MAC Wonder Woman Collection: Musings of the Day: What MAC Collection would you create?

Although the Lasso of Truth was supposed to make you TELL the truth, hence it being called Lasso of Truth, I’m thinking that MAC plans to wrap it around us and make us SPEND money. Forget telling the truth, MAC’s version will wrap around your sorry makeup loving ass and make you buy more makeup.

MAC Wonder Woman Collection?

Yes, please.

MAC will soon release a MAC Wonder Woman Collection but until that time you can Muse with me!

What sort of MAC Collection would you create? Who would you collaborate with to create it?

Something geeky perhaps? A comic book of some sort? A favorite cartoon character?

Jump!

Obviously, as you may have guessed, I’d like to see a Doctor Who themed collection.

Yes, we need Doctor Who in our makeup.

Some sort of Tardis blue eyeshadow, perhaps a warm shade of khaki to match the 10th’s trench, maybe some rusty metallic shades to represent the Daleks.

Yeah, MAC needs to get on this shiz.

What sort of collection would you create?

Share it!

Check out other great MAC collaborations:

MAC Hello Kitty

MAC Disney Venomous Villains

MAC Dame Edna

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Well, as unrealistic as it is, I’d want a Lord of the Rings collection. Seeing as whenever TNT does their LOTR weekends I create looks based on my interpretation of the characters (I most recently did Legolas using UD’s Sidecar and KVD’s Orbi and Dimebag…so gorgeous), I already have tons of ideas. I don’t know how many people would buy it…but I think it could potentially be a very diverse collection, because you have so many different elements (light, earthy or ethereal colors for elves–dark, metallic colors for dwarves, the possibilites are endless). I know I’d snatch up everything, but that’s just me 😉 The product names would be fun too…like a really dark red lip called “Mount Doom” or a plumy-black liner called “Mordor…” LOL I can dream.

    • the Muse

      OMG YES Marina! I’d love that!!!!!!! ha must see it, got a pic!? some sort of dark smoky look for orcs with blood red and black!!!!!!!!!!!! :-D!!!!!!! I’m excited 😀 Well Clarins already has a Mordor Eyeliner 😀 FREAKING ace! Wicked 😀

      • Marina

        I’ll recreate it later and take a pic 🙂 I had no idea there was a Mordor eyeliner…coincidence (or not?) that I am trying to acquire more liners before school starts? Do they sell Clarins at Sephora? Because I am going there in roughly two weeks for school shopping. I’m trying to get my “senior style” all mapped out…but I know I want some radtastic liners (have my eye on UD’s Radium and Minx…any opinion on those?).

        • the Muse

          yay 😀 can’t wait marina! Total coincidence in my opinion as I doubt Clarins is geeky enough to appreciate Mordor eyeliner lol! 😀 Nope sadly not the makeup at sephora only the skincare 😀 It’s part of Summer 2010: https://www.musingsofamuse.com/2010/03/clarins-summer-collection-2010-clarins-instant-light-sun-collection.html UD makes great ones but if you really want something unique try the MUFE liners, wide selection of shades. Radium and Minx are both nice, but Mildew is rockin’ in my humblest for Fall paired up with some sort of brown shadow 😀

          • Marina

            The pics didn’t turn out good at all XD It was either too light or waaaay yoo dark 🙁 I’ll try and get my hands on it one day…somehow! I have Mildew, actually, and I adore it! I love this post, btw. Everyone’s showing their geeky side and I love it!!!
            As an afterthought, I’d like Betsey Johnson also as she’s my hero.

          • the Muse

            marina looking forward to it. Mildew is a fav of mine 😀 Oh yes!!!!!! Or tarina tarantino! Pink, blinging, fabulous!

          • the Muse

            marina dunno if you can find it but the BoHo palette from last year from Isadora is so fab for Fall 2010 back to school imho! It was a 2009 release but the colors just scream Fall and aren’t out of style.

  • Hi

    I’d love a Wizard of Oz or Wicked collection!….but maybe that is more of an Urban Decay type-idea….

    • Adora

      OMG! If Urban Decay did a Wicked collection I would have to buy it all! Imagine how awesome a Defying Gravity book of shadows would be! And they would have to put in some new shades to fit in with Wicked! Plenty of greens, pinks and smokey purples!

  • Scientific Housewife

    I would totally do a Mad Men collection. Lots of reds, greens, and other fun colors from the 60s. Each woman would have her own set and it would be in 60’s vintage packaging 🙂

  • Phyrra

    I probably would have done a Farscape collection. Because of it being sci-fi/fantasy and having such a variety of colors and races it would be awesome.

