Which pink re you reffering to?
Hot Frost Sheer mid-tone blue pink with multi-dimensional pearl
Splendid Frosty pale pinky coral
For the pink l/g i'm not sure of a perm item maybe Lychee Luxe lipglass

. A dupe as an LE item the coral one that came out in the Manish collection.

I already have climate blue from cool heat, from the swatches it looks like Creme di violet, satelilte dreams, violet and pink pearl pigment can be used, also the colours in the pink/purple Heatherette trio.

Its like they are showingt off the mirror more than the actual shadows LOL

also...
they didnt list the lipstick finishes. Whats up with that? People base their lipstick buying decisions based on the finish (I wouldnt buy a lusture for example)

They didn't list the finishes on the website? Anyway Kanga-Rouge and Coral Polyp are amplified cremes while Gladiola is matte. HTH.

I asked for Hot Frost.Is it similar to Starlet Kiss

?tx a lot

 

[AdlersMommy22]

argh.. i think i decided just to get coral polyp and splendid after seeing the lip swatches- im just sick of seeing them on JUST lips.. why doesnt anyone ever take them with their whole face??? Its so much easier to see how its going to look if i can see it on the whole face of someone...........

argh. Im really dissapointed with gladiola and hot frost

I mentioned it earlier, but Hot Frost is a darker, more medium pink than Starlet Kiss.

 

[Miss QQ]

Hmm...

. Hot Frost looks quite sheer on the lips swatch so maybe it wouldn't show much on my lips.

 

[jeffreygirl]

I really wanted to get the lip glasses, but since their not discounted 'due to special packaging'

I'm having second thoughts.

I was going to skip this collection entirely, but may get Vericose violet nail lacquer. It looks like a fun colour. I am actually happy to have a collection come around that doesn't appeal to me at all.

 

[Kayraphat]

I'm really not impressed by latest collections , except Holiday ... Dame Edna, even tho there is awesome packaging, didn't wow me. Lipglasses are sheer, powders are MATTE and the lipsticks are too bright for me.

 

[minni4bebe]

So I went to the MAC store today and I must say, I was very dissapointed. Nothing appealed to me at all and the trio's weren't much fun to look at. I'm passing...

I just got home from MAC with all of the lipglasses and Kanga-Rouge lipstick. The colors looked really pretty swatched on my hand and I can't wait to wear them. While the packaging is nice (love the purple), the stickers on my products are already peeling off :-(. I'm kind of upset, but I guess I'll just have to be careful so that they don't come off completely.

 

[VDUB*BELLA]

I know I want something to just add it to my collection. This packaging is so cute but I just feel like I am trying to force myself to like something. Grrr dont know what to do. I got tons of MAC gift cards for Christmas but I rather spend it on HK or BBR

 

[Little Addict]

I was coming up with my Xmas money shopping list and noticed something ...

did anyone else figure out that the colors for the Royal Tour trio are almost exact dupes for the kat von d beethoven pallete?

but surprisingly I still want it ... maybe I just want something from this collection and nothing is doing it for me ... oh well

No one reads my posts. I showed pictures of that a few pages back and no one commented.

 

[GlamQueen21]

I tried purchasing Kanga Rouge lipstick and Hot Frost lipglass but I got an e-mail from MAC saying that it couldn't process my order even though I have some money in my card at that time. Maybe I'll get the lipgloss now and get the lipstick tomorrow instead or wait until I get paid next week.

Me too. I really wanted to get something, but so far, nothing appeals to me. I'll just get BBR when it comes out.

Same here, I'm totally skipping this & spending my $150 MAC gift card on BBR & Kitty Kouture, nothing is calling to me from Dame Edna even though I think the packaging is cute.

 

[Escada]

Could somebody post the swatches of Divine Knight next to Night Divine so I could see the difference?

When I called and ordered mine from a store, they gave me my discount. Uh-uh, I'd be calling stores in every state until I found one that would give me my discount, and I would raise hell while doing it! Don't come in between me and my MAC! (I called the pro store in NY, and they gave me mine.)
