Yeah it's weird when perm items are sold out and don't get restocked for a while. The same thing happened with the Prolongwear concealer in my area, too! I went to three different MAC counters and they were all sold out of NW20 Pro Longwear Concealer, I was skeptical and hoping that they didn't discontinue the shade because it's my HG under-eye concealer! The website was sold out for a bit, too, but once I saw it available I snagged a bottle even though I've still got some left in the one I'm using now. 

Can anyone guess which shadows she is wearing?  I'm getting my list ready.

Thank you.

I don't know, but I think I will have to get all of the pink ones to cover the bases.  I love pink eyeshadow.  I would think the one described as rose for sure but they probably used more than one...

That is a gorgeous shadow. I want to know which one it is also because I want it. When is this collection suppose to be coming out? I forgot. I need to re-look at the colors so I know which ones I want.

I'm glad these are perm. I can take my time ordering them. I'm skipping the lipglasses. As of now, swatches pending of course, the ones colored are the ones on my list so far.

pro long wear eye shadow

ever ivory- pale ivory 

bloom on -light burnt rose

always sunny- light yellow brown 

uninterrupted- dark caramel 

fashion fix- dark cool slate grey

linger softly- light grey blue 

endless passion- mid tone rose 

mauveless- dark mid tone mauve 

more amour- mid tone red 

prolongwear blush 

baby dont cry- light cool beige

stay by me - light peach coral 

blush all day - light mid tone rose beige 

stubborn- mid tone rose plum

rosy outlook- light yellow pink

stay pretty- light bright blue pink 

eternal sun - warm brown 

whole lotta love- light blue pink 

This is the collection I am most excited about. I know it is permanent but I still want at LEAST four shadows, maybe more and I am not very good at waiting.

Remember the ivory is NOT permanent.

That's a good reminder.  I'll have to remember to swatch and consider it carefully before it's gone for good.

I am very excited about this collection too....more than Style Seeker!

That's why I will pick up mine a.s.a.p. Once they are sold out, they might not come back any time soon - and the tester will be gone too if they sell out. I wouldn't want to miss out on new blushes, just because they are seeming perm.

Love your cute puppy!

When we looked through the book (new collections) it did seem like one blush was also not permanent. I'm sorry I can't remember which one. And I'm not sure about the lip glosses.

I love the look of her eyeshadow -- does anyone actually apply theirs like this, that dark up to the brows?? I want to try it.

Excited to get some shadows and blushes but I'll be skipping the glosses. I had so much trouble with Driven By Love from the Styledriven collection last year. I'm not taking any chances.

Are these shadows taking place of the old styledriven ones then? My CCO had all of the SD ones...

I can't keep up with mac and what they are keeping/ discontinuing! 

I hope so too...that would be awesome!

Creamy Bisque gets so much love...and it would be great to have a color like it as a PLW e/s.

 Thank you, Iyse! I didn't know that. I have added Ever Ivory to my list.

I fell in love with this promo pic and did a version of the eye makeup for work last Friday. I used Daylight MES topped with a little Expensive Pink all over the lid and Club on the crease. It wasn't an exact copy but I loved how it turned out.

I love this look too. Thanks for the idea, I don't have club but I'll find something to go with my expensive pink.

I was just watching a Youtube video where Saddle and a couple of other matte or non shimmer brown shades were used and I was thinking of making a 4 pan with them.  I'm starting to get excited for this collection now.  Now really excited about anything else.  I think it might be the promo pic with all the all pink look.  Come to think of it there are quite a few pink eyeshadows and blushes in this collection.  Love the whole promo image look.  Pink eyes, pink cheeks, pink lips and pink nail colors (skittles!)

I wonder what she is wearing on her lips? Looks like a lipstick, but there are none in this collection.

Do the MAC guys and gals know which products the models are wearing? I really want everything from this promo pic.

I'm really excited about this collection! I really really love pink eyeshadows especially the more rosey and mauve colors!

Even though these pictures are not my style.. I DIE FOR THEM!!!

Makes me excited for a collection that I wasnt planning to haul from... standard Mac clever marketing!!!

And I am very excited about the eyeshadows too!

My list is just about the same!   I cannot wait to see More Amour.  I hope it's really red and not pink.  Or cranberry.  Or orangey.

I hope the styledriven stuff from last year isn't going away!  I never bought Lasting Achievement gloss because of the price and the reports of extreme stickiness.  Although if it is discontinued I can see some stock hanging around counters for a while.  Did you see any plw glosses at the CCO?
