Creme de Nude<— I'm waiting for this!
It’s a permanant shade — you can get it now 🙂
its permanent!
its permanent
it’s weird that they are repromoting both msf’s from warm and cozy, can’t wait for stereo rose!!!
I’m happy about it! I missed By Candlelight last time.
I’m really not liking the look of this collection… it all looks so muted and un-Summer to me 🙁
PASS.
this has nothing to do with makeup, but i love your name. Maybe it’s cause that’s my little sisters name lol, ony she spells it Maizey. =)
Like Daisy Headed Maizey? 🙂
you could say that XD lol
FINALLY STEREO ROSE is being repromoted!!!! That alone is all I need from this collection.
Tell me about it! I’ve been waiting for it FOREVER!!
what’s a mineralize blue?
it’s supposed to be mineralized blush not blue…just a typo
Time for me to get the MSFs I missed out on before! Can’t wait!
Gah! So sad I’m allergic to mineralized products, I would love one of those MSFs (or all of them! :P), really miss mine after I had to give it away 🙁
I’m in the same boat. I’m allergic to them too and had to give away all mine as well. :(!!!!
If you’re allergic to any of MAC’s products do email them or write them because I think they do take things like that on board. About 10 years ago I along with some others used to be allergic to MAC’s lipstick and some people MUST have complained to MAC about this, because a year or so later their lipstick formulation changed and I could wear all of their lipsticks from then on! That must have been important to MAC considering their Viva Glam lipsticks. Who was gonna buy them and raise money for them if people were too allergic? LOL
I wonder what’s in them that causes an allergy. Bismuth, maybe?
I’ve been ok with the mineralized products, but I recall someone here mentioning they used to have problems with them until they started applying a thin layer of tea tree oil beforehand and that stopped the breakouts.
Stereo Rose???!!?! About time it’s been re-promoted!
STEREO ROSE!
that is all. I’m so excited! I’ve wanted to try it for aaaages. I’m also interested in Jazzed & All Styled Up lipsticks.
Wow! MSF and Cremesheen lovers are gonna go crazy over this!
I’ve always wanted to try the MSF’s and the cremesheen lipsticks sound lovely! The mineralize eyeshadows sound interesting. My only pet peeve is why do mineralize products have so much glitter or shimmer to them?
I’m definitely Anticipating this collection!!!
I was always pretty leery of shimmer and glitter, but as my skin gets older, let me tell you – that shimmer takes years off LOL! I understand now 🙂
This set of Mineralize shadows and blushes are going to have a “satin” finish not that same frosty/sparkle they have in the past! These are going to be far easier to use!!!!
HOLY CRAP ON A STICK WRAPPED IN A BLANKET IN A BASKET. STEREO ROSE.
omg this made me DIE laughing. just had to say 🙂
mwahahahah stereo rose! i laugh at the people paying hundreds for it!
Dreams do come true!
Whats a mineralize blue? Typing error?
lol sorry about that its obviously blush d=
isn’t stereo rose a msf that people have paid A LOT of money for? I’d be pissed if I spent $100 for it now that its being repromoted lol
Hmm, that’s my birthday… what a nice gift, MAC!!!
My birthday too! I was just thinking, “Well, I guess I know where my birthday money is going…”
me too!!! what great bday presents were getting huh?! lol 😛
OMG!! I completely missed out on Stereo Rose so I will be buying 2 mayb 3 this time! Backups are definitely necessary!! lol Cannot wait for this collection!!!
Stereo Rose!!!!
What’s a Mineralize Blue Duo?
*DEAD* i was planning to save my money for the feline collection, and now that’s shot to hell (thanks alot mac!!)
soooo excited. As Usual!!!
This collection is going to be amazing! Also, buy the way, you put Mineralize Blue instead of Blush.
yay!!! MSFs repromote =) =)
Thank god there is not a bunch of things I want from this collection (Phew!) I may pick up a mineralize blush. Which btw Christine I think you spelled blush as blue.
Yay I am so happy I didn’t chase down Stereo Rose! Whoo HOOO
Stereo Rose? OK where’s pleasureflush?!!
Why? MAC? I’m going to be so poor this summer.
we’ll see if stereo rose lives up to all the hype – my god the frenzy!
STEREO ROSE.
do my eyes deceive me?!
I’m all over this collection! I’ll have to try and hold myself back from buying it all! 😉
I have always wanted an MSF and thought Petticoat looked perfect. But now I read these comments about Stereo Rose so I looked it up and it looks very pretty too! Which one would be more versatile if you were picking just one?
I think you’d love Stereo Rose 🙂 But I don’t think you could go wrong with either!
yeah, I’m going to spend a lot of money on this… LOL
Time To Start Saving Money Sometimes I wish I never became obsessed with MAC because All I ever spend my money on is MAC haha but so excited for this collection.
oh my gosh i want it all!
I’m so happy they keep coming out with more mineralized blushes, I love them! Yay FOR MORE CREMESHEENS!
Oh my god.
Going Casual may be the color I’ve been wanting for the longest time!
I have never tried those Cremesheen glasses because I was never interested in the colors, but these sound quite interesting UMMMMMMMM I am considering to get about four of them just by reading the description. I ♥ lipsticks so I may include some of those too….
Did the prices of the MSF go up
Most likely!
CHRISTINE I WAS WONDERING IF U KNOW WHEN THIS WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THEIR WEBSITE TO BUY??
Around Tuesday, before it launches in-stores on Thursday.
YEAH THATS EXACLY WHAT I THOUGHT. i was like damn $28 dollars.. did i spend that much on my past msfs? i thinl the last time they were only like 25, then 26, then 27 .. and now 28. man mac is making a killing so far. cant wait for this collection, to the beach and pret a papier , oh yeah and then the feline one this fall.
Wow can we spell greed, like they don’t get enough money already, the distributors of the ingredients must be getting money hungry or its mac, one or the other!!
Wait! I’ve got this one!
Greed. G – R – E – E – D. Greed. Now let’s try another one! Spell: inflation. 😉 LOL!
Seriously, it sucks that things go up in price, but they do. Postage stamps go up in price ALL THE TIME. Food is more expensive today at the grocery store than it was 5 years ago. When the cost of one thing goes up, everything that depends on that one thing rises as well. This is PRE-economics 101 stuff.
Again, I’m not saying it doesn’t suck. I’m also not saying that you shouldn’t complain – Rally EVERYONE you can and start writting letters to MAC. If you get enough people involved, they’ll listen.
Act intelligently and make a lot of noise – Two key ingredients to any revolution (I’m serious!).
But… Beyond that, it’s just inflation. Candy bars used to cost a nickle too.
You are correct on that one dear but what any wise person knows the cause of inflation is greed…
Looking forward to the lipsticks and seeing what the cremesheenglass colours are like in person.. especially the weirder colours. And Stereo Rose!!! 😀 Why is MAC making 2010 so awesome?!
Can’t wait to see some promo pics^^
OMG I’ve heard so much about Stereo Rose…I guess it’s my chance to pick one up!!
