I have been waiting for you!!! But I know I am getting Put a Spell on you, the Chocolate Eye bag, Surprise me Lipstick ( awesome peach colour) and the teal mineral eye shadow.

Melissa Avatar

I definitely want to see your reviews first–so far, I am eyeing She-Zam dazzleglass, the mineralize blushes, and maybe $$$$ yes (I missed it on the first go-round).

Jenny Avatar

Waiting on you as well christine. The stuff looks okay but I didn’t see any major deals or anything I’m dying for. Also, did you do away with letter grades for products? Cause they really helped!

Paige Avatar

I already picked up the Alakazam eye set (which looks so gorgeous together it’s crazy) but I may go back and get the House of Mirth lip set. The lip stick and pencil alone are AMAZING even though it’s a lustre. that set is exactly what I’ve been looking for and now I may just have to go get it! I’m so glad I have access to 2 counters and a store incase this sells out quick!

Miss_M Avatar

Yes, I’m planning on buying one or two of the mini lipglasses and maybe an e/s quad. I can’t really decide on the rest yet, I have to see everything at the counter first.

Christy Avatar

Not as much as I thought I would be getting. I’m picking up the Sorceress palette, the Smokey palette, both mineral kits, and both mineralize blushes. I might get the peachy lipstick, She-Zam and an eyeshadow. The silver and gold crescents on the MES’s are apparently glitter bombs, so I find it hard to justify $19.50 for an eyeshadow and about 1/3 of it I won’t use. If they still have them available during the sale in January, I might get them.

Anitacska Avatar

Definitely all the mineralize stuff, plus dazzleglasses (in fact I’ve already managed to get 2 of them from eBay), and possibly one or two palettes. Not the bags though.

Danni Avatar

I’m only getting the exclusive kit that has Nuance mineralize blush in it. And that’s only because I adore that blush and have been patiently waiting for its re-release! Nothing else moves me, though. I’ll have to see in person.

Wilcoa Avatar

Waiting for reviews, but so far I’m only thinking of the warm palette and maybe some mini piggie when they come out, just to round out some basics to my collection.

amy Avatar

I am probably getting the two glitter pencils and at least one mineralize eyeshadow or the sorceress palette but I booked an appointment for a MAC event for next Thursday so I probably won’t get anything until then.

Nicole Avatar

I definately won’t buy a single product, because of the packaging and the reason that I bought too many products last month so I have to cut down my MAC-money.

Rebecca Avatar

We already had an early launch and I got 2 eyeshadow palates, a brush set, one of the pigment/fluid line sets and a lip set. Love them all! I think I have a makeup problem…. Sigh!

Taylor Avatar

Oh-I just left MAC on my lunch break! I got the two mineralized blushes, two palettes (warm eyes and mystic eyes) and I got one (the pinker one) of the beauty powder/blush set. I will be back tomorrow to get a brush set and another eye palette. I will be getting ALL the pigments and lipglosses on Nov. 5th! I love MAC!!!!!!

LannetKrystle Avatar

Went to Nordies and swatched the eye shadow sets. Nothing really different from MAC’s permanaent collection. So skipping those. Skipping the mineralize duos because the glitter side is chunky and difficult to work with. I might get a lipstick and the dazzleglasses, but the sets are blah. Trust me, nothing exciting.

Macaddict Avatar

Yesterday I went to one of my MAC counters to buy m/u remover wipes and they had received the collection and the MA asked me if I wanted a peek. I could not swatch the products but still. I also reserved what I wanted. ISince I don’t like palettes, I didn’t put any on hold but damn, I have to admit that the face trio palettes are way cool and tempting!…
I am going to pick up my stash tomorrow. I am getting:
– both blushes
– both eyeliners (I just ran out of Nightsky 2 days ago!) which I owned before and really liked
– 2 lipsticks (the pink ones)
– 3 e/s duos (the blue one, the burgundy one, the brown one)
– $$$ nail polish (I passed on it the last time)
– all the Dazzle glasses
– 2 of the Dazzleglass Cremes (I already have the lilac one)
And to think that I was so sure that I was done coveting MAC stuff until after Christmas!!!

