My sentiments exactly. You would think MAC would recognize that those with pigmented lips are who would jump at a product like this so that you can achieve a really nude lip etc. I didn't mention it because I was already ticked about the "flesh-toned" descriptions.

But why use that rather than Prime & Prep?

id love to know the consistency of the Lip Erase - if its dry then i'll give it a miss because I could always use concealer instead. i'm hoping for something, smoother and balmier - not necessarily shiny, but just smooth because dry products make my lips look horrible
also, once someone gets their hands on the Shaping Powders, could you please post here with what the finish/effect is like? I'd love a soft pearly highlighter that is similar to the shimmery Beauty Powders of even the glowy but very understated look of Lightscapade MSF

Prep and Prime Lash dries semi-transparent. It's not really a consistent coloration. I'm assuming (since I haven't tried it) that this new product is more like a mascara and covers more. Anyway, that's the only reason I can think to use it... maybe there are more artistic reasons....???

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought everyone's flesh was beige?

I was thinking the same thing, jilliandanica.
These sound really useful, especially those lip erasers.

i stopped by the pro store in south coast plaza this morning for a "coffee break (lol)" and asked about this new line and no one knew anything about it!! i'm so confused bc i've seen in available on the mac pro website, but it wasn't in the store and none of the MAs in the store had heard of it.

Flesh is red and pink, the color of veins, muscle, tissue, etc., not beige. Flesh-tone refers to skintone, and not everyone has beige skin (unless we are counting our palms).

Haha I must sound so dumb! I see your point, but generally the colour of 'flesh' is beige, like I worked with a pink-beige oil paint at college named flesh. Anywaay, the mascara sounds ugly

I think the lip erases are not suppose to match ur skintone. I should pick the shade according to how much u want to tone down ur LIP COLOR. Two people can have completely different skin colors, but could have the same lip color

Omg! Luc B gave an exclusive application demo for us at Basic (this past week) and he used those!! He was AMAZING and those new contouring products really are amazing, especially with the right brushes!

And just to clarify, this is a PRO product, therefore it is geared toward artists in the industry. It's for models (using that loosely; for runway models, photography models, television people, movies, etc) who will appear in ads, on runways, and on movies/television. It's not being marketed to the average consumer. Luc told us that he has been experimenting and testing it backstage. That is probably why not many have heard of it, because not alot of people on this website are actually like major runway/movie star/etc makeup artists, we're more of consumer artists.

Well said. Additionally in pro use, when you need a soft eye or brow, think the charecter Story in Lady in the Water or the White Witch in The Chronicles of Narina, the new Pro Lash in Bare Lash can help you acheive that.
I would like to try it. Say a coat of black mascara on the whole lash, then tip the lashes with Bare Lash and then add coloured mascara.
