MAC Pret-a-Papier Collection for Summer 2010

MAC Pret a Papier Collection

MAC Pret-a-Papier Collection for Summer 2010

U.S. Launch Date:  April 22nd, 2010

International Launch Date:  May 2010

Craft Paper Couture – an inspired idea cut like a pattern and whipped up into a frisky little “funny face” frock. Then, strip it back to its essence for Summer 2010 for a Pret-a-Papier colour collection. It was a Project Runway challenge of sorts, with paper as the source, the instigator of ideas, the beginning of something simply, basically beautiful. Lipstick, LipGlass, Eye Shadow, Paint Pot, Chromografic Pencil, Studio Fix Lash, Impeccable Brow Pencil, Sheertone and Mineralize Blushes, and Nail Lacquer in a seamless spectrum of parchment-to-vellum beiges, with an occasional, clever colour spill, coral among the most au courant.”

dressmaker dressmaker is such a pretty color, but i'm not too sure it will suit me? im fair - medium, pink lips but brown-ish lines on the sides.. i only wear lip products to enhance my complexion, at times im just too pale, as well as cover those brown lines.. i know it was limted but i can still get it.. do you think it would suit me?

hii is there a dupe of gazette grey? i really want it but i'm too late since it's LE =[

I want every piece of this collection!

ooh i thought the packaging was going to be like in thw picture ??

omg i pre oredered a few things and im excited for the concealer pencil or whatever. its nice but wondering how it will directly apply on the face. Overall i think the collection is only okay. the grey/green shadow is super pretty.. a little different

MAC MUA's using the collection on models for a fashion segment on KTLA: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aquiiwdsHPI

I wished the packaging for this collection looks like the ones in the poster but I know it's not possible...sad....but i like some of the color though...

Christine, Will you be able to have swatches before the release date? thanks

I am ridiculously excited for gazette grey! and grey's don't even look good on me!

I am soooooooo excited for this collection....I seriously want everything!!!

Taupe and blonde impeccable brow pencils aren't repromotes they're in the mac permanent line! just bought one the other day.

I personally don't get the freak out over the coral paint pot. nonetheless I may have to get a blush

WOOOOOW i can see this being VERY popular with the nude lovers!!!!

i can't wait for swatches!!

i love the coral paint pot and the chromagraphic pencils!!

Hey Christine- I love the look of the coral paintpot, but I'm a little confused as to what I could use it for! I have bare study, which I use as a base or by itself and I love it. I'm just wondering what the point of colored paint pots are if they are primarily bases? I don't think a straight wash of coral all by itself would look so great on my NC15 skin, but it looks so gorgeous in its little glass pot. :3

You can use colored paint pots as bases, too :) You could also sheer it out for a softer color, rather than a lot of *pop.* Oh, maybe on cheeks, too!

does anyone know if memorabilia eyeshadow is similar to violet trance?

Memorabilia is a lot darker, dirtier - I wouldn't say they're similar.

i wish the packeging was like the one in the pics with the buttons.it looks gorgious and especially the lipsticks will stand out. that of course won't keep me from a couple of them!!

loving the coral paint pot and coral lip gloss!

I will def. be getting the Coral Crepe Paint Pot, Dressmaker Dressmaker lipstick, and the Gaxette Grey Eyeshadow. Everything else I will wait to see of I am interested once I see it in person.

I believe it is just black!

the coral blush, the coral lipstick, andddd the coral paint pot!! and im good(: cant wait to see these in person!

I want to get the paintpot in coral.

being a neutral and peach lover, this collection looks great :) I need those nail polishes!

OMG! I want the coral paint pot and lip glosses!

my list right now costs $208.50! lol

When are the swatches going to be posted?

:( It's going to be a hard wait. lol.

I love the lipstick colors in this collection.

I love my corals and neutrals, so this will be a nice filler until TO THE BEACH! Anywho, looking forward to swatches of the lipsticks and lipglosses from you! :)

im eyeing 3 eyeshadows & the mineralized blush im skeptical on the lipsticks and chromographic pencils, cant wait for your intake your the best at it!!

Definitely getting a lipstick or two

I love neautral colors and corals, I am going to fall in love with this collection.

Dressmaker, dressmaker lipsticks will almost definately be coming home to live with me! I love it when MAC bring out new lustre lipsticks :) Tissue weight eyeshadow also sounds very appealing to me for some reason...

Is the packaging how it is in the promo pic?

As far as I know, it is in regular black packaging.

Wheres the orangeIsh lipstick like the one on the first Picture??! Idont know if its bamboo or Tissue Weight that im sooo excited to see on my eyes =)) !! but i gotta say..this isnt my fav collection

Coral Crepe and Instant Chic sure look tempting! So does Gazette Grey!

i think i may only want the grary green e/s and maaaaybe the coral pp...

Pret-a-Papier lipglass looks awsome, can't wait to see some swatches!
