I'm in agreement - some gorgeous colours there, but if they need a base AND powder shadow over the top, what's the point?

Putting a powder shadow over the top changes the colour, even if only slightly, so might as well use something different in the first place.

Had they been Paint Pots, I'd have been all over them.

I agree with the rest of you, the colours are beautiful! I really want a darker more coppery PP. *goes googling in search of the next best thing*

Such a waste for beautiful colours. Why couldn't they just added these to the paint pot collection? It would've been much better for them to have these in the paint pot formula. Atleast they would not crease and can be used as an eyeshadow base or just as an eyeshadow by it self.

I can't spend the whole morning trying to get them to work, I've to go to work at some point!
 
Such a pity. Like nunu said, gorgous colours - but such a waste to use them in a crappy product!

[/quote] Completely agree, they wasted a lot of gorgeous colours on a not so great product. I cannot imagine the average makeup user will love them a lot, probably might make them think MAC is producing inferior products. Compared to the Chanel and Guerlain liquid eyeshadows they are really just a waste of time. And they look very messy in their pots. Too bad, the colours look great.

Yes! If these were paint pots, I'd break the bank for them for sure :)

Wow what a fail this collection is turning out to be! I'm so disappointed as there are some colours i've dreamed of but not this crappy formula. I'm still going to swatch them when they come out but they look soooo runny! They kinda remind me of the ELF liquid eyeshadows in the tube which i have. I'm going to actually use mine and play around with them and hopefully these MAC ones aren't doomed! Why would they not make them like paint pots or the same texture as the Benefit creaseless ones? Those were a huge success!

The more I see of these the more they remind me of the Rimmel 8hr Colour Mousse Shadows - they have seem to have a very similar liquidy look/texture

I actually really like it - once it's set it lasts for a good few hours and the metallic colour is really strong - it does crease a bit but it's not that bad
