Round-up: MAC Moody Blooms Overview & Thoughts
MAC Moody Blooms Collection
MAC Moody Blooms Collection is set to launch online on June 19th, now moved to June 24th and will be in stores and at counters on June 26th. International readers can expect it to arrive July 2014 (call your local stores to see if they have a more definite date). There are some hits and misses in this collection; it is really an assortment of quality from my experience. I hope to buy Green Room when it launches online and review that, but that review will, at best, go up a few days after the online launch, so unfortunately, I cannot get any thoughts on that shade up beforehand.

Love Moody Bloom lipstick and Luck Green eye shadow. Thank you so much for your impeccable reviews!
My pleasure, Lily!
Deep fixation is something I am going to pick up if its available! I was actually really looking forward to the blushes but guess another time another collection.. 🙂
I hope you can get it 🙂
Oooo! I love the Report Card feature. Please keep that around.
Happy it helped!
Yes, love the grade/scoring for each one. Makes my decision making easier! 🙂
Yes the report card is a GREAT feature.
Black Ivy, both blushes (Bred for Beauty, Worldly Wealth) and Hidden Motive for me. Smaller haul than I expected. Too bad the lip products were mediocre! 🙁
More money for next time! Since there’s always a next time with MAC 😉
I’m skipping this entire collection. Pretty but I feel for Alluring Aquatics and Pedro Lourenco. Too much in too little time. But it does seem to work well for MAC so I’m not complaining (just MAC-ed out).
At least there were some hits 🙂
I love round-ups! They are so useful while shopping or writing a whishlist! And I also love that now you put marks next to the link of the products, thank you Christine for all you work!
Thank you, Marta! 😀
The only things I really liked didn’t do to well. Good thing there are some close dupes.
Awww! Thank goodness for dupes indeed!
Deep fixation, black ivy and Moody blooms SS for me!! I love the round ups Christine. My go to reference till the collection launches! 🙂
Glad to know they are helpful 🙂 Thank you!
My wallet is safe, phew 😉
Thanks for the thorough reviews!
My pleasure, Liesbeth!
Hi Christine! Just wondering if Black Ivy got bumped u the rating scale. It says here A but the earlier report says A-.
Transcribed it wrong, sorry!
Lovely and radiantly orchid 🙂
When will we tire of orchid, you think?
I, personally, never will, though I’ve been tired of rancid radiant purple since before this… sooo if those stop, NEVER! 😉 otherwise, I’m guessing the companies stop for 2015. (Just a hunch) 😀
Every time I think I’ve gone off MAC this happens!
I want Bred for Beauty, Wordly Wealth, Copperthorn, Gwi-Yo-Mi, Moody Bloom and Phosphorescent. :3
Happy hauling!
Did the online launch get pushed back?
Hi Nikki,
MAC just sent me an email about an hour ago that the online launch date has been moved to the 24th.
Thanks for the info!
still not available this a.m. 6/25 🙁
I’ve been checking the site all day and nothing has been posted yet… I wonder what their deal is with this collection?
No idea!
Do you know why it’s still not online?
Nope! You’d have to contact MAC!
Moody Blooms still not online. what’s going on? Any ideas?
No idea! Nordstrom has had it up since Monday.
