MAC Love That Look Collection
Launch Date: August 2009 (TBA)
Featuring sixteen limited shades with a few repromotes, Love That Look is this year’s follow up from last year’s Starflash Collection. The collection will include four Pearlglide eye liners (most likely a combination of repromotes and maybe one or two new ones) and twelve shades of eyeshadows.
The range of colors looks like we are in for some smoldering greens, plums, and maybe a bright color here and there. A few more preliminary details…
Up for debate are repromoted names like Dreammaker, Grand Entrance, and Smoke & Diamonds — but these could always be working names, too, for shades similar. Other working names include Green LD, Green Bronze, Rated R Green, Glaring Blue, Eggplant, Bella, Glam, Sparkle, and Circus. For the Pearlglide Eye Liners, I saw Rave, Fly By Blue, Black Russian, and Molasses on the table. All of these names are subject to change, and they’re only the faintest hint as to what is to come in the collection. As soon as I have more confirmed information, you’ll know be the first to know it!
According to reader Jem (who, literally, just emailed me a minute after I posted) and Debbie of Lushious Beauty, these are the names of the twelve shadows from Love That Look:
- Dreammaker
- Ego
- Fashion
- Fashion Groupie
- Glamour Check!
- Grand Entrance
- One-Off
- Rated R
- Smoke & Diamonds
- Strike a Pose
- Style Snob
- Un-basic White
I knew, together, we could solve the mysteries of the world–err, makeup world! ;)

wow this looks like a nice collection
when is is hitting stores??
Friday, May 29, 2009
July/August timeframe. I don’t have any concrete details yet, though!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Hi Christine,
Could you please recommend a dupe for MAC Bark eyeshadow since its been discontinued?
Thanks much!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I think Expresso?
Friday, May 29, 2009
Thanks! I will check out espresso at the store.
Friday, May 29, 2009
Sorry, I don’t remember what Bark looked like – it doesn’t ring a bell for me at all!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
hi Aeman.i still have a bark matte eyeshadow and its almost gone and i wish they would bring it back.but i think the closest in my opinion to bark is macs copperplate.its finish is a matte2
Friday, May 29, 2009
Åhhhhh Can’t wait!!!!!
Love all my pearlglides and thank God they are coming back cause I am running out very quickly.
Thanks for the great update. I am so excited to see that eyeshadows will be coming out.
Friday, May 29, 2009
No problem! Hopefully the new shades (or repromoted ones) will tickle your fancy, Hanna!
Friday, May 29, 2009
i have three of them and i never use them. what do you use them for?
Friday, May 29, 2009
This is exciting! I loved Starflash shadows and pearlglides!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I remember everyone was crazyyy for Starflash!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Haha yeah they were. I wasn’t at first until I tried them at a counter. The finishes were soooo nice.
Friday, May 29, 2009
starflash has great finish
wud not be a fool to miss SnD like last year…:)
thanks soo much for the info…
gimme more….some more…pics…info..super excited christine….u are the best!!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
As soon as I have anything else, you know I’ll post it :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
Oh, this sounds *very* interesting!!
Looking forward to further “leaks” about the collection!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’m hoping that I like this year’s version more than last year’s — I felt like I got some bad batches or something from last year’s Starflash!
Yes, if only someone would turn on the faucet of MAC news, right? :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
Can’t wait for these e/s colors. I missed smoke and diamonds in the last release, so hopefully it’s the same color and I can pick it up this time around.
Friday, May 29, 2009
I am hoping it’s the same, too!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yea! I missed out on Smoke & Diamonds too. Plus pearlglide liners are wonderful!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I gotta dig my pearlglide liners out, I think!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I love the starflash finish! Can’t wait for pictures. Thanks!
Friday, May 29, 2009
No prob, AA!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Thanks for the update Christine :) helpful as always :D
MAC has so many great collections coming up!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Whatever I can do to help ;)
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yay! I love the smoothness of both the starflash shadows and the pearlglide liners! I too missed out on smoke and diamonds so I hope its the same! I’m glad you get us the news so quickly…I can budget accordingly! =)
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’m hoping it’ll be the same, too. It probably is *fingers crossed*
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’m glad to here news of “repromotes”.. sometimes when you run out of an awesome LE product, it hurts to pay an arm and a leg to replace it.. darn those auction sites! :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
Oh yeah, Smoke & Diamonds is a welcome return for many, I think!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yay! Christine you totally just made my day!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Aww :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
SMOKE & DIAMONDS ?!?! yippee!!! I’ll be sure to get a back up of that one…hopefully it’s not much different from the original which I’m running out of…unless they make it magically better :P
Friday, May 29, 2009
Usually they’re not too different, especially if they repromote so quickly :) So hopefully it’ll be the same!
