The packaging is beautiful but the prices are crazy! The quality of the products better be flawless!
Totally agree! I collect pieces from lines with LE packaging and the early promos made me covet this so hard. Now, after seeing more detailed photos along with the prices . . . I think I’m safe to pass this up.
My thoughts exactly!
The Cinder eyeshadow duo looks interesting, but in reality, very little here I don’t already have in spades.. The packaging, at least in the photographs, does not appeal to me.
Wendy, I sort of chuckled reading your post. I actually like the look of the packaging but I was thinking that anyone who isn’t “au courant” with makeup might see a case with “Prabal Gurung” on it and wonder if inside there was some sort of exotic contraceptive device or sex toy!!!
Really? …scratches head… I must be really innocent, for I don’t see anything weird.
maybe there is..which is why it is reflected in the prices.. 😀
Oooooohh I think I really want to at least swatch Ultramarine Pink lipstick, Light English Red lipglass, and Cinder eyeshadow duo!! 😀
Ultramarine Pink looks intriguing, but there’s no way I’m paying $30 for a MAC lipstick trying to pass itself off as YSL.
No. I looked through it and my first thought was “not another MAC collection” (and I love MAC). Then I thought “wow, yes”. Then I saw the prices and was back at “no way”.
Nothing here I don’t already have.
I had the exact same thoughts and feelings about this collection. Of course the purples intrigued me, the packaging does not appeal to me, neither do the prices, I can only imagine what this will translate to in CND, so… Just no.
I also vote no! I like the packaging & think it’s gorgeous. It’s calling my name! But the prices really overdid it for me, and I’m in Canada. It’s just not worth it for MAC…
Nice packaging (compare this to Rocky Horror) but my, how they’ve jacked up the prices to cover the cost of the nicer packaging. This is the sort of stuff, though, that I would love to see be made “refillable” (at least the compacts and the lipsticks)
Mac really amped up the price! Hope they did the same with the quality.
Love the photo… But none of the iteams drives me insane. Also, too much gold.
The packaging is absolutely stunning for this collection. It will be gone in an instant!
I do like my MAC lipsticks but I don’t want to pay $30 for them. Especially a Lustre finish.
I agree 100%. A $30 lustre? Pass.
The packaging is lovely. Is it plastic or metal? For the price point, I hope it is metal!
Yeah it better be metal at these prices.
Satin Ochre about the only thing I’m interested in but I though it was a blush/highlighter duo. lol
Yeah, I read an article on this collection somewhere and the packaging is metal (hence the price!, Lol)
At least it is metal! It reminds me of the MAC Royal Assets 2007 collection. That collection was metal and gorgeous (and less expensive).
That’s some jaw-dropping-tom-ford-pricing on the bronzer and cream colour base!
I really thought this collection would more up my alley, but… Guess not.
What the hell is a beige red? You mean pink, MAC. Get out of here with that pretentious tripe. The packaging is live – more Dior than Gurung, though – but the products themselves are kind of a let down. Who here doesn’t own plenty of neutral eyeshadows or red lipsticks as is?
dare I ask, pro discount? haha
Pretty packaging, but too spendy. I like the lip colors, especially that violet. (Red beige, though? Oh, brother. Call it nude pink and be done with it.) I do find it a bit weird they went red and violet on the lipsticks, but coral on the cream base and eyeshadow. I also think that blonde model looks like she’s possessed, though I love her lips.
Love the gold packaging and colors, but the prices are making me wince
$30 for MAC lipstick and lipglass? Absolutely not. I hope this collection doesn’t sell well, and that it encourages MAC to make their products better/more consistent and/or to lower their prices. Fancy packaging does not trump quality in my eyes.
Oh, the prices! Maybe they’ve used real gold????
I like the look of the Carmine and the Ultramarine pink lip colours a lot, but I don’t think I’d be willing to part with such a lot of money for any of them.
I do hope you’ll get to review this LE Christine, I would like to see the grades for all of these products.
for those prices, those products would all have to be A+ grades. i felt my eyes bug out when i saw those prices!
whow. My heart just skipped a beat when I saw their price point
i really don’t like this packaging… probably it’s just me…
Beautiful packaging, but the eyeshadows look very, very dupable to me. Sorry MAC.
