MAC Archie's Girls Collection: Betty or Veronica?

Here's Your Sunday Scoop! I was pretty excited to read about this upcoming collaboration. MAC Cosmetics will be coming out with an 'Archie's Girl's' Makeup Line. It's based on the classic comic book 'Archie' . This comic book was way before my time, but I always come across pictures from it and chuckle.

I did a little research and it features, Archie Andrews, Betty Cooper (nice, sweet, funny, girl next door blonde) and Veronica Lodge (rich, posh, sometimes good-hearted, sometimes spoiled , sexy and vain brunette).

Both ladies are best friends, but were always vying for Archie's attention and affection. There seemed to be a constant love triangle. HaHaHa So are YOU a BETTY or VERONICA?

Excited? Ok, Good News and Bad News! 

GOOD NEWS: MAC is asking their customers to text 898622 with the subject of "Betty" or "Veronica". The company will base the look and feel of the collection on whichever girl receives the most text votes (and just by texting you'll be one of the first to know when the collection is available online and when I did it I received a free shipping code for my next order with MAC). *Msg and Data Rates May Apply!
  
BAD NEWS: The collection doesn't come out until Spring 2013! Oh, the wait! HaHaHa

    I love how MAC always has collaboration with characters or art on their make up. I own a Fafi range lipstick from MAC.

    You went missing for a while and come back with soooooo many goodness that I can't quite catch up with your posts. It's 4:20am now and I'm sleepy. I will catch up with your posts soon!

    I never got why the girls are friends because Veronica is so often mean to Betty and they want the same guy! Bizarre! Maybe Betty is just THAT nice to tolerate her? Too bad you can't vote for Archie or Jughead- MAC should just do a whole line based on the gang!

    So cute! The comic was before my time too but I have read a few back issues of it. Totally cute. I'd like to say I'm a mix between Betty and Veronica.

    This is the cutest thing. I am actually a big fan of the Archie comics...used to read them all the time and draw them when bored. Betty is my fave, but Veronica has better style.

    Hard to choose, I like Betty more but Veronica is the stylish one!

    This is a cute idea. I always liked Veronica more because she was a brunette like me.
