so the lippie is the only thing in this collection, right??

What is ACW?

I think so. Just like Black Knight was the only thing offered last year.

Oh, didn't know there's a polish too! That's neat. I'm only getting the lipstick.

As much as I hate buying from Mac online, I am definitely getting both - I love the matching lipstick and nails look

I've gotten into the matching lips and nails look, too. But I don't care for the formula of all the MAC polishes I've swatched so far. I hope to find a similar color in another brand.

By the way, liba, are you feeling better?

Thanks for asking, CC. Every day is different - the health stuff is definitely a lot better, the rest is pretty up and down, which I guess is to be expected. There's still makeup, at least!

i didn't realize there was a polish too...

i will probably give it a miss....too many thing to want...

though on the topic of formula - i usually find a nice shiny clear coat over my mac polishes does the trick!

Glad your health is getting better. That's really good to hear. Makeup is always a great distraction for everything else.

So now they appear to be called "Grey Friday". Description sounds similar, but I guess that means that all bets are off in terms of how close it is to the original Jet.

I love the color, but the MAC nail polish is so sketchy, it has to be unique for me to put up with the crummy formula.

boooooh mac i wanted jet.... but  soo im getting the grey friday anyways

 Yes! I don't buy MAC nail polishes because of the price. The only way that I can get myself to do that is it has to be a unique shade.

the nail polish looks so pretty but i can never justify the price of mac polishes so i don't even own one, opi is expensive to me but i get those, I'm still up in the air about the lipstick only because i'm like when will i wear this, but the fact that it's a one day sale makes me want it lol

     before i was a mac addict opi was really expensive to me...... 

Grey Friday doesn't sound anywhere near as cool as a lipstick called Jet |:

The name aside, I hope it's still the same shade and opacity level because that swatch got me ridiculously excited for this!

I also liked it better when it was called Jet, but the colour is still very unique and interesting.

Same here. I had my heart set on Jet, but Grey Friday will do for me anyhow.

I wonder if the Grey Friday polish is somehow close to Studded

I think like that but with glitter

Would love the nail polish but I don't trust mac's, so just lipstick for me.
