MAC Holiday 2012 Glamour Daze / Fabulousness / Guilty Passions Collection Discussion - Page 41

This is not good. I'm sure they'll rip off 23.50 euros here for them (we did not get the original EDs). And the regular e/s is - what 16.50?
 

This is my prelim list.  It ALWAYS gets smaller with swatches so I'm not too worried at the moment.

Lipsticks:
Glamourdaze - midtone creamy plum (CS)
Outrageously Fun - midtone magenta violet (CS)

Extra Dimension Skinfinish:
Whisper of Gilt

Kohl Power Eye Pencil:
Raven - intense black with red pearl
Orpheus - intense black with gold pearl
Mystery - intense black with green pearl

Powder Blush:
I'm the One - midtone blue pink
Easy Manner - light dirty peach
Small Vanity - dusty rose tan

I'll likely end up skipping the pencils or only getting one/two and likely only one blush, but we'll see.  The more swatches I see I'll definitely cut down though.

EDIT:  Googled swatches.  Not interested.  Saving my wallet, score!

I was wondering, how does Raven compare to Rockstar by UD? I love that liner

Well, off they go from my list! I was looking at 4 but $20 is too high for me. Sad, I was looking forward to trying out the formula since I skipped them previously! On the bright side, maybe I'll get Whisper of Gilt along with Superb since I'll save on the eye stuff. Orrrrrr splurge on some Guerlain Meteorites from the Sephora sale :O

I'm in love with the Beauty lipstick.

Can anyone tell me how they would wear it? I like a light lip but this seems frosty so I'm not sure if I'll know how to make up the rest of my face.

Thank you.

Does anyone have a pricelist yet? or know how much the lipsticks will cost? x

It definitely sucks that the prices are so much considering the fact that they are smaller I might still get 4 of them tho I'm not sure yet I'll have to wait and see the quality I'm going to go back and take the full price list. As much as I want this collection I just don't see myself getting out of hand with the amount of money I spend on it.

Getting so annoyed with MAC ripping us off so much lately.  Guess I'll only get 1 shadow unless there is more than 1 that is a total must have.  I can't justify paying that much for small eyeshadows.

Me too it reminds me of this lipstick I have from avon and it's just about finished, so I'm looking forward into purchasing the beauty lippie.

Yeah I'm getting bothered, too.  I mean I'm sure there will be one or two shades that are really worth that because of a unique color and great formula, but you know there are going to be duds :P.  At least there always seem to be.  And I know it's no secret but I cannot get over the price for dazzleglass, especially the Marilyn markup.  I love love dazzleglass and if the amount in the tube were the same as for lipglass I would probably own all of them but as it is Chanel glossimers and Bobbi Brown high shimmer glosses are looking more attractive.

I wonder when we'll start to get swatches of the blushes/more of the lipsticks.

I'm quite pleased my list is only 6 items and everything is a "maybe" - out of the palettes I'm only wanting 2 of the eye palettes and that's it.  I think 8 items out of two collections isn't at all bad considering how much there is.

My list for this collection is not too big.  I feel like something is wrong with me because I keep downsizing my MAC hauls :P.  Stuff in italics is what I'm not very excited about.

• • • l/s

      • glamour daze

      • dramatic encounter (this looks familiar but I can't put my finger on it)

    • l/g

      • flight of fancy

      • impossibly sweet (sparkle omg)

    • edes

      • divine blue

    • fluidline (they are super glittery but that's not a turn off for me and plus they will make gorgeous bases!)

      • catch my eye

      • little black bow

    • kohl power

      • raven

    • blush

      • small vanity

Other than that I'm almost positive I want the green piggie set.

This is RIDICULOUS!

ME TOO! They are seriously getting greeeeeeeedddaaaay! I really cant justify it either

I don't think a mini at that price point is reasonable value, particularly when I have the very lovely l'Oreal Bronzed Taupe Infallible. I think this is a pass for me.

What the heck, $15 ok, $19.50 heck no!!!

LOL well unforunately MAC pops those prices up because they see all of us waiting, staring for these collections to come out.

So they say "hey if they will do this for the regular things and the limited collections, let us drop the size and pop up the price and they will still come!"

And we keep coming...i'm for sure at some point long ago we complained about a price going up to going up and going up...and we keep buying!

Really nothing we can do until it just gets outrageous....

well if that is the case it will be easy for me to cut down on edes. I don't want to pay more less product.  Dark Dare is still online.

Yeah i need to get Dark Dare myself before it goes away....i'm liking that burgundy edes tho so i know ill be getting it as long as the consistency is the same as the older ones

It looks really similar to Rich Core, which I love. It is still available on the Canadian site along with six others.

Edit -- just looked at the description of Stylish Merry (mid-tone dusky violet), which I want, and Grand Galaxy (dirty mid-tone violet). How different can they be? I might end up getting Grand Galaxy for more product, I know quite a few people loved that colour.

I can't wait to see swatches of the eyeshadows. I think I'm going to pick up less than I thought I would from this collection.

"only?" LOL
