yes! even Chanel Iman looks pale! I'm a warm-colours-person, but I would love something pale and lilac..

[V2LUCKY]

I'm not even gonna pretend I'm all into fashion and know all the designers but I have loved all the designer collabos collections MAC has done.....I'm excited to see what this collection will look like.

Ohhh sounds pretty!...Probably more up my alley than the dark colors of cult of cherry...but I'll still have to see swatches...hope theyre not chalky pastels! It also said that the colors will be more transparent so people wont be worried about overdoing it...hmm i wonder about the color payoff?

[AudreyNicole]

Looks like I may be skipping out on the Shadowy Lady Quad with Cult of Cherry if these colors float my boat like I hope they will

I'm thinking that the color payoff is going to be not so good, transparent being the key word here. If they're lustres, then double bleh.

i think SMMY was talking about eyeshadows, but lipsticks.

but yah, i hate glaze lipsticks too

can you imagine if all the eyeshadows are veluxe and lipsticks glaze? yuck!

[Krasevayadancer]

There was a display behind them, can we zoom in maybe?

[KikiB]

Oooh pale blues and lilacs...I am loving this. I couldn't really tell by anything but this could either really rock, or really stink. I hope for the former SO badly.

i have a feeling that this will be just like mcqueen, and will also be released at stores as well. just not macy's damnit!

it looks like a chic collection, maybe with the perfect gray? and with a light coppery-pink lipstick? I would love some pastels, like getting the Dance-collection all over again!

OMG i can totally see these colors together on the eye! but i think it would've been better as a spring collection. i know its his fall collection, but there remind me more of winter-into-spring colors.

same here. the metal-x colors were awesome, but the formula was awful!

[darkishstar]

BLEH.
Pastel colors? Defo-pass. Pastels don't work on me.

[christineeee_]

i'm gonna wait for swatches before i decide..

[Susanne]

Pastels? Not really what I like. But we will see! Blues, pinks and lilacs would be good.

I agree. Not at all what I have in mind for my fall style.

[TamEva Le Fay]

“[Cortazar] was after something earthy, so I was inspired by a softer palette of delicate shades of pinks, blues and lilacs,” said Dowsett, referencing Monet’s “Water Lilies.” “It’s a colorful collection but very transparent so you don’t have to worry about overdoing it.”



"Worry about overdoing it?" Who...me, worry?

She's joking...right? She's joking! She's gotta be joking?!?

already??

[JustDivine]

Well in the picture released on one of those sites along with info about the launch, you can see the products on stands in the background so obviously they are in some ppl's hands already....LOL

[Winthrop44]

I'm looking forward to checking out this one. I can sometimes get into pastels and sheers depending on the specific shades, so we'll see.

[newagetomatoz]

I'm really hoping there is a color coming out with this collection similar to Smudged Violet from the Cult of Cherry quad, because that is the only color I want from it and it hardly seems enough to justify the entire quad.
