Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
Gah! MAC and your confusion over release dates!! With either date I am still so excited!!
I'm just really unsure about Warmed MSF. I am super pale and I am afraid that it will be too dark on me! I saw swatches of Shooting Star and Global Glow, and I feel like those would have turned up dirty on my face. But that color is so pretty! Maybe after I see swatches I'll make a return trip!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
Hey girls! I received a promo card for the N collection in the mail today! It's so beautiful! It's a translucent triple folded piece of paper with a card enclosed inside.
So here's more pictures, to tide us over while we all wait. =) Sorry if the pictures are kinda crappy. I quickly took pictures of them, rather than scanned it.
Cover of the fold out.

2nd page of the fold out.

Front of the card.

It's hard to read, so I'll type out what it says:
"For the gal who knows the power of artifice, but has the confidence to strip it all away, this is the secret--N. An alluring collection of undertones and stripped-down neutrals, radiantly accented by our new array of M.A.C mineralize skinfinish. The entire collection enhanced by the powerful benefits of charged water.
Available January '08.
Nude, stripped-Down, or delicately neutral...perfection comes through the tips and techniques of a M.A.C artist. Expose yourself to N online or find a store near you at www.maccosmetics.com."
And lastly, the back of the card:
I hope it's not too picture heavy. If it is, I can change them to links or a mod can do that. Thanks. =)
After seeing the promo card, I'm even more excited for this collection than ever!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
Ugh, it's so gorgeous! I'm so glad I got one! I haven't got one since Barbie Loves MAC!!! I think it's because I must've spent so much at the freestanding and counters this winter!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
I just saw on the nordstrom website they are having the in store even for the N collection from Jan 17th -19th, here's the description...
N Collection—A portrait in the nude, daring in its stripped-down sensuality with natural and pearlized shades of Mineralize Skinfinish that play up the nakedness of cheeks, lips, eyes…For a glamazon who knows the power of artifice, but has the confidence and allure to strip it all away. N Collection is naked, with coverage—it'll be our little secret. Custom-created high performance brushes mean that no one need ever know. Seductive, and ripe for scandal. Call your favorite M•A•C counter to book your appointment today.
So I guess its set for the 17th at Nordstrom.

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
My counter got their shipment in today, and I got to be there when they opened them all ... GORGEOUS. Nanogold is definately going to be my new favorite shadow ... and the lipsticks/glosses are pretty close to perfection!
The whole line was gorgeous, and I'm not even a neutral girl! It's coming out the 10th at macy's ... can't wait!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
I was getting matched to foundation this morning and then the MA was trying the Light natural MSF on me. I mentioned maybe I would wait to see the new collection this month for the new naturals. She looked at me and was like "I've never heard of that" and spoke to the other MA on duty and she said there would prob be new ones this summer, but nothing this month. I asked if they knew about Specktra (no) and said that I'm pretty positive this month (I said the 17th) there would be a collection called N. She joked I was crazy. LOL it was slightly akward.
But I like hearing other MAs on here and seeing that mailer---I'm DEFINITELY not nuts! Alas I didn't buy it and will check out the collection this month!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
I e-mailed MAC about charged waters being in this collection and got this response...
Hi Kristal:
Thank you for taking the time to email us at M·A·C Cosmetics Online.
I am happy to help!
The N COLLECTION, which will be launching January 17, will indeed
include Limited Edition Charged Water (RENEWAL DEFENSE and REVITALIZING
ENERGY) as part of the collection.
I'm so excited!!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
I can't wait for this collection! I love my neutrals!
I wonder why we haven't got many images of the products? We usually have visuals when a release is this close

Okay, so it's not just me thinking this? LOL Still, I'm ecstatic that we have an almost positive set of release dates!!! I can finally sleep easier at night! I am dying to see promo pics of Nanogold, Neutral Pink, 2N and 3N lipsticks as well as a bigger Light Flush.
I bet these face charts will be amazing!

Re: MAC N Color Collection discussion
Yep,.. N should be coming out before the 17th. Nordstroms is having their event, which is normally done on and after the release date,.. on the 10th, 11th, and I am working it the 12th of January. So ladies if you are in Indy call Nordies for details.
