Mac VERA pearlglide eyeliners

so i have had an experience with these liners before because undercurrent is a color i purchased in a previous collection




these are the colors i own and are in the vera collection and a little side note i think i LOVED the Vera collection more than the Shop Mac Cook MAc collection i pretty much bought this entire collection :)

the first shade is INDUSTRIAL which is a Blue with lots of purple throughout it i don't own any liner like this one and am very happy about it. this is actually to me the eyeliner form of Lancomes Luring which is one of my FAV colors!




Next is BlackSwan this is a Black Eyeliner with Silver and i also see some blue to it another color i haven't seen anything like it.




next is Designer Purple ok again i had to have it PURPLE! LOL i love this color is just a beautiful Purple liner with purple glitter throughout it




and last is undercurrent a teal with gold reflex throughout it i wish they had an eyeshadow like this and if anyone does know of a eyeshadow like this let me know asap I don't know why but i feel like why doesnt NARS have an Eyeshadow like this because i know alot of Nars eyeshadows tend to have those reflex throughout them but never the less i love this Liner shade so amazing



Swatches: from left to right
Undercurrent, Designer Purple, Black Swan, Industrial




i have the line with the colors in 1 pass and the square is the color built up

do you see how amazing these are so beautiful!



i rate these a 10 get them if they aren't sold out :)

Mac call me Bubbles

so this palette i really wanted to ignore but i couldn't after seeing how lovely the colors really are in the palette





Swatches:
all these colors were applied over my nyx jumbo pencil in milk




Shades:

CALL ME BUBBLES: SATIN THIS COLOR I WANT TO DESCRIBE AS A VANILLA WITH SMALL GOLD REFLEX IN IT I LOVE THIS COLOR FOR A HIGHLIGHT

FRESH DAILY: FROST I AM NO WHERE NEAR A FAN OF ORANGE BUT THIS SHADE I DO LOVE BECAUSE ITS NOT AN IN YOUR FACE ORANGE ITS MORE OF A TANGERINE WITH GOLD UNDERTONES I CAN SEE THIS COLOR BEING USED FOR A NEUTRAL LOOK

FULL OF FLAVOUR: MATTE THIS IS A DEEP PINK KIND OF LIKE SUSHI PAPER BUT WITH BETTER COLOR PAY OFF IT BLENDS SO NICELY AND IS NOT CHALKY

BRASH: vELUXE PEARL THIS SHADE IS SO BUTTERY AND SMOOTH I ADORE IT! I LOVE HOW I JUST SWIPE MY FINGER ONCE AND I GET THIS AMAZING COPPERY FIRERY COLOR THE STAR OF THE SHOW



i love this palette and i am happy i didnt Opt out on it, because it was def worth it


i rate this one a 10 :)

Mac Shop&Drop Quad

So as you all know in my previous post i am a sucker for purples and when i saw this palette in the promo photos i wanted to scream! i loved the look of this palette and now having it i love it even more!






so as you can see this palette has a very lovely combo of purples and a dark blue color i say this is such a perfect color combo IMO that you just cant say no :D


Swatches:
AGAIN THESE ARE ALL SWATCHED OVER MY NYX JUMBO MILK PENCIL




SHADES:

SUGAR SNACK: is a matte this color is very pretty i love it but it does gve some problems when applying the color i personally wouldn't say because this shade isn't a perfect 10 to avoid this palette because it does give a nice color pay off

HYPNOTIZING: FROST i love how complex this shade is so pretty it is like a taupe mixed with purple but with some pink to it so lovely and the application i have no complaints with

POWER BOOSTED: vELUXE PEARL this purple i do love it but i hate how it is giving me some problems with application maybe its just me because i have seen reviews prasing the application of this shade but its not so great for me sadly :(

Shop&Drop: Satin i love this color so much its just a pretty navy blue with blue reflex throughout it i don't have any issues with application of this color i actually think this is the best shade of this quad




if you love purples go for it this palette is very pretty and I can forgive the application duds in it


i say this palette is a 9.0 (^_^)

Mac Cook Collection Colour Added Eyeshadow Quad

So i finally got my hands on the new Mac Cook and Vera Collections i really only wanted the Eyeshadow Palettes but as for the vera collection i think i bought almost everything excluding some pearlglide eyeliners. so first i want to just take a look at the Palette Named Colour added this palette actually caught my eye in the promo pictures along with shop and drop.





the palette is so pretty i absolutely love the colors in pan and they all swatch pretty amazing considering how horrible the last mac eyeshadow Quads have been





Swatches:



I HAVE SWATCHED EACH COLOR WITH NYX JUMBO PENCIL IN MILK AS A BASE.

Colors:

Laundry Daze: is a satin this color is a creamy white with white shimmer throughout it i love how smooth this color feels an applies so nice

Colour Added: is a Veluxe Pearl this color in the pan looks more on the green side But when you apply it it is more on the yellow side this color also applies very nicely i would say it takes a little work to get a full color but not so much where it makes the color suffer.

Pre-Packaged: another Veluxe Pearl this is the star of this palette IMO i love this shade its an amazing dark teal shade and i think if this color wasn't in the palette i would have completely avoided the palette all together

Self Serve: is a satin this is the only color that you have t "work" with to get an amazing color pay off it is still very smooth and gorgeous though.



over all i say if these are your types of colors go for it this palette is so lovely and so many different looks can be created with it i wouldn't necessarily say you can create a "Natural" look with this palette but i am one for bold so i love this


i rate this a 9.5 love it get it (^_^)

Lancome Color Design Lilac Seduction

I Know my post are not from oldest to newest but i figure i would post my collection rather than whats the newest/oldest palettes

now this Palette was released i believe sometime before Christmas and comes in Limited Edition Packaging as well




SO Let me Just Say I ADORE PURPLE anything purple i have to have so this palette was def one of those and it did NOT Disappoint the colors are STUNNING!


