I have my calendar marked for this one! Love the peach packaging, the Lunar New Year connection, and MAC’s take on the peach theme. Not sure about the quality of the shadows, but glad they are more soft browns/pinks rather than the warm browns/oranges everyone else has been doing. And looking to grab probably 3 of the lippies -hard to find peachy colors that look good on me. Trying to resist the blush duo, but might end up caving

I’ve never bought anything from MAC before, admittedly… their LE collections haven’t appealed to me much before, but this collection is so lovely! I really hope that eye palette is good because I think this is one of the few times I’d actually use every color in a palette!

Agree about the promo pic. Gold shimmer on the hoods — Seeing the obvious problem is understanding the importance of quality mattes on even the youngest and prettiest. MAC wasn’t thinking.

The eyeshadows look lovely . I am getting kind of tired of my UD Rose Naked3 Palette and this Palette looks like it may be good for my base shadows . Anxious to see how it performs !

The promo pic looks a bit like a beautiful zombie.
Dont get me wrong, i think this collection looks great…the packaging reminds me of that laundry collection, can’t remember the name.
I am also surprised yet not surprised to see mac on the peach train, but I guess they may have been planning it for a while? If the eyeshadows swatch well on darker skintones I’ll probably consider them. Otherwise at least the blush.

The packing is cute but other than some of the lipstick shades I’m not intrigued. Am I the only person that thinks this would’ve been a good opportunity for repromoting the peach ombre blush/lollipop lovin lipstick?

Kat Avatar

I’m admittedly peached out after Too Faced this year, but at least this packaging is reasonably sophisticated and yet totally on-topic (the gradient really does remind me of peaches but not in a childish way). I’ll most likely buy one of the satin or matte lipsticks to add to my LE MAC lipstick collection, if there’s a shade I don’t have a dupe for!

Alisha Avatar

I’m most likely going to buy from this collection since I wanted the Too Faced Peach collection and I refuse to buy any of it because they make their products with an ingredient I’m allergic to.

Yvette Avatar

I think everyone is missing the point about peaches… it’s not MAC jumping on a peach bandwagon, peaches are symbolic of immortality in China and are commonly used in art. Since is this celebrating Chinese/Lunar New Year, it is befitting to use the peach

Terry Avatar

On the positive the packaging is beautiful on this and pad as but peach? Pass I agree the promo pic is aweful last year the boxes were beautiful for the lunar collection but the actual product was their regular packaging maybe next year they’ll get both right lol!,

Bonnie Avatar

I’m also super disappointed in how MAC launched this collection. I was only able to get two pieces from it bc it sold out nearly instantly and only one MAC counter in all Vegas got the collection and they sold out everything too by noon. Just ridiculous.

Sydney Avatar

I find these colors very appealing. I’m disappointed that the internet has not offered me dupes yet. Christine? Dupes? Please. It sold out so quickly. These shades aren’t revolutionary. Dupes must exist. I’d take a list of best pinky/peachy shades even if you don’t have them for comparison.
