I'm interested in Rock Out and Intimidate. I want to see what the canary yellow one looks like, but can promise that I won't get it!

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
Yeah, Rock Out sounds like something I might be interested in. I can't really do matte lippies, b/c my lips just peel and crack so bad. I love the look of matte though...

I'm hoping that because it's the Slimshine formula, it won't be so hard on the lips because I'm the same way about mattes. :/

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
My winter lips are hoping for the same. I've been loading up with lip moisturizer the last couple days because just about every colored lip product I've applied recently ends up making them feel all gross and flaky.
While I love the colors in the promo pic, anyone else cringe at the lipstick abuse? If you're going to wreck them, give them to meeeee! I seriously need some help and/or more coffee.

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
I'm thinking that maybe they're considered matte because there's no sparkle/luster to them, and it's just straight color without any...extras?

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
methinks Voile could end up like Springbean Lustreglass on the lips - very sheer, soft golden shimer
Missy will be mine!

Please keep in mind that these shade names were translated, they should be used as a general idea of color.

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
Hmmm...wondering if Voile could end up somewhat like the dc'd Lure-x lipglass?? That was a pretty bright yellow and amazing on top of so many lipsticks  So excited about all the new stuff that's coming out!
Can't wait 'till update!!!

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
OMG I was thinking the same thing! At first I was like, that nail is hot. Then I looked closer and was like "MAC ABUSE!!"

Re: MAC Cosmetics Slimshine '08 Shades names and Color Descriptions!
Just went digging for swatches for the repromotes and getting excited for some non-dry-feeling lipsticks.
http://specktra.net/f217/mac-slimshi...-2007-a-68625/
I'm needing Urgent!, Most Wanted, Scant, and maybe one of the new ones we don't have swatches of yet. Hoping to get a couple of these with B2M... I've got depotting to do!
