If you mean the collection that had Naked, and then the nude Dark and Deep Dark pigments (I think that was what they were called), that came out a while back. It was pro only, and I think it came out in May. Maybe! I'm not sure as I have no access to a pro store.

My thoughts:

1. CORAL - it's been all about coral in every shade and tone this year. Even when a collection wasn't really pushing coral, it was the shade that everyone pounced on (Like Jazzed in ItG). Even people like me who were always wary of coral found a new love for this color. Every cosmetics company has been on this trend, although it seems like MAC is the only one taking it forward another notch into fall and winter.

2. STRONG CHEEKS - All these years we've all been avoiding bright blush, thinking it was too harsh, too old fashioned, etc. This year, slowly but surely, everything changed and the brighter the better, thanks to new formulas that take the stress out. In this department, MAC has single-handedly brought the thunder, with standouts like Two Virtues and Bi-Tone to Marine Life, Band of Roses with Bite of an Apple and the Tartan Tales collections still to come. This trend is a real game changer - we are officially out of the 90's and '00s and everyone else is gonna have to play catch up.

Looking forward, I think next year blush is going to get even more powerful and glam and I also think coral is going to trend into glorious, in your face red and orange. I also think there is going to be an undercurrent of blue-based purples and generally cooler tones, but that that won't really get going until later in 2011. All those dreams for true purple and lavender blushes are gonna come true, girls and we're going to finally get back to silver, but now in formulas and shades that work for everyone!

What do you think is coming up?


liba, from what I see in my testers, I agree with all you said. The coral trend will continue and be stronger still with more red mixes.. i.e. Bite of an Apple is a strong coral/red.. Plums will also be very strong -- i.e. Band of Roses and other shades coming up are quite plummy (I cannot give names since I don't deal much with the names but the actual colors). Fuschia and hot pinks for both mouth and lips will also be very prominent.. and great mixes of hot pink corals for both lips and cheeks.

True purple? I am right now testing a lip marker which is totally transparent but is a mid tone purple -- it is gorgeous and leaves a mid tone stain on the lips. I cannot say who will be putting their brand on this, but will do so when I myself am sure. There is a gorgeous deep plum too... and a true purple blush

Textures will be very important too -- I see a very marked trend towards transparency -- colors will be very loud, bright but transparent so the changes in technology will be very interesting... oh yes, very interesting things coming up

I agree. Many companies have been producing bright products that turn out to be quite sheer and seriously beautiful! For example, the new NARS Multiple Tints and Chanel Gloss Fluos. I hope this trend continues onto MAC!

Nice stuff there, HerGreyness!!! I spent my 20's as a clothing designer, doing avant guard knit wear and custom work for videos and film. There was nothing more fun that looking at all the trends and then trying to think up the exact opposites in color, texture and silhouette. Sometimes being too far ahead of the trends had its pitfalls (like tops you couldn't wear a bra with in the age of the super push-up bra), but it was always a cool creative justification when you'd see things you were doing on well known designers' runways 2 or 3 years after you did the same.

I left clothing for a few different reasons (mostly good ones), but I still can't help smelling out those trends. Thanks for letting me know I still haven't lost my touch!

More coral? More purple? It looks like the streak of nude-ish trend is over (well, not completely - with collections like Cham Pale ahead of us) - it makes my color-fearing soul sad

I want soft pink blushes with BPB formula (Ah Shy Beauty, how I love thee!), some GPS in reasonable colors (but I am not saying I do not like the blackened ones, no I ain't
winks.gif
), sculpt&shape duos to find a better match for me and some new shades of fluidlines and paintpots which is the only thing of which I miss bright colors

Oh, and of course to top it all, I would please like to have more money to be able to buy it all
lol.gif


Sigh, I guess I will have to step out of my gold-green-brown corner and try to be more adventurous...
blush-anim-cl.gif
Or, OR I can be content and play with my stash and SAVE money! .... Wait. That, that wouldn't work, right?
nope.gif
I am too weak! I know I will end up with whatever looks at least a little bit interesting... I am such an addict

So enough said, bring on the new trends! I will fight with all my might to resist but if I go down, my wallet goes with me!

I have no idea what we'll see, but I know what I'd like to see!

- More Beauty Powder Blushes
- New Paint Pots
- New Greasepaint Stick colors
- Starflash Eyeshadows (I'd LOVE deep jewel tones)
- New Fluidline colors
- More Blush Ombres!
- MSF's with the texture/finish of Refined and Perfect Topping
- Pearlglide Eyeliners (minus the "intense" glitters of this last release)
- New Cremesheen Glass colors

Color-wise, I'd just like to see more new shades and less re-promotes. MAC always does a good job of bringing new and unique things to the customer, so I have no doubt that we'll see more innovation next year!

All I want is to find a true red lipstick and matching gloss. Not coral, not pink, not berry....DARK FRIGGEN RED! I don't understand why it's the most impossible color to come by.

Yes to all of those!
th_DANCE.gif
Exactly the things I want more of. Also new paints would be nice. I still want that metallic, almost wet looking deep black e/s that I was talking about earlier. Pressed and pigment forms please.
yes.gif
And I hope we'll see some light and/or bright coloured greasepaint sticks.
