Thank you, duckrodeo & Richelle for the info on the Dazzleglasses. I'm going to wait to see swatches before deciding on them.

Deeply Adored and Chamed I'm Sure sound good. I will be checking for those. The shadows sound pretty. I just started playing with white, dark gray and navy blue shadows and I find that look to be beautiful and glamorous. This is straight up Marilyn Monroe makeup so outside of lips and checking out the shadows ( I hope they are not dupeable) ,nothing else really appeals to me. Her makeup was pretty average. This is still an exciting collection and collaboration because is such an icon. I hope MAC has some great events in store for us.

Yes it is since I missed the IA collection completely! I sent my list to my MUA late last night. She was supposed to pull Heroine from Reel Sexy and Red Racer from Hey Sailor, but for some reason, both collections were received on her day off so by the time she got there, she wasn't able to pull those for me, even though I had first dibs. So this morning, I half-jokingly told her, "if nothing else, there's one thing you must pull for me, and it's Scarlet Ibis. Don't f*** this up!" We have a good laugh over that.

Might get the Forever Marilyn powder...everything else seems pretty boring.
I'm interested in the powder too (depending on swatches, of course). I'm starting to really like the special powders.

I'll probably buy Redd l/p and Scarlet Ibis, unless SI it too close to Sail la Vie. I think it's redder though based on the swatches I've seen. I want to see the champagne e/s as well; Jaunty didn't even show on me. Regardless, this won't be a big haul for me.

Yay for scarlet ibis! I missed it the first time. And the reds sound awesome. Unfortunately mattes dont like me, so not sure about these. I wish they were a diffrent finish. If I could only find a way for mattes to work on me! :(

Preferred Blonde sounds beautifullllllllllll! Pale champagne beige AND a veluxe pearl finish? Count me in!

I like the sound of the white dazzleglass. I do prefer dazzleglass cremes, but still love me some DG's.
The price for the amount is def a factor, you can go through them pretty quick.

I kind of wish that the eyeshadows were grouped in a quad instead of single eyeshadows.

Let the endless lusting begin!!! I'm kind of split on this collection. The shades look nice, but it's like it lacks a "wow" for me. That said I"m really in love with neutral eyes and red lips, so it would be a great opportunity to stock up on things I might wear a lot. Here's what catches my eye at first glance... (I have two of the three lip pencils and I really recommend them- perfect matches to warm and cool reds)

Lipstick
Deeply Adored - Deep scarlet (Matte)
Charmed I'm Sure - Dark true red (Matte)
Love Goddess - Mid-tone pink red (Satin)


Eyeshadow

Preferred Blonde - Pale champagne beige (Veluxe Pearl)
Showgirl - Dark blue grey (Veluxe Pearl)


Beauty Powder
Forever Marilyn - Sheer pale peach highlighter


Powder Blush
Legendary - Pale soft coral (Satin)

I'm unsure about the beauty powder or blush. They sound like they could be very nice, but they also sound like they could be fairly dupe-able. I guess we'll see when they come out...

I would have liked the eyeshadows as a quad, too, as it would be much cheaper that way. That's probably why they have done them as singles, though - so they can charge more for them

I will try to remember to take a picture of SI on my lips tomorrow. I already put up a picture of SLV, but i will repost it then so it's easier to compare.
On me SI is a lot more red.

Thanks - I would so appreciate that. If SI is more red, it will definitely come home with me. I'd love an orange-red.I see SLV as an orange; I'm not as fond of the pure orange shades like Booyah, Morange, etc.
