Me too!! For about the same amount of time as you, I've been dying my hair various shades of auburn and burgundy, that I can't even remember the natural color. People ask me what my natural color is, and I give them this somewhat pained look and reply, "brrooowwwnnn......?" Because once about an inch of roots show, time for a refresher. lol

I agree with the others! Bunny is such a tease!! I want more info~!

My hair's naturally blaack or daaark brown, but in the last 4 years I've been dying it a lighter brown - so I guess maybe I'll fall into the Brunette category, however the Brunette & Redhead lipsticks seem to appeal to me, Brunette lipglasses defo, Henna e/s & all the Redhead eyeshadows!

The MSF's sound really pretty, too, and I'm also looking forward to seeing these new brushes!

I wonder what the 165 is like, the 226 sounds pretty good too. Have either of these come out before?..

You've kept it tame, then - my hair has been nearly every colour you can think of.

I was at MAC today and the MA I was chatting with is very excited about this collection - loves so much about it, says lots of stuff is gorgeous and even the promo pic is really pretty.

Have you ever tried red, I mean really tomato red? What colour are you hair w/o dye? I like the idea of red hair

Another gorgeous collection, where will this end?!

I LOVE bright red hair! Yum.

As far as can be determined from roots upon occasion, my hair is naturally a boring medium brown with natural blonde highlights. Blech.

I'll stick to the dye.

I so want to give them a try, but my hairdresser thinks it is not a good idea as my hair are very dark. Plus I have black eyebrows which limits me somewhat. But she suggested orange highlights. Too bad the green did not hold.

Hmm... you could try a mix or orange and bright red highlights/streaks through the middle layers of your hair? Leave a bit of the dark over them so they blend in a bit more and sort of peek through. I think that if done well that would likely be pretty fantastic.

I would love to dye my hair so many colors, but up until recently it was about butt-length and I really didn't want to bleach it.

I accidentally dyed my hair bright red and I loved it! But they stopped making that color.

I feel like this collection is going to be the CoC collection of January!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

I like Redhead's MSF the best, from the sound of it. I LOVE peaches on my skin!!!! NC30 woot woot.

I'm sooo excited for this collection, more than any of the rest of this year actually.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

im really excited about this collection i will get everything for the blondes haha....i wanna see pictures especially of the frosty pink lipstick...cant wait

 

[Zantedge]

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

I want the Brunette MSF, but I don't think it will suit my skintone; might have to go with the Blonde instead...

Anyway... I decided to get the ball rolling on swatches since there are some repromotes. There was nowhere else to put this so I put it here.

Knight eyeshadow

(in smoky eyes palette)

paler than nw15 skin. natural lighting. no flash or base.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Oh wow...now I want both the blonde AND the redhead! Eyeshadows are AUD$33 over here and I still can't justify spending that much when I'm perfectly happy with Inglot and Fyrinnae, but MAC cheek stuff is diviiiiine. Some of the lipsticks look nice too.

 

[gigglegirl]

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

score! thank you Zantedge for that swatch! That was the only e/s I fell in love with in the palettes last year, but couldn't justify buying a whole palette for a little square.

BUT now that its repromoted on its own?!

I will buy at least one. Maybe two since I love greys!

Question: is this displayer going to be HUGE? or multiple? As there are so many items for each tone. Honestly, this is the one I'm majorly lemming, the next few collections don't excite me really at all. So more for this one!
