Sigh. There are so many collections coming out in August/September, I'm worried about being able to afford it all! I'm fine for Cindy Sherman & Posh paradise but the MAC me over collection is quite worrisome, considering its my bfs bday a few weeks before and I have to save for that before this... Hopefully I'll be able to get:
-226 Brush [definitely!]
-1 Blush [I LOVE blushes, i'll need swatches to choose 1!]
-Avenue Fluidline [maybe, i dont wear eyeliner too much]
-1 e/s [maybe... I'll have to see swatches first]
-3 Lipglasses/lipsticks [I'm a lippie person:)]
Hopefully this collection wont run out too fast... :(

Here's a strange thing I found. Not sure if it's related or not. I found this link, which purports to be about the Bloggers' Obsessions collection:

http://cosmeticsmag.com/?p=11316

but the images actually look like products from Mac Me Over. That does look like the Lady Grey quad, the polishes match two of the descriptions we have and there are shadesticks. Since we probably won't get any info from Mac until about three hours before the collection sells out on line, I thought I'd share...

By the way, those who bought Dark Diversion when it released with Stylishly Yours, do you find it drier than other fluidlines? Mine seems a bit dry, and it's harder to pick up and apply than others.

Nope, it is perfectly fine. I find fluidlines thinner than Bobbi Brown gel liners.

I don't know that I'd say I found it dryer, but I do find that I need more product on this one (and with Ivy from Mickey Contractor) to make an opaque line. That said, one of my favourite ways to use Dark Diversion isn't as a liner at all, but as an all-over base.

I'm almost out of Blacktrack and I've been wondering whether or not to switch to the Bobbi Brown gel liner in black. I'm undecided on any of the fluidlines from this collection, although the blackened green seems like it might be a nice, subtle variation from black.

I want to see some pictures & then swatches. I have a pretty big list for MAC Me Over and I would like to cut it down since there are so many other collections coming out & I know I will be buying from them as well. I am hoping that the Prince Noir lipstick is a true deep blue-purple based lipstick with no pink or red in it. Like a darker more matte version of Go For It would please me just fine.

It's not the softest of all brushes but I would not call it scratchy either. It probably depends on your skin and how sensitive you are to the darker bristles. I always find the white bristles more soft.

It's funny, because the Fashion Week images we got of Prince Noir didn't make it look purple to me- more like a dark red. But I'm certainly not going to object if it turns out more purple.

I'm not sure if these photos were seen but swatches of Prince Noir and Runaway Red are here. I'm guessing the models with the burgundy lips are wearing Prince Noir?

I had a huge list when I 1st saw this color story but as I read the thread a few things got taken out. I'm sure that once swatches hit my list will most likely shrink even more. Currently these are my lemmings:



  • Evil Eye Quad
  • Carbonized e/s: Frosty dark brown
  • Outre: Mid-tone mustard (matte)
  • Avenue f/l: Charcoal black with gold pearlized pigments
  • 226 Brush x2


Items that started out on my list and got dropped like a bad habit:

  1. Midnight Blue f/l : I already have Siahi and love it too much to invest in something that close to it.
  2. Dark Envy f/l: I recently got Shale f/l from the CCOs again too similar IMHO
  3. Prince Noir l/s: Honestly once I saw the pics on Richie Nickle's site I immediately of Night Violent Mattene with a gloss.

Speaking of Flammable. I just ran across this video where the youtuber layered Pink Bronze over Flammable. So pretty! Another thing to want. Here's the link if you're interested:

It's time for a Flammable p/p. It would work so well under MES Smoked Ruby.
