Oh yay! They’re out today! I was hoping they would be. Waiting patiently for your review 🙂 And if you picked up anything?
It’s up 🙂
yay! finally someone put up some swatches lol thank you so much!!
No problem, Brooke!
Oh man, I want all the lipsticks and I do not have that kind of money right now. 🙁
Maybe I’ll just get Flourish…
Awww 🙁 Flourish is really pretty, a lighter, pinker version of Queen’s Sin.
Thank you so much! 😀 One of my favorite MAs just called (literally like 5 minutes ago) and was like “We just got the Monogram collection!! Do you want me to put anything aside for you?” She knows I can only get to the mall like once a month at most, she’s so awesome! 😀 I had her put the Identity lip gloss on hold for me b/c your swatch makes it look so gorgeous! Thanks for always doing this for us Christina, you rock! 😀
Happy to help! 🙂
I heard that we won
Oh no, that sucks! I hope you can find it on eBay for reasonable prices.
I see the Sheerspark powders have maintained their sub-par formula! I like the look of Marque, Flourish, Identity & Posh Life.
Oh, indeed!! Still terrible 🙁 So sad.
:drools: holy smack they are pretty ,please tel me how the case fills is it metal or plastic
They feel metal to me. Only the lipsticks/lipglosses make me uncertain if they’re true metal.
thw swatches are awesome!!! i can’t wait for you to do a look using them. 🙂
Thanks, Katrina!
Ooh, the lipsticks are lovely! Thanks for filling me in on the Sheerspark powders. The photos are pretty. Glad to be warned that they don’t live up.
The Sheersparks make me so sad and frustrated. I just don’t get them at all!
yay! thanks for posting.
by the looks of these, as much as they are all pretty, the only things i am interested in purchasing are Distinguished & Identity lipglosses.
Thanks Christine!
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!
No problem! Are you getting the lipglosses?
I’ve actually stayed away from MAC for the past few weeks to contain myself from doing damage…Buuuuuuuuuuuuuut, since the Holidays are coming up…I’m looking again. I want to see the lipglosses in person so I should probably hit up my MAC counter soon. But I’m also behind because I still need to purchase some stuff from the Holiday collection 😉
Did you end up picking anything up, Michelle?
Yes but from the Holiday collection. 😛
Especially after I found out that the sets were 25%. Ahhh!
So I went with the Warm Eyes palette, which I will be using for the wedding I’m going to this weekend (yay!) and I got the cool pigments. They were sold out of the Warm Pigments at Bloomies so I go them online.
But interestingly enough, this collection was not at the MAC counter at Bloomies last week. I’m still debating between something from this line & the Chill line you posted. What I really would like is that eyeliner from the Chill collection. I do like the packaging of this collection though. Anything particular you would recommend from this line?
Monogram only came out at select MAC locations–mostly freestanding MAC stores (so not department stores like Nordstrom, Macys, etc.).
From Chill, I don’t recommend anything except the liner, because it is worth checking out. The shadows are OK, but I don’t think you’ll miss out if you pass on any of them–same with the lipglasses.
