I’m dead!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I second that emotion, lol.
Green Bronze sounds interesting.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
That one has my name on it for sure!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Uh oh, Neeshie!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
lol!
Sunday, June 7, 2009
You can put me in the grave right next to you, this is going to hurt! My wallet that is…..
Monday, June 15, 2009
MY SENTIMENTS EXACTLY!!!!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Those eyeshadows are gorgeous! Glamour check is my favorite :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Aren’t they? Looks like a nice roundup of colors!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
These are so pretty
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Agreed!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I am loving all of those especially rated r green.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
It’ll be interesting to see if Rated R = Rated R duo by NARS.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I was JUST about to comment with that. I have the Rated R duo already but I definitely want to swatch these two by each other. Hmmm, looking a little sketchy there, MAC!
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
I totally agree – that’s what I was thinking, too. That green-yellow from NARS’ Rated R is an awesome color and I can understand MAC wanting to dupe it… but to name it the same thing? I second your boo!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I literally want everything! And the pearlglides too definitely.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Pearlglide fan? :D
Friday, June 5, 2009
Are the pearlglide eyeliners good? I’ve never tried them.
Saturday, June 6, 2009
Everyone raves about them, ha! A lot of people do seem to be fans, though :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
i need to stop coming on this website, your making poor Christine!
lol jk
wow they are coming out with really great colors!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
LOL! Sorry, Jackie ;) But at least you can join the club with the rest of us!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m so happy Smoke & Diamonds is coming back!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yayyy! Gonna get a backup, Mara?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh gosh. Definitely want some of these. And omg, Smoke & Diamonds???? *crossing fingers* I want another. :P
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yep, looks like it’s definitely gonna be a repromote for Smoke & Diamonds this fall!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Ditto Neeshie! I’m dead . . . I love ALL of those colors, and since I’ve just gotten into colorful makeup, they’re not like anything I already have. Good thing I’ve got time to save!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I hope you’re able to save up for what you want!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Great shades !! I really like Green Bronze and Grand Entrance.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I can’t wait for the green colors!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Not my kinda thing.. And doesn’t NARS have a rated r palette with the same green?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
The mac ones more yellow undertoned
Sunday, May 31, 2009
It almost looks like a combo of the two.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yeah I thought the exact same thing when I saw that name with that color. I already have the NARS one.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
They have a Rated R duo, I believe!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
a lot of must haves! =D
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Which are yours? :D
Sunday, May 31, 2009
umm if they use “Rated R Green” as the final name, I would sue them if I were Nars! they took the name AND made it almost the same color?!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
No clue, but it’s curious indeed.
Friday, June 12, 2009
I’m sure they’ll change the name- but the working name may just tell us where the inspiration came from for the color. The Nars green is really hard to wear though- I don’t know that I agree that the MAC shade is more yellow toned; Nars’ is almost a yellow-green gold. We’ll see though!
Saturday, June 13, 2009
As far as I know, Rated R is the official name now!
Sunday, June 14, 2009
That just shocks me- I guess color names must not be copyrighted, but I’m still surprised that MAC would choose that name for a color so similar. Big FAIL for someone in the R&D department maybe…
Wednesday, June 17, 2009
No idea, but they might not take the time to copyright, though in the U.S. copyright is still very much by default so long as it’s yours, unique, etc.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
OMG- need so many of these!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Which do you just gotta have, Lynn?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I don’t usually get excited for e/s releases but this one has me in anticipation!!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Wow! ;) Must be a good one, then!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I love five of them! :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Which five, Susanne?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Dreammaker!! I missed out on that one last year as it was sold out and got Grand Entrance instead. I wantttttttt
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m glad you’ll get a second chance at it, Rhian!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Wow, wow, wow! Rated R Green looks similar to Bitter in the pic. I’m not familiar with it so does anyone know what the difference is? This is incredibly exciting news & the pics just get me more pumped about it. S&D and Glamour Check = LOVE!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
It does look a bit similar to it, but I don’t know. I haven’t seen it in person, and pictures are still kind of misleading when they’re released by MAC. Hard to say this early on!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
That Glaring Blue shade looks amazing! I bet it would be pretty with Smoke and Diamonds . . .
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh yeah, good combo idea!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
OH THANK YOU GOD!! The return of Smoke & Diamonds!! At first, I thought it was a boring color, but then I saw it in person, and omg. By then it was WAAAAAAY sold out. So sad. But now I can has!!! YAY!
Also, how do they get away with calling it “Rated R Green” when it looks JUST like Nars’ green in the Rated R duo? It doesn’t really matter, because Mac is cheaper than Nars, and now I can finally buy it! LOL!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m so glad you’ll get your chance to nab it this August, Mariah!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
hmmm belle ma and circus look similar. Only circus is a tad darker…
I would choose belle ma e/s.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Looks like they are similar, but I’d say one is more brown the other lighter.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh, wow! Smoke and Diamonds is coming back out!! Yesss! I wanna get it, but I have Stila’s Lil Diamond…I wonder which is better.
But anyways, I like Eggplant, Rated R Green and Green Bronze. Glaring Blue looks interesting as well.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I haven’t seen Stila’s Lil’ Diamond, but now I am curious…!
Monday, June 1, 2009
Oh Christine, you MUST. Lil’ Diamond is gorgeous and the texture is….gorgeous, LOL. Very smooth and pigmented. But seriously, check it out, so that you can compare that to MAC’s Smoke and Diamonds.
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
LOL! I will certainly try to :D
Sunday, May 31, 2009
green bronze looks grey on my monitor…
these look interesting though! is her lipstick going to be released as well as part of this collection?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
It’s a gray green, I believe!
