Thanks
I've seen other pics at another site and I think that the outer packaging is cuter than the products packaging hmm maybe coz of the color,,the white color. if they made the products collectors white instead of black
I really like the outer packaging

Ya know, to be completely honest, when I first heard of the collection and pictures first came out, I was in love with it. I wanted nearly all the lippies and the irridescent powders. But now that I have had time to digest it, I think I'm less enthused than before. I have a bunch of MSFs and highlighters already, and I have two bright pink lippies. Three of the colors of the lipsticks I know that I will never do more than swatch once. Plus, while I love wearing lipstick (moreso than gloss) I always forget to reapply it throughout the day. So, I think my excitement has died down some. But, of course, when swatches appear I will be kicking myself and praying something shows up in the Clearance Bin.

I love Specktra because it keeps me from impluse buying on new collections.


And, this is such a random side note, but I think I already own the 210, well, sort of. I bought a Loew-Cornell (Sorry if I mess up the brandname) brush to use with my pot form eyeliners, and after looking closer at the Fafi promo pics, I have to say the brush head look identical! I feel so ahead of the game. Wow, I so need a life sometimes!

I am getting the 210 brush. Not anything else, I don't like this collection.

[urbanlilyfairy]

Hmh wtb Perky Paint pot ..and the purple one i saw before ..sassed up ..hipped, sugar trance .... hehe ..but now that i see these pics ..compared to the promo ones ...the eye quads look so washed out =/ bummer as I only have one other eye quad was hoping i would get one of these ....but now im not so sure heh

[xStefanie711]

I agree about the quads... I was really looking forward to them
That pink blush looks really cute though... I'm still pretty excited for the release of this collection

[COBI]

This has me thinking that I really need to see them in person first because the same colors look so different in the photos on the different threads.

For example: from http://specktra.net/f285/mac-fafi-photos-yay-87998/ and this thread:
Both are showing "Fashion Frenzy" so now I don't know what it actually looks like because they look like different pinks on my screen.

Versus


AND Both showing "sassed up":

versus



And as mentioned the promo card colors look different than the quads here. I'm sure I'll stock up on some things.

[MsCocoa]

Nothing looks too exciting here, but I may get an irdescent powder (mostly for the artwork).

[purrtykitty]

Hmm, I like that second p/p and the l/gs are pretty, too. I'm still waitin' to see a picture of the purple p/p though!!

[MAC_Whore]

All of the photos, official and amateur images, have seemed dark. I will reserve my judgement until I see the products at my counter.

[oddinary]

Oh, the blushes are brighter than I thought, but it means I'll be saving up for Heatherette Are iridescent powders usually chunkier in texture compared to beauty powders? I've never come across one before.

[Twinkle_Twinkle]

If that coral/reddish blush is too light for me I will be really

agreed

[Weasel]

is hipness blush (coral one) at all similar to desirous?

[Jacq-i]

The quad below reminds me of the Dollymix Quad.

Belightful IPP is in the perm line. I have it and it's not chunky at all, just a really smooth highlight with a tad bit of glitter that's not noticeable on. I love it as a highlighter.

I don't have an beauty powders, so I can't compare to that, but HTH anyway!

[oddinary]

^ I've read some reviews of it on MUA, but they don't seem to positive. :X I never knew it was perm until a while actually - hehe, that's what MAC doesn't it? Too caught up in LE products, no time to check out the perm line!

[thelove4tequila]

Well I'm not really feelin' those quads anymore. Poo. But those Paint Pots look hot. I cannot wait to see this in person. Will Pro stores have it released early? Gawd I hope so!!!
