So what amazing products can we expect from MAC? The possibilities are endless!

Just gimme a shade called "Damnit Janet" or "Riff Raff!" Think dark vampy shades of red, purple and coal. Sultry intense and smokey shadows of silver and pearl.

I'm so excited, I'm doing my "Time-Warp dance" now!!

*Update* I've been stalking the inter-webs and have finally found some pictures for this collection!!
