24K gold sounds like a good idea if they can nail it. I'd be all about that. Blues and all those more "out there" colors carry a lot of possibilities, but I was just wondering about other possible shades because I've hoarded so many Mac liners that I don't think any other "normal" color is something I would need. I have just about everything covered. Plus, I don't even use lip liners as much as I should. I'm not saying Mac should stop with lip liners because little old me has more liners than I know what to do with, but I feel like I've seen all the colors I could ever need.

No to mention, I think a lot of the new formulas don't need a liner the way greasier lipsticks of days past did just to prevent feathering and uneven wear. I don't need the 90's to come back, thanks. :p

I want to throw all of my money at the lip products in this collection even though I have a dupe for just about every shade (not the yellow) in Chanel. I'm so ready for warmer weather though that I think I'll get swept away and buy it up anyway. Not interested in the pigments and the casual color products. I hoard them and never use them.
Hey stranger! *waves*

Lol practical was not the first thing I thought of. What about a 24k gold liner or a tiffany blue or even new shades similar to stone. Lipliners themselves can be used to create fantastic lipstick looks.
Obsessive compulsive cosmetics came out with all those really awesome pencils recently!! i want to try them. i think they have a bunch of unconventional colors

I've looked at those at my local Sephora ever since they came out. In fact I looked at them today. I just can't pick a color that I need. I want to try their product to see if it's as good as Mac, but I can't justify it if the colors are the same, you know? That's the problem when you've been buying for years. They have blue but I'll never use that and the black I don't need. I have a black lipstick by Melt cosmetics that's so awesome I don't even need liner for it. Ugh.

Thanks for posting this, Miss0Annette! Really shows off those Casual Colors!

I was seriously on the fence about them, but I actually busted out my original ones the past week and I'm liking them again a lot. Just super simple and easy and unfussy - slap it on lips and cheeks with a little mascara and you're totally done.

Cream blush looks really good on me, but I so often don't reach for it. I made a point of pulling out a few of my old Cremeblend blushes like Joie de Vivre and So Sweet So Easy for spring, plus Relaxation and Have a Lovely Day Casual Color. They really brighten up the cheeks in a way powder blush just doesn't. These two CCs from Playland are like JdV and SSSE on crack, so they're very very tempting. I'm probably going to pull the trigger on them, but if I do, I am going to force myself to use them on cheeks and/or lips at least once a week each, to get back in the cream blush habit.

As soon as I get a chance to see this collection, I'll know if they're really going to be great or not. I'll definitely come around and talk about it when I do.
It's funny because I was cleaning out one of my drawers the other day and actually found a CC I didn't even know I had. It must've been an impulse buy from a long time ago (that I forgot about and never used). Anyway, I wore it the other day on my lips and didn't really have any complaints. I can't even believe how skeptical I was of them before! After actually wearing it and now seeing the CC colors for this collection, I definitely want more. Although I haven't used it on my cheeks yet…..

Either 2 or 3 years ago these were made for a fashion show, it's in one of those early buzz threads. MAC has said they won't mass produce it, which sucks.

Can that yellow pigment really be different enough from rock it yellow or primary yellow to justify the purchase? I want it but it looks like plain old yellow. It would be great if it had a duo chrome effect or had some shimmer particles of a different color.