Macaddict Avatar

Ooops! Wasn’t finished..
Since I own so much MAC m/u, one of the problems I run into with sets and palettes is that I usually have at least 2-3-4 of the colors/products already so it’s totally not worth it for me to buy again of what I already have for 1 or 2 colors. I also find that the quality and pigmentation of the palettes is substandard. Same for the short handle brushes; they are cute and the bags as well but I own almost all the regular size brushes and prefer to carry them around with me in a special MAC bag. Besides, their quality is lower than the regular ones too.

Roxanne Avatar

I think I’ll pass — wait, did I really say that??

I’m kind of waiting for some money to come in and when it does, I’ll probably spend it on NARS blushes, I’ve been SO eager to try them out! I’ve also just found out there is a store in my city that sells OPI and one that sells Shu Umeurheureua (can’t remember that name!). Hmmm, should use the search box to see if you’ve ever done a review on their curlers…

Jen Avatar

I picked up my stuff today. I got the smoke and mirrors and the pallette with the purples I cant remember the name. I got all four lipsticks Conjure up, all the dazzleglasses, house of mirth lip bag and the naughty noir eye bag and hocus focus.

Camellia Avatar

i really want the fun in the sun set since i own nothing from that set and it looks absolutely gorgeous (: can anyone tell me if they sell the set at nordstroms?

jenny Avatar

ive decided to skip out in this one, i dont like mineralized eyeshadows very much,
but i am looking forward to the other holiday items, such as the holiday eye palettes, which are all limited edition shades!!! finally, no sneaking in of permanent colors in the palettes. cant wait!

Brenda Avatar

I picked up the Devil May Dare warm eyes palette. I was looking at the smoke and mirrors however both the MUA and I felt i’d have dupes for all the colours in what i already own and the warm would suit my green eyes better. The green shadow in it was still really close to Sumptuous Olive, a bit brighter with more yellow, but all in all a good palette. That’s about all I will be getting. I also picked up Graphology as its now discontinued.

Adam Avatar

after style black i thaught none of the follwowing collections intrested me that much and i thaught id pass on this one and maybe just get she zam dazzleglass.
but those MES are so tempting!! i especially love midnight madness, its a miracle and blue sorcery.

Missy Avatar

I plan on getting lipsticks Total Wow & Surprise Me, I also might get Pervette too(idky). In dazzleglass I am getting Jingle Jangle & Phiff! However I don’t think I plan on wearing and layering surprise me & phiff until spring because the color reminds me of Miami lol.

Does anyone know if these colors are going to become apart of Mac’s permanent collection???, so then I can save my $$ and buy surprise me & phiff! later.

Laura Avatar

I really though I was going to skip this collection but now I’ve seen the artst looks on the US website (I’m in UK 🙁 so have to wait til November) I’m going to get midnight madness or it’s a miracle MES, probably blue sorcery because i love turquoise and was reallly disappointed by Strike a pose eyeshadow, which I thought would be more like this one looks, but will wait to see more swatches of it.
Superdupernatural blush, i just love the name
maybe one of the creamsheen glosses as I’m a pale lip fanatic at the moment

Haley Avatar

I got the ever so rich, since it was sold out with the creme sheen release..or whatever that release was, i also bought pervette and night sky! yay!

Jody Brown Avatar

I got sorceress and smoke and mirrors pallets. I also got midnight madness and its a miracle duos. I wished the pallets were a little more pigmented though.

Zoffe Avatar

I’m honestly not too excited about this collection.
I do like the teal mineralized eyeshadow (but not the silver part in it!) and the silver dazzleglass (I forget the names), but other than those, I don’t think I’ll get anything.

Coco Avatar

I like the cream sheen glasses :D, I think they would rock over some of limecrime’s new lippies which I am eargerly awaiting to recieve.
Same goes with the dazzleglasses :D!!
I love the pink nailpolish, and I would love to purchase the lighter face-kit.
I also wanted to get one of the lip sets, it’s such a pretty bag ~!!