    Cute fact: Fyrinnae has a color named Delvian after a race in Farscape.
    Cute fact 2: I did a Commandant Grayza makeup look/costume look for a contest and won.

    • the Muse

      dd LOVE the Grayza makeup/costume pics please 😀 Your con-ny costumes already rock it so I imagine the Grayza one was incredible. Farscape would be incredible 😀 BSG wouldn’t be a bad idea either ya know!

  • Karli

    Oh, man. I’ve already mapped this all out in my head. I really like the geeky direction MAC is taking with the Wonder Woman collection. So, to continue on with that, I’d suggest a MAC/Nintendo collaboration.
    Now, here’s how I’d do it. I would make the collection absurdly huge and then I’d split it up into four parts, one for each game franchise (like they’re doing with the characters for Venomous Villains).

    First would be the Mario franchise, which would be entirely made up of super bright colors. Mostly primary and secondary colors.
    Next would be the Kirby franchise. This would be somewhat bright, but mostly lighter and pastel colors (to keep with the colors of the new game, Epic Yarn).
    Third would be Legend of Zelda. Here is where they could fit in some darker and more complex colors. But it shouldn’t be too dark or muddy considering the color palette for Skyward Sword.
    And last would be Donkey Kong. This is where they could bring in some neutrals and more muted colors so that theres something for everyone. Also, they would HAVE to repromote Going Bananas eyeshadow with this. Seriously.

    Plus, imagine the packaging! Adorable.
    *sigh*
    A girl can dream.

    • the Muse

      ha karli awesome suggestion 😀 I CAN TOTALLY dig a Zelda Collection! Honestly, Nintendo aside, I’d kill for W0W or FF Collections!!!!!!!!!!!!! God geeky good dreams with your idea!

    • Storm

      Oh my GOSH I love this idea!

      Princess Peach–Peach Is Me blush. Can we make this happen???? PLEASE???

      Cloud Area–a blueish white e/s.

      Grab the Shroom (sounds more UD than MAC but…go with it)–a rich, metallic copper with red undertones.

      Some get MAC our numbers!

      • the Muse

        omg storm LOVES!!!!!!!!! 😀 lol! don’t worry, MAC Listens! 😀 how do you think SR came back!? 😀

        • Storm

          I know! I’d love a job in the brain storming department….. 😀 Would be AWESOME.

  • Hi

    oops, sorry for posting that twice, I thought it didn’t work the first time:(

  • Missy

    Marina – you’re brilliant! I would buy all that too! Very LOTR geeky, I am 😉

  • clementine

    Oh, man, right now I can only think of movies, hahahaha. Star Trek, Pirates, and Moulin Rouge.

    I’m thinking MAC ayurvedic kohl would be kind of awesome.

    • the Muse

      clementine totally want the shadow that leonard Nimoy wore LOL! Moulin Rouge, likey!

      • clementine

        Right?! I was just drooling over an old Rimmel nail polish called Star Trek that was apparently a Starry Starry Night dupe… Can you imagine a nail polish or mineralized eye shadow called Boldy Go?

        Also, seeing Karli’s game post reminded me… How about a Final Fantasy collection?

        • the Muse

          I’m not a nail girl clementine but YES PLEASE 😀 Or captains log….god the possibilities are endless 😀

          I’m such a geek 😀

          Yes! I mentioned an FF collaboration in my reply to karli ha! or W0W!

          • clementine

            I think best name would be Fascinating, hahahahaha. XD [geeks along with you!]

            FF is so obvious!! It’d be AMAZING. I don’t know if it’d be possible what with licensing and all, but an anime collection would be SERIOUSLY incredible.

          • the Muse

            OMG clem totally in for the FF collection! I want shadow named Cloud! How exciting would a Nana be? Something manga would be so fun and Nana has an edge for it. shōjo inspired mac! yes please?!

  • Casey

    I seriously spent some hours thinking about this while I ran my errands today, and I still can’t narrow it down to just one!

    I would love to see a collection based on the coral reefs. The color possibilities and names would be endless. The big item (like marine life) could be a beauty powder compact with some type of extravagant fish and coral as the design.

    The second one I thought of was a space-themed collection. I’m not sure if they already did this, though.. I’ve been into MAC for some time but I’ve only been MAC “obsessed” for about a year.

    I’d also love any collection where they put out funky looking brushes in different colors.. the black ones are sleek and professional, sure, but I’d love a purple set or green. 🙂

    • the Muse

      I like this idea alot casey, something mermaid-ish would be cool too although its been slightly done with MAC’s Summer Collection back in ’08 or so. But something concentrating on the oceans, coral reef, etc..very cool idea.

