Oooh. I saw the product images for this collection and it's so sexy. So is the name. I was considering getting a YSL lipstick for the holidays, but I might just change my mind. Can't wait to see more.

i love the packaging for this collection. as i've said many times, i hated last years cheap and tacky look!

i'll be getting a lipstick and the sheer mystery powder compact

[shontay07108]

Right now, I'm only interested in the Baroque Boudoir lipstick. I have to see the glosses in person to see just how sheer they are.

Oh goodness, my # of thanks is at 666!

I'm amused and slightly frightened.

I'll say it again... MAC I am soooooo mad that you didn't make brushes to go with this beautiful packaging!!!

[TeresitaMC]

I LOVE this packaging! I can't wait to see more so I can decide

[sleepyhead]

since everyone's talking about the pictures, i copied them from early buzz thread to the top of the page (pics posted by tinkerbelle2001)

i love the packaging too, but i just wish there's more powder in the mystery powder compact. i'd actually buy it for once if it's not so "over packaged"

you do get a refil though so you actually get two pans which are the same size as a blush. which i don't think is too bad... but maybe i'm crazy!

[Shadowy Lady]

does anyone know the texture of the lipsticks? It says "C" but does that mean Creamsheen or Amplified Cream?

yeah, but i wouldn't mind if they give me more like they did with some of the earlier couture collections

the compact is too big compare to the powder and i bet it's super heavy too. it's just... inconvenient to lug it around, i guess (yes, i am THAT lazy) also, i don't like the look of the rings on the inside. it takes up space and doesn't do anything, just sitting there and looking ugly

i assume it just means cream color, no pearls, no glitters. i think couture collection lipsticks have different texture compare to the regular ones, so they have their own special formula

differnt strokes i guess i really like how heavy it is, mianly because i feel like i have spent my money on something good! tricks of the mind eh?! it looks exactly the same as my hk compact which i really like... the rings are pointless though i will give you that!

That's what I'm thinking..the "c" may be for couture.

I love the packaging and want two l/g for sure!!

[onlylindah]

I want treasured lipstick and d'nouveau lipgloss I think mainly for packaging purposes only because its so much prettier compared to last years packaging. I wish there were brushes too!

[Camnagem]

I love the packaging!

I'll probably pick up D'Nouveau l/g and at least one lipstick. I need swatches to decide, but they all sound pretty!

[GlamQueen21]

I want Treasured l/s, Lap of Luxury, Preciousness and D'nouveau lipglasses! The packaging is gorgeous!! IT IS SO WAY BETTER THAN MONOGRAM'S PACKAGING! Don't you all agree with me?

[omgitzstephanie]

[thewickedstyle]

Sooo pretty...why no brushes?!

I want a lipstick, at least one gloss, and the compact.

It will be my first compact, can anyone tell me about sheer mystery powder? Currently I set my foundation with MSFN.

[Elusive21]

What was last year's collection (just so that I can google the pics) and why is everything in this collection so expensive?
