Half wild is GORGEOUS. I usually stcik to neutrals when it comes to eye, but I cant wait for swatches!
Seriously?! Some are sold out already gosh Mac. I was hoping they would bring the out of stock fluidline back. How much do they make for things to run out so fast It's getting silly now.
Wow! This collection is already online! I don't know if it's because I'm a MAC Pro member or what lol
Dear Christine, I was just wondering since the release date is the 15th, I heard that mac pro stores release these collections a week before department stores so do you think it will be out before the 15th? Thank you
When will you post swatches of these LE paint pots? I love the promo pics but it's sometimes a hit or miss with frosts. Thanks so much. - Mabeline
are mac not giving samples on this collection Christine?? is that odd i thought you always got some products from each and every collection.... thats a BIG mistake on their behalf because you are my enabler!!! :)
I don't get any notification if/when samples are sent. Just six months ago, MAC would send samples, but they would arrive 2-3 weeks after the collection debuted. It is not unusual to not receive samples prior to the launch date. It has only been recently that they have sent prior to the launch date.
well I am sending MAC an email stating that all my purchases are based around your website and clear concise shots :) the work you put in is truly amazing!!
these paint pots would be great bases for the style driven eyeshadows...can't wait to try most of these!!
I'm wondering when we will be seeing swatches from this collection? This is the one collection I've been really looking forward to. I have been hearing that it may be delayed due to a problem concerning the Mac x Cindy Shelton collection legal issues. Even though I don't know what one really has to do with the other plus I don't know who CindySHelton is I just want the make-up. Have you heard anything Cristine?
I don't have anything at this time. Please understand that I always swatch as soon as I can - as in I literally drop everything, do not eat, etc. until it's done. If I don't have it up, I don't have it, and I either buy it or get surprised with samples - I never know if/what is coming. MAC does not notify bloggers they've sent samples, what they've sent, and there is never a guarantee they will send. I post information as soon as I get it and always update a post if I have additional information. If it isn't in the post, I don't have it. I'm sorry, but this is all I have at this time!
I CANNOT wait for the this to come out, but the swatches will show me how much I'm going to fork over for this. The Cindy Sherman collection could leave me broke too.
I want swatches! When will we be getting swatches? It's two weeks away and I am planning on splurging on this whole collection. Also wondering when we will start to find out about the Glitter & Ice, Gareth Pugh collections as well as the other new upcoming collections that will be released????
I'm so excited for the paintpots that I'm seriously thinking of scrimping on MAC Me Over so that I can buy MORE from Posh Paradise.
OMG! I need to see swatches. I am loving everything. I want about five of the mattenes and three or four of the paintpots...I have never even used a paint pot. Is it just for the eyes or can it be used on lips & cheeks? Any idea when the swatches will start to pop up???
Hey christine do you know what shade the model in the promo pic is wearing is it potent fig or deliciously forbidden?
Paint Pots are my absolute favorite MAC product next to Fluidline. I layer them under shadow, over shadow.. LOOK at these colors!!! I'm drooling!!!
Ohhhhh, NEW MATTENES! With these plus everything I've seen from MAC for this fall, I guess I'll be looking terribly glamorous- but BROKE - by New Year's. And there's so much more between now and then! :- o
Paint Pots!!!! Yay, they are one of my fav mac products, and loving the lipsticks too. Looks like a really nice collection! Fingers-crossed :)
Oooh, I finally get to try out the mattene lipstick formula. Gonna try the Fresh Amour and Naked Bliss, that is if they look as lovely in person as they do in these photos.
Okay, seriously, MAC just needs to slow down. Their colors are waaay too much fun!! I already have 4 paint pots and don't need more but MAC somehow makes these incredible shades that just beckon me to come and play...
Paint Pots!!! Obviously I need these, but how can I afford all this? Does anyone need a kidney? I've got a couple, bin, bnib.
It's totally random but seeing this make me lemming GA ETK. Christine do you know if and when GA is coming out with cream shades in that formula?
I haven't heard anything - definitely nothing slated for the fall launch. Maybe Holiday? I believe they originally launched 3 shades during Holiday 2010.
This will definitely be a home run for MAC and definitely one of the best Fall collections, as both are very loved products that haven't had new shades released in awhile :)Now let's just hope they don't have too many duds. I'm liking the looks of Naked Bliss, Rare Exotic, and Deliciously Forbidden for the Mattenes. And I like the looks of Half-wild, Hyperviolet, Nubile, and Genuine Treasure for the paint pots. I'm so glad they're releasing purple paint pots, but I wish they had thrown in a green paint pot as well! I love the blue and yellow one as well, but I just don't see myself getting a lot of use out of them. But OMG, I just love the names of the products! As an art student that has had way too many art history classes, they remind me of Hieronymus Bosch's "Garden of Earthly Delights," although they also have a general Garden of Eden theme too.
PAINT POTS!! I want them all! Also Rain of Flowers has to be one of my all-time favorite nail polishes, so it's great that they're repromoting it!
I feel like I've waited forever for MAC to bring back mattene lipsticks! Very excited. I'm getting that brick red! I think the darker paint pots will look nice as frosts - the lighter ones may apply too frosty. Can't wait for swatches!
I nearly died when I heard they were releasing new Mattenes.. it's my favourite finish ever! I hope the formula is still the same.. <3
