
Peachstock
Fleshpot
You can see color swatches here: http://www.macpro.com/templates/products/sp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY17645&PRODUCT_ID=PROD1439
These are all pretty snazzy colors. My own personal favorites: Violetta, Show Orchid, Smoked Purple and Peachstock. Close seconds are: Fusion Pink, Neon Orange and Sin.
All of those are colors that (to me) don’t look like anything else MAC makes… Colors like Charred Red and Full Chocolate are much easier to dupe.
Paloma
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Do you need some sort of special membership to buy Pro stuff? I want Show Orchid!
Christine
Wednesday, January 6, 2010You can buy from PRO stores or through the PRO #, but you just won’t get the PRO discount if you aren’t a PRO member.
ak
Friday, January 1, 2010The Dame’s Desire and Birds & Berries shadows sound hot to me. The Bough Grey shadow would look hot to me but only if it’s dark.
I want to take a look at Peachstock lipstick just to see it but I really want to see Petals & Peacocks and Blooming Lovely. I have fixation on trying on dead-looking, really cool-toned light lip colors like Blooming Lovely, even though my warm-toned skin makes it sound really wrong!
alyssa
Saturday, January 2, 2010I need to see this scarf
Sabeen
Sunday, January 3, 2010wow…i can’t wait to see this collection…
i live in london and liberty is always one of my fave shopping stops :)
the colours sound good…and i m curious about the packaging :)
sophaaay
Sunday, January 3, 2010omg this is going to do major damage to my purse
LittleVi
Sunday, January 3, 2010My wallet is not going to like this!
I’m a sucker for cute packaging. Dang.
Judy
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I have a stupid question. What is the difference between “Amplified” & “Amplified Creme” finishes? Thank you in advance.
Christine
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I really couldn’t tell you what the real differences are!
Sophia
Saturday, February 27, 2010i think that the amplified cream 1 is creamier.
Judy
Wednesday, January 6, 2010A quick peek at the packaging for this collection. Thanks to another website. I hope it works.
http://www.britishbeautyblogger.com/
I’m excited about seeing more swatches for this collection.
Enjoy fellow MAC lovers!!
Mooonlight
Wednesday, January 6, 2010ugly…..so ugly …liberty of london is no where like this so dispointed!!!!
Ally
Wednesday, January 6, 2010going broke on march 11
Paige
Wednesday, January 6, 2010These are so gorgeous!
Can’t wait to see the rest of the collection.
Might have to go off my no buy just for this!
Just get the ones I “need” now and then get the rest at a CCO.
HC
Wednesday, January 6, 2010OH
MAH
GAWD
That purple e/s is SO FREAKING PRETTY! And the packaging! I AM SO STOKED. I can’t wait to see the rest of the products!!!!!
Stephanie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010That nail lacquer looks gorgeous!
Hopefully MAC’s promopics represent the colours right for once, because that is one beautiful colour! Though I shouldn’t get my hopes up just yet, it wouldn’t be the first time I’d get excited about a colour, which then turns out looking completely different in real life.
Ah well, let’s all hope and pray! ^^
Christine
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Their newer photos are more spot on – this I say when they have a *brand new* product or packaging that they have show off, because otherwise, they just transplant or play around with the color in Photoshop (from what I can tell, I don’t know what the REAL process is) to get the “right” color rather than actually re-doing the photos.
Paloma
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I can’t wait to see the rest of this collection…I love the design!
Sass
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I’m a packaging fool so I’ll be getting many items from this collection.
Evie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010drool!
Shelby
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I want to see the scarf! It’s $100 but I might just have to get it. Totally saving up for this collection!
LRW
Thursday, January 7, 2010me too! if I get nothing else,I’d get that scarf!
Kim
Wednesday, January 6, 2010OMGGGG! This is soooo cute!
Steffi
Wednesday, January 6, 2010i want more pics, they are so cute
Debbie Yew
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I’m definitely getting peachstock..It’s by far my favorite nude!!! and it is a PRO..so, it kinda hard to get…
gaby
Wednesday, January 6, 2010oh lord i want this
Nic
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Wow! First MAC collection I’ve been interested in since Style Black – can’t wait to see this stuff IRL. Hope my crummy MAC counter actually gets the good stuff *eye-roll*.
Angelique
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Dumb question that I really ought to know: can I use my pro discount on this or no?
Christine
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I don’t have any idea, sorry!
Dusty
Wednesday, January 6, 2010i would be surprised if you couldn’t. i always thought it was pretty much only the holiday stuff that pro memebers didn’t get discounts on. suppose we’ll find out in march though :)
Jennifer
Thursday, February 18, 2010No Pro discount on LE packaging.
