MAC Cinderella Collection 2015

Hello loves! How have you all been? I'm sorry I have been very busy with my personal stuff and I wasn't able to update the blog as much. I have tons of new stuff to talk about and I promise to write a new entry whenever I can :)

Last week, MAC released two new limited edition collections and I was lucky enough to get some items. They released the MAC Toledo (which I will be having a separate review) and the MAC Cinderella collection.

MAC said early last year that they will be releasing a collection in line with the new Disney film Cinderella. I am a fan of old school Disney movies and I collect limited edition MAC items. For this collection, I only bought two items:

I bought the LE lipstick in Royal Ball and the LE Cinderella packaging of the Beauty powder in Coupe D' Chic. I know the beauty powder is not limited edition as you can buy it on regular MAC powder case. 

The lipstick comes in a pretty grayish blue packaging with a hint of gold. I really like the packaging. The lipstick itself if sort of like a muted pink. It's not as opaque as my other MAC lipsticks when swatched on the back of my hand but when applied on the lips, it does translate the color.

The beauty powder is a regular in MAC counters but is sold in limited edition packaging.

The shade is in Coup D' Chic. I am so far pretty impressed with this beauty powder. It makes my face luminous and glowy. I really like it. I might include it in my March favorites :)

 I asked the consultant at MAC as to what's the difference between a beauty powder and a setting powder. He said that the beauty powder is used after setting your makeup. It makes your pores disappear and make your face look more refined. 

I choose the pink one as he said it is more dramatic than the pearl shade beauty powder. 

There are other products in this collection as seen on the picture above but I only got the lipstick and the beauty powder. 

I would love to hear your thoughts on the new MAC Cinderella collection. Share your thoughts on the comment section below :)

National Lipstick Day

Hello ladies and gents!

I was browsing Facebook earlier today and I saw that it is National Lipstick Day!

Just wanted to greet everyone with my new baby... The limited edition MAC Kelly Osbourne Kelly Yum Yum which is a Satin Finish. 

I saw this yesterday at the MAC store and it was just recently launched. I wanted to buy the other lipsticks but I saw that they were Matte finishes. I just bought this one instead. 

It has a pretty lilac packaging and it has Kelly Osbourne's signature on the box.

The bullet casing also is in lilac. Very lovely color indeed. Retails for RM 74 at MAC Cosmetics. 

MAC Alluring Aquatic Collection

Hello Ladies! Sorry for being MIA. I had to juggle my schedule for errands and after a few weeks, I am finally back here in Malaysia. 

Anyways, I was surprised last night because my husband bought me the Limited Edition MAC Alluring Aquatic Lipstick and Blush. In my knowledge, I know this was not released in Manila. I love the packaging of the items.

It has the pop-up water like design. It's so lovely. Prior to my husband buying this...I was actually hesitant because a lot of youtubers/vloggers were saying they were quite disappointed with the collection because the products were not  as good. They recommended to buy the lipstick which is the Enchanted One. I told my husband to look for it at MAC and he bought it for me. The blush was just a bonus.

I love the packaging. It's so gorgeous. 

This is the Echanted One. It's actually a nude type of lipstick. I tried it on and I consider this a MLBB (My Lips But Better) shade. 

My lips without lipstick

My lips with the MAC Enchanted One.

The formula of the lipstick is Matte. A bit dry for my liking but since the shade is nice, I would wear it. 

This is the blush in See Me, Hear Me. The packaging is gorgeous. It only has the water like embellishment on top but at the bottom, there's none. 

The color is a rosey-mauve color. I actually don't like the formula of this one. It took me 3 swipes on my finger before I can see the pigment. I'll let you know my thoughts in the coming days when I play with it but overall, I like the lipstick.
