MAC Strength Collection Discussion (December 2012) - Page 22

I've been searching. We need our Detective Naynadine to make a come back. I would love to see Firm Form and Strong Woman (the purple lipstick. Forgot the name), both quads & the blushes.

  Hehe, I haven't been online much lately, I have to get back in stalking mode soon. I'm still overwhelmed with all the new collections. I'm not even sure if we're getting those here and if I'll buy anything. I do want both blushes from this one, but we'll see.

I only found this info on release dates, not sure if this was posted already.

Thanks for the info Naynadine! I've been searching as well, but to no avail yet.

Yes, I'm feeling better today, thank you!

We don't have the promo pics for this collection yet, right? I have only seen the Taste Temptations ones.

I too am dying to see swatches of Strong Woman. I hate waiting. LOL

Anyone notice it's getting harder to get swatches early and promo pics (leaks)? Like MAC is really keeping a tight lid on upcoming LE collections. Noticed blogers aren't getting swatches on as fast as in the past.

nothing like a bit of mystery to feed the hype...

... or MAC's scared that we won't buy the stuff i we see swatches!

yeah last year mac didnt sell well because of the bad reviews. i personally loved some of the things that got bad reviews. i dont want temptalia or others to have the color story yet cause people that follow them are going to go crazy. on the other hand i love their bad reviews! more time for me to buy bu's

This collection comes out on the 3rd of January? I thought it was the 26th of this month. I'm a bit confused.

omg why did I look at this board? Chanel notorious caught my eye and then I looked up swatches...and if there is one thing I am dying to have its to fake the appearance of cheekbones!!!I want!!

I want the quads and the following lippies 

Strong Woman – Bright violet (Matte) <- only if its blue enough

Absolute Power – Rich red (Matte)<- what does rich mean? lol

Firm Form – Gilded black with gold pearlized pigments (Matte)<- like the grey friday one?

I've noticed Mac cracking down on that in the last year or so. Not sure why. Other cosmetic brands, if anything, are getting more lax about letting stuff leak. If you go look through the Cosmetic discussion forums, a lot of them have pics of Spring 2013 collections out... Then again, I think the number of collections Mac does makes it in their interest to keep the window very narrow and hope that people will grab up the new stuff as soon as it goes on sale (seems to be working).

I'd love to see some swatches from this collection, but I also think that since what I want are mostly lipsticks, I'm pretty confident that Mac can deliver on quality.

I think I want ALL the lipsticks. Ahh my wallet.

Interested in the Taupe Blush also.

And that is it. I refuse to let myself spend anymore.

I hope...

Ok, I'm not going to lie, that situation messed me up.  I have only slept in my  house 3 nights, the first two I was super paranoid but last night I was ok.  Although, I was out, and my good friend followed me home and checked the house out. LOL  I'm pretty sure I won't be able to have him do that every night. 

Thank you for asking!

I can't even imagine what this does to one's head.  I hope it gets better, and you somehow feel comfortable in your own home again.

Good luck with that!  I've tried and it just doesn't seem to work.  If you have a magic formula please, please share it.

I just swatched Lasting Sensation next to What A Blast & Entertain Me and it looks orange next to them, but on it's own it looks coral.  I use it interchangeably.

CONFUSED!  That's an understatement!  I thought it was just me.  It seems to be getting harder and harder to keep the collections and products straight.  Totally overwhelmed, but I so love buying the stuff.  Twisted right?

I have a friend who had a stalker. She asked her neighbor to stay with her to protect her and he wound up staying - they've been married now 15 years. ;)