YAY! I missed the MSFs from last time! x
STEREO ROSE! I’m all excited 🙂
I saw the info on an LJ community on April 1st, and I was super afraid it was an April Fool joke, haha 😛
Cool! Excited to see what this one’s gonna look like applied:
You’ve Got It Cremesheen Glass: Mid-tone silver grey
So it is true then! (I posted a reply about this on the Friday haul post, but you haven’t approved it, but anyway, it’s nice to see a confirmation of the rumour.) I’ll definitely want all the mineralized eyeshadows and blushes, and will probably pick up a Stereo Rose as well. 😉
For the record, I am one of those “idiots” who paid $$$’s (although nowhere near $100, more like $50-60) for a Stereo Rose, and I don’t regret it one bit. (I also paid $70 or so for a Pleasureflush.) You see, everyone else will have to wait until July to get their hands on it, whereas I’ll be able to use mine this morning, and tomorrow, and every day until July. ;P It is definitely worth the hype, it’s the prettiest coral-pink blush ever, way prettier than Nars Orgasm, and it has so glitter at all, not even much shimmer, it’s very very pretty.
um… so ignore my other comment on mineralize eyeshadows. lol! i think these were the ones i was talking about. hehe.
yess! Peticoat msf! i have by candlelight, but i’m gonna get a back up plus the other 2 msfs too =D
Wow stereo rose, that will sell out in a hot minute…mac is killing us with collections this year!!or is it me??
Wow @ Stereo Rose, about time!
MSFs!!!!!♥♥♥
I only started liking them this year, I’ve always ignored them. Snagged both from Warm & Cozy, now gotta stock up on Petticoat & Stereo Rose. They sound so pretty.
HOLY ***********************!!!!! STEREO ROSE IS COMING OUT lol So glad i did not pay over retail for it.
ooh i wanna get the stereo rose MSF.
YES I see a repromote of something I already have – I feel like I’ve been accepted into the MAC addicts club now ;]
STEREO ROSE!!!!!!
i cant wait for this collection! i want every lipstick and lipglass :O my poor wallet..
I have by candlelight and comfort (which I love) but the infamous Stereo Rose and Petticoat were released in collections prior to my MAC addiction..I can’t wait to pick these up!
STEREO ROSE?!?!?!? YEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!
thanx so much christine, finally a summer collection that doesnt have alot of pro , perm colors. im so excited for the mineraluzed items! i cant wait for stero rose msf. though i think its funny how mac is repromoting the 2 msf from warm and cozy so soon. whats up with that ? cant they make some new ones ? =) cant wait for pics
No clue 🙁
I’m definitely getting my hands on Pettocoat. There’s so much hype on stereo rose, maybe i’ll look at that! I thought MSFs were $27. Why MAC!?
No regular eyeshadows? Just mineralized ones? Guess I’m going to give this one a miss
I can already tell that this will be my favorite collection this year! Cremesheens AND MSFs? LOVE! 🙂
Oh daggone it! I just wanted to wait for the Feline Collection to come out to go crazy, but… this collection has two lipsticks I am dying to see swatches for: the go for it & I like it like that. Darn you MAc again!!!!
Hey Christine, any idea of when we might see some pictures from this collection?
Thank you!
No clue, just gotta wait for ’em to leak 🙂
Okay. Thank you Christine!!!! 🙂
im soo gunna get the mcf in by candelight i missed last time and now i can not waitttt! (:
I’m the silly one who paid over $100 for a BNIB Stereo Rose, I’ve a weak mind and easily sway by hype unfortunately. My limited patience doesn’t help either so even if I know that MAC is repromoting, I will still go ahead and purchase it but perhaps not at that price since other bidders will give way lol.
It’s really a nice coral colour and I have a male colleague praising me when I wear Stereo Rose. We are working together for 5 years and I wear makeup everyday, he didn’t notice until I wore Stereo Rose? So I console myself that this justify the crazy amount I paid lol.
I told my friend that I’m going to buy 10 Stereo Rose this time and try to sell later to earn back my bucks.
To Christine,
Thank you so much for these information! I really appreciate your swatches, pictures and opinions.
Buying ten to sell back is kinda crappy, no?
Agreed I really wanted it 2 but I would never do that to someone
OMG I can’t wait for this collection to come out. I havent been this excited ever since Colour Craft lol. I might get most of the products but I wanna see swatches and wanna see them in person. My wallet is going to suffer (sigh.)
Will these products be in
limited edition packaging?
Yes!
ooh what is the theme of the LE packaging?
May I just chime in with everyone else for a second?
OMFG STEREO ROSE!
will any of the MSF’s be permanent from this collection?
Nope!
Will the msf’s be in regular packaging?
I don’t think this collection has special packaging.
M S effing’ F’s !!!!!
Oh. My. God.
*drools*
omg… i want these msf’s badly! should i order online? im afraid they will be sold out as soon as the collection comes out!?!?!?!?!
i dont know it seem like everyone is gonna run out to buy it lol i need these msf’s in my life!! lol online sounds good but its not instant gratification..
what do u think christine?
I would grab ’em 🙂 If you have a good idea as to what you want, they usually have a free shipping code for each launch (I bet it will be GROOVE) and I think overnight or 2-day is only $5 or $10 after that! If I order online, I just pass the “free shipping” threshold and go for 2-day or overnight, ha! It helps since I’m in California, so if I go regular, it’ll take 7-10 days.
great idea, thanx!
Waiting for the Sneak peek pics 🙂
Any idea if they’ll be repromoting Shimpagne at some point?
Nope, sorry!
Dawn,
Shimpagne was release with the Warm/Cozy collection during the 2009 Holiday collection. It was in a set with Nuance Mineralized Blush, the 181 kabuki brush and Play on Plums Mineralized e/s.
You can pick the set up @ your local CCO for $41 or $42.00.
IHTH.
Natalie
When will their be pictures? I know for the SpringColour collection we had pictures of the stuff about three months beforehand. I’m dying to see this collection & the feline collection.
I don’t know, sorry!
Now THIS i am going to blow my money on, rather than To The Beach! Can’t wait!
Same! I was so excited for the To the Beach Collection until I came across this collection. I guess the other one caught my eye because of the swatches and pictures that are available; this collection is going to be the death of my wallet.
Hi Christine, what is the difference between cremesheen lipsticks & amplifieds? I am looking forward to this collection as well as the feline one in August.
Cremesheens aren’t as creamy or opaque as amplifieds – they are a bit drier and have more of a frost sheen.
awww noooo!!!! im going to be on vacation and im gonna miss this launch!!!!! :[
when do are u gonna have all the swatches and images?
I expect the day it launches. I do not anticipate anything early unless circumstances change.
Stereo Rose Thats for me!
Hi Christine, can you please tell me the difference between cremesheen & amplified creme lipsticks? I want about four from this collection and four from the feline collection.
Amplified Creme – Ultra-creamy. Quietly shiny. Colour-packed! Hi-res: hi-impact.
I don’t know what the official description is for Cremesheen, but it’s not nearly as creamy, usually not as opaque/pigmented.
im not spending any money till this & digi pops! but i want like everything! hay yi yi
This upcoming collection should be epic; I’ll definitely have to save up because I already want all of the MSFs, with the exception of comfort, a few Mineralized Blushes and a few of the Lipsticks… I say sorry to my wallet in advance.
When will pics be up?
I don’t know, sorry! :/
Looking forward to Jazzed. 😀
I’m also picking up a Stereo Rose, I’m quite curious about all the hype around it. I’ve seen swatches and it indeed looks very beautiful.
I was wondering if Petticoat would look good on me, Christine.
Maybe as a highlight?
I’m NC35. 😛
Guess who is going to be super saver until July 8th? I am!
Can’t wait for all of the MSFs! 😀 well… except comfort
I thought you would be the first Blog with Promo Pictures ^^ because I always get my LE informations from your website first =)
=> so I had a problem with the Mac to the Beach collection , because I always have a look on the swatches you make, before I visit my local mac store 🙂 but in germany this collection was released in 3 weeks earlier than in the US ^^
I am wondering because in Germany we already have pictures from the collection 🙂
for example here:
http://mackarrie.blogspot.com/2010/04/mac-in-grove-le.html
——
no it´s NOT my blog and I don´t want to promote this blog – I just want to share the pictures with all of you!!!!! 🙂
Im sorry if there are pictures on this site – I just didn´t find them 🙂
Thanks for sharing! 🙂 I do not usually get promo images first, because U.S. bloggers have the images sent from PR about 1-2 weeks before the collection launches.