Swatches

Dry no Base



With Base



And finally WET (SOOOOO STUNNING!!!)





Shade 1 All Over Lid to Brow: this color is like a Milky pink with Alot of Silver Glitter this one has certainly been different from the last Palettes i posted because the glitter it is a very pretty color and i would use this as a highlight for under the brow for sure it kind of has a matte finish except for the glitter throughout it

2 lid shade: ok i am IN LOVE!!!!!!!!!! this shade looks like a Jewel on the skin Especially Wet i love this color so much it def has some pink to it as well love it!

3 crease: this crease color reminds me a bit of the crease color in the violet sweetheart palette i think this one is a hint darker? it gave me the same application trouble as the violet sweetheart one again not too much to say pretty but meh

4 highlighter: this color i LOVE as well its like a taupe Purple color! so pretty for the inner corner maybe to touch in a bit as a transition color as well pigmented dry with a base and wet love it blends so easily too

5 Liner: this is another Big LOVE of mine its a rich deep purple but it has some blue to it which you would think it wouldnt work for this palette but actually its the color that brings it all together i would use this to make a smokey eye with this palette for sure! or even all over the lid and the lid color above it in the crease AHHH LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!! (*3*)


Ok so this palette is a 10!!!!!!!!!!!! all the way LOVE it WOrth it Get it :)

Lancome Color Design Vert Tendresse

Following up from the 1st Lancome Spring 2012 Palette i Posted this is the Second Limited Edition Vert Tendresse 5 in 1 eyeshadow Palette

Just like the First Palette it has the same limited Edition Design on the Front of the Palette



This palette I Adore its one of those palettes though you have to see in person to really Appreciate im not big on greens but this is such a stunning palette and it def falls into that Spring Pastels of 2012


now on to Swatches

Dry with no Base these colors don't have the Best Pay off but you can see each color is unique throughout this palette




With a base under there is a BIG Difference but sadly my camera was telling me no to getting a on point photo i am sorry about that (;A;)




And since i couldn't get a Perfect pic with the Base Photos to help my Description I Want to post the colors used Wet with the Dry and base so it can help me a explain a bit more




1 All Over Lid to Brow: this color is stunning! you can tell in the photos but for some reason the best way i can describe this color is like a Powder Green its so Complex and i think it would Be a Beautiful Transition color not used wet it would Be an okay Brow Highlight

2 Lid shade: this shade is also very pretty i think cool skin tones would really appreciate ths shade no complaints pigmentation is great

3 Crease Shade: i love this color i haven't been Big on the last 2 Crease shades but this one i love i would even use it all over the lid it has Silver Glitter in it that really Shines through When used Wet

4 Highlight: this color is a frosty white but the twist is it has green reflex in it which makes it more complex so your not just getting a regular Frosty white shade i think this is my number one color in this palette because it's so complex

5 Liner: another beaut this is a dark green with tons of glitter reflex in it and again using this wet the reflex does not budge sooo pretty as a liner but even using the color to create a smokey eye with this palette would be amazing


this palette i rate a 10 no issues here (^_~)/

Lancome Color Design Spring 2012 Rose Romance

This post is going to be all about the New Lancome Color Deign 5 in 1 eyeshadow Palette in Rose Romance this spring its all about Pastels and Lancome is Certainly Delivering that with the Two Palettes they Have Released.


The Packaging again for these Palettes Are Special it says "Les Yeux Doux' On each of them and these Palettes are Limited Edition so i would Suggest if you end up loving this post and you want the palettes to get your hands on them asap (^_^)




Pinks Pink Pinks this palette has all different Shades of pink and the funny thing is I Am NOT a Pink Person but when I saw this in the Store I Said I want it! LOL

Looking at these colors and even in the swatches i Believe both cool and warm skin can get a good use of this palette



Now on to the Swatches


Dry with No Base i Have to say I Am not the Biggest Fan i think the colors look way to Similar they are still pretty but i just think it has that cotton candy Vomit feel to it too much of the same IMO



Now With A Base
you can see more of a difference between colors i am loving the lid shade and liner shade in this palette and again a lot more vibrant




Now on to the colors themselves

1 the "all over lid to brow shade": unlike Violet Sweetheart i have to say i WOULD use this color as a brow highlight its a icy pink shade and it would also be pretty for a inner corner color

2 the "lid color": my 2nd favorite in the palette is like a tangerine pink shade i just love how this color looks no complaints about this one

3 the crease shade: ok so maybe because i tend to NOT be a fan of Pinks this color but i dont see it being Number 1 to a lot of people plus you ave to pack it on to get awesome color payoff i will say its Mmm Just Okay.

4 the highlighter: this shade looks similar to number 1 but it is Different. this is a lot more pink though in my Photos its coming out a bit Silvery for some reason and the First shade has more White to it. Very pretty for a highlight i do like it

5 Liner Color: this is my favorite of the Palette i'm not big on Brown eyeshadows but i love this color is very rich an smooth and has very small pink reflects not so much that its Very Obvious like in the Violet Sweetheart liner color but just enough that it makes the shade Complex and Different.

Now I Would Like to Show the Colors Used WET you can really see a difference in the Highlighting shaded the 1st being more icy and the 2nd being more pink also that crease color did Not really improve being used Wet
