Yeah I think she was just lying so I would still get the new small pigments. Honestly, I can't see myself buying the new ones. And if there really are stupid people who were complaining that they are too big - piggies are supposed to be a multi-purpose product for professionals who need lots of pigment. ugh.

Yeah that does sound like a load of horse dookie.

If there are people out there happy about it, well they are pretty brainless considering the accompanying price hike baked into the cake.

"Oh yes please, make me pay more for less!" *bends over* "Thank You! May I have another?"

um... no

This made me laugh.

 

[MUALindsay]

Seriously... I'd rather them have just put the 4.3g in the original jar, that is if SOMETHING had to change... HATE the jar more than I hate the lesser amount.

 

[GlamQueen21]

^Me too! 3 of my pigments are 4.3g and the rest are 7.5g. I want MAC to keep the old jars!!!! I love them to death!!

Totally off topic but purplerinne I love the nail polish that you have on in the picture you took. What color are you wearing?

The MA at MAC tonight said that the new piggies have the same amount, but it just "looks" less b/c of the shape of the jar, and I was like rigghhhhtttt.... lol. Can't pull the wool over a specktrettes head

i think that's what MAC told the MA's. they did the same thing for dazzleglasses, the trainers told MA's they have the same amount of product as regular lipglasses (less weight, less volume, so... exactly how?!). apparently the mac philosophy has changed to lie to customers to make them happy

you'd think with less product and redesigning the packaging, they'd at least give us a more practical packaging, if not more visually pleasing. seriously, tall and thin jars with screw + pull lid for a loose pigment product is the best they could do?! or are they just hoping to maximize the possibility of spillage.

More spillage = more need to buy backups = higher profit

Oh I am so bitter.

 

[Shadowy Lady]

yep no more MAC pigments for me. I have all the ones I need anyway and I will not be supporting this change of jar BS

 

[LMD84]

i have now decided that i am not getting even one of the pigments anymore. i am so dissapointed and upset over the whole thing

you know it's bad when i skip pigments!!!!

 

[omgitzstephanie]

Yeah, the only reason I will ever buy a pigment again is if they re-promote CoCo, or Sweet Sienna.

 

[coachkitten]

I am just going to get samples from now on. I am sad and upset with the change.

 

[caramel_geek]

As much as I loveeeee mac pigments, I'm definitely not getting anymore pigments until they change the packaging to something more practical

 

[Hypathya]

I've couldn't be in here this past days and now i find this!!!

I'm SO ANGRY, BITTER AND MAD!!!

I was still giving hope...

The new packaging is so nasty.

It seriously will become a huge problem of spillage, busted organization and ick!!! this is so sad... plus I can't really stand the price increase... makes me feel so outraged.

The lowest part is I was today at my pro store in hopes to back up my beloved teal (that has less than 1/4 left) and there wasn't any...

I'm so sad and disappointed... there were so few shades I could only get one new. Not that I have a lot of pigments but I wanted to get those shades I've wanted for ages and now I can't. I'm so SAD, ANGRY, BITTER, MAD, DISAPPOINTED.

You know what else makes me annoyed is the stomach ad I constantly see on every page of specktra, nothing makes me more excited then seeing someone squeeze their belly fat every time I want to read about makeup. No offense.

I was planning on getting a couple of Rich Life and a Universal Mix.. But now, I won't. I will probably order 1 Rich Life, and thats it (and really, if I had a MAC near me, I would probably just go test and see how I felt rather than automatically buying it).. When I initially found out about the new packaging, I made a list of all the pigments I wanted and planned to go buy them in the large sizes before they sold out.. However, now that I think about it.. Why bother? If I haven't bought them yet, I probably don't need them.