I wish that purple lipstick was sheer and similar to Jungle Juice. I miss that color.
Blue My Mind eyeshadow trio, and Go For It Lipstick will be mine!!
Oh man, this collection was MADE for me – cremesheen glasses & lipsticks, powerpoint pencils, the old skinfinishes… I’m gonna be sooo broke by the end of this!!
Ooooh, gurl . . . you’re KILLING me with all these launches!
Question: Which MSF would be best for an NW15 complexion? Really, I’m NW17; but they don’t make an in between, so I’m closest to NW15.
Thanks!
Melissa
Petticoat & By Candlelight.
Are the MSFs like bronzers? Or more like blushes?
Depends on the shade.
pictures are fab!
nothing is really calling my name.. for once 🙂
are you serious? nearly EVERYTHING is calling MY name 😀
wHAT IS THE MSF EVERYONE IS FREAKING OUT ABOUT?? i LIKE THIS COLLECTION BUT JUST SPENT $350 ON TO THE BEACH! wHOOPS! HAHAHA ALL MY MONEY GOES TO MAC. CANT WAIT TO SEE SWATCHES. LOOKS LIKE A NICE COLLECTION. IM NEW TO MAC SO CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE ROSE MSF THING?? HAHA.
The Stereo Rose MSF is from the original cast of MSFs. Along with Pleasure Flush (highly Coveted), and a few others, it is a must have product. look it up on Ebay and expect to see it price at $100 or more. I expect to see a frenzy much like the Marine Life debacle so I would be sure to purchase 2, one for use and a backup.
WOW! I def will..Wonder what it looks like!
I am dying right now! I wasn’t really feeling this collection until now. I feel a major haul coming on.
OMG.. Blue my mind definitely blew my mind away.. very nice name too
Wooo really pretty 🙂
Nothing really catches my eye except maybe By Candlelight. I might get an MSF or two Im not buying into the hype this time. Not after my To the Beach let down…=[
OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG I want that purple lipstick. Go for it! I want about three!!!!!!
I’m snagging petticoat and by candlelight.. I was kicking myself for not grabbing them in the other collections. Other than that this collection doesn’t really impress me
Purple lipstick! I want I want!
Ditto! Everyone’s freaking out about Stereo Rose and I’m thinking OMG did you all skip TOTALLY OVER the lipsticks?! Wantz!
Those are the ones I have my eyes on and on the Cremesheen unique colors!!! PURPLE, pinks, browns, muted tones, brights love them all!!!
hahaha! I thought the same thing.. PURPLE l/s!!! 🙂
Hi Christine,
I know this is a very minor detail but thanks for putting down all the Canadian prices ! 😀
Sure thing, Bernice!
besides the msfs, what do you think are the must haves of this collection?
Nothing is a must-have to me until I’ve been able to see & swatch it!
in the promo pictures they all look gorgious don’t they?
Is it true that stereo rose is going to be different from the one previously released.I ‘ll surely buy by candlelight and petticoat.everyone says stereo rose is a must have …and about bronze:I’m nc20 do you think it would look good on me to bronzen up my look a little bit???
(the promos look amazing and I want two blushes and 4 eyeshadows!something has to be sacrified!!!)
I have no idea, and it’ll be hard to say until someone with both an older one and the new one can compare. I don’t have the older one (gave it to a friend a long time ago).
I could see it bronzing you up a bit 🙂
Oh no…I have my eye on those MSF’s, I thought I wouldn’t be tempted into any MAC collections this summer except one of those LE pigments.
OMG i’M so going to be broke for this collection. I can’t wait to buy all the msfs and I’m going to get two of go for it lipstick and I like it that 🙂
oooohh! Stereo Rose sounds lovely! For anyone lemming Petticoat, I would check out your local CCO as I got mine there only last month and i adore it!
im already in love with On The Scene Creemesheen Glass & seeing all the ave bout MSF Stereo Rose, it’s hard to resist that one too 😉
exciting collection indeed.
Ooo.. I really want “Go for It!” Awesome purple!
thank god i totally ignored mac to the beach!
I’m glad I did too..cause I’m really looking forward to this one!
Christine, how does Stereo Rose compare in color and texture to Marine Life?
I don’t find it anything like it, personally. It’s a good deal pinker and has so much more shimmer. The texture is also different – kind of a sheer, shimmered look vs. a satin powdered look.
Thanks for the comparison. Don’t those promo pictures look HOT! That dress is so gorgeous and the crushed mineral mosaic is pure art. No more money left for me!
The descriptions had me so pumped for this collection but after seeing photos I don’t think I’m as interested…
I’m not too keen on the eyshadows or blush duos but I’m loving those lipsticks! The purple one is a must have 🙂
All I want is Stereo Rose, and Petticoat. None of the pink lipsticks seem differenct enough & the other colors don’t seem like something I need & I will have to swatch the blushes to decide if I want any of those. At lease I feel like I can save some money this collection.
1. I wish cremesheen glasses had more color payoff… Bah!
2. I wonder if the matte texture mineralize shadows will be as eye irritating as the regular ones (I rarely use them on people – Even I have a problem with those little buggers).
3. That purple lipstick is MINE! MINE MINE MINE!!! MUAH HAH HAH HAH!!! [scowling and rubbing hands together] mine… 😉
by candlelight, petticoat msf and creamsheen glasses! so excited!
Can’t wait for I like it like that and Right Image! WHOOOO!!! 🙂
I’ve already warned my husband about how much I’m gonna spend on this collection! lol
Does this launch in Canada with the US date or the international date?
Yes! 🙂
MAC has had so many big collections for summer, this almost seems like overkill…
im all about funky purple lipstick haha 🙂
I like the two pink lipsticks two!
ohh i really want the pink /lavender mineral blush
soooo pretty
I’m gonna get Stereo Rose just so I can see what the big deal is. I may want to get By Candlelight too. I had Petticoat & I wasn’t too crazy about it.
Looks exactly like last years mineral collection~
Surprisingly, I’ve never tried any Cremesheen or Mineralize products (except for the Mineralize Satinfinish liquid foundation which is my #1 favorite foundation), so I’ll definitely need to take a look at MAC when this collection comes out!
No, not feeling this collection. Looks like it was thrown together – there’s no rhythm, no theme, no imagination. I’ll skip it all, thanks.
I like the looks of the last mineralize blush on the bottom row, which colour is that!?
OMG! The purple lipstick looks just like Violetta! I must have that since I cant have violetta as theres no pro stores in my area!! So excited!! I’m in taiwan and the collections usually launch a couple weeks before the U.S.
New Vibe looks exactly like Bi-Tone from Too Fabulous, which is fantastic. I didn’t think that one was going to be my favorite from that collection but I am addicted to it. I’m very fair but I just dab a little of it on and it gives such a healthy rosy glow – that’s the blush i get the #1 amount of compliments on hands down. It’s a serious head turner!
New Vibe is even better because it’d be easier to control just taking the bronze or the rose.
Also OMG @ Hang Loose and Band of Roses. I love this trend towards stronger blush!
Has anyone seen a picture or swatch of the ‘Love to Love’ Eyeshadow Trio? That’s the one I’m interested in! They all look lovely though.
Yayy for MSF! Even if they have been around before, I don’t have any of them!
is petticoat msf similar to light flush msf??
