MAC Middle Eastern Lipsticks Shade Extension Discussion (Fall 2012)

[glammy girl]

At least you get to see all the swatches and have plenty of time to decide. But the grass is always greener on the other side

That's so true, I do get plenty of time to decide what I'm gonna pick up way before they even get here but the wait lol, not fun

 

[PixieDancer]

Don't count, it objectifies (and proves) the fact that we are addicted. Why not Tabla also?

I can't completely count out Table, but I definitely won't order it without trying it on... something about the swatches just isn't grabbing me...
AND not to mention I am SERIOUSLY trying to cut back on my lipstick obsession!! And my blush obsession. And my eyeshadow obsession. And my.... you get where I'm going with this! HAHA

I really like it that the US gets collections first. This way it's easier for me to cross things off my list! But the wait... not so much obviously.

Yup. I love that the US gets collections first. Always gives me time to decide and cross things off my list. I hate wasting money and have no way to get to a counter/store so rely on swatches. I am jealous of US prices though in comparison.

Mehr is fantastic! I wore it 2 days in a row this weekend! I like it better than Brave (which has been my go-to for years)!!
The matte formula didn't dry out my lips at all. But I do always use P&P Lip, so that may have helped.

Really? I love Brave . I really like opaque mattes in the fall/winter. I have a bunch of BTM items. I'll have to check this one out. Brave and Twig are my fall 'pinks' and I'm liking Captive to. How different is Mehr?

I'm going to try Tabla. If I like it, I might B2M for it.

This one is sort of fascinating to me, but I really can't imagine that it'll work with my colouring- the wrong brown can be terribly aging on me. I think the main fascination I have is that I never believed Yash would work on me, but it looks good, so it's making me hold out hope.

The originals aren't drying at all. That was the collection where Mac seemed to update its matte formula to the current wonderful one that it has for all limited collections.

Yash seems to work on a lot of palies. I like it a lot!

Love Brave and ordered Mehr last week -- now I have to check out Twig!

 

[duckrodeo]

I'm soooo tempted to order these online. Must resist and B2M some of my stash of empties.

 

[honey on boost]

Wearing mehr now.. It's just perfect!

Has anyone seen these in stores yet??

I live in a very populated city (San Francisco) and none of my stores, including a PRO one, has received these lippies yet! Are they not released in stores?

I believe they'll be in stores Sept. 13.

This collection has me checking sites, daily. I have half a tube of Mehr left, and can't imagine my makeup bag without it. God, I love that shade, and finish. Sexxxxy!

You do know it's on MAC's site now right?

ETA: Well, it's on the U.S site but I see you're not in the US. Have you checked your MAC site? They're mixed in with all the other lippies.

I got mine from MAC Canada yesterday, they came up late last week. There was nothing to note they had arrived. I just looked under lipsticks and they were there.

UGHHH i really want to try these lipsticks versus ordering them offline!! I called two counters yesterday and they said that they are only being released at Mac STORES not counters?

........ *rolls eyes* SIGH

 

[sfmakeup]

My Mehr should be here tomorrow!! I don't have the original Mehr but I will let you girls know what I think!

 

[LMD84]

mehr is the only one i will be getting. i'm pretty happy that it is going to be part of the perm line i think it will be a pretty daytime lipstick for me

Well at least they knew what you were talking about! I saw them online so I went to my local MAC store (not a counter) and asked about them and 2 different MUA's told me that Mehr was Limited Edition and was not coming back. Guess I will wait a few days and try again! Seems I never get accurate info from the stores.
