Whatever Tabby wants, Tabby gets! That’s right, Tabs threatened to swipe the living crap out my ankles if I didn’t take product pictures and swatch the new MAC Flighty collection, ASAP (damn cat).
He’s especially excited about the new Big Bounce Shadows ($16.50), a line of whipped mousse cream eyeshadows with a fluffy texture and pearly finish that MAC’s adding to their permanent line.
The MAC Flighty collection bounces onto MAC counters May 5 in North America and June internationally.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

OMG, I’m excited!
I say that I looove cream shadows, so if the staying power is good, than I need all of them – cause the colors are stunning!
The shadows, I’m drooling over them!!
Wow, you’ve got tons of awesome posts today! I can’t wait to hear reviews on the shadows!
Karen! Does High Esteem have shimmer/is it metallic or is it just a dark, matte gray? Thanks! <3
These are absolutely gorgeous..counting down the days til they become available 🙂
i have a couple of those big bounce eyeshadows in my list — rich thrills and count your asset.
i am gaga for mousse/cream eyeshadows. 🙂
I’m just drooling over the cream shadows… I want all of them! Especially Spread The Wealth, Ricj Thrills and Rich, Sweet :).
Oooo! They’re gorgeous! I love how shiny they are! I can’t wait to try them out.
Wow! These look fabulous! If they wear well then I’m gonna be all over them! 🙂
Why are they call Big Bounce? That name is just so weird. I can’t wait to see how you use these in a look Karen! And also how they compare to my HG- Benefit’s creaseless creams.
Oooooooooo 🙂 gonna get me a few of those……especially Rich,Sweet…sucker for browns. I wonder if they are finger or brush friendly ……?
Thanks Karen !
I really like Spread the Wealth! At least, I like the way it looks in the jar. The swatches seem a little underwhelming to me. You should totally do a look with these.
OMG, I am COMPLETE obsessed with the summer MAC and NARS summer collections!!
They look like they won’t work on oily lids :/
I was thinking the same thing… sadly… I’m super oily and these *look* like they won’t even be able to stand up with a primer:(:(
My chest actually ached for a second when I saw the cream shadows. I have The Wants. Badly.
oh wow just beautiful! can’t wait to see the review!
How is the wear on them? Do they compare to paint pots?
Those look so gorg! I hope they don’t crease.
the shadows are definitely interesting! how well do they set?
wow! the whipped shadows look AMAZING…and i’d love the green mascara
These look super interesting. What’s the texture of the cream shadows like? They look rather dense and, for lack of a less disgusting word, “moist” for being called a mousse shadow.
I know that a lot of people are excited about this collection, but I’m actually more interested in the colored mascaras than the new eye shadows. I’ve already got way too many eye shadows in my collection and I hear that these crease easily and aren’t long-lasting. I hope that’s not true, but they look a little too liquidy in the pot.
Hmm. :(. I like the sheen they have but they look somewhat sheer to me.
They look dangerous. I can see myself sitting with this open on the counter while I’m doing my makeup, and then knocking it off with my elbow and eyeshadow splattering everywhere on impact!
I AM SO EXCITED! And will be broke!
I love cream shadows, and these look really fun!
Love, love, love! I don’t have any MAC products, I have been devoted to Benefit and Urban Decay, but I’m thinking a trip to the MAC counter is in my future.
Looks like meringue.
These are weird! I love the name though. “Big Bounce” sounds like a hip hop song or the title of a campy movie lol!
Glad to see they are adding mousse shadows to the perm line. 🙂
These look great! Hope they don’t crease!
Oh these are beautiful!!! How is the texture? The look so liquidy. Do they dry fast and can you layer them? I already just added 3 of them to my wishlist! So excited! Thanks for posting!
wow… look at that texture! i’m loving the black
Ooh, they look so… liquidy! I’m really hoping the texture translates well into wear (that is, that they won’t crease) – can’t wait to read the review 🙂
Oooh I hope they’ll stay well and be pigmented! And blend well!
thanks for the swatches karen! the big bounce shadows sound really awesome and im glad they are adding them to the permanent line so i have a chance to try them all!
Do let us know if the shadows stays on. I hope that they are just as good as Bobbi Brown cream shadows. Love those!
Hi Karen
Did you get a chance to wear the shadows? If so what did you think of them and do they crease? Also, are they defo permanent as I heard they were going to be limited…..
OMG, I pretty much need that green mascara in my life noooow. Gorgeous!
Omg they’re whipped! I can’t wait to test the texture in store. Thank goodness they will be permanent. No rush, no rush 🙂
I am really curious to swatch it just to feel the texture – it’s really interesting.
OMG, the cream shadows are amazing!!
I’ve heard from a couple of different blogs and MAC Artists that the Big Bounce shadows are actually Limited Edition. Which, depending on their quality, could be a good or bad thing.
Really thank God this is going to be in the permanent line. At least I don’t have to purchase all the shades that I like and WANT at once! 😀
Oh, me likey!! 🙂
I have to say I am a MAC addict, I’m a huuuge fan of their new stuff….for the most part. I have to say that I have been very disappointed in this last spring release not quite cute, this most recent, and this surf baby……cream shadows for a summer line release, really MAC? I feel these will be an excellent color base, however to use alone, and for greasepot lids like mine, umm..NO!
Their eyeshadows…grey, teal, white, yellow and pink? I was expecting more of a metallic and pastel line, and again I am a little disappointed. I will buy some of the surf baby, just because I always buy a portion of the limited items and hold onto them. I’m a HUGE fan of the theme quads, I eat those up, even if I don’d care for the colors or they are duplicates, I generally stock up on 2 of each theme quads. Well Power to MAC and better luck next product launch!!
