I am still hoping for a shimmery variation on the new Velvet Matte lipstick formula. A full-coverage Velvet Frost formula. I love peach, tan, interesting rose shades, metallics...
More Prism and duochrome shadows (they get better and better!), especially green, tan, and navy.
Light ash brow cream please
How about a super anti-aging, collagen-boosting lip serum? Something to be worn under Smooth and Full or other lipstick. I would LOVE that!

I would love to see some body care products with colloidal oatmeal as a star ingredient for the eczema-prone types. A body wash would be especially good.
I would also like to see some really pigmented ALGs. And perhaps a new formula of glossy lip products that leave a pigmented stain?

Thank you all for the requests! There are a ton of good ones!
Does anyone have any specific color requests for the matte lipsticks??? Pics are very very helpful
The Heroine/Purple lipstick- matte, or the creamier formula? No promises, but it's good to know.

As for the Heroine lipstick dupe, I would most definitely prefer the matte version. I think it would be better since it will stay longer on the lips without needing to reapply. I at least feel more secure with bright matte lips, because the colour will not smudge.
As for the other matte lipsticks, I agree with others and I would enjoy something leaning orange/peach. For example I like the colour of NARS Audacious in Catherine and Geraldine (

Karen. the MAC Violetta/purple is close to your eye shadow Stinger but a tad darker and more opaque on the lips. A bright clean purple. I hope this can help in seeing a vision for a color. I do not have Heroine but its a deeper than Violetta and a purple also.
Edit: if you go to the MAC site and look under the lipstick swatches you will see both on the 1st page.

Sorry but personally I don't like the Matte formula.Yes they stay on longer but they dry your lips out much sooner.The creamy ones feel so much better. Karen ,you say you never nailed the gloss applicator but the original one is the same applicator that Mac uses for their lipglosses.Doefoot applicators.Maybe just one basic color like a pinky nude or a gold? I understand .

So apparently contouring is all the rage now and I keep seeing contour palettes popping up left and right. Silk Naturals already has products that can be used for this purpose like bronzers and highlighters, but maybe a kit of those would be nice

Would make it a little less intimidating than trying to pick our own colors.
Also, I have been getting a lot more into matte and suede eyeshadows lately and I would love a really light highlight matte shadow that is kind of an ivory type shade. I have Bone but because I am quite pale this does not look very highlighter-y on me and just kind of blends in with my natural skintone. Maybe there is already a shade lighter than this, I am not sure. I did see Void, but am hoping more for of an Ivory rather than a white. And if it could have just a touch of the glow that Close Up has. So basically a mix of Bone, Void, and Close up, I think that would be perfect.

oh and for the matte lipsticks I have some ideas. I was looking though runway makeup, and I love this nude pink lip that is on the girl that is on the right:

or these lips colors, especially the left one that is a little cool toned
