MAC Wonder Woman Collection - Initial Thoughts

First off I updated the previous entry with Temptalia.com Blush, Mineralize Skinfinish, Lipstick, and Lipglass Comparison and Dupes links as well as her Overall Recommendations for the MAC Wonder Woman Collection.  Go check it out HERE .  Now for how I'm feeling...I'll be honest I'm really not.  Temptalia does some fabulous, detailed, and thorough reviews of products and I trust her viewpoints.  She didn't even list a single product as a "Must Have" from this collection and that is saying something about the quality, or lack there of.  MAC what are you doing?  I have been waiting, saving, lusting after this collection for a year and now...now I look and I'm lucky if I'll be getting even a couple of products.  And so many of these are repromotes, granted I don't have those shades, but hardly anything new or limited edition.  It just saddens me a great deal.  Tons of great packaging, I was overlooking the steeper price in lieu of getting more pro

Isn't it the most lovely thing ever? I picked it up at Ulta.com last weekend. Go Steelers!! posted from Bloggeroid  Update Feb 7 - Here is a break down of what I used on my nails: Base Coat: Essie Millionails (1 coat) Base Color: Ghina Glaze Anchors Away Collection-Lighthouse (2 coats) Top Color: OPI Black Shatter Top Coat (1 coat) Top Coat: Essie Millionails (1 coat) You need to work fast when you use the Black Shatter Top Coat.  It starts to dry as soon as you lay it down and if you over lap the strokes you might move some of the bits.  Beyond that I love this top coat! I picked my bottle up at Ulta . What do you think of it all?
