So...are you gonna get something from the MAC Barbie collection?
So...are you gonna get something from the MAC Barbie collection?
Posted by Colleen Shirazi, Tuesday, February 13, 2007 9:40 PM (Eastern)
There's been an enormous amount of hype over this one; in fact I can't think of any other recent MAC collection (or any other line's, for that matter) that has been so abundantly promoted as of late.
One of the lipsticks looks interesting: Modern Ms. Why Modern Ms.? It's a frost, which normally would not catch my eye (MAC "frost" formula lipsticks tend to be very frosty). What does stand out, in some preliminary pics, is that it looks similar to MAC "O" lipstick--without the plum. In short, it appears to be a sort of muted, frosty, dare I say warmish, red--rather than the muted red, plum and bronze of "O," if that makes any sense. Modern Ms. is probably a more wearable version of "O."
Modern Ms. is described on the MAC site as "mid-tone brick red with silver pearl (Frost)." Swatch is below:
Still, there is that annoying limited edition status of this lipstick. Any real point rushing out to buy it? What if it is that great? Why fall in love with the temporarily attainable?
I think my Strawberry Blonde lipstick is the last of my limited edition expenditures. It's already bugging me that it can't be replaced.
