I still love EVERYTHING I bought from this collection. Which is, uh, pretty much everything. No polishes or baby poop (Creme Cerise).

Last time I had a day off work, I wore Kirsch with Jampacked. Nom nom nom... With a dark purple smoky eye.

So much love. I make sure to exfoliate the lips with a mix of honey and sugar pre-mattene, though. Otherwise, it's not so hot.

Well, why don't you all just prance around in your purple lips and rub it in already? I will stick to my pinks, thank you. Poo.

Creme Cerise is turning out to be a favorite lippie of mine. It doesn't look good in the tube at all but I've worn it with liquer gloss and love it. It's a great day time look and goes well w/all 3 palettes.

My biggest regret of this collection is So Scarlett. I'm NW 15-20 and when I wear it, I feel that all I see are my lips. No way can I wear this to work, it's more of a nightime/going out look for me. I find everything else in this collection very wearable for day or night.

I am also very happy with what I bought from CoC. The other week I was at the MAC counter and looked at the Tempting Quad again - I am so glad I didn't get it, although I really wanted it! NYX Lime Juice seems like such a dead on dupe for Sharp, and the other colours I already own (or dupes of them). Still a bit bummed about Spiced Chocolate quad though...

I do not know if someone posted this already, but the music in the CoC video is „The Living Things“ featuring Jesca Hoop.

Hopefully I am loosing my tan soon so I can finally wear the CoC stuff.

Hi everyone,

I am a new mac addict and startet with mac the same time the cult of cherry collection came out, but I didn't bought the three quads at the same time, so I missed the spiced chocolate quad here in Germany and it is sold out at the mac counter and at the mac store so I had to buy it on ebay.
I am a little bit confused because the quads I've got directly from mac are about 6 g and .20 us oz but the quad from a ebay seller in the states is about 5.2 g and .18 us oz.
Are there different sizes of the quads out there? I am really sad about the difference of weight, because the spiced chocolate one is my favourite but I just waited to long to get it here

I have never heard about different weights in quads
hmm.gif

I hope you got a real quad - there are so many MAC fakes on ebay

But sorry I can't help you more.

The quad looks so real. The Packaging is exactly like my tempting and shadowy lady quads. The only difference is the weight and the "M"-Number on the bottom. The 6 g quads are both a "M68" and the 5.2 g quad is a "M78"

I hope I can find a 6 g quad somewhere because I think I'll use this colours a lot

Edit:
Here are my Numbers of the three quads
Tempting: M68 / Barcode: M24K64 7 73602 166732 (via Mac Counter) / 6g
Shadowy Lady: M68 / Barcode: M24K63 73602 166725 (via Mac Counter) / 6g
Spiced Chocolate: M78/ Barcode: M73F13 7 73602 162796 / 5.2g

I asked one seller at ebay who also sells 5.2 g quads (some sell 6 some 5.2) and he/she
said, that the 5.2 g quads are sold in the US. Now I am confused

i have all three quads, and i bought them directly from the mac store. the spiced chocolate quad does weigh less (5.2 g/.18 oz) than the other 2 quads (6 g/.20 oz.). my tempting & spiced chocolate quads have M78 stamped on it. the shadowly lady quad has M68 on it.

i don't think you should worry about the authenticity of your spiced chocolate quad. as you can see it has correct weight on it and the batch numbers (M68/M78) vary by quad.

that's normal. regular small mac eyeshadows weight either 1.3g or 1.5g. so when they are made into quads, the weight can vary between 5.2 to 6g depending on the quad. i have a few quads that are 5.2g
