No, not at all. I know you didn't come up with that wacky list. It may help someone, though.

I want that giant bow!

 

[shontay07108]

Wow, I just realized that's the chick from America's Next Top Model. Forgot what season, but she actually won. About time she did something noteworthy.

That's Cycle 5 winner, Nicole Linkletter!!

What lip combo do you think Nicole is wearing? I love it, it's like pumpkin, but might be too warm for me =\

I think it's Dressmaker, Dressmaker with Fold & Tuck lipglass

I was going to say Dressmaker, Dressmaker, but it looks like she's wearing something else also. maybe concealer or something?

Looking at all the swatches I was staying steadfast in my conviction to get only the Coral paint point. Until I saw this statement right here. Gilda Blush by Nars is something they are going to have to pry out of my Kung Foo Death Grip! If there is a color out there that may be better than Gilda you're damn right I WANT IT!!!! Thanks Shontay for enabling without realizing it.

Giiiirl, it took a lot for me to say that about Gina. I love that blush to death. LOL @ "My Kung Foo Death Grip". Seriously, Instant Chic is just friggin' gorgeous. Can't wait to find out what you think of it.

 

[Babylard]

i was hoping to skip this collection but now i really want instant chic and a lipstick! shontay, is it any similar to shy beauty bpb?

 

[Hypathya]

My list:

Coral Crepe p/p.

... and maybe:

Memorabilia e/s,
Instant Chic b.

 

[Karen_B]

I am so happy that I'll be able to buy things from this collection! Thank God for gift cards, right?

What tempts me most is Gazette Grey e/s, Cut to fit lipglass and Instant Chic blush. The coral PP is beautiful, but I have so many coloured bases already.

 

[TeresitaMC]

I was interested in a couple lippies but that has died down. I was also interested in a few e/s but not sure if they are must haves for me.

I thought I would like GG more than BG, and not sure I need this particular purple. Tissue Weight looked nice but I may get Hey instead cause wow!

So I hope this becomes a skip for me. Oh however, Shontay is making me want a couple coral pieces!

So pretttttyyyyyy!

 

[Susanne]

I called my MA yesterday to tell her I will not come in May b/c I will skip the whole collection!

I think this is the first month in 4 years I will not buy anything at all from MAC.

I look forward to To The Beach!

 

[charlieee]

Thanks for the review and swatches shontay! Thought I will pass this collection, but Instant Chic and that lipgloss looks good!

 

[InspiredBlue]

It looks like the stupid ash cloud is canceling my friends trip to the US, and thus making my planned MAC haul of perm items not happen. That combined with the nice swatches from Shontay and others is making me think I might get a few things from this collection after all.

Tissue weight
Cut to fit

Maybes:
Memorabilia
Fold and tuck
Pret-a-papier

Shontay, do you have Dame's Desire? I know that Memorabilia is not the same, but I'm just curious to see a comparison swatch to get a better idea of how Memorabilia looks.

holy cow! and i thought i was bad at about 2.5 years of buying each month!

i'd buy things every now and then from mac for the past 4 years or so.... but only got seriously addicted over the past 2.5 years!

No I don't have Dame's Desire, sorry. But if I remember correctly from swatching DD, DD is less pigmented and much lighter.