Everything looks amazing (as usual), but my only question is: How do you make purple lipstck wearable? I can’t think of any occasion where it could work (except maybe Halloween)!
Personally, I wear my ‘odd’ lipsticks with either a sheer wash of neutral eyeshadow, or more often a simple black winged eyeliner. I wear all black or all gray and black clothing very often, so the outfit clashing isn’t a problem. I can see that it might be a bit more ‘out there’ for a lot of people, but I’m a teenager, so I’m going to enjoy my creative license while I can!
I don’t know how pigmented this one is, but if it’s sheer I suppose you could layer it with other colors too. I’m not into layering my lipcolors really, so I honestly wouldn’t know much about that.
Loving hang loose and all of those MSF’s. I’ll be passing on all the lip products.
*massive gasp* Purple lipstick!! I’ve missed out on like, the last 3 because I have no money, but OMG, I just have to have,….
And the Cremesheen Glasses!!! MY FAVORITE FORMULA! I need those bad!
And that pink/purple blush tooo… oh Jeebus!!!
I think I’m going to get my first mineralized skinfnish! Hopefully sterorose will be worth it!
I’d love it if someone could answer these questions! Thanks! 🙂
What would the perfect brush be for a light application?
How are these on oily/combo skins?
Are they mainly highlighters on med/darker skintones (NC35 & up)?
187 or 131.
I think they’re fine on oily/combo skin.
Stereo Rose, Petticoat, & Comfort may give you some color, By Candlelight will be more like a highlighter. Petticoat may or may not deliver on lots of color.
I’m drooling.. I want this WAYYYYYYYYY more than To The Beach!
Yeahness for this collection! I luvs me some mineralize products and creemsheens!
Are by candlelight and shell pearl too similar to own both?
They have different finishes, so I don’t think so.
I have a little list going for this one.
Go For It!- definitely. There are so few bluish purples around.
Chillin- I loves me the wacky colours
Stereo Rose & Petticoat- I already have By Candlelight and I adore it!! These other two look too gorgeous to pass up.
I’m guessing at least one of the MES will appeal to me- most likely Style Influencer, based on the descriptions. The blushes… I’m curious to see Hang Loose. It’s sort of a sore point with me that MAC does not have a lilac or other light purple blush. I’d just love to have something light and cool toned beyond the pinks they have available.
I’m also curious to see Jazzed in person. Orange colours can either realy work or really fail for me.
Thanks, as always, for the pics!
Are petticoat and light flush similar? I have 2 light flush and I’m not sure if I need petticoat also.
Kind of – Petticoat is a little more raspberry.
hi Christine, do you think that the msf’s will go fast? If so let me know 🙂 thank you
Yeah, they probably will. Stereo Rose will go quickly, then maybe Petticoat. The other two may eventually sell out, but they won’t be super fast.
MAC IS KILLING ME SOFTLY! ….i just bought a bunch of jap and korean products…now i have to save for this!…and then the disney collection AHH
Those last two Cremesheen glasses look dreamy.
might get Style Influencer MES, the colors remind me of the Urban Decay get baked palette haha 🙂 and Stereo Rose MSF.
I want all the MSF’s!
oooooooooh cant wait soooo much better than the “to the beach”!
Definitely excited for Jazzed maybe I Like It Like That. On The Scene looks pretty, but I’m going to have to see it in person to decided to buy it or not. Definitely buying Stereo Rose, maybe Petticoat. 🙂
The blue based purple will be an interesting color. I like it but don’t think it will work for me. And I would agree with some others this isn’t really a summer collection, I would guess it as a transition from summer to fall.
Don’t really see anything I’m too excited about…now I can go buy the rest of To The Beach!!
Style Influencer kind of looks like a reversed Russian Flag, lol 🙂
Son of a… RRRRR.
This just isn’t fair. All of a sudden MAC starts rolling out awesome collections filled with limited edition stuff I won’t be able to get. Maybe if it was perm, yes I could eventually
bit by bit but this is just an overload. I’ll be sighing a lot this summer.
Thank you so much for the pictures Christine!
I really like the colours of the eye trios (especially that they didn’t put any metallic shades in there!), but I would have liked the blushes to have some pretty veinings. Not so sure about the lipsticks, and definitely pass on the cremesheen glasses. I already have Petticoat, By Candlelight and Stereo Rose, but will pick up another SR to see if it’s any different, and never wanted Comfort. I might not actually spend as much on this collection as I previously thought, lol.
Christine, when you get your hands on these, would you do a comparison between Calm, Cool, and Collected and the Photorealism quad?
I will see what I can do – it kind of just depends on when I get it. If it’s the launch day, I pretty much just try to get photos and swatches of the new collection up ASAP.
I probably already own colors just like it, but I know I won’t be able to pass up Calm, Cool, & Collected. I’m a sucker for green.
I wanna check out Jazzed and All Styled Up lipsticks, all cremesheen glasses, Calm, Cool & Collected eye shadow, and Hang loose and Band of Roses blush!
So much for budgeting!!
Everything looks so pretty!
Chrisitne, i’m quite ignorant here … what’s the stereo rose they are talking about here? Seems like everyone likes it.
It’s a mineralize skinfinish (that’s prong #1 for a hyped up product!) and it was only released once — Goldplay in 2005.
Oh okay, thanks.
Where’s Pleasureflush?
I thought that was supposed to be re-released with this collection as well?
Don’t get me wrong – I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Petticoat and am digging Comfort and BY Candlelight – but why re-release them so soon – especially BC and Comfort?
Stereo Rose – YEAH! About time but why not some of the other ones such as Metal Rock and Northern Lights?
Nat
No, I have never heard about Pleasureflush coming out with this collection.
I don’t really understand why they’re re-releasing Comfort and By Candlelight so soon, Warm & Cosy only came out maybe 6 months ago?
I would have loved Pleasureflush and Metal Rock instead, but never mind. Imo Northern Lights is cr*p though, it’s got a very gritty texture and it’s such a glitterfest! 🙂
i will be leaving this collection. I`m not that i`m mac’s mineral blushes and eyeshadow, i may check out the lip products, but other than that i`m passing.
Christine! Just wondering~ Are there expiry dates for products like MSFs~? I’d love to collect them~! 🙂
Also, there’s the cap looking thingy behind some skincare product that shows “12M” for 12 months, I presume::~ Does it mean it’s good 12 months from manufacturing date or it’s good 12 months after you’ve opened the product~?
Thanks, Christine!
Technically, yes, but powder products don’t usually have bacteria, since bacteria like warm, moist places.
If it says 12M, it is 12M from opening.
So, the infamous ‘Stereo Rose’ is back. Hmmm…
I want that blush duo in the middle of the top row. 🙂
Wow that looks like an amazing collection, I cant wait for the swatches to help me decide what to get
I have been waiting for a purple lipstick like that! Come to mama!!!
I’m so stinkin’ excited for this collection. I’ve been impatiently waiting since I first found out about it. Hence, why I didn’t go crazy for To the Beach (to save money!). I would up getting Lazy Day, Marine Life, and Hipness. For this collection, I got my eye on two lipsticks, a shadow or two, and all the MSF’s!
O.M.G.
Glad to finally see the promo pics (but my wallet isn’t)! Hopefully I can just stick with Stereo Rose… By Candlelight might creep in there… maybe Jazzed too… oh no.
Christine if I already have Shell Pearl do I need By Candlelight? I’ve never tried MSFs before so i’m not sure how they feel on the face
They’re pretty lightweight, but I find they can sometimes accentuate pores!
OMG! I love their summer Mineralize collections! Can’t wait for this!
Wow, so these will be released the same day as Alice and Olivia?
