Mac in the Groove Haul and Review

4 July 2010

I hadn't realised there was a new collection (cue running to Mac Pro)!

Collection page is here

Overall I was impressed with the eyeshadow trios, lipsticks, cremesheen glosses and mineralise blush duos. The MSF's will be lovely for those that collect them and Stereo Rose has had a lot of interest, including from me but not everyone likes shine.







I like eyeshadow trios as three is the most I tend to wear for everday and it also cuts the 'shop your stash' time in the morning when trying to find a nice pairing of shadows. They are also perfect if you aren't that great at colour co-ordination. I bought Soften The Mood.  The pale blue hasn't a huge amount of pigmentation but you can layer it or apply it over a cream colour base for more impact. The three colours look great together and since pale ice blue is THE colour for the upcoming months I thought I would get in there early and be on trend for a change. I am very happy with this.


I was instantly drawn to the lipstick Jazzed as I love Ever Hip from the Liberty of London collection and this is fairly similar although it is better in my opinion as it's a creamsheen. I also got the On The Scene Cremesheen glass since it looked like my sort of colour. I really like it over the top of Jazzed to make it more evening appropriate.


Next was the mineralise blush duo in Happy Together. I use the dark side as a blush/bronzer and the other side as a glistening gold highlight. I know it's not had as much excitement as the Stereo Rose but I think this is brilliant, and also perfect for travel or handbag as you can mix both colours together and use them separately.



Lastly I picked up the MSF in Stereo Rose.  If you are pale just use a light hand or a fan brush to apply.

I paid my local mac counter a visit on Friday and picked up two things. I got the cremesheen glass in 'going casual' which is a really nice shade, I really like it and it seems to last quite a long time.

I also got an eyeshadow trio in 'Fresh & Easy' which has the same(ish) ice blue in it so I'm quite chuffed you think it's going to be an 'in' colour. It also has a pink and a pinky-purply browny shimmery strip too.

Cant decide if I need Jazzed in my life or not, I have ever hip, but the gloss looks lovely and the e/s trio

Lovely haul

@Anca thanks I love them too x

@scouselovesmakeup going to see Jo from beautyliciouslove as that's where she lives, very exciting.

@Stefy good luck, bluewater have them in stock if you can get there x

@sweetest_potato I was really impressed, never had a creamsheen glass before, Chanel are coming out with an ice blue nailvarnish so I reckon it will deffo be the colour of the rest of the year x

@LMD__its love you look good in pink though hun, does the pink lippie in the collection not appeal?

The On The Scene lipgloss looks like the perfect pinky-nude I've been looking for. And I can't wait to dry the blush duo! Thanks for sharing!
