I'd hope so, but I doubt it. The original ones were 2 grams I think.

I can't seem to find it online :( Is it Pro only?

I saw somewhere that they're 1,3g.

Thanks for the info.

From 2 to 1,3 but same price? Wow... 

Wow! So not right. I haven't had the pleasure trying the EDES. I am still going to buy at least one of them for this price, but... it's so not right. So f'up.

Exactly. I think i'm gonna get one maybe 2. We'll see. Ouch. Those prices.

Tx Mac-Guy!

Does anyone know how Outrageously Fun compares to Naughty Saute?

on swatches they look very similar.

Round midnight edes reminds me of another color??? Is it dupable?

So after all the new swatches my list now stands at:

A stolen Moment edes

Deliciously demure l/g

Glamourdaze l/s

Superb edmsf

and maybe small vanity depending on how it looks on nc45s and nc50s

Not too bad, right?

I just wore naughty saute today...and from swathces of OF, naugty saute seems a bit more on the lighter side than OF appears. More bubblegum pink than OF.

And Catch My Eye fluidline.. is it more of a dark silver grey or taupe? Or is it really a taupe grey like MAC states?

If ASM is similar to satin tuape...i will be crossing it off. Fingers crossed it is so i can save some money!

WTB swatches of Ready to Party...getting soo impatient, and also wondering why MAC hasn't put this collection up yet when everything I read said the date was supposed to be today, they are just getting horrible with everything anymore.

I'm on the fence now about Catch my Eye which is good because I need to pare down on my preorder anyway.  It looks more gray than taupe to me.  I'm not getting Stolen moment....it looks too much like Satin Taupe for my taste.

Everything I've read said October 25th, HTH.

Same here. I think most events were happening today and they should be at the Pro Stores on the 18th. My nordstroms said they were pre-ordering for the 23rd but when I was at the Pro Store stalking asking about this collection I talked to the training manager she looked at me like I was crazy. So I bet its the 25th still.

Isn't she referring to the online date, not in store date?

Well, I have only seen the October 25th in-store date listed. Unlike the Marilyn collection, none of the blogs I've read have even mentioned an estimated online date, nor do I recall seeing it here. I'm not sure if there even is an "official" online date, so it's all guessing and stalking on our parts now. Hopefully, it'll hit PRO soon, b/c I need to see more swatches! 

I'm afraid I have to skip the pigments & travel bag :(

damn bills + me going to nyc is not helping me at all... stupid price raises GRRR

For some reason I keep thinking it will be online on the 20th but I can't remember why I think that.

I kinda "guestimated" sometime between the 19th-22nd (basically this weekend). I based this on knowing that it'll Pro stores on the 18th. Then I figured it would hit the regular website sometime between the 18th and the regular in-store release on the 25th. I was thinking maybe the 19th or 20th for the MAC site and possibly the 22nd for Nordies. Of course, I may be pulling dates out of nowhere haha. It's usually easier for me to guess after it hits the Pro site. Hopefully that'll be tonight!

I'm just hoping it isn't tomorrow. I work tomorrow. Tomorrow night after 7 is good.

so im gonna miss the event tonight :( i hope it goes PRO tonight so i can order it with the new spring palette thats up online as well. seems like that just got added to pro today along with the pro lip palettes! i dont wanna pay shipping 2x 

I'm off to the event! I'll swatch as much as I can. My strategy is to fill out my order form with one of everything as soon as get there and hand it to a MUA. Then I'll swatch everything and will ask them to remove what I don't want before I buy.