I believe so!
hmm.. only 6 out of the 9 trio eyeshadows..??
Oh my God! I’m gonna be sooo broke after this. I’ve never bought anything from MAC so I guess that’s why I’m so excited. I was going to buy a couple things from the To The Beach collection but they sold out of everything I really wanted. People say this collection looks muted, but I actually kinda like it, I don’t really like super bright colors.
WOWOW.
I am excited for this…
BUT 🙁 I will be out of the country during July 8th!
Christine, How long do you think this collection will be on mac counters?
I have a feeling stereo rose will be sold out by the time I come back 🙁
Stereo Rose will sell out pretty quickly. The collection is out for at least a month, I’d say, but pieces may sell out faster than that.
Like someone said it all looks so dark and muted for summer, it should be a winter collection instead, very disappointed 🙁
can’t wait for stereo rose!!!
im looking for a highlighter for my nc25 skin which msf will alow me to have a nice glow
By Candlelight
Would love to see how the purple lipstick turns out!
Think I’ll try to buy something from this collection…
What do you think you’ll be wanting from this collecton?
Stereo Rose FOR SURE! hahah 🙂
by candlelight & Hang Loose are the only items looking nice to me.
i think i might also get stereo rose as well because of the rave reviews
I just broke the bank with to the beach now this sigh
I’m definitely getting some cremesheen lipstick and glass. The mineralize shadows always look amazing, but the color payoff isn’t that great. Maybe these will be different!
Which eyeshadow is the one in the bottom left corner? I can’t tell by the descriptions.
All the eyeshadows are labeled? I’m confused…
Christine, when do you think you will have the first swatches?
I have no idea. You should assume not until the day it launches, though.
I like some of the lipgloss and lipstick colours! I guess I’ll put some of these on my wish list, especially the corals. Cremesheen glass is so pretty and smooth; can’t wait to see the new colours!
I want to see stereo rose in person now because of all the fuss lol right now I am surprised at how interested I am in this collection…I really like the purple and brown lippies…the mineral e/s look wicked too! I am also pretty excited about the cremesheen glasses…overall this looks like a cool collection 🙂
Can someone let me know if Petticoat is similar to Perfect Topping? I have Perfect Topping and if it’s similar (as a highlighter), then maybe I’ll pass on that. I’m a NC20.
No, it’s not. Petticoat is much pinker. If you get one with not much veining, then it’s a lot like Porcelain Pink, but if it’s got a lot of veining, then it’s quite dark raspberry pink actually. I have one each and the dark one is actually pretty dark on me even as a blush (I’m a Light Medium to Medium (MSFN) or Givenchy Photoperfection foundation no 4 (perfect vanilla) for reference.) Hope this helps.
I love mineralize produkts but i don’t like the colours;) there is nothing on this collection i would buy… i’ll save my money for the disney collection 🙂
I’m loving it. Im going to stop by the CCo cause I think by candelight is already there. Those lippies BETTER be a cute as they sound and the coral skinfinish is a musty!
if you were going to pick up 2 MSFs which would you choose?
stereo rose (it sells for $100 on ebay) for sure.
and any of the other ones you want. i’m getting by candlelight.
if you were going to pick up 2 MSFs which would you choose, which are the hardest to dupe?
when does it come out?
July
this collection looks really pretty.. but i have to see the swatches before i’m able to decide what i’m going to purchase!
thank you so much christine for your pre-informations about all the mac collections!!
Oh this collection is very pretty… I have enough makeup but I’m definitely looking forward to see if there’s anything worth cheating on my makeup buying ban for….
Oh my god.
Purple lipstick.
I need it. I NEED it.
OK, so I’m going to sound like such a dork for saying this, but the mineralized e/s trio in the middle of the bottom row looks like a pokeball…
does anyone plan on getting any cremesheen lipsticks or lipglass
I don’t see anything that really interests me… but we’ll see after you swatch things.
Holy Cow Batman! I am loooooooving this collection. Looking forward to that fabulous looking purple lipstick. I hope it has more purple in it than pink. I hate pink undertones in my purple lipsticks. Also loving the Right Image lipglass, stereo rose & a few of those eyeshadows are looking like they are calling my name. Can’t wait for the Feline Collection, Disney and that Tartan one coming out also. Wondering if the Tartan one will have plaid colored lipstick mixshades in them?
I can’t wait for this collection. Oh my poor wallet lol!!
omg purple lippies!
I cannot wait for petticoat and stereo rose! Hopefully I can get that one before it sells out!
OMG… i want them!
ok…prolly a stupid question but whats all the hype about Stereo Rose??? Of course im getting it LOL but why??
OMG- one word describes this collection: beautiful
So glad to see By Candlelight and Comfort back, I missed these when they came out back around the Christmas holiday!! 😀
I’m a little bummed about the packaging, but none-the-less, I want it.
I don’t like the mineralize eye shadows in general. And no new msfs? I’m disappointed 🙁
I have so many things on my WL from this collection… I can’t wait! I’ll be calling my MAC every day from 7/1 on so I make sure I can be there for the release if it’s early!
Excited about Band of Roses Mineralize Blush and Stero Rose MSF
Thinking about petticoat, does anyone have it? What are your opinions on it. I really don’t want to spend the 32.50 on something that isn’t well liked.
I wasn’t sure about this collection, especially the e/s, but they look really pretty. And I love blushes so I hope tehy look as pretty in person!
I have really big pores and have heard that MSF’s aren’t good for that type of skin. Is that true and is there a use best fit so they don’t emphasis pores?
Pleasseee, when will you have the swatches ?? I’m willing to see them ! 🙂
You should assume the day it launches – I never have any control over if or when I will receive anything earlier than the launch date. Sorry that I can’t help you!
Will the size of the eyeshadows be the same as a regular pot or a little bit bigger? It looks like the middle line could only be grabbed with a 208 or 209
Mineralize Eyeshadows are bigger than regular powder eyeshadows.
Petticoat and Stereo Rose! (L)! I’m going to be at my MAC counter an hour before they open, because I just have to have those!
Do you know if MAC is doing a FF sale this June? Thanks!
No, I don’t have any information. If I know of anything, I will be sure to post 🙂
will this collection be releasing the same day as Alice and Olivia??
I believe so.
Hey Christine! I’m pretty sure Stereo Rose and By Candlelight MSFs are mislabeled!
It looks to me like you flipped the pictures for By Candlelight and Stereo Rose! I’ve never had (or even swatched) an MSF cuz I just got into MAC fairly recently, so I am definitely interested in checking them out!
Hm, I thought Stereo Rose looked funny – looks like the photos were labeled wrong as sent by MAC PR 🙁
Oh I can’t wait for this! Those mineralized eyeshadows are insane!
Holy wow. This is an insane collection.
Wow, I don’t like anything / don’t want to get anything. That’s a first. 😀 It’s a nice collection but everything is already seen, more or less. :/
so much stuff is on my list… lol
If mineralized blushes didn’t break me out so horribly I would totally get “Happy Together”, beautiful colors and super sweet name, which to me matters, haha.
I’ve finally decided!
Petticoat,by candlelight and stereo rose (cause I know I’ll regret it)
And hang loose!!! Omg itlooks soooooo pretty!!!!!!
Do you think it will be too pigmented? Cause it looks sheer and I like blushes that are not very pigmented…
No idea.. hard to say without seeing it in person.
Beautiful collection.
soften the mood es looks so original. sky blue isn’t a colour mac usually does.
and i dunno about stereo rose, i’m not an MSF fan.
I am seriously dying to get my hands on those MSF’s!
