LOVE the packaging for these, will probably pick up some of the lip ones!

Is it just me or does the one of the Metallic Pigment sets look exactly like the purpley one we saw from Surf Baby?

Rosa Napoleon Avatar

Yes it does…I thougt of that the instant I saw pictures. I have never tried MAC curshed metal pigments before are they anything like MAC regular pigments.

I have heard to are harder to work with and very messy.

Lark Avatar

Eye of the beholder. I find them much better! They’re like pigments used to be with lots of sticky already in them. No Urban Mythical Mixing Medium issues- if you really need mixing medium why isn’t it in the stores?
I love Crush Metals, only thing I see exciting here. My MAC Holiday is looking like the Pro Pans I want to round out my es collection … Maybe some full size Dazzleglass in the colors I use up.

I’m disappointed.

Wow, I’m loving everything here – which I’m surprised about. I’m supposed to be on a makeup buying strike. Let’s see how long this lasts LOL

I was wondering what the holiday collection would look like this year! I like that they’ve included mini Dazzleglasses and Cremesheens, but I’ll probably just get one of the Crushed Metallic Pigment sets. 🙂

Alex Avatar

Wow, I’m actually kind of relieved that there are no new mini pigment sets I’m going to “need” for my collection, and that I’ll be skipping these pigment sets. Since the nail polish, Coral and Neutral lip sets are singing my name! And that’s a good $100.00 right there! XD I love Bare Necessity and now I have a good excuse to replace the one I used up! =D

It’s cool that they’re doing Dazzleglasses and Cremesheen glasses this year, but I’m curious how much product they’ll contain. The regular size ones are already mini…

Briar Avatar

I feel that M.A.C has failed us this year. I would much prefer 5 lipglasses to two cremesheens and a dazzleglass or vice versa.

And who thought bringing back the crushed metallic pigment stacks was a good idea? Many people had issues with theirs from Surf Baby. And the colors aren’t even nice.

And only three nail lacquers? Puh-lease..

So getting the mini pink lip gloss set! love the fact that they come with cremesheen glasses and dazzleglasses I love both those finishes more that lipglasses

Lark Avatar

Oooohh! Does MAC think we’re idiots?
I have been seen swatted. With Spring Color Forecast Stacked Two and Summer Stash stack from this year in hand and I was right! The two warm stax have ONE new color between them. A red/ orange/ saffron, very pretty but the thing is, if you love love stax and buy them the repeat is no fun!
If you never bothered with them grab all. Great stuff.

So the blue is iridescent Blue Storm pigment, purple/ blue duochrome and lovely! I could tell there were no dupes in the rest and at the rate I blow through silver pigment So What? But when MAC Holiday only offers me a lipstick and one pigment stack it’s like coal in my stocking. 🙁
Give that purple a rest MAC? How about vivid chartreuse? Turquoise and periwinkle? You loved the four top half jars of pigment when I posted it at Spectra; puleeze? New colors? Or bring back Stacked I ?

I bought the pigments and went home and looked for the stacked 1! From a previous collction and found that its very very simular to light violet and grape. The actual grape pigment is different from the grape crush meta pigment in this collection but I would say if ure buying the purple sacks for this certain colors and you have stacked 1! U should skip it. Just a thought.