I srsly love the gold packaging! My eyes are on you!!!!
I vote Prabal gets his own beauty line instead of trying to luxury-up MAC to be YSL. Yes, the packaging is gorgeous – but no, I’m not willing to buy a MAC product in ysl packaging. What a rip!
The prices are turning me off, way off.
while I like the packaging and I like MAC lipsticks but with this price and this normal colors I better bought Nars Audacius or Bite lipsticks or YSL!
I may need to swatch the red lipglass… but the prices ouch!
… *shrug*. The colour selection doesn’t look very thrilling in the pictures (not *bad*, just…well, it’s neutrals and a red lipstick, mostly. *stifles yawn*). Funnily enough, the packaging I like best is the pencils – I used to collect sparkly pencils when I was a kid, so maybe that’s creating a bias, LOL!
Of course, if something turns out to be wonderful, that’s always worth celebrating. But at the moment, my heart rate is staying pretty stable 😉
Lipsticks- yes! Price- dont really mind!
I love the packaging but with those prices the quality needs to be great. If the quality isn’t great I’ll be skipping this collection.
My goodness, the packaging is just amazing! I might have to get at least one of the items in this collection…
Ha ha ha! Who do MAC think it is? Tom Ford? Estée Lauder? Surratt? Suqqu? Gucci? For those prices, I am going for YSL, Dior, Guerlain or some Japanese brands…or even some gaudy, glitter makeup from Urban Decay which I adored.
I have about 40,000 matte reds. Do I really need one that’s the same quality as a $16 MAC matte red for $30 because it has a fancy container?
I like the way the pink lipstick and the pink & fuschia lipgloss look.. but WHOA I know it’s a special collection but the price! Are they really trying to charge $70/84 for a cream color base..?
errr $70 for a ccb? meh.
The packaging is gorgeous, but the products itself aren’t worth it to me. I can’t justify spending $30 just for nicer packaging for a lipstick, when you can purchase a regular MAC lipstick for like $18.
Beautiful looking collection surprised by the prices though! Now everyone can feel what Australians and New Zealanders feel when purchasing mac here as its $36 for a permanent lipstick…. I can only imagine how expensive this will be for us 🙁
About those prices, Mac makes a check if customers will bite the bullet…
I actually do not mind the packaging – as long as it is metall-ish, and not plastic as in the Brooke Shields’ collection, which I was a bit disappointed with.
I was excited for the bronzer and lipsticks, but oh my – $70 for powder! I do hope they get good ratings from you, Christine!
The description of “Beige red” confuses me — it looks like a peachy pink? It’s totally overpriced, but I’m ashamed to say I love the packaging and am tempted by the red and pink lipsticks.
No, no, no. They’re basically charging the extra money just for the packaging, wish they improved product quality.
I guess I’m the only makeup nutt job on here (but I guarantee this still sells out even at these prices) but I will be blowing at least $300 on this collection…all three lipsticks, the bronzer, one trio and the brush for sure. If it wasn’t metal it would be a total pass, but I am obsessed with gold packaging. This packaging I can justify the price unlike most highend brands all plastic rip off. Just like Mac has released that new face powder in that space age black (plastic) package for $60 – no way!! Makeup prices are always on the rise. Buy or don’t because someone else will!! I do wish I lived by a CCO for this collection but who am I kidding even if I lived next door I wouldn’t be able to wait or risk it. I have literally been waiting over six months for this collection to be released. I haven’t been this excited with Mac since the alluring aquatic collection.
I’m rationalizing the CCB purchase more and more. Honestly the gold is calling my name! It is luxe… And even though the prices are crazy, I’m will you – these will sell out
Meh, the collection doesn’t excite me. It’s overhyped because of the luxurious packaging. I wish they had more range. If they came out with more lipstick colours that would have been awesome. It’s just more expensive because of the packaging. I don’t think the bronzer is worth almost 90 dollars CND (I live in Canada). The bronzer and lipstick would be what I would want from the collection. The rest… meh. I’ll give this a pass. Although the packaging is BEAUTIFUL!