Oh Boo! Too bad the MSF’s break me out, Stereo Rose looks pretty. Not even gonna try the mineralize blushes. 🙁
And let the race to Stereo Rose begin. I am wiped out over this darn Marlin Life goose chase like FOR REAL. MAC, serrssly, this is getting really OLD!
I wanna get Chillin’ just for the heck of it.
I’m so glad to see By Candlelight and Comfort MSF back, I missed them during the release of the Warm & Cozy collection. Hopefully they won’t sell out once they launch this collection, I’ve got my calendar marked, I will be so disappointed if I miss these two MSF’s this time!!
I am a huge sucker for MSFs. I’ve been waiting for repromotes of these for a while now. Will definitely get Stereo Rose and Petticoat. I also want Happy Together!!
WOW!!! more pictures YAY!!!!
I am so looking forward to those Cremesheen glasses (finally some interesting colors, these would be my 1st cremesheen glasses) and also some of the lipsticks specially the purple one (but I think I want all the new lipsticks ^_^ ) !!!
What a lovely collection! A good incentive to find me a proper job this summer and save some. Though I have a feeling saving will not be all I need to do in order to lay my hands on Stereo Rose. Wonder if I can put up a tent by my counter? 😛 Seriously, though, this collection will kill my whole budget. Stereo Rose and Petticoat I must have, and Band of Roses looks lovely as does Happy Together. And then all those shadows! Argh! Too gorgeous photos.
I looove MSFs 🙂 Stereo Rose, Petticoat, and By Candlelight will be mine the day it hits stores 🙂 What a great early birthday gift for myself!
I will definettly pick up the purple lipstick! even if i won’t wear it that often, and it IS a dreadful creamsheen (i hate how they melt to easily), i will still buy it FOR SURE
Hey christine i have a really important question for you,
I REAAAALLLY want stereo rose but i won’t be able to go to mac the day the collection releases, so i was wondering if i’m able to reserve one for when i’m able to get it or have someone go up and get it for me?
Please reply!!
thanks 🙂
Hi Madi,
I think you may be able to… I’d check with the store, though.
What is the big deal about stereo rose?! It looks kind of ‘blah’ to me. Does it look really pretty in person? I’m def. getting my hands on petticoat and jazz lipstick.
It’s one of the original MSFs – not the FIRST launch of MSFs, but it was launched in 2005 and has never been re-released since its original release.
YESSSS!!! What a beautiful collection & colors. I am wondering if that purple lipstick “go for it” is anything like Violetta? I hope not. I mean I like the Violetta lipstick but it isn’t a true purple shade in my view. I want a pure purple color. Also All Styled Up lipstick looks great.
Soften the mood is pretty, I can see me buying a few things from this collection
Oh thank you baby jesus! I’m not looking forward to much from this collection…except for those pink lippies! I just gotta have my pink lippies!
I love Band of Roses. Might have to get my hands on that one.
Now I’m really excited! Thanks for the updated pictures!
So how would a NW40-ish/ (177 in MUFE HD) use Stereo Rose? I have heard so much about it but feel like I already have so many highlighting products. Also, on a slightly related note, the Victoria’s Secret summer makeup line has baked mineral eyeshadows that look EXACTLY like these and dare I say are pigmented and wonderful. The one I have is Jungle Heat.
I think it should show up, but that’s going off of the original Stereo Rose!
Rawr! I love the lipsticks!! Can’t wait for it!!!
love hang loose and petticoat! i think they’ll look gorgeous on fair asian skin! YAY
mm i’m thinking of picking up stereo rose and maybe petticoat…might add in one of the mineral eye trio’s onto my list
So, I’ve been wanting Creme de Nude for a while. From the pics it seems as though they aren’t doing any type of unique packaging for this collection. Is that correct? If so, I’m going to get it now instead of waiting. =)
Yep, looks like just regular ol’ packaging 🙂
Hmm..I want MSF Petticoat, Stereo Rose, and the Togetherness eyeshadow. Craaaap.
Is By Candlelight similar to Cheeky Bronze? I have Cheeky Bronze, and from the pictures they look similar. Is it worth getting By Candlelight? Thank You!
Nah, By Candlelight is pinker and much, much lighter. Don’t trust a MAC promo pic… EVER!
can’t wait gotta get tht stero rose will be ordering off at 12a during the launch date lol….
I’m really only interested in the MSFs this time around. I missed them before, so I’m hoping to get my paws on Stereo Rose, By Candlelight, and Petticoat. Otherwise meh.
Honestly I’m not all that excited. Maybe when I see swatches of the stuff I’ll be more interested. At this point though I don’t think I’ll be buying much of anything
sooooo excited for this collection! x
I’ve been wanting Petticoat and Stereo Rose. Now I can get these plus back ups!!! Can’t wait!!
Hi Christine!
I was just interested in your opinion..
i have nw20 skin, and i’m wondering what you would recommend for me out of Stereo Rose MSF or By Candlelight MSF?
I already have petticoat on my list, but i’m still deciding between those two.
Thanks in advance!
I’d go with Stereo Rose, TBH, lol. You won’t have much time to ponder that!
i am dying for this collection , cant wait
YES!!!!! Loving that purple lippie. Hoping its a real grape lipstick shade and not one of those that as it fades turns pink or red. Other than that nothing else is really interesting to me at the moment.
The colors of the lip products in this collection are real weird, but in a good way. Chillin’ lip glass looks very intriguing.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOh so pretty!!! That purple lipstick is MINE! ALL YOU OTHERS STAY AWAY..JK I want all the lipsticks,creemsheen glasses, eyeshadows and stereo rose is MINE MINE MINE
Interesting collection. I’ll wait to see it in person.
Looking forward to By Candle Light msf, Calm Cool & Collected mes trio and Go For It l/s. I already have Stereo Rose and honestly, I’ve never been overly impressed :-\
phew i don’t think I like anything for once.
Going Casual, Go for it, and Right Image -will- be mine. Not too interested in the eyeshadows, unless the swatch out to be fantastic. The new vibe and hang loose blushes are intriguing, but I am on the fence.
YAYYYYYYYYYYYY STEREO ROSE AND PETTICOAT!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!! Yup I was one of those people who considered paying over $100 for them LMAO but yay my dream has finally come true =D July 8th, I AM THERE.
Hi Christine!
Just wanna know if any of this MSF looks like with shimpagne MSF.
Thanks =]
Not really, By Candlelight would be the closest, but it is pinker.
finally i am gonna have all Mineralize skinfinish that i wanted and thanks god didnt buy from ebay its double the price.
what do you think will be the most popular from this collection?
The MSFs.
glad that Stereo Rose Mineralize Blush is making a comeback…I have been saving my last one from five years ago and treating it very carefully! hopefully I can pick up another one for backup because the mineralize powders are prone to breaking:(
Comfort is still available on the website, but i thought it was limited ed. Whats right? are they the same?
Yes they are the same. They probably still have some available
is the by candlelight msf the same msf as the one in the warm and cozy collection? because it doesnt look like it..
Promo photos can be misleading!
Which MSF would be great for my skintone? I’m a NW25/NC30. Thank You!
Try Comfort 😉
The mineralized blushes look exactly like the blushes that were released earlier this year.
YESSSSSSSIRE!!!! Loving all the lipsticks & lipglasses! I want them all. Not sure which blush I want, it’s between band of roses & hang loose. I’m going to be soo broke this year.
Im waiting for Making It Easy Mineralize Eyeshadow
Quick question, (hope its not a duh question but I’m fairly new to mac) so what is the difference between this Comfort and the Comfort msf already on their website? O_o
Not a one! They’re the same.
