Summerwear Quad (Nordstrom exclusive) May 2006

[Juneplum]

k so I went to the mac pro event this saturday at nordies and look what i found (and bought 2 of, of course :





it's an LE palette that's coming out with the summer collection called Summerwear!

The colors are:

Lightweight Black (Veluxe)
Lustreleaf (Lustre)
Julep (Veluxe Pearl)
Nylon (Frost)

The palette is very pretty. Julep is a gorgeous mint green, and Lightweight Black looks more like a VERY dark blue with sparkles. My pictures don't do it justice. Honestly, it's prettier in person.

The event was great as usual. Saw our lovely member and one of my FAVORITE MAC ma's EVER, the lovely giz2000 Found out a few things from the lovely pro trainers:

New MSF's are coming for Fall. I asked her if it's true they are going to make them permanent and she said she highly doubts it as keeping it LE makes them more exclusive. That and it takes a very long time to make them as they are individually baked in Italy.

Viva Glam 6 IS coming out for fall with NEW spokespersons. MAC hasn't told ANYONE, not even the trainers who the new spokes people are going to be as they don't want it leaked at ALL! All they have been told is that they are going to be very happy with the choices.

They have asked Madonna MANY times to be a VG spokesperson but she's turned them down every time as her schedule is too busy to commit to the time MAC needs of her to promote VG.

MAC has asked Dolly Parton to be an Icon. Not necessarily for next year, but they have approached her to be one. Let's see if she accepts

The Nordies anniversary collection is AMAZING! Seriously, start saving NOW cos I snuck a peek at the book and WOW

The pigments from She Shines are GORGEOUS!!!! Golder's Green and Azreal Blue are the stars of the collection imho. I can't wait for this collection! For SURE i'll be getting 2 each of those!

If I remember anything else I'll update the post

Me, too!!! I absolutely love her. I hope this is true. That would be the first Icon collection that I would get really excited about. I'm imagining lots of pinks and sparkle and super-girliness in a Dolly collection.