No lipsticks with this launch!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yay! I’m so excited for this collection. These look awesome. I love the green and yellow.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m excited to see the greens!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
oh wow, i cant wait, i think i’m going to end up getting them all! i missed all these when they were 1st released..
Sunday, May 31, 2009
At least you have a second shot, Evelyn!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
thanks xtine!! <33
Sunday, May 31, 2009
No prob, Lala!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Ooh, I’ll definitely get some of the eyeshadows, that teal one looks pretty!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Agreed! I hope it is lovely!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
WOW!!! Those images are amazing!!! All of the eyeshadows including an extra Smoke and Diamonds are going to be mine as well as Black Russian and Rave pearlglides!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Sounds like you have a huge haul coming up!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I sure do Christine! I’m actually going to purchase the entire collection!! This is the first time that I’m going to get everything! I almost got everything from the Hello Kitty collection.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Wowww!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Fashion Groupie, One-Off, Strike a Pose, and Rated R look awesome.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Agreed, Mama Laura!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
rated r looks similar to the green in the nars rated r eye shadow duo. i hope it’s more pigmented!! I WANT EVERY COLOR IN THIS COLLECTION FYI <3
Sunday, May 31, 2009
We’ll just have to wait and see how similar they are!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
The colourful eyeshadows are what attracted me to MAC in the first place hehe.
I think I will be buying a few of these :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Same here, Faheema :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Any ideas when this will be coming out cuz i’m in loveeeeee :D

Sunday, May 31, 2009
Wow!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh noes. I want everything!!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh no! :P
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh no, those liners are so disappointing! I guess I’ll be skipping this whole collection.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
How come, Alannah?
Friday, June 5, 2009
I’m not much of an eyeshadow girl, so the liners were all I was interested in… since they’re repeats (and not repeats of the ones I love), I won’t have to buy anything!
Saturday, June 6, 2009
Which were your fave pearlglide liners?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I want them all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Which are your must-haves, Kathylulu?
Sunday, May 31, 2009
YAY!!! Rave repromote!!!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yayyy!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
do these have fancy packages? i hope nott. cause i’m planning to get them in a pan form
but i’m a sucker for packagingg
i hate wht the style warrior collection did to me :(. haha
Sunday, May 31, 2009
No, it doesn’t, since these photos show them in typical MAC packaging and these are the official images. They don’t come in pan form as far as I know, though, unless they’re making these shades permanent (which I don’t know either way). The promo photo may just be for visuals.
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Not to excited but will swatch at the store and maybe ill buy!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Aw, hopefully you’ll find one or two things you like!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I have a feeling I’m going to end up buying everything when this comes out…
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Better start saving, Niknik!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Um… OMG!!! i want everything!!! lol
Sunday, May 31, 2009
You’re in trouble, Summer!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Yea i know i am christine! But the colors r amazing!
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
I hope they’re superrrr pigmented when we get to swatch!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Oh geez some amazing new colors…I will find money for this stuff somewhere!! I want that one-of green color..mmmm
Sunday, May 31, 2009
Good luck, Bettina :)
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I really hate to say it, but most of these new eyeshadows look like some older eyeshadows… Except with really tiny modifications. For example::
Strike A Pose strongly reminds me of Tilt; or a lighter version of Deep Truth. Grand Entrance is looking like a pinker version of Shroom; maybe even Jest? Rated R reminds me so much of Bitter it’s not even funny; or maybe even a yellow-er version of Sharp. Unbasic White is reminding me of Gesso except with what appears to be glitter? Glamour Check looks like a darker version of Cranberry to me. Finally, Ego reminds me of a slightly pinker version of Paradisco.
It’s kind of making me go all *sad face,* because I love when M.A.C. comes out with new eyeshadows, and I certainly understand that M.A.C. needs to alter some older colours in order to put out new-ish colours… But these just look so similar to the colours I mentioned earlier [Bitter, Cranberry, etc.], it really makes me question if I should go buy them if I already have something extremely similar bordering on almost exactly the same as the “new” eyeshadows.
I hate to be a Debbie Downer, especially when it comes to a new makeup collection. I’ll try to reserve as much judgment as possible until I/your readers [hopefully!] see your colour swatches, how well the pay-off is, etc. Keep up the wonderful work!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I never judge based off of MAC promo photos, because they’re never 100% accurate, and even if it looks good (or bad), it can be so very different in person, because it may swatch terribly (or beautifully), it could have subtle reflects/shimmer that’s not captured in the image, etc. I can definitely see similarities, and no doubt last year’s Starflash held some extremely similar shades, too, so I’m expecting a few close ones this year, too!
Monday, June 1, 2009
I have Shroom and Grand Entrance. They are NOTHING alike. The Starflash formula is completely different– its like butter and the color payoff if insane. GE has a peachier/frostier finish than shroom. I often use shroom as an all over base color (I’m a NC15) and I don’t think I could ever do that with GE. I’d look like a shimmer ball. I use it to highlight the inner corners of my eyes and my brow bone.
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
I agree, they are different. Of course, I didn’t have any pay off like you’re talking about with the Starflash shadows I got :(
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Before I bought Glamour Check last year I thought it reminded me of Cranberry, Sketch, Hepcat, and Twinks. After I swatched it, it only looked like Twinks. I think they could be interchangeable (although they are different finishes) but they both have a place in my e/s collection.
Wednesday, June 3, 2009
Oh yeah, Glamour Check and Twinks are definitely siblings. I agree that the textures make them a bit different, though!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I definitely want all of the eyeshadows. :D
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Awesome!
Sunday, May 31, 2009
I’m doomed!
Tuesday, June 2, 2009
Oh no ;P