Wonder if they have a tiny amount of products (i.e. Stereo Rose)to drive us all crazy again a la Peach Ombre and Marine Life…. Makes me kinda angry they do that to us! Why not make us happy and make more $?!
Finally i can get my By Candlelight msf!!
Btw ladies, you can see swatches here in the meantime Christine gets her hands on them 🙂
http://haruhii.pixnet.net/blog/post/26339500
jeez! it’s like when i watch lifetime and they say “television for women” and i have to yell, “PEOPLE! TELEVISION FOR PEOPLE!”
i’m not a “ladies” but i still like to see swatches too! 😉 LOL! Thanks for the post! go for it looks AWWWEEESOOOOMMME!!!
what for you use stereo rose and petticoat MSF and wich brush you use ?
Try the 187!
I love the lipsticks but I’ve just never been able to get into mineralized products!
I am so excited about Stereo Rose! I am getting 4 of them!! I am still deciding whether to get Petticoat or not…I have heard good and bad things about it.
cant wait, the eyeshadow are tempting!
My goodness. The swatch of that “go for it” purple lipstick is amazing. It will be mine!
petticoat mineralized skin finish. 😀
I definitely want to get by candlelight, really happy its back since i missed out when i came out a few months back. Just recently got into MSF’s as Im new to it all and I love the ones I have! I also want to get petticoat .. stereo rose looks okay to me online .. not sure what the hype is but Ill probably try get it because it will probably be a regret if I don’t.
I thought they were also promoting a number of eyeshadow pans that you could purchase at the counter?
That is a different collection called Digi-Pops.
i am actually really excited for this collection!
this is my wishlist:
Soften the Mood Mineralize eyeshadow
Calm, Cool, & Collected Mineralize Eyeshadow
love to love, or making it easy mineralize eyeshadow
petticoat msf
YAY!
Hi Christine,which msf and blushes would you recommend for an NC50 girl:) thanks in advance!! i appreciate the help.
Petticoat & Comfort!
sorry one more question….Do you know if there will be a pre_release party for this collection?
I don’t think so… this isn’t a huge launch!
I was thinking about getting Go For It! lipstick, but I think it’s too cool toned to work with my skintone. I do better with red toned purples.
OMG I can’t wait till this Collection hits Australia =) Till I can get my hands on that Mineralized Blush Duo and Eyeshadow Trio OH! Gorgeous colours!
Mostly just excited for the msf repromotes. The other stuff is pretty but i’m not like omg i need to buy that. gonna buy petticoat and maybe by candlelight
Do you know if this collection can be pre-ordered?
Not sure – call your local store!
I pre-ordered a Stereo Rose at Nordstrom’s, here in LA. I CAN’T WAIT!
Hey i have a question!
so im planning on getting this online
but i dont want to miss out on stereo rose
is the first day its going to be available online the day its going to be in stores?
Tuesday usually!
will it release online the same date it will be released in stores??
It should be online on the Tuesday before, possibly the Monday afternoon.
Will there be pre-order? I know that Stereo Rose and Petticoat will sell out quick!
You can check with your local Nordstrom/Macys – they might!
ty!
Myfriend forwarded over this swatch site for the In The Groove Collection. Thanks to specktra.net for it. I still want to wait to see what Christine thinks though, but in themeantime: http://www.specktra.net/forum/f217/mac-groove-july-10-a-162294/
loving all the lipsticks/lipglosses, stereo rose and band of roses blush so far.
I can’t help bragging. Today, the entire In the groove collection (except Stereo Rose and Petticoat) has arrived at the Mac counter near me and starts selling tomorrow. I went in and looked at all of them. The eyeshadows are simply beautiful and its texture different from the previous mineralize eyeshadows. It is finer and I believe there will be minimal fallouts. I already reserved 3 eyeshadows, one blush and one cremesheen glass. I congratulate myself for having such great self control.
Loving the lipstick swatches!!!! I am dying to get the purple lipstick even though it looks like there is sparkley stuff in it & I don’t do sparkley. I can’t really tell if any of the other liptsticks have that kind of sparkle in them. I’m wondering if it’s the paper that the swatch is on and that it’s not really that way. I just want a great purple lipstick that isn’t too dark or too light. Maybe MAC will make a purple similar to this color in an amplified for those of us who just love more coverage & the color purple.
Christine, how come some websites already have swatches posted? Did the collection already come out in other parts of the states? I’m waiting for you and your review before I go all crazy with buying up everything I want.
As far as I know, it has not launched in the U.S. yet.
def getting stereo rose, petticoat, and by candlelight. i need swatches of the other things to decide if im gonna get them, so excited for the msfs! omg!
Does anyone know if Nordstrom gets new MAC collections on the release date, so for July 8? I really want an MSF and I know they are going to sell out soon so I’m hoping to grab one while I can. The closest place that sells MAC by me is a Nordstrom counter. Hope you can help, thanks!
Yes, they should 🙂
Thanks!
I definitely want the By Candlelight MSF. I also really like the mineralized eyeshadows. I wonder how Go For It lipstick looks on the lips.
Can’t wait for this release!
Oooohhhh…… I love everything mineral and everything neutral! All of the non-crazy colors are on my list! (Which is a lot.) Purple lipstick? Green cremesheen??? Yucko!! This is MAC, though and some of you ladies are pretty excited about the non-conventional colors!! So yay for that! I collect every nude, pink and brown shade of everything so I’m saving up my lunch money!!! And eagerly awaiting this collection!
christine,
do u have any idea if this will launch early online? like “to the beach”. i remember there was a special code or something that ppl entered to purchase it early… i really want to purchase the msfs :)))))
oh and that purple lippie lol
MAC collections usually come online the Tuesday before it launches – so it would be July 6th. There have been some rumors about it launching a week early, so it would be possibly online tomorrow.
what!?!?! lol
Check out some more swatches from the In the Groove collection. Awesome! Special thanks to Karlasugar website for these.
http://karlasugar.net/2010/06/mac-in-the-groove/
I definitely want that purple lippie it looks amazing and just the perfect color that i’ve dreamt of. As well as the blushes shadeows and stereo rose msf.
for everyone freaking out about stereo rose, I just want to tell those of you who don’t already know, its not the same as the original. Its lighter and peachier and swatches differently.
I have heard the opposite… Have you swatched it?
I never tried the Skinfinishes but I think Stereo Rose & Petticoat are pretty. WOuld u guys recommend this? I’m shade NW50.
I am very fair, and I have got Petticoat and I do recommend it, I was not sure but then I tried it on and I was in love
Oh for goodness sake MAC. Put this collection up on your website already. I’ve been checking all day with hopes & dreams that it would be available early. I want just about everything from this collection.
When will be see the items listed for the Tartan Tale collection? As a part Sccot, I am uberexcited about that collection. I also want to see the photos of the Fabulous Cat collection already.
yeeeaaaa this collection is out tomorrow in uk, cannot wait To get some lipsticks!
What?!?! Roberta, I am sooooooooooo jealous of you right now. I thought it was coming out later for international sales? You guys are getting it before us in the USA. Not fair! just joking. Please let us know what you decide to buy and how you like the stuff. I keep checking the website but nothing so far. I’m really bummed. 🙁
Is this going to be at all free standing MAC stores?
Yes, Sara!
I am from Taiwan (Asia). This collection launched here on June 24. I went in the store on the 23rd to look at the samples and reserved some products for myself. I finally went in again yesterday to pick up my purchase. I would have preferred to wait until temptalia’s review come out. But, just as I predicted, when I went in yesterday, most of the colors were already gone. If it is a consolation to you all, Stereo rose and Petticoat did not come to my country. I already gave up on those two (my wallet says thanks). Maybe they will not come until July 8th, and I will still have a chance to make their acquaintance?
