If you're going to release a brightly colored collection, make sure the quality is there. C-Shock was a great example of this. Bright colors that showed up on your eye as well as in the pan and sold really well because of this.

i don't know about C-Shock as i didn't even wear makeup around that time, but i have to agree because i think with these shadows the problem is that you have to pack them on-- same with Style Warriors (i'm looking at YOU Vibrant Grape and Bright Future), although i don't know how that collection was received in the end.
after a little packing on, Haunting and Maira's Mood look sooo nice, but why do i have to pack it on? and i was so excited to get Off the Page, but i cannot get it to show up on me for nothing. that was so disappointing especially since i wanted a new orange so bad.
and a little addendum to my original opinion, i'm wondering if part of the problem is the mac MAs? i never got a chance to ask the DM (and i didn't bother since i was already holding her up), but if someone sees a color that bright, it would help to tell them how they can wear it. the average person might look at Haunting like
, but when i wore it i it with Graphology and Freshwater and it was amazing and the brightness of Haunting along with the satin finish made it such an great wear.
meh, what do i know about business.
