MAC Cosmetics Grand Duos Collection for Spring 2009 Year: 2009 Launches 1/25/09January 25, 2009 MAC Cosmetics Grand Duos Collection for Spring 2009Mineralization has swept the beauty nation but MAC makes the next move with Grand Duos: Mineralize Blush that has a marbleized melange on one side, and a complimentary mono-shade on the other. Soft shimmer, super-shine pearl in a pretty tri-colour veining to enhance and glorify cheekbones, followed with the pop and dimension of solid colour shimmer without an overly frosted look. The 188 Small Duo Fibre Face Brush makes the transition magnificent. A sophisticated but simple new way to get your vital minerals!Grand DuosMoon River Blue pink mélange / Pale yellow pinkLove Rock Gold violet mélange / Bright blue pinkGrand Duo Copper pink mélange / PlumLight Over Dark Orange yellow mélange / Deep brownEarth to Earth Purple bronze mélange / Yellow brownHot Planet Copper yellow mélange / Mid-tone plumIntenso Pink gold mélange / Terracotta roseBrush188 Brush Flat topped, full circular brushMore images!

MichelleWhat are the sizes of these products? They look like the size of the mineralized duo eye shadows from last summer.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I think they are the same size as the mineralize blushes from before.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I imagine at least $18ish!
JenniferI agree. Colours look the same as the eyeshadows, except for the solid part. Think I’ll pass. Not fond of mineralize anyway. Too much fall out, not enough pay off.
shonahey love!!! try using your 239 brush quite hard and buff it in without usng too much product on it, or use it over a shade stick like beige-ing! and try doing eyes before base to tidy up fall out!!!shonamac artist uk!
Victoria MariaHi shona – i’ve heard someone say that it would be a good idea to spray the brush with Fix+ before using the minerals blushes and shadows…any comments on that???
RayannaI think there might have been a mix up with Intenso and Light over Dark they both say deep brown but I really like the picture of Intenso and it’s clearly not a deep brown but Light over Dark is.
miss annai’ll be all over this collection. the bright blue pink & the plum ones look lovely. can you hear my wallet screaming? =)
Candee SparksThese look pretty nice, it’ll beat paying the price for a blush as well as a skin finish, and both can last you like, a lifetime. I’ll be more excited once Hello Kitty FINALLY comes out. It’s going to be a very, very long 2 weeks.
Hillary🙂 your my favorite person ever.Im screwed, I want them all, and plan on getting at least 5 of them. (1 and 3 are iffyy)
LizI like the second to last one. My guess is that they’ll be the same price as the mineralize blushes…
tcchristine, do you think they are worth getting? do you think that they are really pretty pinks? too shimmery? are you getting any of them? let me know!
EmmaI think I possibly died and went to heaven. I Adore These.Any Idea if they are Matte or Shimmery???
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »They don’t look matte to me!
aninai was lucky to have a played with them for a small workshop!i love intenso, light over dark and hot planet!fantastic as eyeshadow too!
Sandythese look pretty cool. I loved the mineralized blush and will def check these out. Thanks for the preview Christine
AnitacskaI think you posted the plum one twice. But thank you very much for posting them, they are sooo pretty. I have a feeling I’ll be buying all of them (maybe except the dark brown ones). I love my mineralize products and they are sooo pretty. Aaaah. 🙂
MsEclecticThey look soo pretty ….i cant buy any (sniff sniff) coz my skin flares up with macs mineral products 🙁 oh well money saved i guess 🙂
piaThose are beautiful! i want them all:) i don’t think I know how though. A purple vein? I’m definitely clueless
im8kyouupReally nice. I just picked up 2 of the mineralized shadows from my CCO and I like them. I hope that these are just as satisfying.
Lushious BabeGreat collection for a blush addict like I am!!! I have to get them all…..but what’s new??Thanks for the great info, Christine! 😀
missbikeI haven’t done mu7ch with mineral make up but I like the solid cake sort; I got some for eyes in fantastic colors. Question- Are these baked cake minerals all purpose? I look at these and see a lovely blush- and an interesting eye as well. The other ones I’ve seen at the MAC counter tend to have that whatever you need quality too, except maybe deep purple or royal blue. Are they all the same formula in different colors?Mountain bike girl Likes to paint as the mood moves me…
SarahThese look beautiful. I’m trying not to let myself get too sucked into the attraction of LEs but I can’t help it. Lemming ahoy!
mytwocentsI LOVE THESE.This is one of MAC most unique product (skinfinish I mean). Literally it’s changing women’s faces . These skinfinish products totally change your cheek to give you a glow.Trust me people want them if they didn’t they wouldn’t come out with a whole collection around them.They look awesome! Only thing I don’t get is I don’t think many want to wear purple on their cheeks why aren’t there more browns??
cmferretsomg i am soo excited, i want to get them all. i missed out on the other minerlized blushes that were released and then when i saw this i said , nah im going to wait for this collection to come out. cant wait for this march!
Dianaomg.. i am so excited i loved the mineralized blushes and i will definitely buy like 4 of these !!!
CarolinaDoes anyone know the exact date this collection will launch?? I am so freaken excited!!! i think i’ll get at least 3 of these blushes 🙂 thank u so much for posting!!
NarsThis collection already launched in Korea a few days ago.. what a surprise! As far as I know it comes out in mid-March in North America. I picked up Love Rock and Moon River.. boy aren’t they pretty! Moon River is simply gorgeous– anyone that lays their hands on it would be lucky!
Melissado any of you girls know what the bronzy one with purple veining is called? the 3rd picture ? 🙂
on3cut3cupcak3OK, ladies I swatches ALL of these @ my local Nordstroms today (they’re currently taking pre-orders) AND BELIEVE ME, THEIR BEAUTIFUL! Unlike typical MSFs there is not much fall out, and the color payoffs are GREAT (minus 1)!! I AM DEFF GONNA PICK ALL OF THEM UP (minus 1)!! Also, i LOVE the fact that none of them were chunky like other MSFS were too! Swatch it, and see for yourself!
Shaeei think 3rd one is called earth to earth. they are released on the mac australia website so check that out.
NataliaI am so getting these this thursday, i cant wait =D. And I am totally skipping on the Sugarsweet MSF’s since they are too light and sheer for me which is sad to find out =(
