Betty Boop is so cute, but I wish this had special packaging ^_^ I might still get it anyway, I’ve been into reds lately!
I agree! She is so iconic so how could MAC have missed the opportunity for great packaging and a whole collection? I love Betty Book and will still buy it, but it is a let down.
Will there be other items released in this collection?
This was the entirety of the press release.
I love Betty Boop, and red lipstick, but this was a missed opportunity for special packaging. 🙁
Totally!
Agree!
This is kinda pathetic. Only one item (of an exceptionally common color particularly for MAC who releases like 40 red lipsticks a year) and it doesn’t even have special packaging. :/
YES ! Very dissapointed. Too many red lipsticks.
I am disappointed. I read some comments and agree that this is a huge missed opportunity for MAC. Betty has such a cult following and they could have done something really spectacular in packaging. I don’t need anymore reds so this is a pass for me. I would have purchased if it had been a special color or with different packaging.
You are so right.
I’m disappointed in this release. There isn’t even any special packaging on the bullet. I did see that the lipstick sleeve had a design on it, but that’s still no reason to charge $21 for this when Ruby Woo is $17. MAC just tried it…*major side eye*
My Mom’s “namesake” nickname, but no fun packaging, MAC??? If only. Then I would HAVE to buy this. But just for its name, albeit sentimental and very meaningful, not so sure. Trying to use up what reds I have before they “turn”. But, but, Betty Boop??? ?
What texture does it have? Is it matte? Satin?
Don’t know if I’ll end up wanting this or not. If I do want it, as weird as it is to have plain packaging with this one, I have to say I’m glad it’s not Betty Booped up. I’m not a Betty fan.
I would love this just for sentimental reasons, but I told myself I’d stop doing that! It looks really pretty though!
Does anyone know what the finish of this is? If it’s an Amplified Cream, I’ll be happy; matte – not so much!
I really expected special packaging for this, given how iconic Betty Boop is, and how common red is. I mean, there are a thousand other equally priced reds in varying finishes, formulas and undertones. There doesn’t seem to be much of a marketing drive for this particular lipstick at all, which seems a bit strange. Like why even bother?
The idea of a Betty Boop collection was exciting, but now I think it’s an easy pass.
The color is great (it’s hard to go wrong with red), but I’m not seeing anything special about this release otherwise. I agree with others that it would have been nice to see some creative packaging!
A gorgeous looking red, that’s for sure.
Omg, two of my favorite things brought together, i’m so excited…and the color is absolutely stunning, my fav red for sure…..<3 thank you for sharing Christine…..love from a Portuguese fan of yours.
COME ONE….. I love Betty Boop and since Mac releases 50 reds per yr I would expect this to have special packaging… agh. Is it a one day only thing?
Where’s the Betty Boop packaging????? C’mon MAC, this is ridiculous
my real dream would be if this was like a repeat of how Mariah Carey teamed up with MAC, in that one year they release just 1 lipstick in standard packaging (All That Glitters in 2015), and then next year release a full collection with special packaging. I would be all over that, I LOVE Betty Boop. and they could totally make it as cute and cool a collection as Archie’s Girls and Rocky Horror were. But alas, I shan’t be buying this. a red lipstick in plain packaging. no thanks. what a wasted opportunity.
What’s the point? No Betty Boop packaging. It’s only Betty Boop because Mac says it is. There ain’t nothing Bett Boop about it except that it’s red. I have lots of Betty Boop lipsticks in that case
I hope you’ll get this one to review. If I don’t have a gazillion dupes for it I might just buy it just because it’s Betty Boop.
