Makeup Geek Hits The MAC Cult of Cherry Event
By marlena • Aug 14th, 2008 • Category: TutorialsAt this Cult of Cherry event we got to try out and buy items from the new collection before they go on sale to the public. Now, you’ll have to wait for the 21st of August. That is, unless you want to buy some on eBay from the sellers looking to make a quick buck. (make sure the seller has a good reputation)
Here’s the three quads from the collection — just a few of the things I got last night. I’ll post swatches soon. Keep checking back
Tempting Quad (eBay)

Spiced Chocolate Quad (eBay)

Shadowly Lady Quad (eBay)


Hi Marlena!
My name is Luciana and I’m Brazilian. I have a blog written in Portuguese and as I LOVE all your videos I’ve just told all my readers about your website and your You Tube channel.
Hope that’s ok.
Take care,
I loved this..thanks!
How did you find out about the events?
wow! this collection looks great! i can’t wait to go to my mac store this saturday. i hope they will still have these quads avaliable!!
Thanks Marlena for this. I’ve been waiting all day (I know I need to get a life) with baited breath to hear what you thot of the collection IRL
Oh, I am just DROOLING over here!! Especially for the Tempting and Shadowy Lady Quads!! Ack!! They look SO good!!
Ooooh…that Cult Of Cherry lipgloss is purdy! I was real excited about that one from the descriptions I’ve seen, that’s a must get for me
I like the Shadowy Lady quad too…I love my dark e/s colors! I’ll have to swatch that Tempting quad though, me and yellow based colors don’t always get along. If that green works on me that’s a must get too.
Marlena,
YOU ARE TOTALLY MS. MAC!! Looks like absolute mayhem and ‘fun central’. I’m into the city tomorrow to the MAC store.
I always feel reborn when I wear new colors,,,,i’t’s absolutely therapeutic. BTW Marlena, you’re a beautiful lady inside and out and I mean that very sincerely.

Hi Marlena!
Thank you so much for showing us these new products! I visit your site every day and have started really going crazy with my eyes. You have truly inspired me and I think you are and amazing and beautiful person. Come visit NYC sometime!
That looked like so much fun for all the MAC lovers!
Marlena your E/S Looked georgeus in that vid! I would love to know what colors you were wearing!!
Hi Marlena!
Looks like you had a lot of fun! i”ve been to a few of those makeup events and i love them! lots of energy! The shadows are beautiful and I loved the lipglosses. by the way, i live about 20 mintues away from that mall and it’s called “the somerset collection”. it’s wonderful. I don’t have that much mac but the litle i have i always buy from a counter inside a department store. i’m going to go to the mac store (it’ll be my first time in one) and check it out. I really want to try out some mac pigments. anyway, thanks for sharing, it was a really fun video.

You lucky, lucky girl! =)
I want all of the quads too… lol, but I guess I will have to settle for one! I really like those lipglasses too! Might have to grab one of those.
for the Spiced Chocolate Quad, is that bottom left color anything like cranberry and the top right one like firespot?
LOVE it !!
congratulate!!!
Hi Marlena how did you get to purchase in advance?
Lucky you!! Thanks for the swatches on the quads, now I must get all!! LOL And I didn’t think I’d like Jam Packed but geez!! I really liked it so I will be checking out the other dark lip stuff. I can’t wait to see you doing some looks with these and also to see your Over rich haul!! Thanks once again
OMG i wish they have these quads in Amsterdam too!!!
The Spiced Chocolate will definitely be mine!!! But the Tempting Quad looks good, too. Hmm….I need a second job….LOL Thanx for the review Marlena! As always, you did a great job.
Waow ! I’m usually not very fond of pink gloss, but this Chery Cult is beautiful, as soon as it will arrive in France, I’ll get it !
Savage Garden song :), I didn’t know they’re known in US too :p.
Btw, just want to say how PRETTY and talented you are, especially love your Hillary Duffs tutes just because I love neutrals :). I want to copy the J.Lo one but I’ll look silly in reddish-plum :p.
Looking forward to your tute with Shadowy Lady quad!
Thanks for the swatches and the preview of the products! I can’t wait til they come out so I can get my hands on some
Hi, Marlena — just happened to tune in to you through Google, and you seen to be grounded, which is good. Enjoy your tutorials, even though I have no MAC cosmetics. Keep up the good makeup!!!
Hey Marlena. Thanks for showing your haul. I am immediately drawn to the Spiced Chocolate Quad. However, the more I look it at the more I think of Bold and Brazen from Starflash, Cranberry and Embark. Would these be dupes or are they quite different? Thanks.
They all look great. I never knew you had swatches of so much color. Thanks, this is very helpful since MAC color chart isnt up to part. I hope when you have time you can post swatches of lipsticks and blushes as well
Oh I cant wait for a look from your tempting quad 
Oh crap, I meant for so “MANY” colors ^^^^^^^^^
How much did they cost?
Marlena makeupgeek.com is so awesome
Can you do a Avril Lavigne look the one she does in her Girlfriend video?
Thanks
You are so adorable! I love the cult of cherry lipglass and the spiced chocolate quad! I wanttttt… I might see about picking them up when I’m in Dallas next week! *yay*
xoxo

OMG! I love Spiced Chocolate Quad & Shadowly Lady Quad!!!! That blue is beautiful! Just to bad I can’t get myself to but any MAC. When I was out in Vegas they have a MAC store in Forum Towers…and I was soooooooo tempted! But it too expensive for me. But loving the colors!
Marlena, I found a MAC store and I am so excited and it is just 30 minutes away!!. However, the quads do not come out in Tenn until the 21st :-(.
