I like the look of it

 

[Ejka]

I like it too. The only downside is that there is at least 1 repromote & 1 perm e/s (plus light champagne-gold colours have a tendency to be dupable as well)... Luckily, I didn't get Et tu, bouquet (I didn't particularly like it) with Rose Romance, I don't own Brule and I'm currently really into greens so, for me, this quad still has the potential to be unique enough to warrant a purchase.

I have to co-sign everything you say. Et tu, bouquet and Brule sound a bit boring, but nice for my skintone. champagne-gold - ultra boring, but still works. greens - loooooooove. if anything, I know that this quad will look good on me, even if it doesn't seem overly exciting and I really wanna concentrate on what fits me instead of 'weeeeee, pretty color, who cares I'll look like shit in it!' at the moment

and considering the usual quads, this one really is unique. plus, I like that Et tu, bouquet reviews mention it's greyishness. pinks and greys are right up my alley!

If that is the quad, that means I can likely skip this collection too. I am disappointed

It's the only thing I wanted.

I had Et Tu Bouquet and it had a horrible texture. It was like a bad lustre, and SUPER frosty.

Thanks! How different is it from Luna CCB? I have that, although I find I have to work with it a lot to get the effect I want, so even if they're similar, I might grab the paint pot.

Hm...that quad doesn't look too enticing to me. Not super excited for this yet. I'm guessing there really won't be anything for my skintone here, but we'll see.

Me neither. At all, actually.

 

[kiss]

Id rather get real caviar than the caviar dreams quad haha.

I bet the Chilled on Ice paintpot will be whitish. I am still a paint pot virgin lol. Iam interested in what the Rose Ole highlight powder will be like...

 

[laylalovesmac]

I'm dying for this color story now!!! All I know is that I want that quad and Feline. Come on, MAC! Make me want to give you my money

I was hoping the quad had a good color payoff.

Thank you, Audrey.

*headdesk* Excuse me while I go sulk in the corner...

 

[katred]

I'm expecting that, among the repromotes, we might see Bubbles l/s. It was repromoted earlier this year, but it seems thematically linked...

 

[User38]

I have not had any samples of Bubbles -- if it does get reprod, it might be in summer collex

I totally get what you mean. Only after 3 years of hoarding every imaginable bold/bright/'unique' colour (usually without questioning if I'm gonna wear it often enough or even if it looks good on me), have I grown to appreciate simple, sophisticated, no-fuss neutrals. People change, tastes change and one of the best things about make up is that there are countless options and inspirations to suit individual’s current mood, style or aesthetic.

For me, the jury is still out on Caviar Dreams. If the khaki and the champagne-gold colours are amazing (pigmentation, finish and colour-wise) and not too similar to something I already own, I might get it. In general, I can see it being more appealing to ‘new collectors’, who do not own heaps of neutrals, and those who prefer light, office-friendly, complementary shades (with a green kick

). Anyways, can’t wait to see official product descriptions & swatches.

It does seem like it would fit, but I don't think it will be promoted. I think it'll be like Queen's Sin and VV. Everyone was expecting it, but it's not gonna happen. Which is fine for me. I already bought Bubbles and still have plenty left. I can't decide if I like it or not.

 

[shontay07108]

Mac doesn't always repromote the obvious, for whatever reason. Hey, we all thought Feline would def be in the FF collection and it wasn't. I've been putting off buying Brule. Should I get it? I was thinking it would just be redundant since I have tissueweight, ricepaper, dazzlelight, retrospeck...but maybe I should pick it up.

I really hate when they put a perm or repromoted shade that I have in a quad. That's part of the reason why I skipped BB in the Fab Felines collection. I already had showstopper.
