Lucky Tom Eyeshadow Palette (L to R)
MAC Hello Kitty Swatches!
If you followed me on Twitter, you might have read that it happened to me again — they gave me TWO Lucky Tom palettes instead of one Lucky Tom and one Too Dolly palette. They put one on hold for me, so I’ll be picking it up tomorrow. I’m SO SO SO sorry for not having it up tonight, but I hope you’ll sit tight and wait for it tomorrow and forgive me for it all.
*EDIT* So Too Dolly features 3 shadows I already own, so I swatched them. I’m still missing Too Dolly, but now it’s not *as* bad as missing four, right?

Yogurt, Romping, Too Dolly, Stately Black

Fashion Mews, Fresh Brew, Big Bow

Strayin’, Cute Ster, Most Popular

Fun & Games, Tippy
Nice Kitty, Nice To Be Nice, Mimmy
Her Glitz, Girl Groove, Kitty Power, Glamourpuss

Pretty Baby, Tahitian Sand
Sweet Strawberry, Fast Friends, She Loves Candy

Popster, Pink Fish

Reflects Blue, Reflects Very Pink

Deep Blue Green, Milk
I have Fresh Brew and I love it! I had no idea it was from the Hello Kitty collection until I saw this! *i got into MAC the summer of 2010* And I didn't know a bunch about makeup. Awesome job!
you know ? someone on this site called taobao.com ( its kidna like chinas ebay haha ) has a store called temptalia, just curious, is that you?
Help!!! I'm stuck. Is 'Milk' a pinkish pigment like it is in the jar, or is it that pretty pearly white you swatched on your hand?
Thanks for the awesome swatches Christine! I was wondering if Pretty Baby is similar to Flower Mist Dew from Ungaro? I'm about a NC25 and was wondering which BP would be best for me. I know they're sheer but I'm a sucker for the packaging :D Thanks!
No problem, Rhian! I'd say they were similar, though this is a little "darker" but it's still very sheer :)
Ok so does anyone know when this is coming out in Australia? I have sent countless emails to mac and all I get is a confirmation that they got it but absolutely no answers and I'm just sick of it. I only got into mac this year and I've never been to a store the day a collection comes out, so I don't know if the really popular collections or most hyped (like this one seems to be) are sold out on the day. I can't just go to a mac store every day, I live over an hour away from the closest one. So does anyone know? Because I am really looking forward to this and I really don't want to miss out. I read on here that someone was going to a launch party on the 12th I think and that it would come out a week later but it hasn't. Thanks for the swatches. The more I look, the more I want basically everything!! Especially the glitter liners!!
March elle :) My earlier comment said I was invited for the launch on the 11th March. I just asked my mac counter at david jones about it and it costs $60 to attend the party (all redeemable of course) but by now I think the party invites are probably gone. The MUA told me the actual launch date is the 16th of March which is only a few weeks away!
Thanks so much for the info!! I have decided to skip on the beauty powders, I am a NC 40 (but I think I am matched incorrectly) so I dont think its gonna show up on me.
I was very much looking forward to this collection but after seeing some of your swatches I became sooo depressed lol. I love lippies but the HK lipglasses are so sheer beyond belief. Also, the eyeshadow palettes seem to be mediocre... not worth $38... they don't seem to be pigmented enough. The blushes and a couple of lipsticks are pretty though... I might skip everything else except for 3 lipsticks, 2 lipglasses and both blushes.. oh, and I also love popster TLC :D Thanks for the awesome swatches! You just saved the plastics in my wallet lol.
lol, yes, unfortunately they are definitely quite sheer :( I agree that the palettes are also not worth $38 at all. But I do like the blushes, lipsticks (a few of them), and the TLCs! And the glitter liners :)
I was invited to an Australian launch party on the 11th of March so I'm guessing it's coming out prob a week after that
These swatches look amazing! I can't wait for this collection to come out. Does anyone know when this is coming out in Australia? Or any collection, I'm still waiting to hear about BBR. Anyway, thanks for these swatches. Did you get any of the nail polishes? I want the white if its good, all the other whites I've tried have been too thick.
AH!! Why does MAC do this to us all? Cremeteam came out, and BBR... now hellokitty too. My poor wallet will be screaming at me to stop spending money. I'm waiting for hello kitty to come out so I can buy a few things from all of these collections at once. It's sooooo hard to decide, but atleast with these swatches it makes it a little easier. *sigh* I guess I should kiss half my paycheck goodbye now. lol.
Great job Christine but I am really disappointed with the beauty powders as well :( too light and not enough color..the lippies and beauty blushes look great!
Thank you Christine! :) Having read all the posts on this launch, seen all the product pictures and swatches, I now have a few favourites incl. Sweet Strawberry & She Loves Candy l/g, Strayin' & Most Popular l/s, Kitty Powerglitter liner (incidentally how does this compare with the new UD pink glitter liner?), Too Dolly e/s palette and Fun & Games beauty powder blush. Now considering that I didn't even want to get anything initially... :/
No problem, Brooke! I probably won't get a chance to for a bit, just 'cause I just did my nails with Vendetta and I'm not looking forward to removing :P
Thanks so much, Christine. I see a few lip products that I'm going to get. You are fabulous for getting these up so early. thanks again!
You're showing that last image twice in your post... I think the first time it's the wrong image?? Anyway, the swatches are beautiful and where I was unimpressed by the collection now I'm definitely wanting some stuff... AHH!