Melissa
Wednesday, January 6, 2010omgoodness! goodbye cash!
Melissa
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I LOVE the packaging on these and I’m hoping to get my hands on one of the scarves!
Emma
Wednesday, January 6, 2010This are realy NICE!! <3
Jenn
Wednesday, January 6, 2010My husband is going to kill me. We are moving from MD to CA in June and I’m supposed to be buying less NOT more. Damn you MAC!
Sarah M
Wednesday, January 6, 2010OMG! I think I’m in love. I really hope there are no stickers & as you’ve said, from the pictures it doesn’t look like there are any. I already have Summer Rose beauty powder and Dame’s Desire eye shadow but I want them again just for the packaging!!! Lol.
Rita
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Those pictured lippies are the ones I want! Can’t wait for this collection (either)!
Cassie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I was just wondering where you get your collection information from. Is it directly from Mac or somewhere else? Thanks for posting it! I get so excited when new collections come out!
Kate
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Must start saving, because I want the whole collection. It’s beautiful!
Angela
Wednesday, January 6, 2010OMG I want it all! But especially the l/s Ever Hip, the powder in summer rose, and of course a mu bag…And I’m no MAC fan either…
lunatwinkle
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Love love love the packaging!
Kaydence
Wednesday, January 6, 2010LOVING IT!!!! I wish it was coming out earlier than March 11th. I need it now. When can we expect to see more of these items/colors? Also, I always found MAC colors online to be near perfect when I receive them via mail. There product colors online are true to color I’ve found. I’ve never had a product showing one color online and arriving looking different. MAC is one of the only brands in my opinion that are true to color when you see them.
Arianne
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Shell Pearl sounds like a great cheek highlighter! I am definitely looking forward to this collection. The recent collections (thankfully) haven’t been exciting in person.
Rachel
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Cool! I’m loving the packaging..finally something original coming out! I’m all over the beauty powders, b/c I always love the formula..and the Cremesheen and Amplified l/s. Can’t wait to see this one in person!
Sophia
Saturday, February 27, 2010what r bp’s for?
Christine
Sunday, February 28, 2010Highlighting or blush usually!
Lynn
Wednesday, January 6, 2010OMG- need everything!!!!!!!
sophaaay
Wednesday, January 6, 2010i was expected better looking packaging from this collection but some of the eyeshadows lipsticks and powders sound nice. wont be spending as much as i thaught i would
Kushani
Wednesday, January 6, 2010LAMMMEEEE i was just thinking about taking a break from mac and then they come out ot with this NOOOOOO!!
shontay
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Wow, the packaging is gorgeous. I’d be tempted to by everything just for that alone!
Brittney
Wednesday, January 6, 2010I can’t wait!! :)
Crystal
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Oh man, I think I need everything.
Dbb
Wednesday, January 6, 2010wow! so many comments already. can’t wait to see these collection.

FAN
Wednesday, January 6, 2010is anybody know if mac will have 25% sale like last year????
Sophia
Saturday, February 27, 2010when did they have 25% sale and why?
Nicci
Wednesday, January 6, 2010First MAC collection I am interested in. The packaging is so pretty, love the birds!
Annie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010*sharp intake of breath* Ohh… my god… packaging is SOOOO beautiful!
Hope the eyeshadows have good payoff, all the colors sound great!
Nicole
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Ooooh, I am already lusting for the India Blue polish!
Sexy Sadie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010And off course no image of the greylillac lipstick that sounded interesting…
Alexis
Wednesday, January 6, 2010what pretty packaging – i am a big time sucker for cute packaging!
claudia
Wednesday, January 6, 2010Oh, my God, this was my fave spring collection just by the description but now looking at the pictures, I love the packaging ! I’ll def get the amplifieds and the e/s !! Woooooooooooo !!!
Jackie
Wednesday, January 6, 2010oh wow, this is gonna hurt my budget
Shayla
Wednesday, January 6, 2010So pretty! They don’t look like stickers to me either, since on the lipstick you can kind of see the whole “comic book look” (you know, when you can TELL it’s printed) on the one bird. Maybe I wouldn’t have gone with a bird on the packaging, but the flowers are cute!
The color descriptions sound pretty neat, too! Definitely a collection I’ll have to check out.
Christine
Wednesday, January 6, 2010That’s what I was thinking, too, Shayla! I’m hoping MAC learned their lesson from Fafi that stickers are NO GOOD ;)
kitanablade3
Wednesday, January 6, 2010uh oh…looks like I’ll be buying more MAC for the awesome packaging. *shakes fist at MAC* Darn you, I was doing so well LOL
