I am a glitter lover too! Someone please tell me that I DO NOT need a fullsize jar of ORANGE pigment! I am on the fence about Off the Radar, but I already have firespot so I am hoping I can skip it!

I am thinking the MSFs and e/s are more likely to sell out first, so I am going to consentrate on those. If I have money left over, I may get the pigments. Hopefully those will stick around for awhile (at least the 1-2 that I want!

)

Re: Flashtronic

Audreynicole, why not ask your mac artist for a sample of off the radar? Thats what I do since I barely use pigments anyway

I got a sample of every color from the collection (granted not large sizes)

Re: Flashtronic

That's so weird!! France has already got the collection??!!... I was told by Mac (UK) today it's being released here in August!!

Re: Flashtronic

quarry just looks pretty, reminds me of earth in a pot ;-) also if i can spot one like hoanganhcali's pic above, i may have a good selection of blue and brown individual colors. i may have to see these in person, i am not planning on buying any e/s.

Not quite as disco ball as Naked You but definitely real chunks in there. That said, I DO intend to buy Nornthern Lights and Lovestone. They're gorgeous. Global Glow was sooooo much like Shooting Star to me I had to really look at it to see difference. Differences = more glitter in the GG than in SS (for me at least). Anyone not liking glitter or sparkles should prepare for disappointment in these, I would say. Even the shadows have some glitter in them.

NOOOOOO! :[
glitter is pretty and all, but not for my face.
thanks for the info!

Re: Flashtronic

Anybody know when they'll have it up on the site?? I thought it was supposed to be today!

 

[Winthrop44]

Re: Flashtronic

Probably very soon. The lipsticks and pigments from Rushmetal are already shown in their categories

 

[gabi1129]

Re: Flashtronic

the MSF and M e/s are also in thier categories.

 

[Rushch6]

Re: Flashtronic

I placed my order and they are officially up on the website now.

Re: Flashtronic

I am curious about how Gold Spill will appear on a NC20. Can't wait! I definately want Northern Light and maybe a lipglass? And maybe Lovestone, but I have to see how the color payoff is.

Germany has both Flashtronic and Rushmetal out since monday too, which is weird because we usually get things late but last year with She Shines we were early too (UK as well) ...

Ether is a good deal lighter than Plumage and shimmery of course. Oh, and I hated most of the pigments

It's now up on the site...Just placed an order...Go check it out....

 

[malialoke]

Re: Flashtronic

Just placed my order, too. I think this is the first time I've been compelled to spend extra for overnight shipping -- I just couldn't imagine not being able to play with this stuff this weekend. (Here's hoping the UPS guy and the office of my apartment building cooperate in getting the package to me as quickly as MAC does...)

hmmm..

maybe it has something to do with the novel twist collection? so whatever country does not get novel twist gets their rushmetal and flashtronic early?

ps: lol @ the swatches on mac website. they are hilariously bad. (i thought their MSF swatches used to be a little better)

They ARE terrible! If it wasn't for Specktra, my $100 plus (plus) order from these collections would have been about 20 bucks. I hope I get home earlier than my fiance on the day this package arrives!

Re: Flashtronic

Are there any colors in Flashtronic that you think just don't exist anywhere else in MAC collections? Obviously there are different pearls, but I'm talking about the base color . . . I really don't feel like buying six shadows I can't depot . . . any good dupes, preferably with less shimmer?
