MAC Marilyn Monroe Fall 2012 Collection Preview

Hello my lovely readers...MAC will launch a new collection in Fall 2012, Marilyn Monroe collection. When I heard about it I was really excited to see all the products and the packaging and i think many other people too because when you hear Marilyn Monroe you expect something amazing and red :).

I must say that at first I really liked the packaging but after looking at  more photos I think MAC could do better job with the packaging. I'm not excited about the eyeshadows but I do like the lipsticks,the powder blushes and beauty powder. I'll try to save some money and go to my local MAC store to look at those products up close.

What do you think of this collection?
