Thanks Dolly! Only know two of them but I'm curious about the shades. Even though I clearly don't need any more lippies lol.

Interesting. The only name I know is Alessandra Steinherr. Looking forward to what shades they come up with.

From what I've seen on their insta stories, it's nudes, nudes and nudes again. Yawn. From what the single bloggers/vloggers/influencers/whatever have said it also sounds like that the lipsticks will only release in their respective countries? That paired with the lack of diversity makes me really resent that collection.

All those countries and they couldn't find a deeper skinned person to represent more of the color spectrum? Or the diversity all around the globe?! How about beauty influencers that don't pander to 14 year olds like Laura Lee? Maybe I'm just getting old and cranky. Dang it MAC I was rooting for you!

I'm only familiar with Fleur and Samantha. Guess "All Ages, All Races" doesn't necessarily apply here. There's one male...however...

Really annoyed with this collection on basis of the complete lack of diversity so I doubt I'll get anything. Plus I looked at their pages and they alll look like they're making boring colors lol. If I had that chance the world would be getting a neon coral lipstick :p

Hm... I'm always happy about nude shades, but looking at their pictures I'm not a fan of their (makeup) style.

Riiiiiiiight?!?!??! Alex Steinherr said something like her shade was the equivalent of a comfy pair of jeans, and I was like GIRL! You're at MAC! You don't want everyday jeans, you want a nightgown! A cocktail dress! A jumpsuit! Anything! But not jeans!!!!!!!!!

I only know of Samantha and The Real Fourz. I'm British and I don't know Fleur and Alessandra (I'm having a Mariah moment, don't mind me).

I DON'T WANT NUDES, I WANT EXCITEMENT.

MakeupbyShayla is one WOC they could've used. HELL, there are loads of POC they could've collaborated with. Wow MAC, I wanted to say something a bit on the slanderous side, but I won't say it. I've adopted that 'ain't got nothing nice to say' mantra.

I'd be so bummed if the lippies are only sold in their countries. Also, it would be ridiculous to release 10 nude-ish shades, I hope there will be more interesting shades too.

MAC Germany just confirmed it. I mean, it's MAC Germany, but still - there might be a grain of truth in that somewhere. Or it might not. :rolleyes:

Is Fleur de Force the same Fleur from here? :O If so, that's pretty cool. I only know of Gabriel (he's from the Jeffree, Manny, and Patrick unholy trinity clique) and larlalee (not a fan and agree Jayjayy with everything she wrote). Enjoy Phoenix's insta looks alright. I'm not so thrilled that it will be nude shades only but at least it's not red. There could've been more variety with the influencers, instafamous, and yt beauty guru vloggers as well.

No.

Only one medium(ish) skin-toned person (Fouz), and she's on the lighter side of medium. And no one from other Asian countries, and no dark-skinned rep. :( And if they're all doing similar colours... meh.

The last time they did a collab with beauty bloggers, there was at least a mix of eyeshadows and lipglasses, and there was a wider variety of colours.

no I agree. Not only did they not have any black people or other people of color, but they don't have anyone who looks over 30. WTH MAC, set a standard, don't fall victim to a trend. YOU'RE MAC!
