They all look really nice on your lips 🙂
Thanks, Heather!
I need some Bing in my life! Wow, that is gorgeous!
I’d love to see it on you, Tina!
wow you do have very good taste
Thanks, Christina!
Hey Tina u got that right I have to admit thats great looking its not to loud or disracking
Bing looks incredible…if only I had the courage to wear it! Btw, I love dark lips on you! You really look so stunning wearing them…I can’t forget your gorgeous Alta Moda Look 😉
I don’t know where I’d wear it, honestly! It’s so dark.
You’ll probably think it’s too dramatic for you but Bing does look good on you.
I can’t imagine wearing it out, to be honest! I don’t know where you would wear a color this dark to!
Da bing!
I like So Scarlet the best. ♥
Me too, Kelly 🙂
Wow! Cream Cerise looks a lot like my HG 4N! Will have to get it.
Oh, nice! It might be more pigmented? Or just not as sheer. I remember the N lipsticks being really sheer on me.
I can’t wait for So Scarlet!!! but I will have to try Bing! it looks FABULOUS Christine!! You must try a look for your eyes with Bing and So Scarlett!!!
they all look yummy!! I really want Cream Cerise though.
I like it, just because it’s so un-dramatic, LOL, compared to the rest.
I love the mattene colors and swatched them at the launch party last night. I just wish I liked how the mattenes felt on my lips more! Bing and Kirsh were really the two standout shades for me when it came to these mattenes. The Cream Cerise looks so nice! I’ve never been able to pull off a nude lip like that becauase I just haven’t found the right shade. That might be worth trying….
Nice, lucky you going to the launch party 😉
Beautiful! I can’t wait to see more looks from you, Christine!
Thanks, Elle!
Bing looks really nice on you – that might be one I get just to get…but might never end up actually wearing. All of those shades look really nice!
Thanks, Heather! I really don’t know where or how to wear Bing, though, lol.
they look gorgeous, I wish I could muster the courage to wear Bing!
You and me both, Nell!
so scarlet reminds me of one of the Raquel Walsh lipsticks, Legendary Femme!!
I don’t remember that one at all, LOL! I think it was in the beginning of my MAC affair.
I really don’t know if I can pull off Bing, but I still kinda want to make sweet, sweet love to it…
So Scarlet looks faaaahbulous on you.
LOL!! I can’t pull off Bing! I feel and look ridiculous in it. Close-up lip shots never tell the full story 😉
I’ll have to pick up Cream Cerise! I’d have to say you can pull off almost any color! However, I think So Scarlet is sooooo you!
Oh, thanks, Chloe 🙂
You’ll like Creme Cerise!
Bing.
WANT.
I can’t wait to see people wear this color!
Wow those are all really pretty!
Glad you think so, Lydia!
wow! so nice!!..your undertones are what olive/beige??..it seems as though you can get a way w/ any color 🙂
Olive, I guess! Definitely not beige, though!
Cream Cerise is fantastic! I’m definitely getting it! Bing is intriguing, if not an everyday color…
I want to see others wearing Bing! I need ideas on how to wear it.
I’m still set on getting So Scarlet, Bing looks fab on you Christine. I wonder if it’ll look good on me…
Bing looks nice close-up, but it just doesn’t suit me at all when you see it full-face, LOL.
just got the cult of cherry postcard in the mail today and it says creme cerise. you were right after all!
YAY! 😀
Oh I NEED the Creme Cerise!
I think the Kirsh may end up being a winner for me too.
I can’t wait to see the other lip products in person, like Kirsch!
Eek, the first one is such an nice color 🙂 How bleedy is bing? The pic looks like it’s bleeding a bit–is this with or without lipliner? Boo for dark lipsticks :/ haha
It’s a bit bleedy. I didn’t apply it with a lip brush nor had liner – very quick, throw it on, take a photo, wipe it off and do another lipstick 😉 Normally I’d wear a liner and apply with a brush for a color this dark.
