That's what is getting me too! If I had the money I would buy them all. Damn MAC.
Ahhh so pretty!! I think I only want Margherita now..For those interested, found at Macy's! I didn't buy any, I passed on by and had to at least swatch them :lol: BTW That is Tropic Tonic next to Margherita

Is the pro discount applicable or are we having to wait two weeks after the release for it?

Its not.
Oh wow, all of that does seem pretty reasonable considering. I do see how that $180 does add up, though. Have you ever been to Hong Kong?DEFINITELY cheaper, but then again going to the moon is cheaper than Europe. The little flights between countries are our only big cost. A 3 star hotel here is like a 5 star hotel in the states, SO nice, and they cost like what a motel 6 in Minnesota would. So you get a lot of bang for your buck. If you stayed in one country it would be REALLY cheap. The little flights are like 180$ a person, and it's more reliable than ground transport for long distance and border crossings. So they're doable, but they sure add up

So what do you think of the gloss? Is it pretty much the same as macs clear gloss or is the formula different enough to need both?not the best swatches. the gloss is on top, you can see a little golden sparkle in the first pic, but it just clear on my lips. nw 45/46

Your swatch has convinced me that I do not need Tats. Eugenie does not look very dark here. I am not going to spend a great deal of effort to get it. If it sells out fast I won't be upset. Bianca looks a bit like chalk. I know it too won't work for me. Thanks for helping me write my list.not the best swatches. the gloss is on top, you can see a little golden sparkle in the first pic, but it just clear on my lips. nw 45/46

Very pretty. I forgot that I even had Charlotte. I guess I need to show it some love.

I am leaning in the same direction. I only wanted Eugenie but I have TTT, Charlotte, Acai, Rebel, Dark Room, and others that I can't think of at the moment.

I would pick this over the permanent clear gloss, because it feels less sticky I just wish it was in a tube and not a pot.

yes bianca looks like chalk with a pale lilac undertone. Eugenie is not as dark as I thought it would be, but its not that much lighter than ttt. Can you check them out in store first. I didn't purchase any of them, but im eyeing tats, charlotte, and eugenie. Im also thinking I can skip them if I feel the need to get it right away.

Call me crazy but Mac seems to keep recycling the same shades under different names over and over again. They are lacking creativity.

I agree, they need to release something unexpected and fun vs the same red, pink and dark red every collection lol.
