MAC x Proenza Schouler (April 24, 2014)

[MACina]

They can call it a beauty powder if they wish but it is a blush. The release said "face powder" but that is not even a MAC product name just a description and there is no way it would work for an all over the face application. The color is self explanatory as to where on the face the product would work. I am not saying it is for sure Ripe Peach but it looks an awful lot like it. My point was that they have made regular round items square in couture collections before and Strada was an example of that.

Yes, I agree.And,to be honest; I wouldn' t be surprised if they brought this one back.

I agree. I was just saying they've described it as a powder. Hopefully it's pigmented like a blush. I just think since they're describing it as a "powder" maybe it'll be slightly different even if it does end up being a repromote

I know it isn't ripe peach b/c its square, but wonder if it could be a close match/dupe?  BTW, wasn't there an Estee Lauder blush that was ombre and close to RP?  I see one every time I go to my CCO and think of getting it, but don't.  AND, I saw it really cheap recently on another retail site (PM me if you want deets) so I was considering...

yes I have the el blush and I love it they actually did a couple of these ombre blush.im not sure how many but I have three of the colors I love el blushes.they are like second skin melt into your skin.I used to look at el as kinda old lady but they really have stepped thier game up in the last couple of years

 

[fabulousmoolah]

I think all I need is one blush. Money saved

The packaging for this collection is sooo pretty

I already have some ombres in my collection, but will probably get another just for the cute packaging

I adore that el blush for my nc15 skin its a beautiful peachy coral. I could not get my hands on rp so I settled for that one and its gotten alot of love despite the ugly packaging. I'd love for this new face powder to be rp

 

[allthingsglam]

I think this collection is going to be big for me I love it already I want both face powder I think the Brush is calling my name I wonder why mac don't make le brushes like the regular ones but I may bend and get this one I passed on the riri ones because they didnt get good reviews and maybe two lippies

 

[LipstickSensei]

I don't like the lipstick packaging. The face powders look nice.

Me either not really a fan

 

[Kristin Bacon]

yeah if the le brushes where made nicer i would totally grab that one it is soooo cute. I want sooo much of this collection too yikes, im excited i want the powders soooo bad and lipsticks

 

[JJJewels]

I need both of those blushes ASAP!!!

 

[alyxo]

Omg I'm so excited for this! MAC needs to team up with fashion designers more often!

I took a photo of Ripe Peach if any of you guys were wondering what it looks like. I thought it would maybe be helpful since some people think it's a powder and others think it's a blush:





I took the photos with my Iphone so the quality is ok. The peach in the blush is not showing up that well but it is more peach in real life.

[mac-obsessed]

Maybe they want to lable it a face powder to justify a hefty price tag on it like $33 vs $23 who knows

Are the lipsticks mineralize lipsticks or just in a different tube ?

 

[singer82]

Is is the higher end collection? The lippy packaging kinda looks like the Gareth Pugh ones.

 

[liba]

Are the lipsticks mineralize lipsticks or just in a different tube ?

I don't think they're mineralize, based on the shape of the bullet in the promo pix, which looks like the normal MAC lipstick bullet shape.

 

[Kristin Bacon]

im curious about that coralish looking lipstick hmmmm. i know i want nude and pink but that coral one has me interested omg!

 

[Rebellefleur]

Ill probably end up getting one of the lipsticks,
still undecided on the "face powders" *cough* Blushes.
I have 2 blush ombres I barely use - Im more of a nars blush kinda girl but I guess Ill check these out,
the packaging looks pretty

I was wondering that too. They aren't square like the photos on here?

nah the packaging on the mineralize lipsticks are this sort of fat tube and the actual lipstick bullet inside had got a bigger, flatter head than the pointy wedge tip of the normal lipsticks

Oh I get it! I always thought they were shaped different for some reason! Thanks. So these look like regular lipstick just in special packaging. I hope they're mostly done with the mineralize lip. I didn't see anything WOW about them.