I’m glad you were able to get your goodies before they were gone, though — sorry I couldn’t give you a review beforehand, unfortunately! 🙁
In the Groove is available at the UK site now 🙂
Really pretty lipsticks I think and cremesheen glasses as well. I hope it will be available in Denmark 😀
WTF?! How come it isn’t released in the states yet?
If anyone from the UK or elsewhere buys that purple lipstick please let us know how it is. I’m dying to get it so bad. Thanks.
Hi! I was wondering if people in the range of NC25 use Petticoat as a blush or mainly as a highlight… I already have Rose Diamond and Amber Diamond and mainly use those as my highlight. Is Petticoat worth buying?
More as a blush, I’d say.
Hi there, I’m loving the MSFs and would LOVE to get Stereo Rose, Comfort and By Cendlelight!!!!! I’ve just been given soft & gentle by a friend (my first MAC product) and I think I’m starting to loving the brand. I just discovered your site (loving it btw)and was wondering if somebody out there could get those MSFs for me (just a shout out). I’m from Tahiti and we don’t have MAC here.
@Christine: I’m sorry for this comment. Please feel free to delete it if it’s not appropriate. Thank you

Yay! It was available yesterday at the department store near my house. I have bought Love to Love and In the Groove and I love them, such lovely shades and colours that I can use a lot. I was curious about Petticoat and Stereo Rose after hearing so much about them. I have got Petticoat but I am saving for trying my luck to see if there is still a Stereo Rose tomorrow…both are unique and amazing!!!
You know. I am so upset the this collection is out in the uk and not here in the US. Then I keep checking the mac website and it’s not even up yet. SO unfair!! I wanted it out early so I could order & receive in time for my birthday. Want that purple l/s soo bad. Any reviews of the items from our fellow uk’ers? please please hurry up mac and get this up on your site this weekend.
hi christine! Do you know if the collection is going to hit nordstrom or just the mac stores on July 8th?
It should launch at all U.S. and Canadian locations on the 8th.
Would Stereo Rose be OK and not clownish on a fairer skin tone. My skin is naturally fair but it has gotten tanner from this summer. I also love By Candlelight, is it too frosty though?
I think By Candlelight should be just right — just go easy 🙂
And I don’t think Stereo Rose would be clownish.
I just made my reservation for All Styled Up, I Like It Like That, Stereo Rose MSF, and Petticoat MSF. I’m so glad I reserved for To the Beach because now you can’t get Marine Life anywhere! Now I know to reserve for these collections, especially the ones with MSF’s and pretty packaging haha
just to let you know Stereo Rose is now sold out in the uk after launching on the first.
my amazing mac store actually pulled what I wanted and put it on hold for me today, can’t pay for it until thursday but at least I won’t miss out on stereo rose like I almost did on marine life, took me forever to find it LOL I already have by candlelight and it’s so beautiful
I’m so happy By Candlelight is being repromoted (what seems like) so soon! Definitely not passing on it this time around. Other than that I’m excited for Jazzed.. out skintones are really similar and it looks great with your coloring!
ahhhh soooo excited!!
This collection is AMAZING! I wish I had a TON of money to buy it all! I am a MSF fanatic! I am getting Petticoat (i am so excited for this) Stereo Rose (i have seen swatches of this and it is GORE-JUS) and last but not least By Candlelight (just stunning)
I must say I am a HUGE fan of cremesheens but darn it they dont last on the lips too long. I do love them but I like the MSFs better so I am not getting any cremesheens this time maybe if there are some left over in a week and they dont go as fast as the MSFs I will get some next pay! This collection will sure break the bank for MANY people! I hear of people spending 100 or more on Stereo Rose and that is INSANE! I saw it at a CCO! I cant stand how people go buy 5 of these and then sell them first it makes the people or really want it not be able to and then trying to sell it for triple the price come on people thats just not cool! I just wait for things to re-release even if it takes years! It reminds me of the non sense with the Urban Decay Alice and Wonderland palette! I saw people buying 10 of them at a time and guess what when it was my turn to get one they were sold out! Talk about PISSED off! THen I went on ebay thinking I could get one for 70 bucks which wasnt bad but NO 200-300 HELL NO!
So yeah anyways GREAT COLLETION keep your eyes peeled for the release cause MAC has been tricky and releasing things wayyyy early then people are missing out! CHECK THE SITE!!
do you have a swatch of saint germain next to all styled up? 🙂 im debating on which one i should buy
Not at this time, sorry! Saint Germain is much lighter than All Styled Up – more like Snob or VG Gaga.
I just ordered this from this collection. It’s up on the website now. Woop woop. I am ordering the purple lipstick and one of the pinks. I don’t like the other colors. Can’t wait to receive my order.
I placed my order early this morning. I decided to only get two of the lispticks though(Go for it & I like it like that). I really don’t have the money to buy too much this time around. Waiting for the Fabulous Feline collection to buy more. 🙂
Unbeliveable! It wasn’t on-line last night; this morning it was and Stereo Rose is already sold out! They KNEW there would be a high demand and look at that. SAME deal when Marine Life came out. I’m getting SO upset with this company and wish I could voice my opinion to them. (As if a corporation would care.) I hate Marketing!
Dupes anyone?
To play devil’s advocate: We have no idea how many they sold, though. They could have sold through 100,000 Stereo Roses. Did they deliberately keep supply low? I have no idea. But hot items sell out quickly, even when quantity seems high.
Hmmm, wish there was a place we could look up and see how many quantities were made. That would appease me somewhat. 😉 Thank you for your response!
Prolly all top-secret info, you know! Hush hush! LOL!
Nordstroms will have the stereo rose in one of those face/looks in the box deals. I do not have the date but it’s on this website. It’s under that Digi-pop collection that they are getting some time this month or next month. I saw it yesterday so, if I can’t get stereo rose now, I’ll just buy the look in the box and get it. Good luck ladies!
No, it’s not coming out with the Digi-Pops Look in the Boxes… http://www.temptalia.com/mac-digi-pops-collection-nordstrom-exclusive-for-summer-2010
hmm is by candlelight a bit too light for NC35?
It would be a highlighter on NC35.
This is crazy. Stereo rose already gone?! Wouldn’t they make MORE money if they stocked this appropriately?! a good product is a good product regardless of hype!
Oh, I need to save to get some items! Love the colors of this collection…very fun!!
OMG!! Stereo Rose is already Sold Out on the Canadian website!!!
Has anyone bought the pink and purple lipsticks from this collection yet? Please let me know. I want to buy all three but am scared if they don’t look right. I was going for jazzed but they are sold out now on the website and the store near me doesn’t have anymore. The person behind the counter said she doesn’t think they will get anymore in.
Hey Christine, I just read that MAC had came out with a blueberry colored lipstick. Do you know when that was? It must have been before I got so caught up with their collections? I’m wondering what it looks like. Thanks.
I believe it came out with C-Shock — I am blanking on the name though.
I just received my “Go for it” purple lipstick. I LOVE it!!! Just what I have been wanting. I would have preferred an amplified finish to be honest because the color is amazing and when it’s a cremesheen on my lips, it appears a little lighter than I like. Two thumbs up for this color. 🙂
LOVE THE GO FOR IT PURPLE LIPSTICK!!!! IT’S PERFECT!!!! I do wish it were in an amplified finish though. Maybe next time. Christine, would you know of a dupe in the drugstores for this beautiful shade of purple lipstick? THANKS AHEAD OF TIME.
Maybe Milani!
Jazzed lipstick is back on the mac website as of Sunday, July 25!
