I agree! I would buy that up, too!

MAC and Alice in Wonderland should be awesome. I won't complain if it's part of the Tim Burton inspired collection. I love to see whimsical, bizarre, playful, and beautiful kinda collection.

I also love to see some jewel tones collection for eyeshadow and eyeliner (pearlglide liner?). Colors like: emerald green, amethyst purple, ruby red, sapphire blue, tourmaline green, turquoise blue, and etc. Or all VP eyeshadow collection with jewel tones?

This one was already done, but I am happy if MAC bring back a BPB collection.

My Stark Naked looks lonely here.

Probably cliche but I would love a MAC Tim Burton collaboration. I would buy EVERYTHING. SERIOUSLY. EVERY DAMN THING. TIMES TWO.

and maybe the packaging can be separated into two too.. Like one's the Alice line and the one's the Red Queen's line and the happy blues can all be with Alice - they could so earn big bucks with this one.

ooo turquoise blue! whoa! I'm thinking faux gems and the works...

I know I'm probably going to get bricked and killed but I wish MAC would do less min. products and more real colours. :X


Laylalovesmac: XD -dies laughing- I'll buy just as long as it's ALICE ALICE ALICE! WOOO!

I think I'd really like to see an Egyptian themed collection...talk about some amazing make-up inspiration! Golds, teals, rich deep jewel tones, dramatic liner, gorgeous luminous golden/bronzey skin.

Most of it probably wouldn't even work for my skintone, but I think it could be stunning anyway!

LOL. I would buy a lot of Alice, but I would buy everything from, like, Corpse Bride, Nightmare Before Christmas, or Edward Scissorhands. The gloomy colors are what I love.

But, I also love the bright ones from Alice in Wonderland.

That would be a stunning collection! Unfortunately, I can't pull off many golds or teals, but I could totally get behind some jewel greens and purples.

Why would I not be excited about Alice In Wonderland??

I also passed the OPI collection and did not watch the movie with Johnny Depp.

I think as a child I never understood this story. It was even a bit frightening for me....

If I'm being honest, I fell asleep during the original movie. Actually, I have fallen asleep trying to watch it every time I try. I didn't see the new one, but I know the color palette, and I could definitely get behind it.

Also, I love the eyelashes they use on Johnny Depp.

Egyptian themed collection sounds amazing.

And I also agree with your last sentence.

You have some serious ideas. I love it!

Thank you.

Everyone is different. I'm glad you voiced your opinion.

Maybe swatches will change your mind? A beauty powder in a super gorgeous special packaging? Like the one from GMLOL?

On my cheeks it just looks liked shimmery mud (I'm NW25). I gave it my mom who's NC20 and she uses it as eyeshadow. That's the only way that MSF is workable for anyone under NC44 IMO. I also wouldn't contour with it coz I personally don't like shimmery contour, an I want my contour to be slightly darker than my skin, not much darker

yes more unique beauty powders would be fabulous!

Hrm...if I could choose my own Mac line theme...I'll just throw some out there:

Rocky Horror
Anime (Yes, I know we had Hello Kitty, but that doesn't count!)
Steampunk
Vampires/Witches (played out, I know, but I love em)
Lady Gaga (based on her music video looks)
An all duo-chrome line of e/s, lippies, and nail polish
Japanese and/or Chinese theme

How much fun would the Rocky Horror promos be??!! I'd buy everything in a Egyptian collection and I'd love to see the reds and jewel-tones of a Japanese/Chinese collection.

Different opinions make human interaction interesting...but please don't fart on my rainbows.

OMG this is one of the funniest things I have heard in long time!

I love your posts!

OMG, all of your ideas are great!

I'd love a Vamp/Witch collection too (played out or not, love it!). A Japanese/Chinese collection would rock my world too...maybe even Geisha related? Oh man, I'd flip over that.

Actually, they've toyed with some of those ideas..

Rocky Horror had a VERY Limited Edition Red Lipstick [can't even remember the name. Maybe some of the oldbies can help me out...]

I want a Lady Gaga collection too. Knowing her it'd be a collection based around the GLBT community of homeless youth, so the profits could be donated to that cuse.

And someone mentioned an Egyptian collection? The McQueen Collection from Fall '07 was heavily influenced on Egyptian style. His Fall fashion line that year was VERY Egyptian. I'd like to see another go at this too though.

I still want my Batman villainess collection. Harrumph.

Yep! I'd love a collection themed around Egyptian Queens - Cleopatra, Nefertari, Hatshepsut aka The Queen of Sheba, Nefertiti.



Since there are great ideas being thrown in here' my 2 pence....

Themes:
*The Zodiac
*The 7 Deadly Sins
*Brazil Carnival
*A Japanese related collection
*Bollywood related collection
*Middle Eastern/Arabian collection with Kajals!
*A collection inspired by exotic flowers
*A collection inspired by the elements

Now whether I could afford to buy all of the above collections if they were to follow one after an other is another thing, but hey I can dream right?

I don't really know much about Marilyn Manson. My actual reaction was more like this: and then because even though I didn't like Borat that much (and, I must say, it did have some good moments) that would still be a REALLY funny product name, and a great color to go with it! I didn't mean my thanks to lilibat's comment to mean that I don't accept and respect your thoughts! I guess the smiley she used wasn't as close to as I thought! Just because I went doesn't mean that I think it's a bad idea, I just hadn't really ever thought about either of those things before--I'm not that creative and both really sound like fun ideas! So...I am very sorry! ...are we okay, too?

Of course we are okay, no worries dear!

Maybe I understood it all wrong, I don't know because lilibat didn't respond to me.

Like I said before, it is easy to get it wrong if someone didn't explain their thoughts because it is only a screen we are looking at (I thought that smiley means something like "how stupid are you", but maybe it just means this

). Then again, maybe I did get it right, it wouldn't be the first time I get cold ice thrown at me for saying I like Manson (if that's the case here).

I'm sorry everyone I reacted like that, I should've just left it to its unnecessarity.
