MAC - Cult of Cherry Discussion

[yoyomofo]

i think the promo shot is very unattractive but i think that's mostly because of the lemon-lime shadow paired with the black shadow and the deep burgundy lips. not at all for me. although the chocolate palette looks nice i probably won't get anything from this collection.

I plan on getting all three quads from this collection. I think there is endless things i can do with the eyeshadows and nothing looks the same in each quad please i dont have any colors like this.

YAY!!!!

I feel the same way! If anything, I'm only picking up one quad from this collection, I don't want ANYTHING from Manish.. Suite Array... a lot of collections. I think you're just at the point, like me, where you're just about done finishing building up your collection. Once I am satisfied with my colors, I won't be buying pretty much anything and I will sit and enjoy the collection I worked so hard to build up.

Because everytime a new collection comes out, I've been wanting less and less.

Why, oh why, can't it be the 21st? I think that MAC looses sales with me by all of this anticipation (not that they care!). At first I wanted all three quads, but now after spending weeks looking at them online and seeing everyone's dups, I am not sure I'll get any but Shadowy Lady. And that's just because I need SL and a new Deep Truth. I like the Tempting quad, but since I have Tempting e/s already and the yellow, honestly, though cool, I'd probably never use, I probably won't get. I'll have to see the Chocolate one in person to decide, but it sounds like most can be duped. Sigh... My wallet is happy, my collection sad.

I think the lipglasses look promising but I'm passing on the quads. I am no longer going to buy a quad because I love one color in it. Especially when the other colors are repromotes.

I think this is the last collection I'm going to buy from until holiday. Sounds unrealistic w/ all these gorgeous collections (Manish Arora, Suite Arrays, Ungaro), I know, but I have just got to issue some self-restraint here!! And this one is too awesome to pass up, especially for ghosties like me!

But I have to leave some money to feed my husband, right?

 

[zeroxstar]

after reviewing the swatches i can't wait for this!!

The Shadowy Lady Quad (after i chuck deep truth), Blooming Blush & Lightly Ripe l/s will be mine!!!

i know what everyone means about money though, being a student sucks! However, i find that in order to support my addiction for new collections I have to sell the stuff i don't use anymore & it's been working so far

Exactly! I think I am nearly done building the collection I used to once dream of. I have all the colors I love. But since I am such a die hard Manish fan, I will be buying that collection. Just not so much of the upcoming ones. But I am excited that I will get a free makeover. lol Those are always nice especially when you have a fantastic MA working your face.

definately getting kirsch and bing mattene. don't remember what rapturous looks like so i gotta check this one out again.

getting jampacked lipglass for sure.

definately getting spiced chocolate quad, and maybe tempting quad. i love the green and LOVE dark edge! its a great dark brown. i got it with the N collection, so another in a quad will be a bonus. next to nothing is a great neutral for highlighting or for an understated all over the lid color. i don't use my tempting that i have now, so i may just give that one away and keep the one in the quad. i'm not feeling the shadowy lady quad-i have deep truth and shadowly lady already, not feeling smudged violet too much, and can live without lightfall. but, this is a possible gratis item, so if i get it, great, if not, i won't buy it.

getting both blushes-gorgeous!

we didn't get to see the nail lacquers at update, so i've gotta check out illegal purple.

would mosscape pp look good under the green from tempting quad? it looks like it could be mossy green and maybe with a little help from the pp, it could?

Definitely! It would make it a little more green than yellow and would be GORGEOUS.

I want Shadowy Lady Quad, Tempting Quad, and Spiced Chocolate. I'm giving my pans of Shadowy Lady and Deep Truth away, I love Next To Nothing, and Nanogold is very pretty so I don't mind those backups. I also really want both blushes and Cherry Blossom!

 

[abbyquack]

Awesome, I'm sold on the tempting quad then! If I get the Shadowy Lady quad, I too am getting rid of sl and replacing it w/ signed, sealed. i found this at a CCO, can't wait to play w/ it with all the CoC colors!! Is next to nothing peachy pinkish or more white?

It sounds like you are basically getting 80% of the collection. Go Erine

.

I just want all the eye shadows. I am not that into lip products.

next to nothing is similar in color to shroom, but without the shimmer.

Ugh, I keep hearing how fabulous these blushes are, but I have 7 of the Sonic Chic ones and haven't touched my regular powder blushes since I got the mineralize ones. Don't they compare to anything else? Even if they don't, someone just lie to me cause I DON'T need anymore blushes!

 

[Twinkle_Twinkle]

Can someone PLEASE swatch the blushes?????????????????

 

[jlew]

I think I want ALL the mattenes and at least one blush. I have not apinted my fingernails in like 5 years...how wrong is THAT?! So, I am all about the dark lipstick with a neutral eye...OK, maybe just ONE quad ( giggle giggle )
