I personally like neutrals, so I'm definitely looking forward to this collection

My list so far is:

Want the Most:

Sheertone Blush – Instant Chic
Paint Pot - Coral Crepe
Eyeshadow - Cut to Fit

Maybe:

Lipstick - Archetype
Lipglass - Fold and Tuck

if that's the case then I will be buying one as soon as this collection comes out

I like this for those dumbed-down looks...like if I want to look like I tried a little, I just wear this alone, with no lipstick. It's a great, low maintenance look.

Audrey, C-thru is a real old school nude l/g. All my friends bought C-thru at least once in their lifetime (no joke)

My paler friends (I think NW15-20) looked really good, so I think you can rock it. I am paler-mid range, and I used to wear it all the time(I used up 2 tubes) My friends used to wear it over Cherish or Myth. I don't remember which lipliner, though. Possibly oak? or test pattern? It's perm. you can test it tomorrow at the store

The only problem for me was too milky and uneven, but it was a "it" color back then. I don't know I want to buy it again since there are so many other l/gs to choose from.

that would be awesome!

 

[laylalovesmac]

Finally- a collection I can skip! Although, I might have to get Memorabilia. What can I say? I'm a COMPLETE sucker for purples.

Anyone who has Memorabilia: is the pigmentation good? I never know with mattes.

YAY for CORALS! I'm glad mac is now focusing more on corals...I've been waiting.

lol

So far on my list...

Instant Chic Blush - Mid-Tone Muted Coral
Dressmaker, Dressmaker - Creamy Light Peach Coral (Lustre)
Made To Order - Creamy Mid-Tone Dirty Coral (Lustre)
Coral Crepe Paintpot - Soft Coral

exactly! i wanted to like it because so many people raved about it - but it's just not good at all on my lips!

I tried C-thru before and didn't like it too. Too thick, too milky, too light is correct, on me at least.

Ok, no C-Thru for me. I still have a mini version from the holiday collection. It is ok, but not my first choice.

booo I wasn't into MAC when those collections came out. I feel like I missed out on all the good shit.
My addiction started at the end of 2008, but got full blown when HK came out!!! Seems like all the good stuff was from early '08 and before

[chickatthegym]

^Same here Susanne. I have the mini one from the holiday set and still haven't used it up so I don't think I will be buying a full one. I like Underage much better... and Young Thing but that was LE

Naughty Nauticals

 

[Elusive21]

Now that I've seen the new bigger pics, I am really intrigued by Memorabilia, Cut to Fit, and Gazette Gray. I can't wait to see some swatches of these, because at this point I want to buy either these 3 or all 5 of the eyeshadows.

And I am not going to get the groundwork paint pot at all. I thoght it would have some shimmer to it but it doesn't.

 

[satin_yogurt]

I like this collection.

I'm intrigued by: Instant Chic. Dressmaker, Dressmaker. Made To Order.
Fold and Tuck. Tissue Weight. Gazette Grey. Memorabilia. Brown Bag.