Friday, May 29, 2009
oh I’m also wondering if EGO (or whatever it ends up being called) would wind up being the original GO starflash e/s …if so I’m snatching that one up too! haha
Friday, May 29, 2009
The official names are now listed in this post, see the list of names :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
YES, I am all over the eyeliners! Hopefully there’ll be a couple of new ones (but I probably would buy back-ups of the old ones too)! I am an eyeliner girl!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Not sure if they’ll be any, but at least you can get your backups!
Friday, May 29, 2009
With the last Starflash collection, I got Sunset B, Lotusland (2 of my fave eyeshadows ever, gotta get backups someday) Talent Pool, Top Hat, Rave, Fly By Blue, Wolf and Bankroll and just recently got Go and Bold & Brazen. I still want Dreammaker, Glamour Check, Smoke N Diamonds and Molasses. And I’ll most likely want others…Starflash was one of my favorite collections. I really hope they have like orange, green, different pinks and purples, etc.
Friday, May 29, 2009
I definitely think we’ll see some greens in this launch!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Mmmm, gotta love the endless on-slaught of re-promotes. Smoke and Diamonds though I’ve been dying to get my hands on. Gotta find a new way to get my hands on stuff now that my MAC is closing. =(
Friday, May 29, 2009
Oh no! Your MAC is closing!?!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Sadly yes, just found out a few days ago and it’ll be closed before June 10th. They’re not even having a sale on anything, they’re just going to shut it down because our Macy’s is moving to another place in our mall and it’s going to be a mini-Macy’s instead of a full-sized one. Royally sucks because I’m completely broke and it was the only MAC for a long way, the closest 2 are both a couple hundred miles in each direction. -_-’
Friday, May 29, 2009
Wow, that really sucks :(
Sunday, May 31, 2009
This is such sad news. Thank god for online ordering & it seems lately they’ve been doing tons of free shipping codes w/ no order minimum so to me, that’s like shopping at the store without the hassle of parking & gas. But i know not being able to swatch stuff is the biggest loss. Thank god for Christine & Temptalia when it comes to that right!?! Hopefully they will be smart enough to open a new one in your area soon.
Friday, May 29, 2009
ahhhhhhhhhhhhh! im totally gonna go broke…imma swatch everything wen it comes out in the store and im pretty sure that imma love all the eyeshadows. damn mac for making me go broke lol
Friday, May 29, 2009
Uh oh! Better start saving up, Aramis!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yay! I hope Smoke & Diamonds gets re-promoted for sure. I passed on it last time. :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yay!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’m really looking forward to this collection. I missed Starflash last year due to illness and I really want to try some new MAC eyeshadows :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
I hope you get a chance to check this one out then, Miss M!
Friday, May 29, 2009
12 eyeshadows to be released and/or re-promoted all at one time. That in and of itself is exciting. Thanks Christine for the news!
Friday, May 29, 2009
No prob, Nicole! Lots of new ones to play with for sure.
Friday, May 29, 2009
i got all the starflash e.s frm last year, i even got smoke and diamonds on ebay and paid 35 dollars for it – damn it, i wish id know they were repromiting it!
i want all the 8 LE new colors: Ego ,Fashion ,Fashion Groupie ,One-Off
,Rated R ,Strike a Pose ,Style Snob ,Un-basic White .
though i think they couldve come up with some better names on some of them!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Oh no! Hopefully you’ll be able to get the new ones you want and not have to go pay eBay prices!
Friday, May 29, 2009
YES!! I will be able to have smoke and diamonds again! I am totally kicking myself for selling it when I had it, so glad it’s a re-promote!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Aww! I’m glad you’ll be able to get it again, Haley!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I love Starflash eyeshadows…can’t wait for colour descriptions on the new shades!
Friday, May 29, 2009
That makes two of us!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Thanks so much christine. You never let us down when it comes to getting info out to us first :)
I was this close to getting some starflash shadows from a website selling older mac products. Im SO glad i waited xx
Friday, May 29, 2009
Debbie helped :)
Soon you’ll be able to get them yourself!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Oh Yay! Starflash was probably my fave collection last year. I missed out on Smoke and Diamonds so I’m super excited. and more pearlglides! WOOHOO!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Yay for you, Dawn!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
thanks so much for the info! i cant wait, im really hoping they come out with an emerald green e/s.. like Humid, except less forest-y and more teal – like mystery kohl in e/s form!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Sure thing, Ali :D
Friday, May 29, 2009
Great to see that everyone is happy with this news!! I’m kind of proud that I could be a part of this scoop! :D
Friday, May 29, 2009
Thanks again, Debbie!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
You have no idea how excited I am about this collection, oh my god!!
