MAC HOLIDAY SHOPPING SPREE


This is just a short and sweet video of my MAC Holiday Haul. I bought both of the Little Darlings Warm and Cool eyes Pigments / Glitters and the Passions of Red cool eyes palette. I also bought the warm and smokey eyes palettes but I gave both of them to my sister for her birthday. So unfortunately I wasn't able to include either one of them in this video. However my sister is really pleased with them and has received a lot of compliments on her makeup. Yeah!!! I am so happy for her!! I'm so sorry for not uploading any new videos in a while. I have been so busy working that I have gotten behind on them. Hopefully I can catch up on them all real soon.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this really short video! Thanks for watching!

MAC DAME EDNA


"Hallo Possums!" As mirthfully minx-like and tongue-in-chic as her dazzling persona, Dame Edna's eponymous limited-edition colour collection reveals the wit of her makeup passions...Like our muse, it's "spectacular"!
Everyone is talking about the new MAC collection - DAME EDNA. This collection will be out Dec 26th.

Think bright bold purples, blues, pinks, and corals and that’s exactly what this collection is all about. The biggest controversy surrounding this collection is the packaging itself. It is “sticker-gate” all over again. The bright colorful glasses that you see adhered to the lip products are just that, stickers. Ugh!!

Now as disappointing as that may seem, the colors of the products more than make up for the packaging. So I for one am really excited about this collection. In addition, for those of us who have green eyes the blue and purple eye shadows will really make them “POP” and stand out! Oh my! Now don't forget to check out the face charts for this collection. They are located on the MAC website under the "looks" tab at the top of the page. So many wonderful ideas and uses for this collection I just can't stand it!!!

Let me know what you think... Here is a peak at what I got!

I am so excited about the MAC Chill collection. Think winter skies and you guessed it..

This collection is a spectrum of grays, pinks, white and black colors. Although I haven't heard a lot of buzz about this collection I am definitely stoked about it. For starters the various colors offer a myriad of smokey eye looks. So much so that it is insane! That being said, I do however wish that MAC had offered some face charts for this collection because this would be the perfect starter set for someone new to MAC cosmetics.

This is a "must" buy for the beginner. Here is a pic of my haul from this collection:
