MAC COSMETICS | Metal Urge
November 2008
As suspected, Metal Urge will anniversarize last year’s Metal-x launch, but at least it is a fuller launch (it will include pigments, reflects glitters, and liquidlast liners). But on the downside, most of those are repromotes or permament (at PRO). We see a new pigment called Spiritualize, as well as plenty of new Metal-x shadows, and Molten Sol liquidlast liner makes a reappearance. I have heard very few raves on the metal-x formula, so I wonder if a) they improved it; b) we are insane, and the rest of consumers loved them…
Get details on this year’s Metal-X shadows… plus pigments, glitters, and liquidlast liners!

I think I need Metalblu and Inkspill. But it’s not as gorgeous as I was expecting from the main photo.

Inkspill is gorgeous :)

the shape of the shadow is pretty, but with the cream formula that doesn’t matter so much, lol. I don’t see myself lusting after anything in this collection ( and good thing, because all the others are already making my credit card sweat!)
Saturday, September 20, 2008
I’m not a huge fan – they’re not bad, but I don’t reach for them often. :/
Friday, September 19, 2008
eh not too impressed :( Dont really see anything I can’t live without. But then again, I dont think I got anything from Metal X last year either.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Makes sense. They were so-so, but nothing amazing!
Friday, September 19, 2008
I liked the Metal X collection – so I can see myself picking up a few of these, probably Material Gold, Verdigris and Gilded Ash. The Spiritualized pigment sounds good too. Exactly what I needed to get through today!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Oh, I’m glad you did, Cloudburst :D
Friday, September 19, 2008
I loooved the Metal X collection. I’m one of the few that found it to be a great eyeshadow base and I managed to get it to never crease. Needless to say, I will be picking up more again this year.
Friday, September 19, 2008
Care to share how you did that? :-)
Saturday, September 20, 2008
You’re so lucky, Morgan!
Friday, September 19, 2008
I know they plan releases like a year and a half in advance… it could be reason C: They didn’t know it was going to go so terribly. :)
Saturday, September 20, 2008
That’s true. I have no idea what their production schedule is like, though. But it seems like we have a few fans so maybe we’re the crazy ones :)
Friday, September 19, 2008
Same here, I really like the 3 Metal-Xs I have and will def. be getting some more.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Which ones catch your eye, Carrie?
Friday, September 19, 2008
I think I’ll take a look at it comes out. Till then, I’m not wow-ed. Though I must say I practically never am by seeing stuff in a jar. Swatches, and looking at myself are the key to my heart =]
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Same with me, Alma :)
Friday, September 19, 2008
Totally uninteresting in my case.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Sounds like people either love ‘em or hate ‘em.
Friday, September 19, 2008
I’m intrigued by Spiritualize, but that’s it : (
Saturday, September 20, 2008
I’m intrigued by that one, too, Laney!
Friday, September 19, 2008
I’m more of a lippie girl, so not too intrigued by a lot of eye products. Although, a few of the Brushed Metal-X shadows looks interesting. I’ll have to check them out in person….
Saturday, September 20, 2008
I’ll have to wait to see how they look in person, too.
Friday, September 19, 2008
Yeah, I’ll check out the shadows, but my other Metal-X ones are way hard to apply and they usually crease on me. I have all of the liquid last liners already, but I def. want the new Spiritualize pigment!!!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Mine sit around in a plastic container away from sight, LOL.
Friday, September 19, 2008
grabbing cocomotion!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Good call!
Friday, September 19, 2008
I might be interested in some of the pigments, but the this is the weirdest thing — last night I had a dream that someone gave me a peanut butter jar full of Reflects Blackened Red glitter — fate? I think so!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
LOL, how crazy, Ashley!
Friday, September 19, 2008
OH Wow. These look pretty. Gilded Ash and Verdigris sound pretty. I missed out on Metalblu last time so I have another chance. Can’t wait to see swatches of these!
FYI…I love Cocomotion pigment and Molten Sol. Those are great colors if you like golds!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
They do sound pretty!
Molten Sol is gorgeous for sure.
Friday, September 19, 2008
OMG! they are all so pretty! i can’t wait for them to come out!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Glad this is up your alley, Danielle!
Friday, September 19, 2008
OMG!
Why MAC allways do that????
It’s just too pretty!
I can’t wait….. I NEED ALL OF THAT F*CKING STUFF!!!!!
Saturday, September 20, 2008
LOL, awww, Aitana!
Friday, September 19, 2008
The Liquidlasts are a possibility, but I hate cream eyeshadows with a passion and have forbidden myself from getting into Pigments, so I will probably be pretty safe from this collection. Thank goodness.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Too bad the liquidlasts are part of the permanent line for the most part :(
Friday, September 19, 2008
I hate cream eyeshadow, so I think I’ll get
Spiritualize pigment
Reflects Very Pink glitter
Visionaire
Inkspill
and maybe Molten Sol liquidlasts
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Molten Sol is a great color to get!
Friday, September 19, 2008
they’re okay but i have oily skin so cream shadows are out. at least there’s something i can say no to finally.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
I find they are tougher to work with than the typical eyeshadow, too.
Friday, September 19, 2008
ugh…i hated the metal x collection from last year. they’re just collecting dust in my train case
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Mine too, Evo!
Friday, September 19, 2008
Last year the only one i picked up cyber it was the best. A frosty silver w silver sparkle in it. I like using it as a highlighter. These are nice to add shimmer and dimension to a flat shadow to. I deff want to snatch up a gold one this time around. I cant wait to be able to play with the rest.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Nice! Good idea to use it as a highlighter.
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Ohhhhhhhhh! It looks pretty, but i´m not ready for use the cream formula in my eyes. I would buy the Spiritualize pigment
Saturday, September 20, 2008
Spiritualize is on my list for sure.
Sunday, September 21, 2008
Here comes the green stuffs…the liners are exciting.
Sunday, September 21, 2008
I want everything with gold in it! LOL! Just curious, what name does the blue pigment have?
Tuesday, September 23, 2008
Afraid that the cream shadows will harden and flake like the ones from Metal X. I had purchased the dark purple (loved it) but, afater a few usages only, I had to toss it! Still have the silver and the gold but although not that hard, still not as creamy as when purchased. I wouln’t mind giving Gilded Ash a try… Already have Cocomotion pigments and Reflects Darkened Red. Don’t like the liquidliners, so maybe the other 3 Reflects… I’ll have to see them all in person first though.
Friday, September 26, 2008
Oh no! I haven’t used mine in so long, I have no idea if they even did that, LOL.
Sunday, October 5, 2008
Is it just me or does those colors and the packaging just look hideous? Sea shells? In weird garrish colors? I love the picture but that looks like different products to me! I guess its just not my style!
Monday, October 6, 2008
LOL.
Tuesday, November 4, 2008
Are these repromotes from last year? (or two years ago maybe?)Or are they new colors?
Thursday, November 6, 2008
I think one or two might be repromotes, otherwise they’re new.
Wednesday, November 12, 2008
Ugh is it just me or does this collection just look gross and blah? NOT INTERESTED WHATSOEVER. And I usually adore most MAC collections! At least I will save money! This collection sucks. lol.
Monday, November 17, 2008
LOL! It’s so funny… there are hardly any readers who are excited for this, so it’s so hard to understand why it’s coming out!
Wednesday, November 12, 2008
Just got back from my MAC counter and got to see a couple things! First off, Spirtualize isn’t as pigmented as I thought it would be. Its kind of a boring straight green, but I think if you layer (maybe with some golds?) it could be pretty. I also got to see and swatch Pink Platinum which was really hot! The color is similar to Pink Freeze, but a bit more blueish. I liked it alot and would use it as a highlighter. My MA said the way you work with cream based eyeshadows is to use paint pots or paints underneath in order to prevent creasing. Also, use you finger to apply the eyeshadow instead of a brush so you can grab more eyeshadow and apply more evenly (These eyeshadows tend to clump in color). Anyways, can’t wait for the 20th! Hope this helped!
