M·A·C: Wonder Woman

(Photo Credit: maccosmetics.com)

My Wonder Woman package finally got here a couple of days ago.
I was anxiously waiting for it and think it got delayed because of the blizzard.
I only got three things:

I like the box packaging better than the compact packaging lol.
It reminds me of children's makeup, but it's what's inside that counts.

First things first, this msf is huge! (0.70 oz.)
If you have a light complexion you can use the trio as a highlight, bronzer & blush, but you can also mix them together to create different shades.
The blush can work as a nice highlight on darker skin tones.
I think these shades can be dupable so if you can't get your hands on it you can probably find other products that will work just as well.
It is nice however to have a trio like this to throw in your makeup bag & for traveling so that you don't have to haul around tons of makeup.
I really like the lipstick packaging, I love the red star detail against the gold on the top part of the tube.


This lipstick is a pinky-nude with a lustre finish.
If Hue (satin) and The Faerie Glen l/e (lustre) had a baby it'd be Marquise d'.


This lipstick is a deep magenta with a satin finish.
It has more red undertones than Petals & Peacocks l/e (amplified).

The collection launches in stores and counters tomorrow.
Have you guys pick up anything from this collection yet?
If not, what's on your list?

M·A·C Haul: Cham Pale, M·A·C + Mickey Contractor & Peacocky Collections

I'm so glad this post is finally up! It took a long time for me to work on it because I was sick when I started it and then I put it off to the side.
I bought everything when it came out so I've had plenty of time to use everything.
You can still find some of these things online or at a MAC store or counter.

Chez Chez Lame is a light gold Special Reserve Highlight with shimmer. It applies smooth with an off white sheen.

Yash is peachy-beige matte lipstick. It's actually pretty creamy and not drying.

These Kissable Lipcolours have been described as a liquid lipstick and I couldn't agree more. I only got Woo Me but I loved it so much that I got a back up. It's a pinky-beige and pretty opaque. It reminds me a lot of Hue.
Paparazz-she was the first Mega Metal Shadow that I added to my cart because it's nothing like anything else I own. This eye shadow is an orange-copper and very pigmented with a metallic sheen.

Spectacle of Yourself is a cross between a chocolate brown and a bronze. It is a very pigmented eye shadow and also has a metallic sheen.


Centre Stage is a bronzy-chocolate brown, also very pigmented and with a metallic sheen.

I would have to say that my favorite products from this haul were Chez Chez Lame, Woo Me and Paparazz-she. Did any of you get anything from any of these collections?
