MAC Après Chic Collection Discussion (December 2012)

[liba]

One thing though...Apres Chic l/s is described as a pinky brick red...? I can't imagine what that would look like. Does anyone have any idea? I think of brick reds as being sort of burnt red but I think I'm missing something.

If it's the one in the promo picture (and chances are it is), it's sort of a deeper, more brick version of Fire Sign in color. It was very pretty!

Isn't it funny that the description of the MES all say "with veining."

Let the hunting begin. "Mirror, mirror, on the wall, which MES has the best veining of them all."

I'm exhausted already

Who am I kidding I've never gotten away without at least two mes from a collection.

 

[liba]

I know what I'm interested in. Ones in BOLD are for sure:


Lipstick Hot Chocolate – Mid-tone plum (Satin) - Mid-tones and plums are always good on me and I like that this is a Satin. Will hold off if it's too normal, though.
Cozy Up – Deep caramel (Matte) - I love that this is matte! Mineralize Tinted Lip Balm Pure & Tender – Plumy creamy nude - Plummy nude sounds so perfect for my lip tone!
Nice & Simple – Bronzy gold with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments - This just sounds gorgeous.
Rosy Romance – Bluish plum with subtle pink pearlized pigments - Probably gorgeous too - the sparkle in these is just the right amount of glam, from what my MA kept saying. Mineralize Eye Shadow Frost at Midnight – Deep blue-grey base with purple veining - the photos we have makes this color look fantastic and unlike any other MES I've got, but will have to be seen in person. Mineralize Blush Alpine Bronze – Mid-tone caramel - if it works for my skin tone, it's a definite buy! Brush 287 Brush – Duo Fibre Eye Shadow Brush (Natural / Synthetic Fibre) - Curious about this.

Oooo that does sound interesting. I'm thinking snow white lips

Looks like the description of 1 lipstick is missing.

The girl in the photo had huge, luscious lips. They were super glossy too, so I'm sure the plum gloss was applied on top.

That picture of the products seems to have an extra lipstick in it, but take my confirmation - there are only 5 lipsticks in this collection (at least from what it says in the book).

This is better than I thought! And, btw, I LOVE those names!!!!

Do we have a release date on this collection for Europe?

From Mineralize Eye Shadows I like only one colour, so I will probably skip them all.

Mineralize Skinfinish
Porcelain Pink – Soft pinky coral with gold veining °
Stereo Rose – Coral with golden-bronze shimmering nuances °
Mineralize Blush
