“Drive,” she said… and there’s no mistaking a woman on a mission to get what she wants! And in this case, that would be the ultimate in future-forward pro-longwear technology: a creamy new eyeshadow, plus lipglass that juices up gloss for six extended hours of lasting shine, lip pencil that won’t skip-and-drag, and they go for 15 hours – that’s about the time it takes to drive from Paris to Monte Carlo… plus five hours of still looking flawless for dinner.

are these permanent at all stores or just pro stores?
All stores.
Christine: This is an "off of the subject" question. I noticed that Mac relaunched their turquatic fragrance and that Dillards no longer sells turquatic. I buy tons of Mac from Dillards. So, I'm wondering if I'll ever be able to purchase turquatic at Dillards in the future... And, can you tell me if Mac still does friends and family? Thanks in advance for any input.
I think it's permanent only at stores and online.
Gonna have to check out Infinitely Likeable for sure.
already out on the aus site too - but i don't like ot but things without hearing what you think christine!
Just bought Soft Sell, it is definitely not the color you have the name paired with. It is very similar to Show Me. Just thought I would let you know. I found the whole collection today at the PRO store in Las Vegas so they have been released early if anyone is interested!
i could be wrong but the lipgloss "driven by love" swatches very close to "bold and brash" from the peacocky collection.....still love it though:)
Soft cell is not a light yellow pink, mine is a deep berry pink and not neutral at all and definately not light yellow pink. i expected a nude after reading your description its not and its an awful colour and very drying formulation, i cant return it so its off in the bin.
HEY GUYS!!! DID YOU KNOW THAT THIS COLLECTION IS ON SELLING AT SELFRIDGES IN ENGALND!!!!! i'VE JUST CHECKED THE WEBSITE HERE IS THE LINK: http://www.selfridges.com/en/Beauty/Brand-rooms/Contemporary/MAC/Whats-New/Styledriven/
HEY!!! THERE'S ALSO MATCHMASTER COLLECTION AND PRIME FOCUS COLLECTION, i KNOW THAT THESE ARE NOT LIM. EDITION BUT JUST IN CASE YOU CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE TO CHECK (OR BUY) THE PRODUCTS HERE IS THE LINK : http://www.selfridges.com/en/Beauty/Brand-rooms/Contemporary/MAC/Whats-New/?brandname=MAC
christine, the ad says creamy eyeshadows, but creamy could mean, soft and smooth, but still be a powder.... can you tell me if it a powder or cream shadow?!?!? Thanks
But then just realised it's all permanent so no need to rush! phew!
It's odd that this comes first to the UK - and I'm a bit short of cash atm so it would have been more convenient for it come later in the month! oh well :p
These colors look awesome! I heard they are soft, blendable, and gorgeous! Does anyone know if they will be available in the pro palette?
hey christine do you know when you will get your samples?
No. I do not know if I will receive any - as I never know in advance. I don't get a warning, notification, etc.
Already out on the UK Website people, as was the same with wonder woman and others the collection cam out in the UK online before the States.
Christine!! the collection is out in stores in UK and not in US!!! whats wrong? usually everything come first to US.
UK usually launches first Thursday of the month, whereas in the U.S., they launch throughout the month. I'm sorry, there's nothing I can do :(
Finally! Lip liners! We don't get a whole lot of them here at Hong Kong MAC Stores. i really need them! I can't wait to swatch those eyeshadows. Total addict. When it says "permanent" - does that mean that they are permanent at PRO stores in MAC? or does that mean they are going to be permanent to all MAC stores?
Permanent at all MAC stores. If it was permanent at PRO, it would say "Permanent at PRO."
This has just been released in the UK which i find odd. Im holding off buying anything until i see your swatches and reviews, Christine :) it looks good quality though :)
It sounds like the UK release schedule is first Thursday of the month? So if it launched online 2 days prior, that might be why... but unfortunately, still a ways to go for U.S.!
yeahh it is always first thursday, i just thought this was in october, ha! I am a bit upset its early as your reviews always save me so much money! thanks for your info :)
HM. Interesting. This has already been available at the MAC counter where I live for I think a few weeks and it's not even September yet! For once something from MAC is released earlier in Asia!
Most of these eyeshadows look just like the mega metal eyeshadows. Does it to anyone else?
Going to spend about $200 on this collection!!!
These are ALL permanent?!?! Oh, thank the Lord!! Everything in this collection is absolutely to die for, I don't know if my wallet can handle this!!
Excited about some of the Lipglass shades and eyeshadow shades and that they're Pro Longwear. Just disappointed that there are no new powder blush shades. Mac needs to come out with a Pro Longwear powder blush collection.
Looks like a really great collection. I'm ready to buy lipglasses, lipsticks and eyeshadows. Just sorry to see there are no powder blushes. I wish they would come out with a collection of Pro Longwear powder blush to compete with the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 hour blush!
Is the brush 226 included in this collection??
No.
hey christine! :) would you know when the next collection with pretty (non-permanent) packaging will be out again in mac like wonder women and venomeous villians?? x x
Gareth Pugh, holiday launche
Very nice collection but the shades don't seem too different from the Colorizations Collection. I'd be interested in reading your review concerning the formula. Also, Christine, is there a way you can review how they might work on skin that's over 50? Some formulas promise but don't deliver due to age changes in skin quality.
jonesing for hot paprika and lie low
Spectacular!!!!
ooooooo!!! loving this already and already making up my stash wishlist!!
I like how thearitical the promo photo looked... not too excited about the actual products tho...
I am not really into long wear lip products but I may pick one or two up from this collection. The eyeshadows look promising too. After seeing the promo images, I like this collection a bit more :)
jeez this is crazy huge, but im glad its permanent.
The colors are nice but nothing really new. However, I'm really eager to try the new formula! Always looking for something that will last throughout the day...especially when traveling
I have a feeling I'll be spending alot of money on MAC this fall!!!
wow, these look beautiful :) i love the pale lipglosses
Pro Longwear everything?! YES, PLEASE!!!! Hope the swatches don't disappoint.
WOOHOO! YAY for permanent!!! No need to rush out on these *phew*
Oy, did you guys notice the price jump on these??? I can imagine folks won't be happy if these don't live up to the claims!
If these eyeshadows are ANYTHING like Mega Metal shadows from Peacocky, I have a feeling I'm buying every single one. I'm STILL looking for a second Dalliance to stash and am regretting not buying a few shades when I had the chance! Can't wait for your review, Christine! (P.S. I just bought a new computer, and Temptalia looks even better on a 23" screen!)
Ooh, Pro Longwear eye shadows and Lipglasses. Cool. I'm glad this isn't another limited edition collection.
