Round-up: MAC x Mia Moretti Collection Overview & Thoughts Reviews Contains: Sample 3/23/15March 23, 2015 MAC x Mia Moretti is collaboration collection that launches March 26th online (North America) and in select stores on April 2nd (North America) with select international stores to receive sometime in April 2015. I liked the concept of the lip palette, but the execution left something to be desired for a few of the shades. The Casual Colours work best as cheek colors, rather than lip colors, as they are drying when worn on the lips, but if you only intended to use them on the cheeks, they’re worth a peek. The best product is Maria Moretti Lipstick (A), which is a lovely shade of red, but it is very dupable.Report CardMaria Moretti Lipstick (A)Puttin’ on the Spritz Casual Colour (B+)P.S.

Kiss & Make-up Light-Medium, Yellow undertones. Very Oily skin. »Despite not getting an A I still have my eyes set on Puttin’ On The Spritz.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Hopefully it works well for you! Will you be using it on cheeks and lips?
Nicole Light-Medium, Yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »If this collection would have been well done, it could have redeemed Mac’s online only status for me. I’m going to just pass. Such a shame though..perfect for summer colors and concepts! I do love the red lipstick and thought about just seeing if it may be there to get. But, I thing Garconne by Guerlain took my fave red spot. May be tough to top, 🙂
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Garconne is a fantastic red!
jilly Light, Yellow undertones. Combination skin. »Meh. Maybe summer wind, but I won’t cry if I miss anything here. Thanks for working so quickly, Christine! Saved me some $$ I can spend on other things 🙂
fancie Deep Dark, Neutral, slight pink undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »For some reason, the more I see the lip palette the more I want it. The colors are so cute!
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »They are a cool concept!
Nancy TWell, I was all set to pick up Summer Wind and Maria Moretti l/s on the 2nd, so I called the 2 MAC stores nearest to me, asked them if they would have it on the 2nd or a different day, both SA’s claimed that it wasn’t going to be in stores in the U.S , called MAC Corp., who told me that YES, it will be in US stores and counters. Call me confused! On the off chance that I cannot get Maria Moretti lipstick, curious to know whether Maybelline Color Sensational in Very Cherry is a dupe, because I do have that one?
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I think Very Cherry is a lot more matte and probably a bit darker/bluer based 🙂
Nancy TThank you for that info! In that case, I will try to chase Maria Moretti lipstick down. I have a feeling that the two SA’s are wrong, and that the MAC C.S. rep. is right. Too bad they’re not all on the same page! Crazy!
Helene Fair, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Combination skin. »The only thing I would think of buying is the red lipstick, but I have loads of reds already so I guess this is a pass for me. The palette has some interesting fun colours, but they are to pastelly for me.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »It is a lovely red, but so many of us have so many beautiful ones already!
karlai very badly want the lip palette but MAC in Ireland are so messy about getting collections to stores 🙁
