MAC - Lustre Twins Discussion

[Zantedge]

I'm with everyone else on this... skipping it! Though I will take a look at the nail polishes.

[newagetomatoz]

A definate skip for me. Too complicated for me.

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

The repromoted Laquer will be $$$$$ Yes from Heatherette For MAC. One of the new ones will be a deep Red, and I didn't look at the other shade. =(

For those that like the ProLong Wears these will be give a nice variety to the neglected line. However, for those that dislike the product already, it will just be a waste of time. I'm not a big fan, but my mother LOVES them!

We are having so many repromotes of unpopular colors. That Nail Lacquer, Jardin Aires, Mauvement. It's so silly. They're all pretty but doesn't MAC get it that it's not gonna sell that well??

[soco210]

I'll be skipping this one, I don't like those lacquers... nothing will blow me away for once *phew* that's ok - because starflash shadows are going to break me lol

[erine1881]

$$$$ yes is being repromoted, and the two new shades are:

perplexing-deep blue purple (PERM)
firehouse-bright chrome red (PERM)

HOT HOT HOT! And thank goodness for perm I'm sure I'll pick Firehouse up on the 31st though; red nails are my thing.

Erine, do you have any product names or descriptions for the Longwears coming out with this collection? Just in case any of wanna budget for trying one out? Thanks!

[coachkitten]

Firehouse polish will be mine for sure!

[hr44]

This is one I'm personally skipping but will be taking my mom to check out. She's got this thing for longwear lippies.... so this is right up her ally, especially since she's been recently looking for some.

Since it's usually the first Thursday of every month, that means that Thu 7 Aug instores/counters and Tue 5 Aug online (if they release it two days earlier as they did with previous collections, except this month's).

*I think she means Star Flash, because that's what I asked her about and not "Star Violet"

however, my update book says that lustre twins is north america only. it won't be international.

*~*I am def. skipping this collection...I usually like lip stuff, but these just sound so...boring!!! I will be all over that chrome red polish though!! BTW, I have never used any MAC polishes; I'm normally a Zoya chick all the way!!! Usually, the polish will last about 4-5 days without chipping. How do the MAC polishes hold up (with a base & top coat)??*~*

[kimmy]

i'm stoked for new longwears. i always thought they needed more wearable colours in the line...and now...nom nom nom.

[Moxy]

Have you girls seen the swatches by KarlaSugar? Omg I was sold instantly when i saw ripe and ready/soft and lush swatch on her arm.
If this is N America only... darn it looks like I'll have to turn to ebay for help.

the lipglass in cult of cherry is ripe & rich. close tho.

[panther27]

I am still not interested in these,despite the swatches.Yech,I really don't like longwearing lip stuff.Not impressed.

[Brianne]

I really want to see Ripe & Ready, Gypsy Rose, and Custom Rose in person. I'm looking for a longwear lipstick for my wedding makeup. My mom really likes the prolongwears, I might have to give them a whirl.

[Sanayhs]

The pro longwears actually don't really wear that long on me...

I'd rather stick with my regular lipsticks layered over a cremestick liner and get more moisture out of it.

[aimee]

well im not in love with the current pro longwears because yea longwearing stuff is drying but theyre still much better than the ones from covergirl and maybelline if you ask me
but oh well i dont care about the color gloss i mean i liked the prolongwears because they dont transfer any color to glasses, boyfriends etc. haha
but since theyre going to be released in N. america only i will skip

i do like MACs Nail laquers and would be interested in perplexing
