MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion

[Karen_B]

I like the sound of cool pigment set and Warm Eyes palette...

[GlamYOURUs]

Meh. Quietly is pretty but it looks like a lighter version of Violet. It also looks like the purple side of my Mi Lady. I think I'll pass.

[darkishstar]

I don't want anything from Little Darlings, thank goodness! I don't need mini lipglasses and stuff. And no Soft Sparkles for me either.

Man... mini paint pots would have so been the stuff.

[addictedtomac85]

does anyone know how much the little darlings lip/lustreglass sets will be?

[GlamYOURUs]

Omg forget pigments, look at these lippiesssssssss

[AudreyNicole]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how they changed the lipglass/lustreglass sets from Warm/Cool to acutal color families - pink, coral, and neutral! I am definately getting the neutral set, and possibly the pink set as well

[Moxy]

All of you who use lustreglasses (any colour) - would you say lustreglass is similar to lipglass (consistency, feeling on the lips..)?

[GlamYOURUs]

First off there's the Neutral Lips set which comprises of two lipsticks, Soft Spot(sheer light neutral pink with gold) and Real Treasure ( a creamy mid-tone brown pink with pearl). there's also the My Dear Lipglass, which is a natural peach beige with pearl).
Then we have the Rose Lips set which has the To Swoon For lippie (sheer mid-tone blue pink) and Romancin' (mid-tone plum with pearl). Accompanying it is the Delicate Crush (clean pastel pink) Lipglass.
Finally, there's the Red Lips set. this has Adore It (bright clear red) and Racy ( a frosty mid-tone burnt red) with the Frostlight Lipglass( clear glaze with white pearl).


Ahhh I want the Rose and maybe the Red lips!!

I LOVE Lustreglass. It is much smoother and less sticky than lipglass. They are sheerer too. They aren't as "non-sticky" as lip gelees, but IMO, obviously less sticky than regular lipglass. They are usually have more sparkle too

[Moxy]

Thank you Audrey I might have to try them now!
I was looking at the ingredients list and comparing it to Lipglasses and there's quite different stuff on the list. I might give it a go - as much as I love the colours and consistency of the lipglasses I've got some kind of allergic reaction to them, that's why I'm a bit scared to use lustreglasses. But if they dont work out for me I can always give them to my sis

I don't have an allergic reaction, but I can not wear lipglass on bare lips. I have to put lipstick under it first, or my lips dry out and crack terribly. I wear my lustreglass alone all the time, with no problems at all. I am on my third tube of Instant Gold!

[Moxy]

Oh I see! Heehee I think I'll get the set for my sis and if lustreglasses give me the same rashes as lipglasses then I'm gonna give the rest of them to her (apart from the tube I'd use of course). Oh I hope they'll be fine, I'm looking at the lustreglass shades online now and most of them seem so wearable and pretty. Instant Gold looks

[LP_x]

Okay, so now I want the smokey eye palette (Fascinating Ruby), the purpley/pinky eye palette(Infatuating Rose), the cool pigments (hello - Quietly anyone?!), two brush sets, the little darling lipgloss set (how cute?!)and... erm... that's all I can think of for now.

PLEASE stop posting pictures. Considering I hardly wanted anything from this collection to begin with, it's costing me a bloody fortune!

[LP_x]

Ooh, and I'll also want some red lipstick/lipglass/dazzleglass.

Same here. I recently got a sample of Quietly and I really don't think it's all that. Maybe cooler toned people would feel differently tho.

[darkishstar]

CRAP CRAP CRAP. I'll be spending about $200 on these collections.
UGH.
Why why why do the palettes look better than last years?! (To me, the smoky and cool are better this year than last year.)
Hopefully we'll get info on the finishes so I can decide better. So far Smoky is a definite for me!
I want to know the lipstick finishes as well. If one of the lippies is going to be a lustre, I'm going to forget the lip set I want. Even though the bag is so freaking cute.. I really just want the bag.

And about $50 from Sheer Minerals. This better be all that I'm spending the rest of the year. I'm skipping so much just for the holiday and Sheer Minerals.

[panther27]

OmgNow my list is:classic palette,cool palette,warm palette,cool pigment set,rose lip bag,5 pink lips set and the 5 coral lip set!And probably a brush set.

Don't feel bad because it looks like I will be spending $200+also lolAnd about 100 between sheer minerals and house of minerals.

[AdlersMommy22]

Mine is just the warm and cool pigment set-- DEF the cool but maybe the warm too-- and i really want that lady danger (is that right??) dazzleglass- SO gorgeous!

[xoleaxo]

i looove lustreglasses.. so much better than lipglass. i agree with audrey that theyre less sticky & more sheer! plus i like the brush instead of the little sponge applicator

[LP_x]

Have you seen these? I'm not sure how to post pictures, but here is the link:

I want the cool pigments set and all of the lipgloss sets

[blinkymei]

oh man, I was just going to stick to the cool pigments and no palette because I don't like the eye shadow colors (though I love the packaging!), but now that I see the little darlings sets, crap, now my list goes like this:
- Cool pigments set
- Neutral lippie set
... I need to see some swatches

[Mixedbeauty]

Im sooo excited!!!
I was invited to the unveiling party in the beginning of Oct. Cant hardly sleep lol...The packaging is to die for...

Thanks for posting this link! Here is the photo found at the link above:

[darkishstar]

The more and more swatches I see.. the more I want.
This is awful. D:

I'm praying that some of these finishes are crap. I know that won't happen with Smoky eyes, but with the cool palette, if there is one lustre in there.. I won't get it. I've learned my lesson. Hahahah. Especially since I wouldn't want to destroy and depot from these palettes, so these colors and finishes better be pretty damn good if I'm paying $36+ for these palettes. And with the lip sets, if there is one lippie that is even a lustre, I won't go for it. There are no words to describe how much I HATE the lustre formula. I want a frost and satin/amplified creme/glaze. Thanks.
