MAC's newest collection, Spring Forecast is scheduled to be released in North America on February 11th. I was lucky enough to be invited to a preview party at my local freestanding store on February 2. Here's the invite:
You can open it like kinda like a book and each page has one of the selected trend colours (pink, purple, coral and neutral/bronze). This will be my second time attending a preview party. I sure hope it's not as crowded as the Hello Kitty event.
I'm trying to build a wishlist for this collection as this is the first MAC collection that has actually grabbed my attention since Style Black. I think it's mostly coz it's a huge collection and also organized by colour category so there's something for everyone. You can find full collection description and swatches on Specktra. The swatches look positively drool worthy!
Luckily, I will be getting some cash from hubby for my b-day (which happens to be three days after the event). It's actually the first time I'll be using hubby's money to buy makeup; I feel kinda odd about it, lol! Based on the swatches I've seen, these are the products I'm considering:
- Perky and Straw Harvest e/s
- Purple Quad
- Neutral pigment set
- Bronzillla l/s
- Bubblegum or Victoria l/s (Victorian looks like a colour that usually clashes with my skintone though)
- Electric Fuchsia l/s
Have you guys seen the pictures from this new collection? What's on your wishlist (if any)? Who's also going to a preview party?

Not sure what I want from this collection yet. Everything just looks great! Defiantly gotta get one of the blushes though. Have fun at the preview

Im considering one of the pigment stacks (will probably be the neutral one) and one of those funky looking blushes.

Tooooootally going to the party, but I didn't get a paper invite :( Just the emailed one.
I have NO idea what I want to buy. I know that purple quad is calling to me, but I dunno. I'll have to make a list, I guess!

Kelly - thanks :) I totally forgot about the blushes!
Fintia - yey! I might also get Springshine if it's not to similar to Eversun.
Em - your swatches really did me in :D
Pixie - the pigments look really good. I wasn't considering them but ever since seeing swatches I changed my mind.
Shayla - the quad is calling me too. I think that's one of my definites!
