Many of these look positively fantastic for this time of year. My faves have to be: Beatrix, Velvet Rebellion and Modern Temptress. Probably not anything I need, as I’ve got UD Troublemaker and Disturbed. But my thoughts could change depending on your reviews and dupe list.
Still disappointed that a fair amount of them aren’t as dark on as they appear in the tube, but surprisingly, Gwendolyn still manages to look cute.
Not sure if it’s justified for me to get Winifred when it looks close to CP Pack Pack? Does the fine shimmer make Winifred unique enough, Christine?

It changes more of the general feel and subtle sheen of it but I don’t think it really shows up as a “shimmery” finish in person, and like all lipsticks, it’ll wear down to pretty matte within a few hours!
They did a whole range just for me! Kidding. These are all phenomenally gorgeous. But, wow, did they ever channel my preferences!
These shades are my favourites too!
No, they did this range for *me*, LOL! There isn’t one shade in this range I wouldn’t wear. That said, my experience with MAC lipstick isn’t a good one, but since this isn’t a formula I’ve tried, I may just have to grab one to try, especially since I can B2M for a couple. Now, to decide which ones…
OMG – these look fantastic! Love Temptress, Rebellion and Victorian the best. The swatches look pretty good too.
Winifred looks soooo nice! Definitely gonna pick that one up, because I don’t have anything like it. Also LOVING five others shades (Powerhouse, Midnight Breeze, Beatrix, Modern Tempress and Velvet Rebellion) but I know I have similar colors in my stash and don’t wear those often anyway. Vamps are so lovely but also so overpowering and since lipstick is the last thing in my routine I usually opt for a nude lippie or even lipbalm instead. Hope I can resist them because I always end up buying these kinda colors lol.
Geez these all look so beautiful!!! How am I supposed to decide?!!! Can’t wait for your review Christine!!!!
This is a perfect example of why we need Temptalia. First look at 9 “almost black” lipsticks 🙂 the suspense would drive me crazy lol

Vicorian, Gwendolyn and Winifirid are going to be mine. I dont own many darker lipsticks
I can’t believe I’m saying this, but none of these shades appeal to me. While they’re all beautiful, I don’t think there are any shades here that would look good on me. 🙁
These look good, surprised they are all purples and browns. I do like Temptress!
Any idea when / if these will be released in the UK? I’ve googled and can’t find anything 🙁
I don’t!
They are available on the Mac UK website now. I’m waiting for them to be launched in Debenhams so I can get 10% off and maybe use some discount vouchers too.
