Does anyone know if the beauty powders are shimmery a la the Barbie BPs? Or are they matte?
Thanks!

They are preselling them right now and they have pictures of what there will be! The MA said they only receive a limited amount so it would be a good idea to put your name down.


The brush sets come with a case.

Softdew is matte. You can read about the first release of it during the Catherine Deneuve collection on here or on Makeup Alley. I missed it back then and plan to get it this time around. The other one I have no idea about though.

I also saw the pics/product booklet at my Nordie's, and I'm hoping the pics really just aren't doing the products justice. I did pre-order the pro brush set and a gold pearlizer, as well as some other stuff for my friend, though.

I would also suggest pre-ordering if you have a Nordie's. They do a lot of pre-orders and sometimes don't even have the stuff the day it goes on sale, because it sells out in pre-sales (at least, this happens at mine).

My MAC guy told me he would let me come in and play with the prototypes once they come in, so I'm really hopeful he'll call soon and I can actually look at the stuff in person and swatch it on my hands!

P.S. This is my first post, lol, how did I do?

Hmmm...I'm not excited for this collection anymore which is a good thing since it is coming out around the same time as Flashtronic and Rushmetal. I might take a look at the beauty powders but meh on everything else.

Just talked to a rep. on the phone yesterday. The pearlizer + mini kabuki is 24.50.

The whole collection is coming out at the same time as Nordies Anniversary sale, which is July 20th.

thanks for the photo, so nice!

i think i need both of the brush sets and pearlizer-kabuki set... think I don't need the warm eyes palette...

After looking at those pics and prices, I don't think I want a lip palette anymore. Although that pearlizer and brush duo is tempting - how I can I not resist a mini kabuki brush? That, plus the lipglass and the paint pots have definitely caught my attention.

I'm still so up in there with this collection. I guess I just have to wait and see everything in person to see if I actually really like anything. :shrug: I am just not super excited or thrilled with this one. Even after seeing that tiny preview picture. Gah, I don't know.

Anyone else feel a little on the fence about Novel Twist?

Same here.. I want both brush sets and I kind of wanted the warm eyeshadow palette but after seeing the picture I'm not too interested in it. Maybe it'll be better in person? But overall I'm not too "wow" about Novel Twist.

i think the only thing that i like from that picture is the cosmetics bags, the makeup is alright but i am looking forward to flashtronic and rushmetal.

i'm getting both brush sets, softdew b/p, maybe a blush, and some lipglosses. this haul is gonna be expensive! do the b/p cases and blush cases have the same design as the bags? i think i can tell the blushes do.

Re: Nordstrom Quad & Collection (FULL STORY UPDATED)

I was looking up past collections with pearlizers in the color stories tab when I happen to see the following in Belle Azure section:

Quiver - bronze shimmer
Hundred Degrees - pink shimmer

But then I see a different description in this thread:

Hundred Degrees - Gold shimmer

Which is the correct one?

aww the pearlizer+brush set comes with a case too! i love that =D

charismaticlime, i think the Belle Azur description is the correct one cuz theres this swatch on the MAC product gallery website & it shows that hundred degrees is pink and quiver is gold/bronze =)
