Too early to dish on this one? I think not! Don't know why, but the eyeshadows have me so excited! The lipcolors don't sound half bad either? Thoughts?

Re: WOC: Peacocky discussion

Based on the color descriptions, I'm not interested in any of the lipcolors, but the finish sounds amazing... I'm trying to honor my indefinite lippie no-buy besides.

I'm eager to see the actual product, because I love peacock EVERYTHING, so the name alone piqued my interest.

So far, the eyeshadows I'm checking for are:

paparazz-she-deep copper bronze
sexpectations-metallic burgandy
spectacle of yourself-deep bronze
dandizette-navy with silver pearlized pigments
odalisque-deep teal
noir plum-true purple with silver pearlized pigments
ego-forest green

I'm sure my list'll be significantly smaller by the time product photos and swatches make their rounds.

Re: WOC: Peacocky discussion

I'm hoping (for my wallet's sake) that a lot of the eye shadows are similar to Ben Nye Lumiere shadows that I already have, but some definitely sound interesting, like the forest greens shade.

So far I have 6 lippies and 4 e/s on my list. I hope I'm able to cut down to 4 or 5 items total. :no:

I can't wait to see swatches of the lippies. I won't be getting any shadows, but I will do serious damage with those lip colors.

Sounds intereresting especially the lipcolors. However like most of the posters in this tread I'm taking a wait and see position on the eyeshadows. I wonder if they are a reinvention of the Metal X cream shadows?

The new eyeshadow formula isn't in actual cream form; my understanding is that they are in powder form and apply smoothly like cream/butter. Nothing like Metal X.

uyyyyyy

 

no no no, these are not at all like the old Metal Xers.... these were originally called Metal Rocks, then the name was changed to Mega Metals because the finish is metallic but not glittery or gritty. The collection was then marketed with Peacocky.... lol.  I won't even go into the history of the names.

 

these are smooth, buttery and apply like a cream but are powder.

Ahhhhh!  Temptalia has the promo photos up, and I am frothing at the mouth!  Love Peck looks divine!  I see 3 of the lipcolors I def want and I'm still stuck on about 5 shadows.  I gotta pare this list down!

Okay, I'm down to these after seeing the real promo pics, but I might eliminate "spectacle", by the time I can swatch.

Ashley - I saw this collection in store and the colors didnt really jump out to me.  Just looking at the colors and not the formula of alot of the e/s just look like stuff you probably already have in your collection.  So I walked away without purchasing anything. 

 

Im going to go through my stash and look at what I have. . and then maybe look at this collection one more time just to make sure.

 

If things look pretty similar,  is it really necessary to have both ?? I mean really when its on your face can you really tell a difference ??  This is going to be the question I ask myself b4 I buy things bcuz MAC is coming out with things way too fast for me.

This was exactly my thinking.  Temptalia's dupe swatches really surprised me at just how similar a lot of these colors are to other MAC -- and UD -- colors (that I already own).
