This collection came out of left field and I am in trouble. My favorite lipstick finish (amplified) AND my favorite e/s finish (VP)?!?!? MAC, what are you doing to me?!?!?! At least three things on that list are definite buys, right off the bat, and pretty much everything else is a maybe, depending on pics/swatches. I HOPE most of those maybes turn into a no. I'm going to let myself splurge on only ONE collection this spring (not sure which one yet), but generally speaking I'm trying to stick to no more than three items per collection for a while. Of course, if I only buy two things from one collection, I guess I could buy one extra thing from another collection. And if I skip a collection entirely, I could get 3 more things from a different collection. You see where I'm going with this...

Is this definitely Pro store only and not going to be on the Pro site?

I want the blushes for sure, I don't care if this is Pro store only or some deserted island only, I will get my hands on them.

The brown VP e/s sounds like must-have as well. I want pretty much everything except the frosty lippies and the warm and the purple-y e/s. Will have to see swatches of the nude l/s of course, but so far they all sound great.

Oh, I know you will!!!

Based on the blush descriptions, I think I'll just check out Stylish Me, since Barefoot sounds more dupeable. But it's always so hard impossible to tell from descriptions alone. Angel's Kiss l/s is on my "most likely" list, and the other nude lippies are all maybes until I can see them. The only metallic l/s I'll give in to is Show-All (heavily metallic deep red). Loves Lure e/s (metallic deep red) is a must for me, and all the other metallic e/s are on my maybe list right now. The brown one is actually the one I'm most likely to skip since it sounds similar to Carbonized, which I already have.

One thing is for sure: Actually getting to see this collection is either going to be a huge relief or a huge problem for my wallet! It could really go either way.

Well, it looks like I'll have to drag myself to the Pro store. I never go there - the parking is atrocious. Too many things here that could be phenomenal, though and of course, they're nudes (and red), which you couldn't get me to buy without seeing in person first.

The other hope I have is that perhaps this would get expanded out as another exclusive, like Nordstrom or the top selling stores, etc. like some of the other collections. Either that, or the colors come back in some other more mainstream collection, like the big fall one.
