Ditto. The Boudoir stuff was pretty, but it was all packaging. Just lipstick in there, after all. And I'm a de-tuber, so what's the point? Skippin'.

it is when you think about how much other stuff you can buy with that £40!

Yes, unless it has actual diamonds encrusted in it. Or moizenite, good quality CZ, or something realistically imitating diamonds...

After the pics, it looks like a skip for me, too, though I don't hate it. May get the dark lipstick..

And I do like that bag... Are those available for individual purchase? or is it with a brush or something usually?

I mean there are sexy elements in the designs of the products but I have to love what the design is on lol. This will be the first luxe collection I experience and Im not to impressed maybe that will change when I see swatches.

Looks like a skip for me, yes. But product pics are always off.

To me, the compacts look like they are supposed to emulate diamonds, but on the other hand they also look like multi-dimensional umbrellas

I think the design is pretty cool. The compact especially. I might pick up a lip gloss. But the compact is too much $$ for what it is.

Aww that's sweet!

And yes, I saw them.

I freaking love those!!!! Unfortunately, I believe D&G test on animals, so it's a no-go for me.

But, all of them are SUPER gorgeous- definitely splurge worthy, IMO.
yes.gif
And, I think ANYONE can pull off purple- just has to be the right purple for them. I can do things like Go For It, but colors like Fashion Mews look awful on me.
yes.gif
But yes- I've had dreams about that collection.

"something called Air of Style Scent Concentrate" sounds interesting, but I'll most likely only get a lipglass or lipstick.. everything else is a pass for me. I'm not crazy about the packaging.

I like the packaging and I'm SO glad MAC has decided not to yet again make the Sheer Mystery Powders with that compass like compact. Super excited to see something new but it does look kinda bulky.
