GIRL, you know how I feel about flamingos! Those beautiful pink and coral feathers…that graceful neck…those long legs…that stylin’ beak! They’re my second favorite animal behind teh kittehs, and if there were such thing as a “Crazy Flamingo Lady,” I’d qualify, no doubt.
I’m happy to report that said beautiful bird is front and center in the new spring MAC Flamingo Park collection.
Behold…

Question for you: now that you’ve seen the pics, how would you feel about having a picnic at Flamingo Park? Potluck?
I’m down. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
I’m glad to see an LE collection with colors appropriate for medium-dark to very deep skintones (eyeing those fabulously pigmented blushes)! They almost look more like lipstick swatches than blush!
They’re so pigmented! I hope that you give ’em a swatch when they come out. 🙂
Wonderful, lively, spring tones (as we brace for 2 feet of snow on the east coast GAH)! And right on the heels of your “Neutrals or Brights” post! 😀
Yes! We’re having some gloomy weather here in NorCal, and these are just what I needed for a pick-me-up. Stay warm and safe in the snowstorm, Christine!
Love all the swatches! This collection from Mac gives me life. After seeing your swatches, just added 2 blushes into my list. Thanks Karen!
Ooh, which ones did you add to your list, Charisma?
Life’s a picnic, let’s be friends and oh my!
Oh my I need 99% of this collection, there goes most of my money! I love the lipstick please me and blush in pearl blossom! xx

Love the bright colors but I feel like I already have a lot of hot pinks…
Also lately I’ve had a hard time “splurging” on expensive cosmetics when you can get so much more with drugstore brands, and they’ve been just as good lately!
But, I will always love MAC!
Fabulous display of gorgeous colors! I am going to try out (once they hit my local Macy’s) This Could Be Fun & Pink Swoon blushes and Be Silly, St Germain & Have Your Cake lipsticks.
Wow, I just love all of it. Pinks, corals, AND a bright eye palette! Yes!!!!!!!!
Both the technakohls are beautiful as are the blushes, so much pigment.
This collection is so much fun. I love the Flocking Fabulous lipstick name. Based on the name alone, I wanted to love Long Legged & Fabulous but it wouldn’t suit my coloring. Whoever named this collection did a great job. The Spring Flock blush looks right up my alley, though! Thank you for your in depth reviews. I have always enjoyed your blog! It is such a great source for swatches and reviews.
Oh my god, I mistook the blush swatches for the lipstick swatches because they were so pigmented! Holy pigment!
OMMMGGGGG your swatches make me want everything!! I am so there for the picnic in Flamingo Park!
Oh I’m going to have to get quite a bit of these! Your coral shirt…that’s YOUR color!!
The lipsticks in this collection are gorgeous! I also really liked Spring Flock blush.
Love that x9 palette! I’ll have to start saving my pennies.
Totally down for a picnic there, but not so keen on flamingoes, to be honest.
Just watched the video. This collection is soooooooooo springy indeed! I want EVERYTHING! The blushes in particular look really good, both ‘groups’ 🙂 The lipsticks also look great, loving these shades. I’m glad to hear you think Flocking Fabulous is stellar! That one immediately stood out for me!
Dang, that’s a LOT of pink! You look so fresh and springy. 🙂 And, of course you have a pink, feather boa as a photo prop. HAHA! Super cute.
This collection is so cute! I love the idea and inspiration because flamingos are the most fab of the zoo animals.
Wow! These colours are so pretty! Those blushes!!!!
I am so excited for Flamingo Park! These colors are right up my alley!
Oh my! This collection is so far outside my comfort zone. It is nice to see colors that will work well for medium to dark complexions.
The lipsticks are very cheery and spring like, so I’ll probably check those out.
I just got to watch your review video now. Looks like I’ll be peepin’ this collection! I’ve finally broke out of my nude lip rut (thanks UDxGwen reds) and I’ll be picking up some new bright lipsticks/blushes!
What are the two blushes that the model is wearing in the promo pictures? It’s hard for me to tell, especially with so many out!
I’d talked myself out of this collection, because the blushes weren’t what I wanted them to be, but I just looked again and realized Nice To Meet You was a color I desperately needed. So I just bought it and a backup of Strutting Fabulous mattene, which I love. Thank you!
