April MAC Collection: Colour Ready

Here is the first upcoming MAC collection for the month of April! It is set to release April 2nd in the US and Canada. This is a fairly small collection by MAC standards and contains mostly items that are already in the Permanent or Pro line. The focus seems to be on 3 new products, two of which will be Perm and one will be Limited Edition (LE). There are two skincare items which have been developed with the idea of preparing and improving the skin for makeup, likely where the collection name "Colour Ready" came from . I'm especially excited to try the Prep+Prime Refined Zone since its main purpose is minimizing pores which I could alway use! I love the promo pic for this collection, the model's makeup is creative and striking, although the navy blue they used on her doesn't seem to be a part of this collection! So I'm curious about which product they used for that. I definitely have high hopes for the skincare items and hope I won't be disappointed!