Cream Cerise is my choice! Very pretty!
You’ll like it, Aleks!
At the party my friend put on Bing with the Current liner, a dazzle glass, and a small dab of another lip gloss and it came out really nice.
Thanks for this lip combo!
and …Christine I LOVE !!!! creme cerise on you!
OMG, these are SO HOT. I love them all. They all look fantastic on you too.
Thanks, Skyler 😉 Up-close, they’re nice. From far away, Bing is a no can do for me.
Best lips on the web lol. Dangerous puckers there! I really like the first one. Do you think SO SCARLET is homage to Gone With the Wind Hmm
LOL!! You are too much, Haydee 😉
It could be. Not a bad way to honor it!
just a heads up, mac has been sending out emails for their ‘autumn winter trends’ and some of the looks feature pro items, which are currently available for purchase at the regular mac website, and they have free shipping also through the 23rd on all purchases. specifically i noticed
invisible set powder
http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/products/single_pick.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY33844
and a lip mix and colored gloss
http://www.maccosmetics.com/templates/products/single_pick.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CATEGORY33847
not sure if any of the lipsticks blushes pigs shadows or glitters are pro, because i don’t know all of the perm colors (too busy with le most of the time) but if anyone was looking for the set powder, it’s a good deal to save on shipping.
This is very true! The special features they put on the MAC website often have PRO products available for a short time!
WOW I WANT THEM ALL!!
What texture is Cream Cerise, please?? (PLEASE BE AMPLIFIED.. PLEASE BE AMPLIFIED.. PLEASE BE AMPLIFIED..)
Hm, the info I have says its a lustre, but it doesn’t feel like that to me.
All three colours look great on you! Very versatile, very wearable. Can’t wait to see the looks you’ll create with them!
Thanks, Betsy!
So. Pretty.
I think I want all three , haha. No … I n e e d them all three =o
I like creme cerise!!!
Ahh I love Bing! It looks at good as I had hoped, but I am hopeless at wearing dark lips, no matter how much I love them. I feel it is because of the tone of my skin and the fact that my lips are full and stand out enough, so I am perpetually nude-lipped. But Bing looks absolutely gorgeous on you, and I believe you and I are almost identical in skin color. Would you mind doing a look and showing Bing in relation to the rest of the face? It can be hard to determine when only the lips are shown, but from what I can see it looks amazing. I just need more convincing to take the plunge and get it!
I’m hopeless at it, too< Stephanie!! I did a look yesterday with a shot of Bing, so you can see how it looks...
How different is Bing from Diva? They look pretty close. Is it just finish? Or is Bing a little more purple than Diva? I’m focusing on this so I don’t immediately go buy one of everything as soon as this hits stores.
To be honest, I don’t own Diva and haven’t swatched it :/
Creme Cerise!I love this color.
Bing! OMGGG *drool*
Bing looks amazing, but it might just end up one of those “Just incase I ever do” colours sitting in my makeup case.
wow,very nice colors!!!!!!!
i cant wait to see my rainbow guest look here 🙂
did You get the mail, Christine?
Hey Zsofi!
I got your rainbow look – I replied yesterday, I believe. It’s going up in a week or so!
My oh my!! Give me some So Scarlet or I’ll die! 😉
Is it just me or is Cult of Cherry up on the site?!
Yep, it’s up! They usually put new collections up the Tuesday before the launch date 🙂
creme cerise is the only one i could pull off, im so pale all the darker colors pop a little ‘too’ much if you know what i mean =)
I know how you feel, LunaMoth! No worries, you aren’t alone 🙂
I really like Creme Cerise on you
Thanks, Rosie!
These are some very hot looking lipsticks the bing is hot& the rapturous mattene shades are in these would look great with what a person maybe wearing such as a dress or skirt ect in fact Im going to try out the Rapturous shade with vino lip pencil
Nice suggestions, Christina!