I hope those 3 eyeshadows are real repromotes, not just working names with similar colors, please…
Friday, May 29, 2009
Can’t wait for smoke and diamonds to return!!!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Sounds like you aren’t the only one :)
Friday, May 29, 2009
ooo I can’t wait for this!
Friday, May 29, 2009
:)
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’ll be getting another S&D for sure…and I love Dreammaker. Glamour Check is really pretty too. Looks like they brought back the more neutral-ish Starflash ones. Thanks for the info Christine!
Friday, May 29, 2009
No prob, Elle!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I’m sad Top Hat isn’t coming back — it looked great with Smoke and Diamonds! I’m anxious to see the new releases!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Aww! Is it a color you use often, Michelle?
Friday, May 29, 2009
are there going to be any pictures up of the eye shadows?
Friday, May 29, 2009
When/if I get them, I’ll be happy to post them!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Starflash=Best. Shadow finish. Ever.
I already have Smoke & Diamonds, but I wouldn’t mind a backup. I use it all the time.
Saturday, May 30, 2009
What do you usually use Smoke & Diamonds with, Deb?
Friday, May 29, 2009
Thank you MAC, for saving me money. I am a matte hater…and I have to say, Starflash ranks WAY below as far as textures. I tried most of them, and hated them all. Looks like this fall I’ll be able to get some Glossimers.
Saturday, May 30, 2009
I found Starflash’s texture to be nice WHEN it worked, but I felt it was inconsistent!
Friday, May 29, 2009
DIES!
I need more Smoke and Diamonds…i hit pan on my backup.
HOPEFULLY it’s the same=D
Saturday, May 30, 2009
WOW!! What do you wear Smoke & Diamonds with, Christina? Share some fab combos!
Friday, May 29, 2009
I got the last talent pool shadow they had today =D and im really loving the finish on it .. I cant wait to try out smoke and diamonds !
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Very nice score, Leila!
Friday, May 29, 2009
Are there any pictures of what this collection might look like or similar to? I am dying to know what some of these colors look like.
Saturday, May 30, 2009
No, not yet, sorry!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
I’m so glad that Rave will be released :) I couldn’t buy it because it was sold out
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Yay for you, Nico :D
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Dreamaker, grand entrance, and smoke& diamond are some of my fav Les! I searched high and low to find mine before. I recommend everyone get all 3 repromtes! GE as highlighter S&D with astin taupe or with print. This collection looks promising as I am an eyeshadowaddict!! Xox Liz
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Glad you were able to get yours, though!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
i’m intrigued by the un-basic white…
i’m pretty happy with the go! shadow from last years collection, but for some reason i’ve barely worn the mink & sable…
i’m never sure what to pair it with….
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Really? I find Mink & Sable like Sumptuous Olive, so you might want to check out my 8 Ways to Wear Sumptuous Olive post :)
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Finally some greens!!! There has not been a single green so far this year.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Wow, that’s incredible to note, Rita!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Wow thanks for the information, this site is always so helpful!! I’ll be done with my second Molasses by then and I wasn’t sure what I would do! And I never tried Starflash so I’m excited!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Always happy to help, Kate! :)
Saturday, May 30, 2009
i sure hope they make the starflash e/s permenent in the mac line, just b.c of their amazing finesh! u know like what they did with the matte 2.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Except most of Matte2 has been discontinued now, LOL!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
I ordered two of the Starflash e/s today in Bold & Brazen and Go since I want to try them out before this collection comes out. I cannot believe that I didn’t buy any Starflash eyeshadows last year and waited until that last minute. I’m so excited that I’m going to get all 12 of the eyeshadows! Also, there is supposed to be 3 eyeshadow quads, 4 lipsticks and 4 lipglasses in this collection.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
In this collection or a later one, Jacquelyn?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
In a later collection but I don’t know the name of the collection yet. Crest the Wave, Haunting and Violet Trance are going to be a single e/s soon!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
What exactly is Starflash finish? I never tried it out and I only started buying/using eyeshadows this year. :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
It’s a separate finish from the others (it really is its own finish!). It’s kind of like a mix of frost and veluxe pearl, I guess. I still much prefer veluxe pearls myself!
Saturday, May 30, 2009
4 liners doesn’t seem much for a collection! I will be crossing my fingers in anticipation of new pearlglide colours! :D
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m thinking they go alongside Starflash, so they’re not the stars of the collection, and that would explain why there aren’t a ton.
Saturday, May 30, 2009
Perrrrfect! I’m getting low on Grand Entrance … I <3 that one!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Awesome, Bridget!
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Yay for Debbie hihi!
