GLITTERS!!@ OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG!!

Can you tell I’m desperate for new glitters? Now I gotta pick NYC or Buffalo, NY to even get to a MAC now. T_T

Candee Sparks Avatar

They’re both Pro products but any ‘new’ glitter being promoted at a regular MAC is worthy of me totally geeking out. =P

this collection sounds cool…I wish i could get 2 mac easier. I normally order online. I think i shall b making a lot of orders in the next few months with all these cool collections. Think i’m going 2 make a list of everything i want from every collection and try to narrow it down as much as possible….IF IT IS POSSIBLE!?!? LOL

Nicole Avatar

Thank you for the information. I’m looking foreward to the quads and I believe I will buy one or two or maybe all three. We’ll see.

Stephanie Avatar

I’m not gooing to spend a lot of $$$$$$….yay!!!! i have a lot of these already! Violet Trance is a matte, it was on the pandomonium eye quad #4. i have the quad, it’s a pretty intense color. reflects copper will be nice, i already have reflects rust…it’s a nice glittery red. I have cocomotion and heritage rouge but not brash & bold, so i’ll pick that up. I don’t have crest the wave or haunting, so i’ll pick those up too. I’m pretty excited for bold colors. yay!

So, uh… repromote city, huh? Sounds like all three shadows are (CTW being from Stowaways quad, Haunting from McQueen and VT from Pandamonium quad). Both glitters are perm pro items.

Sounds like money saved over here!

Christine Avatar

Looks like it. I imagine these are just a few of many products to come (I think there’s at least 3-4 collections here), so we’ll have to wait and see. It definitely looks like Rushmetal part 3 is on its way, along with three new quads a la Cult of Cherry, and new technakohls — makes me suspect a launch just for them or some other eye product (or is this Metal-x redux? too early I think for Metal-x, though).

cmferrets Avatar

yeah it does sound like a binch of repromotes (which is good!) . i want to get haunting and violet trace. im so excited that they are bring 3 quads out (i love quads) like they did with cult of cherry, though i wiash they were repromoting spiced chocolate. i cant wait to see what colors are in each quad!

Stefanie Avatar

Hey! This is xstefanie711 from spectra. I updated that post because I forgot the ‘n’ in Violet Trance, so its not Violet Trace. Sorry my bad lol.

KatoAto Avatar

Um…High-Strung? Isn’t that a permanent lipstick? I’m pretty sure I have it…Unless they’re coming out with a new pink-silver High-Strung!

Katie Avatar

I am officially DEAD. I need all the new Technakohls, all the shadows, Brash & Bold, and the glitters. I’m so glad they are not repromoting R.Antiqued Gold or R.Very Pink again…

Aramis Avatar

i definately want some eyeliners, some pigments and some of the quads if they are in circles lol so i cant depot into my 15 eyeshadow palettes. lol

cloudburst Avatar

Are they replacing the old Technakohl liners? Or are these just new additions? I hope they aren’t Dc-ing some of the old colours!

Vix Avatar

I’m an eyeshadow fiend so I am SO looking forward to the new ‘shadows and the quads. Hoping we get everything here in the UK and nothing’s left out =]]

Veronica Avatar

OMG! I love the sound of this. The Fall with quads MAC collections have been my favorites every single year! I cannot wait to see this one, and from the sound of it, I’d better start saving! Thank you so much for bringing us the info.

Skintone quad sounds like a must have and the blushes sound really nice as well. I predict sell outs!
