OMG amazing and gorgeous collection! I can’t wait to see the lipsticks and eyeshadows swatches!
I love the marketing on this collection! Why didn’t someone think of it before….of course….sappy romance….so fun! The collection is huge however. Hopefully, you review these before the release (and MAC sends them to you) so that we can have some guidance. Not possible to just buy it all!
This concept is hilarious! Very cheeky and the colours look gorgeous. I will have to keep an eye on the pink lipsticks, the pinky/blue quad and the blushes!
ohhhhhh I can’t wait for the reviews!
Exciting! I love the names!! Looking forward to swatches
aiin que lindo quero tudo rsrs amei essa coleção!!! muitooo amorrr!!!
Omg…the pictures are hilarious!
2 palettes are calling my name…the firs and the third one of course….
ME TOOOOOOO!!!!!
I agree about the photos and the whole concept. Not since A Tartan Tale has the “imaginative-ness” of a collection grabbed me (separate from the products themselves, it’s more the image and the concept and fun of it)
Noo, why isn’t the packaging special? The idea of the collection is so unique!
Wow – those promo photos are cringey!
The quads look great though 🙂
I think cringey is the whole point 😛 (have you seen harlequin romance novel covers!)
Where is Fabio?!
Exactly what I was thinking!!!! They should have used Fabio!!
The colours seem promising but the ads are probably among the tackiest MAC has ever come up with.
I love the colors in this collection. The lipglasses look beautiful. Hopefully the quality of the eyeshadows won’t be disappointing.
Oh I am keeping my fingers crossed for the eyeshadow quads! Let’s hope the quality doesn’t disappoint. Also, Fabio anyone?
LOL
I really love the look of this! Can’t wait to see swatches!
The first and third eye quads are TDF!!!!!!!! And the liners!! UGH I hope I hate it all in person LOL!!! I have that MU4E palette on my radar, can’t get everything!!
OOoohhhhh, so looking forward to this!!!! Ilove MAC Fall collections. I want at least two quads, the blushes, lots of lipstick…
That marketing is fantastic! I believe the Romance genre is the most profitable genre in books, so this will go fast! I’m definitely going to pinch my pennies for this stuff! Squee!!
Needs more Fabio. At least one product named Fabio.
bwah ha ha ha ha ha ha!!!!
soo.. which quad comes with the dude.. then i will get that one! win win situation!..
Haha!
Saw this collection in person yesterday. The palettes left me cold. Lipsticks and glosses are pretty.
Shadow singles are very, very shimmery/sparkly in person. The blue color is the most gorgeous in person.
that’s just what I was hoping for with the shadows. I’ve never seen anything that was too shiny, shimmery or sparkly for me!
Is this coming to Europe aswell or just USA? Cause i finally fall in love with some new MAC lipsticks and of course it would be just my luck if i can’t even get my hands on them
As far as I know, it will be launching everywhere!
Today the collection is launched and I went crazy adding each Item once to cart to check how much it adds up to…..A whooping $780 excluding taxes :(…..
I was so thinking about skipping this collection but the more swatches I see the more I like lol. I can’t wait to see your swatches and reviews!
Love this theme, haha! I can’t wait to try the Fluidline Eye Pencils!
I need the warm colors from this collection! Gorgeous!!!
I have enough Mac products to last me the rest of my life, but this is so over the top tacky that I will have to check it out!
Yes, tacky…..like back in those days….
Harlequin romance books anyone?
The colors of the palettes in this collection are gorgeous, especially the last one with the pinky purples and peacock green shades… too bad if recent performance is an indicator they’ll probably be dry and lack pigmentation like all of MAC’s palettes over the last few years… I do love the sort of tongue in cheek over the top promtional image and theme for this… Hoping this one is a winner!
Oh man, my BFF is not a big makeup person, but I’ve got to show her this collection. She’s a romance novel fanatic (the cheesier, the better!), and she’s going to get a kick out of the theme.
Wow, usually MAC collections don’t wow me, but this one looks awesome! I love the promo material too. XD
I like the shade in this collection but nothing screams out to me as a must have. I’m interested in the Fluidline Eye Pencil though!
The promo image is brilliant! Made me laugh 🙂
I can’t even look at the makeup those promo images are too freakin hilarious omg!!
I am definitely interested in a few of the items.. I’m usually not enthusiastic about MAC quads, but I like the colour combos in all. I want to get a warmer deeper red lipstick for fall since it’s an area not covered well already in my stash.. I’ve been sidetracked on a berry buying binge lately. Looks like I will find something to love in this collection…assuming decent ratings, well duh 😉
This theme is hilarious. I like that it’s silly and so overdone.
I almost want a promotional booklet more than the actual products… Ioving the Fabio shots haha.
Having said that, I ADORE that purple based quad… even though I already have brazenly.
I’m loving the hilarious promo images! Way to have a sense of humor, MAC! I like the colors in this collection, so I can’t wait for your reviews either.
OMG, I can’t believe this. I AM A ROMANCE WRITER (at least a few of my novels are romance), I need this collection so badly ajaja :D. The bad news? It will never come to Argentina, buh :(.
A collection with multiple eyeshadow palettes. Be still my heart.
Hilarious! They really hit the nail on the head with those graphics, really reminds be of the Romance Novels oh so popular in the 80’s, lol. 🙂
Wow, I might have to buy something from MAC for the first time since December 🙂
I love the cheesy factor of the photos! Love that they can make fun of romance novels. Where is Fabio when you need him?
Pro discount? I’m crossing my fingers!
I am SOOOO anxious to see these IRL! The single pot eye shadows are especially intriguing, and those purple-toned lipsticks need to be mine!
Ok 2 things:
Holy Christ… is it just me or does this bloke look like our Lord and Savior.
Is this based on the Outlander series my mother won’t shut up about?
I was wondering if, in addtion to spoofing the Harlequins, the people at MAC thought it might have a subtle tie in with the Outlander movie that is supposed to be coming out soon (there is tartan in one of the photos! And heather and a sailing ship in others….
Oh the art! LMAO! The colors are nice…seems like a good transition into Fall colors.
Hahaha, love the promo of this collection. At least one of the quads will be mine… I hope so.
Hahah, they knew what they were doing putting that photo with that collection.
Loving the nail polish in this collection. Can’t wait to hear more about this one.
From just looking at the products, I want them all! I love the idea of this collection, I love the adds. I never read romance novels, I have read a few, years ago, and the photos are so on spot. I love this, but I can see how others might really dislike it.
I hope the products are as good as they look, and I will go rob a bank 😉 No not really, I promise 😀
The MAC Lip Glass shades are my favorite in A Novel Romance collection- The Campaign is very romantic indeed!
From past collection releases does anyone know what time the new collections are available online the day it’s released? I’ll be on vacation (in Pacific time) on the 14th and I don’t want to miss out lol Thanks everyone!
did u find out the times??
I Love the promo pictures – such brilliant concept! The guy reminds me of someone from Game of Thrones, the one the “dragon lady” is married to (not too familiar with the character names, sorry!)
Drogo 😀 *swoooon*
Does anyone know what time this will be release online? I only know its tomorrow but what time :(((
Some very pretty colours in this collection
I like the imagery…. Does anyone know who that male model is?
What happened to novel romance dark deep plum lipstick and lipglass
