Re: matte2 and mattene
I made 2 orders and got graphology so far and it looks black
I'm waiting for clarity and another color I forget the name, it will arrive tomorrow but I love flattering matte l/s.
I see clarity is like electric eel which is a bummer cause I have it already.

Re: matte2 and mattene
I like mattes but I wasn't going to get anything from this collection anytime soon, but I keep hearing how great the texture is so I'm gonna give it a shot. To bad I can't see them in person. I'll have to order online.

Mattene is coming out, for some odd reason, a week after Matte2 in some stores. Every store seems to have their own way of releasing things.

What color is your skin? I picked up the entire collection yesterday and graphology is certainly not black on me. It lies somewhere between Print and Carbon, definitely a dark grey, but not black. But I'm very light (NW20), so maybe on someone with darker skin it would show up black.
Clarity is a lot like EE, but a little less green. It's way better, in my opinion, and the texture is to die for. It's replacing EE in my pallet.

Re: matte2 and mattene
My PRO store didn't receive Fig. 1... They had the 15 others though
They received Mattene and said they couldn't sell it till the 27th and I've confirmed with my store AND Live Chat that AMcQ is not to be released till October 4.

Re: matte2 and mattene
yeah, alot of release dates have changed.
Question for MAC MA's, how is it working with the matte2 shadows? I haven't had a chance to work with them yet. I'm hearing different things.

Re: matte2 and mattene
Out of the shadows I got so far I'm really loving flourishing, I did not think I would when I got it in the mail but at my age I think I can pull off a smokey eye or at least as smokey as someone my age can get away with. It is a dark moss shade but goes on very smooth. I love my lip erase too, very creamy to me and my lips are very dry.

Re: matte2 and mattene
can anyone please post pictures somewhere? Or direct me to the swatch thread for matte2 - and about the mcQueen eyeshadows - how's haunting? I really can't make up my mind about it... So people haunting or newly minted?

I hope all the counters have them out on the 27th. I will be at a counter near me on the 29th for a class and I would really like to try a few and maybe buy. It pains me that they are not on the website since collections are usually on the site the Tuesday before.

I too was thinking, after looking at the swatches, that the reds did not seem so red.

For what it's worth, a few days ago, I chatted online with a MAC artist a little(a very little; she "couldn't talk about it yet") about Mattene, and she told me that it will be at the counters Oct. 4 and on the site October 2.

Yep, I just talked to a group of MAs at my freestanding here in Woodland Hills, CA. They see Mattene will be released the same day as McQueen - Oct 4.
