It’s a good job I’m not a Macaholic. How do you guys deal with it – collection, after collection, after collection, after collection.
I have bought nowt from MAC for a good 6 months. Restraint, ladies, restraint. (ahem).
There’s the Gold Fever collection, Ungaro, Suite Array, Creamsheen, Manish Aurora, Sheer Minerals, Cult of Cherry – all in the space of what? A month? 2 months? Isn’t it just too much?
*The palette from Manish by the way looks HOT – but £30…that’s slightly short of a very good quality Bobbi Brown Palette, isn’t it?
How often do you think brands should release new collections? I wouldn’t mind 6 collections, one every 2 months from my favourite brands, like Nars and RMK. RMK is especially slow with new things….
Whatcha think? Or do you like the MAC Attack?
Its 8pm and I believe its time for a quick Krispy Kreme visit!

I’m no MAC addict but I enjoy the frequency of collections actually. It makes going to their counters more interesting. Even if I don’t buy that much it keeps me entertained
Without MAC, cosmetics would be a lot more boring imo…seasonal collections are too far apart imo.

I think it’s too much – there’s so many it’s hard to get excited about them anymore – that said their holiday collection is a stunner
I ignore most of their collections, I tend to be swayed more easily by Urban Decay, I’m such a massive fan of brights

Hey Blu! Some brands do seem to take ages to get a new range in but then if I get bored waiting for the new Nars or RMK it makes me look at other brand’s collections. Dontcha find MAC stuff looks very similar too?
See what makes me love the Japanese collections is that when they release something new, its new packaging, its a new formula, its new(ish) colours, its a new concept

Hey Chica!
You will love the Spring BB palette then! I love the look of MAC’s Manish eyeshadow palette – cos like u I love brights! But the other collections are a bit meh for me – its overload! Having said that if they release a Hello Kitty Collection, then I’m there, 2 of everything!

Hello Kitty is planned for next spring I believe – if you want to join me in my bank robbery plan to afford everything from it, let me know

i don’t like the head spinning mac collections being released, but on the other hand, waiting for new drugstore collections is like waiting for grass to grow =(
