Hey, Sailor -- It's Coming!

Hey, Sailor — It’s Coming!

I’m working through some products and their accompanying photos, swatches, and reviews tonight and am anticipating having several posts up tomorrow! I will not have everything done until Friday, because I only received half of the products I bought today (there was a major mix-up) with the other half–supposedly–arriving tomorrow. I also received several press samples pieces, but there was some overlap with the half I received so I’m missing several items but hopefully will have them tomorrow. The good news is I already purchased one of everything prior to receiving press samples, so I swatched and photographed the press samples so I can do some giveaways with the products I bought instead over the next couple of weeks 🙂

Please keep discussion on-topic, and if you have general feedback, a product review request, an off-topic question, or need technical support, please contact us!

Please help us streamline the comments' section and be more efficient: double-check the post above for more basic information like pricing, availability, and so on to make sure your question wasn't answered already. Comments alerting us to typos or small errors in the post are appreciated (!) but will typically be removed after errors are fixed (unless a response is needed).

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Phew- it’s coming! I am so grateful Christine but I was freakin out a little bit because if you go through site map on the MAC website, you can buy the Hey Sailor! products. I’m so excited now! I’m gonna watch that cute little video you posted!

OMG… That was just too much cuteness from Mellan. His nose stuck in there like, “Mom, there’s nothing in here for me! Where’s the treat?!” Adorable. Looking forward to the posts on Hey, Sailor! Thanks as always for all the effort you put into this site!

I’m completely smitten with Mellan! He’s so calm, dainty and well-mannered while investigating the contents of the bag. And from prior videos, he seems to be like that around his toys as well! In contrast, The Hairy German would be shoving his curious nose into the bag like a bull on steroids, then giving it a few hearty gnaws before tossing it around the room like a lasso!!  And look at Mellan’s long legs and the beauty spot on his ear. So gorgeous.  Mellan, come play with The Hairy German. You’d be the handsomest boys at the dog park. Well, at least until Zola taught you the joys of the mud pits….  :

I was wondering what happened to your review! I wanted to see it before I made the plunge into brokeness. Haha. I will wait to see what you think. I’ll just have to get up early and hit my nearby MAC store 🙂

Thanks, Christine! I’m looking forward to seeing your swatches and reading through your product feedback. I picked up Jaunty eyeshadow and Au Rosė lip balm tonight, but I’m still on the fence about a few other pieces from the collection. Hopefully, your swatches will help me decide! 🙂

Hahah! Not you Christine Temptalia. I still can’t wait for your swatches. ( the most accurate to me) i was just letting others know since it gets sold out fast and its released early.

@Maria, the only way I think you can find them right now is by sifting through each individual category. They’re not listed as a collection yet and the search doesn’t seem to bring them up, either.

 @Michal Ben Sason They sometimes do that in Canada too.  I remember a few collections like last years cinematic or whatever popping up a month earlier than scheduled.  I don’t mind :3  I like how MAC sometimes does that, it is a cute surprise and makes customers feels lucky being the first to get it 😀

I don’t know where I’m at with this collection.  I admire the marketing photos and absolutely love the 50’s pinup girl look.  But, on the other hand, I think I’m a bit Mac’d out at the moment.

MELLAN!!! I can totally imagine what would happen if I got that bag into the house. My cats would take turns sitting in there, and very soon it’d be all gross and covered with their fur… Maybe it’s a good idea I didn’t get it!

I think I’m a on MAC no buy till the fall really. Love the packaging but the product do nothing for me (rather get some permanent products or more Inglot pans. lol)

Wow! Surprisingly this collection came out in Mexico about 2 or 3 weeks ago! ( can’t believe it came first than in the US) I picked up “fleet fast” blush, “sail la vie” lipstick and “throw me a line” lip liner 🙂 I’m in love! And the packaging is gorgeous!!!

I am more than excited for this.  Since it was mentioned I have been counting down the days 😀  I am probably not going to buy too much because it is expensive but I reaaaalllyyyy want to get the bag <3  I lovelovelove sailor themed things and I lovelovelove neat packaging <3
 
I have to say thank your for all the hard work that is to come and I think it is super nice of you to buy some products to use in give-aways.  Not many bloggers dedicate so much time, effort and their own money to this.  Thank you for being so awesome 😀
