MAC Blush Collection 

If you don't know already I have always been a MAC Cosmetics fan from the foundations to the lipsticks they are always a brand I turn to. MAC have such a pretty range of blusher colours from peach to pinks they have a shade for all skin tones and looks you desire to achieve. I thought it would be an idea to share with you all of my MAC Cosmetic blushers.

I love a good blusher, I mean who doesn't right? My MAC blush collection has a variety of deep plums to more of a brighter pink and peach. I tend to wear my plum and pink shades in the colder months and my peach blushers when I have more of a tan during the spring/summer time. 

Dollymix

Dollymix was actually the first blusher I purchased from MAC Cosmetics. I had a day out in London with the family and MAC had released a collection with Dollymix as a featured blusher, a beautiful sheertone shimmer blush that adds warmth and a subtle sheen to the skin. I would say the colour is sheer but you can build it up that little bit more, the shimmer is stunning and can give the skin a beautiful glow so no wonder why I had to repurchase this one.

 Petal Power

This blusher is one I had heard of time and time again from blogs I had read. Petal Power is a mineralize blusher meaning it is made up of minerals which are then ground and made into tiny particles. This blusher is pink with a beautiful thread of gold going through it, it is pigmented and adds a stunning highlight and colour to the face. 

Peaches

Peaches is such a pretty summery shade, it reminds me of all things summery! Peaches is a sheertone matte pastel peach that gives a gentle sweep of colour that you can build a bit more. The colour is beautiful with a tan but also super pretty on fairer skin. This is my go to spring summer shade.

Just A Pinch

MAC blusher, MAC Cosmetics best products, MAC best blushers, Mac makeup, Best blushers, mac review, 
Just a pinch is an extra dimensional blusher that has a striking metallic sheen to it, it is a blusher I think is a must have with a tan its absolutely stunning and gives my skin such a stunning finish. I have also used this as an eyeshadow, it has such a pop to it and mixed with plum shades its a perfect combination. 

Breath Of Plum

As you can see Breath Of Plum is one that I use daily, it is beautiful on all skin types and gives a stunning "breath of plum" to the cheeks. This is sheertone blusher giving a little sweep of colour to the cheeks, it has such warmth and is perfect for those colder months.

So that is my MAC blush collection, what is your favourite blusher?

MAC Dare You Lipstick Review

I am pretty excited for the month of October, candles, pretty autumnal leaves, hot chocolate and the start of the exciting celebrations that Autumn and Winter bring so I couldn't resist adding these beautiful Halloween pumpkin lights from TKMaxx to my photos to showcase my new MAC lipstick.

I am someone who has to have a dark lip over the autumn winter months otherwise I feel a bit naked! I had my 6 empty products to do Back to MAC and pick my 5th millionth lipstick. I decided I wanted a new deep red and was drawn to a few but in the end I picked Dare You, a Cremesheen finish. The lipstick has blue undertones which suit me the best, the consistency is creamy and my lips feel super soft whilst wearing this lipstick. The lipstick isn't as long wearing as the MAC Matte finishes but the pigmentation is good and the colour is divine, it has an almost shiny sparkly look to it, it has what appears to be tiny little bits of sparkle in it but is not obvious or chunky so that's a bonus. So if you are after a new red lipstick then look no further then MAC Dare You.
Have you tried this or have a favourite red lip?

Review: Kylie Jenner Lipstick- MAC Lipstick Velvet Teddy

I am seriously late on this bandwagon! I had collected enough empties to get the Back To Mac where you exchange 6 empties for a free lipstick, can not go wrong with that now can we! So I picked the Velvet Teddy that Kylie Jenner famously uses to create her lip look.
It is a matte lipstick with a brown/orange nude tone. I feel this would suit any skin tone, it is truly gorgeous and can see why people adore this lipstick. I find the MAC matte finish lasts hours and does not need a lot of reapplying, this isn't particularly dry which is rare with the MAC matte finish. I team this lipstick with a gold smokey eye and for the day a more natural brown smokey look which compliments this shade, any eye shadow would go with this colour, it is so versatile.

Review: MAC Prabal Gurung Collection




As you know I am a huge MAC fan, and when they release collections I get super excited! This collection was released before christmas and was a small collection, well compared to some.

Prabal Gurung is a Nepalese fashion designer collaborated with MAC for this beautiful collection, the collection used heavy gold metal to cover the beautiful products. I purchased the eyeshadow duo in Terre. The packaging oozes high end glamour, has to be one of my favourite packaged beauty products. It feels luxurious and has a magnetic clasp to help keep the product shut with a handy mirror.

Terre to me means earth in french, hopefully I am right with that! So to me the colours represented the earth. The colours are stunning, a metallic neutral shade with hints of pink teamed with a deep chocolate brown. The combination is stunning, this has now become a daily favourite in my makeup bag.