      They def have released a green set before….and prob purple to. Look out for the holidays when the brushes get revamped in gift sets wink!

  • yay

    Muse welcome back! I didn’t realized you’re back already….how was ur trip? Great Reviews on a lot of products…. i’m traveling soon too & running out of powder…. i still got gift card from dept store…. what brand would u suggest i buy for powder… fair to medium combination skin….. thanks Muse….

  • Storm

    I told you this already, but I’d *love* to see more comic book collections and so would the Mr. He wants them to make a Joker lipstick so he can tell all his friends about it and use it for Halloween. I want to see a Superman collection and an Aquaman collection–a lot of creams in that one with a lot of blues.

    If I have to come up with something completely different though…I wouldn’t mind seeing a collection based off of fruits: lemon colored e/s, cranberry blush, blueberry lip gloss…Star fruit anything…. The possibilities are ENDLESS and the packaging could be so much fun!

    Or a collection based on classic rockers: Elvis to Nirvana. It would be AWESOME and separated into parts by decade!

    • the Muse

      storm you always have the best ideas 😀 love the fruit collection idea ;D!!!!!!!!!

      • Storm

        Aaawww thank you Muse! That is so sweet. We spend a lot of our time in the kitchen.

        What about a Candy line? I know they used a lot of candy in the promo shots of Sugar Sweet–and names that were sweet–but I always see that as being associated with cupcakes. I’m talking about classic candy. Hot red for Candy Canes, crazy brights for Sour Patch kids…. Twizzler red lippies….

        I tend to have a bend to the bright, darker side of things 😀

        • Storm

          That makes no sense:

          “I tend to have a bend to the bright, darker side of things” (WTH Storm?)

          I meant:

          I tend to have a bend to the darker side of things. Bright colors come in because they’re unconventional.

          That is what I get for not rereading.

          • Storm

            The Mr. says they should make “a makeup line based on classic Fender guitar finishes: lake placid blue, fiesta red, shell pink, ocean turquoise, shoreline gold, surf green….”

        • the Muse

          ha likey the candy theme Storm 😀 something with bubble gum I’d be in on! Sugar Sweet had that but it came across more as french macaroons 😀

          • Storm

            I love the French, but it was *sweet* in an innocent way. I’d rather see it with an EDGE! MAC was always the trendy sect…and they’re starting to get safe.

            The Mr. plays guitar, and I got a request one morning to “do eye shadow like the sunset finish on *this* guitar.”

          • the Muse

            i agree storm, I loved Sugar Sweet tbh but it wasn’t edge, it was alot of pastels and sweetness. They were going for macaroon themed makeup :-D! ha!!! 😀 play it!

    • Marina

      Genius Storm! I’d love some Harley Quinn themed makeup…I <3 her and the Joker. Actually, Batman as a whole rules.

      • Storm

        Even my nephew agrees on that one! 😀 He is Batman OBSESSED. And yes, Harley Quinn…awesome….. The looks! The colors!

  • Regina S

    How about a “True Blood” collection probably be a lot of red!

    • the Muse

      regina I want a thug fabulous liquid liner and metallic gold shadow a la Lafayette. girlfriend looks all kinds of gorgeous in his man liner!

  • Lauren S.

    TRUE BLOOD!!! I can already imagine a lovely crimson shade entitled “O Positive”. And of course there would have to be a splashy nail polish entitled “Lafayette”.

  • RonyaLii

    WoW 🙂 i would buy anything if they make cute logos like undead crest or Sylvanas Windrunner art on packaging . i love her fierce eyes .
    She would be perfect muse for blood red lipstick or nail polish .
    Hail for dark lady ! :p

  • Lily

    I would love to see a Sailor Moon collection! I grew up watching Sailor Moon with my sisters and we would always fight over which ‘Sailor Scout’ we were! I would collaborate with Swarovski Crystal to make the compacts really, really, really cute haha! The sky’s the limit right?

    • the Muse

      Sailor Moon would rock it Lily 😀 absolutely 😀 endless budget for this virtual muse 😀

  • Brooke

    Ooooooh…Rocky Horror Picture Show!? Too crazy? Or just crazy enough?….

    • the Muse

      brooke I’d BUY that! HUGE fan 😀

      Riff Raff
      I can make you a man
      Time Warp

      OMG the names are endless!

      I want lipstick named Dammit Janet!

      • Storm

        Would Damn It, Janet, be a sweet and innocent pink or nude? 😀

        Time Warp–mineralized e/s that swirls? Not veins, but SWIRLS. Or a new MSF? 😀

        Brooke–Great Idea! I love RHPS!

