This collection is SO exciting! Thank you so much, HerGreyness! My life would have way less MAC in it w/o you!

i remember HerGreyness saying that two of the shadows she tested were satins and had the WN 'Bright Sunshine' and 'Blue Calm' and something about blushes/lipsticks but i can't remember anything other than that. seeing as i'm feeling sick today and not doing anything else, i'm quite happy to trawl through the old posts in the upcoming collections thread to see what else HerGreyness has told us about this collection.

so exciting! wonder what the packaging will look like? i can see red or blue eyeshadow pots with the WW wings logo on the window

I'm sure it's been asked & answered but do you work for MAC, Hergreyness or is there some other reason you get to see the goodies firsthand?

And that makes me very happy, as a red lipstick whore!!

I'm too excited about this collection!! How will I ever make it until February!

I still think it would be beyond cool to have clear plastic packaging like her invisible jet!

So excited for WW!

here we go! a little bit of super preliminary info

thanks HerGreyness!

that's what i thought, but apparently it's just the working name/inspiration and it'll get a new name closer to when it's released. same with blue calm

Spunky, you're the best for finding that stuff!

yep, blue calm and bright sunshine, plus some coral, red, and pink blushes -- I think I posted them on photobucket. Also some red and purple grape lippies

I will be back at work on Monday and then I can review what I had posted, and anything else that I might have for this collection.

I still have a Wonder Woman lunchbox! I bring it to the office LOL!

 

[User38]

usually the spring and fall collections are the biggies -- I think this one will be really special because of the anniversary of WW -- she turns 60!

and is still a raging Amazon

Wonder Woman is a DC Comics superheroine created by William Moulton Marston. She first appeared in All Star Comics #8 (December 1941). The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously since the company's 1944 inception, except for a brief hiatus in 1986.[1]
Wonder Woman is an Amazon (based on the Amazons of Greek mythology) and was created by Marston, an American, as a "distinctly feminist role model whose mission was to bring the Amazon ideals of love, peace, and sexual equality to a world torn by the hatred of men."[

Bright sunshine is a pro color in frost.. but I have a satin tester -- which does not mean it will be satin or it will be a repromote

Darlin Little MaryJane.. no, I do not work for MAC. I am a consultant for many different companies and that is why I get access to different products to test, long long before they are scheduled to hit the market.. sometimes some are a Go and other times they get canned based on feasibility studies.

But, no.. I am self employed

Ah, okay. Sounds like a cool job

That would be cool but, I think I would like red packaging just as much!

Has MAC ever had a collection with red packaging?
