Here is the overall collection descrption from the MAC website. "Long-lasting Lip Pencil and Lipglass with six extended hours of lasting shine, along with a creamy new Eye Shadow...experience future forward Pro Longwear technology!" So is this new eye shadow a powder or a cream? If it is a powder then I am very interested in it, I can't tell completely from the picture on the website but the shade swatches of it look like they are powder (but don't hold me 100% to this!). I am most excited for the long-wearing Lipglass since I feel like some of the Lipglasses wear off much too quickly.
Here is Styledriven!

I looked these eye shadows up on the Temptalia blog and I am leaning toward them being a very soft powder texture instead of a traditional cream. They are bigger in size than traditional MAC eye shadows so I am really looking forward to buying some of these. My favorite shades are: Carefree, Keep Your Cool, Sweet Satisfaction, and Make Your Mark. All of these shades are neutrals and I will use them with lots of other shades that I already own. I am confident in buying this larger size in the neutral shades because I know that I would use them all the time.
The lip products also really have me excited. I would skip over all the lip pencils, since I have never used them and don't plan to start any time soon. Lipglasses that will wear all day get me really excited, I can't wait to have lip glosses that last more than two hours! Infinitely Lickable is the light-medium pink shade and is my favorite of the group. I would wear this one against dramatic eye makeup and I love that it could last all night and I wouldn't be reapplying after every drink. I could skip out on the other shades but that one is a keeper for me. Onto the lipsticks... My first picks are the red shades, I love both Prolong and Extended Play. Til Tommorrow is a great cool pink mauve shade that will look great for a natural look at work or against a strong eye look, this one would be a staple for me this fall and winter. Dress It Up is a great light blue pink and reminds me of the original Viva Glam Gaga, I love this shade and I can't wait to pair it with cat eyes or black eye makeup shades. Lastly, Pro Drama is a great deep cool berry shade and it would great with my cool pale skin, this is another winner for the fall and winter shades.
The eye shadow shades are nice and I am very excited to try the new formula however the lipsticks are what get me the most excited about this collection. The new shades in the Pro Longwear formulation are a wide range of shades and I have found a bunch that I know will work out for me.