        • Brooke

          I’m a huge fan, too! I wasn’t sure if it was too crazy so I’m glad others agree! I love all of the ideas! I want to buy them now! haha

          I would also like a lipstick called “Sweet Transvestite From Transylvania”

          NARS names has nothing on RHPS!

    • Marina

      That’s perfect! I love RHPS! There would HAVE to be some sort of uber sparkly eyeshadow named Columbia. She’s my favorite 🙂

  • electronicfly

    Gossip Girl. Lol. Not because I love the show (teehee) but because hey, they use UBER alot of makeup on that show!

    Would love to see something on the different countries/cultures world wide too 😀 Though I think probably Nars would be a better brand to do it, since they already have stuff named after cities and all hehehe

  • ace

    hmm… audrey hepburn, definitely!! very classic shades, lots of neutral and smokey e/s and red lipstick/glosses etc… oooh and the inner geek in me screams DOCTOR WHO COLLECTION…

  • Melissa

    What a great post muse – everyone has such fun ideas! I think it would meet for them to do a Theater themed collection from long running productions. Phantom of the Opera would be great with coordinating packaging to match the costumes. 🙂 I could see Les Miserables being a popular and dark collection too.

  • Ryan

    Hmm… Maybe a Breakfast at Tiffany’s palette? There would be a gel liner, peachy blush, black or neutral shadows, and a pair of lashes. The box would look like a Tiffany’s box. That’s all I can think of. 🙁

  • Ryan

    Also, after further thought, I decided that sounds a lot more like a Benefit or Stila palette…. so I just suck at getting inside M.A.C.’s metaphorical head.

  • Selenite

    I would create a permanent collection free of gimmicky products that would bring MAC up to date with every other “pro” line. Has anyone noticed that practically everyone else has an HD line? Does MAC have one exclusive to pro stores or what?

  • Miss D

    Well, because I’m a Japanese lover and a goth at heart, I’d like to see something dedicated to helping you look like a “Gothic Lolita” model. Maybe different products could be key accessories to flatter some of the different clothing lines in the Gothic Lolita Bible mook (Baby, The Stars Shine Bright and Black Peace Now).
    Oh- even better! They could do makeup lines inspired by the J-rockers! Yeah! Who wouldn’t want to look like the Malice Mizer boys or have a makeup look like The Gazette! Bring it on! Wow! 🙂

    P.S.- The Sailor Moon and Final Fantasy ideas are great too- actually ALL the ideas are great. This is a fab question Muse!

  • Gia

    Welcome back Muse!
    Someone already said it but mario would be awesome! Yoshi greens! Golden Coin lipgloss! haha

    I would LOVE a Harry Potter themed collection! I imagine some blacks for Snape, Neutrals for Hermione, and glitter for Dumbledore!

    Ohh and an Archie Comic themed collection would be awesome! I have no idea how that would work out but I would buy it!

    And I love the disney idea but I want princess and not normal princess like Cinderella and sleeping beauty. But I want the odd princess like Jasmine and Mulan.

    And how about a sports themed collection? Hockey Puck eyeliner. Home Run lipgloss. Football grass eyeshadow. That way I could take my bf into the Mac store and he wouldn’t fall asleep! Plus I would get a kick out the names!

    I have way too many ideas I swear!

    • the Muse

      thanks gia it’s great to be back xoxo! I’d buy a HP themed collection in a HEARTBEAT! 😀

  • Mary

    I’d love to see a MAC My Little Pony collection. Just think of how colorful that would be with all the bright colors and My little pony packaging. Not the “new” My Little Ponies they have now, but featuring the original ones from the 80’s. I think a lot of people would buy it out of nostalgia.

    • the Muse

      OMG OMG OMG mary! YES! I grew up with my Little Pony and Rainbow Brite! and GLOW WORMSSSSSSSSSSS AHHHHHHHH! the possibilities of 80’s toys is endless!

  • Sarah

    Oh god i would love someone to do a disney princess one! that would be so cute! i really wish they would do some more paint pots! im dying to get hold of cash flow! maybe a reality tv collection would be in order! oh god ive deffo watched too much The Hills today 🙁 haha! xx

    • the Muse

      LOL Sarah a reality tv one that’s the best one I’v eheard all day!

  • sparklingpinkgorilla

    Juicy couture! And if I really had my way, Powerpuff girls haha! But I’d love to see a Jucy and Mac colab. Also, I second the betsey Johnson one. Leopard print and pink packaging!

  • Nunuiviet

    Hahahahahah reminds me of my childhood, I was addicted to this serie no joke
