Mac Peacocky Collection

So Ive been avoiding getting sucked into the large amount of Mac collections continually coming out because i was broke from Christmas present shopping!  But when I was Tempalia gave these shadows an A+ rating (she NEVER gives A+ ratings) I knew I had to check them out. And boy am I glad I did.  The texture of these shadows is perfection!  I went straight to the nearest MAC counter after work on the day this came out.  Heres pics of all the shadows, and lipglosses.

So of the lipglosses I got Enchantée (Light blue pink), and Scandelicious (Blue fuchsia)  They are both awesome!  Enchantee is the perfect pale pink, and Scandelicious is a bright beautiful fuchsia pink!

As for eyeshadows I got Mating Call (Dirty frosted violet), Tweet Me (Gold Bronze), Unflappable (Frosted black with purple pearl), Prance (Frosted mauve pearl ), and Center Stage(Frosted chocolate brown)

It was so hard to limit myself to just those!  Tweet Me is the only one Im not sure of, its a beautiful color but is a little to red/orange based, and I thought it made me look sick when I had it on my lid.

I've heard a lot of good things about Specktackle of Yourself, and I might be going back to check it out!

I will be posted swatches tomorrow!

Fabulous Felines Haul, Review and Swatches

Sorry Ive been MIA lately!   I have a bunch to catch up on!   I know this is a little late, but here's my Fabulous Feline Haul! 

I wanted to get more but I am pretty broke so I had to limit my purchases to the following three items!!

Burmese Beauty Quad

Showstopper, Burmese Beauty, Skintone 2, Prized

This is a beautiful quad!  the colors are dupe-able in my opinion, but not with things I have, hence why I bought it!  Showstopper is just a dark midtone brown, maybe like Charcoal Brown, Burmese Beauty is like Club, Skintone 2 is a really pretty light golden color, and Prized is a perfect peachy neutral.  Over all it can be used for a million different looks!

I will be posting looks using this quad soon so check back!

The other items I got were two pigments, Lithe and Bloodline.

Lithe is the perfect golden toned highlighting color,  its a peach based gold and is just too gorgeous.  You could used it on your eyes, or cheekbone as a highlight.  

Bloodline is similar to moth brown, they both have that taupe-grey-purplish color that is beautiful! 


What did you get from Fabulous Feline!!?

I would love to know what people got from Fabulous Felines and what they liked!

Smashbox Ultimate Eyes Kit - for Blue Eyes

So I have mentioned before that I purchase the kit - Smashbox Master's Class: Ultimate Eyes - Blue at Sephora.  It is $59.  And yes, I bought it myself!

Heres whats included

- 0.04 oz Limitless Eye Liner in Espresso

- 0.273 oz Eye Shadow Quad in Ultimate Eyes-Blue

- 0.3 oz Hyperlash Mascara in Blackout

- 0.035 oz Artificial Light Luminizing Powder

- 0.08 oz Photo Finish Lid Primer

- 0.05 oz Cream Eye Liner in Obsidian

 

I finally got to play with it today!

I did the most natural look that is included in a booklet with three different looks.

 

 

 

So its basically just a wash of the lighter brown color over your entire lid into crease, the darker brown smudged in the outer V and under eye.  The highlighting powder in the inner corner, and I added the Obsidian as a liner.

Its a subtle look, but I really like it! The colors are most definitely flattering to blue eyes.  I am not thrilled with the liner,  I don't think Smashbox cream liners last a very long time, but it is a pretty color!

I love the quad, and all four colors. I love that they threw in a darker grey creme liner, because I sometimes think too much brown, makes your eyes look more red (warm based browns obviously) The highlighting powder is amazing! Only thing. The sponge applicator has sooo much product on it when you take it out of the tube, that you cant apply i directly to your face or you will end up with a big blob of highlighter. So i just ran my small pointed tip eyeshadow brush across the top and used that. I haven't used the brown liner yet, and I don't plan on every using the mascara (I stick with my nars and shu uemura mascara). But all in all I think the kit is definitely worth the $59.

I will try the smokier look and post the results of those looks soon!
