Hi ladies! Today I've got swatches/thoughts on the MAC goodies I received for Christmas!
First off, the lipsticks:
Satin finish nude color. I've often heard people calling this their HG nude lip color, so I really wanted to try it out. I gotta say, when I first applied it I was a bit shocked, LOL. It's pretty intense and NUDE but when I applied a pink gloss over it, I liked it a bit more. This is a color I'm definitely going to need to play around with to find out how it best works for me.
Frost finish pink color. Another one of those colors I've heard great things about. I LOVE this lipstick. It's the only one out of the bunch that I've actually tried out and worn for a couple days, and it's soooo pretty, exactly the type of color I love. I can see this becoming a color I come back to day after day.
Snob:
On the lips:
Satin finish LIGHT baby/powder pink. I'm really loving the satin finish lipsticks, I love how pigmented they are and how they almost look matte on the lips, but with a tiiiny hint of sheen.
Swatches:
Eyeshadows:
From left to right: Trax, Satellite Dreams, All That Glitters, and Satin Taupe.
Trax:
I was a little disappointed when I swatched this because it wasn't as pigmented as I expected, and it looks like the glitter will cause fall out, but hopefully primer will sort that out! Either way it's a lovely color.
Satellite Dreams:
I really wanted a purple eyeshadow from MAC and this is the one I chose. Nicely pigmented and not too sparkly or anything.
All That Glitters:
I can definitely see this becoming a favorite of mine! A gorgeous gold color.
Satin Taupe:
A beautiful neutral color that will be great for everyday wear.
I have a gift card to spend and I'm tempted to get some things from the new collections that just came out, but I'm not sure, thoughts?? I think I may already have too much makeup to take back hahaha.
*I also received the brush cleanser, but I want to do a separate review post on that once I've actually used it, which should be soon! I've got some dirty brushes to sort out, hehe.
I want to buy All That Glitters! I'm new to MAC and I'm slowly making a list!
