MAC Cosmetics will be launching their Archie Comics collection just in time for Valentine's Day, featuring makeup products inspired by Riverdale's own Betty Cooper and Veronica Lodge. Known for their critically acclaimed beauty products and collaborations with pop culture icons (including Hello Kitty, Barbie, and Wonder Woman), MAC Cosmetics' Archie Comics products will feature exclusive new shades and special edition accessories. However, the most unique feature of this collection is that the products are evenly split (like Archie's heart) to suit either the Girl-Next-Door (sweet candy shades of pink and peach) or the Sophisticated Fashionista (deep vixen tones of red and purple).

Picture Heavy Fabulousness under the cut...Collapse )

Gah-they're both pretty, but I could only pull off the Betty ones. The Veronica ones would make me look like a Tim Burton character.

Love the Caramel Sundae eyeshadow quad. I can never pull off anything but neutrals lol

It looks like a rip-off of the wonder woman collection

When I was 11 or 12, I came home from school one day to find that my dad had given away my Archie comics, Baby-sitters Club books, Sweet Valley books, and all my other beloved YA books to a used bookstore because "the books were too childish."

Never quite got over that, tbh.

i never read any of that, i was more of a nancy drew girl but holy shit dad, dick move.
gonerilandregan 2nd-Feb-2013 05:59 am (UTC)
Oh, yes, Nancy Drew! My mom bought me all the hardcover books over the course of my childhood. I was particularly fond of those books and had planned to keep them forever. :'(

I adore Nancy Drew. I loved the cheesy 90s ones the best, but I read all of them.

Your dad and I would have burned the house down in the ensuing fight.

aww my dad was the total opposite he always bought archie comics and the baby sitter books for me!

Honestly I wouldn't be over it either.
aphrodite5239 2nd-Feb-2013 08:51 am (UTC)
damn, that would've scarred me for life tbh
deltabean 2nd-Feb-2013 01:46 pm (UTC)
My mother did that with my books. Everything except my Archie comics actually

I would have made him get them back, tbh. And he would have done it to prevent the ensuing hissy fit.
jessashoutbaby 2nd-Feb-2013 09:08 pm (UTC)
Oh my God, I would have fucking died. Those books were all my life. I still have most of my SVH, BSC and Archie comics.

I would have declared emancipation if my mum had thrown out any of my books.

Also, I wish this movie actually existed... I'd shamelessly watch the fuck out of it.

daydream11 2nd-Feb-2013 05:55 am (UTC)
I never read the comics, but I love the packaging. I'm a sucker for good packaging.

Just say no to brown lipstick.
_marquis 2nd-Feb-2013 06:03 am (UTC)
AHHH i hope this post is still going!


i actually tried on some of this stuff today! im in love w/ all the betty stuff. i really want the coral-y lipstick and nail polish and lip gloss the most. but i'd take it all tbh.


i also tried on this and im like 90% sure im gonna buy it.



i had a tragic mishap w/ a macy's order (shoes i ordered got stolen before i received them) so I have a $40 credit and it's a $34 lipstick. im gonna treat myself. w/e.
antique_faery 2nd-Feb-2013 06:07 am (UTC)
I have the powder! It's sooo pretty! I'm having issues with actually using it. Lol.
_marquis 2nd-Feb-2013 06:08 am (UTC)
the powder is gorgeous but im not exactly sure what it's for lol.


the whole spring collection... in the words of rachel zoe... no words.
nox_aurumque 2nd-Feb-2013 06:08 am (UTC)
Oooooooo, both the lipstick and the blush are pretty
secretly 2nd-Feb-2013 04:36 pm (UTC)
this is so pretty, omg.
tropicalpara18 2nd-Feb-2013 06:06 am (UTC)
I had added Oh Oh Oh to my cart on the website and Plumful (from the Year of the Snake collection) but Plumful was gone when I checked this morning. I wanted that one mainly because of the packaging but it's a permanent so I will just buy it in the store.

The Archie collection hits stores February 7 so I will just wait until then to buy Oh Oh Oh from my Macy's.
shoutingasong 2nd-Feb-2013 06:08 am (UTC)
Apparently I'm more of a Betty because I'd totally wear those colors (Considering getting that eyeshadow palette).


IN OTHER NEWS I keep getting invites for the MAC collection release "parties" but I don't understand it. When I got the Wonder Woman invite, I called the store to ask for details, they sort of just tried to give me an appointment to get my makeup done instead...

i swatched the chanel on the left. the betty bright on the right, the small swatch is a chanel lip pencil from the spring line too.


i think i need both.

i am so obsessed with bright pink and coral lipstick. i have 2 color whispers in pm the same shades but the quality is such shit compared to the chanel and mac. esp the chanel. i tried it on my lips. jfc i've never had such an amazing lipstick on. i wound up blotting it and putting a peachy revlon lip butter over it for my date. looked fresh to death.
