YAY!! *SPOILER* MAC'S COLOR READY LINE PREVIEW PRE-RELASE

MAC COLOR READY

MAC Colour Ready

MAC Cosmetics Colour Ready Collection


Launch Date: April 2, 2009 (North America), April 2009 (International)

Seeking alternative energy, increased mileage from makeup… Colour Ready revs up the Prep + Prime idea, a true hybrid formula between science and beauty. New Transparent Finishing Powder and Line Filler are our lightest yet, in fact invisible when applied, but their silky colourless polymers set and stabilize makeup instantly. The only way to start when you sit down in front of the mirror. Prep + Prime Skin Refined Zone is your stay-put fit on skin that minimizes the appearance of pores without clogging, and visibly diminishes them over time. Two Lipsticks, Eye Shadows, Penultimate Eye Liner and Eye Brows in an essential palette are a habit to happily acquire – Colour Ready is as basic as your 4-inch heel Louboutins.

Are you kidding me?? Makeup that compares itself to shoes? And Louboutins at that?? Now I know most of us will never be able to own a pair of Louboutins, so I absolutely HAD to check out this product and see if it lives up to MACs hype.

I am still on the fence about this collection. I know that is supposed to be focused more on a skincare line, but most of these things are products long time MAC users have been using for a while. That being said, if you are just getting into MAC or if you haven't yet tried the skin products they offer this could be great for you! I personally love many of the items offered. I you would like more opions on this line feel free to ask me :-)
