MAC Glamour Daze Swatches

MAC Glamour Daze Swatches

MAC Glamour Daze is the color collection MAC released for Holiday 2012. This doesn’t include palettes or gift sets merely makeup single makeup pieces.

Going from the promo model and the colors in the collection I get a very Nancy Sinatra/Lana del Ray feel. It’s a lot of nude and mod shades of pink and peach with some vampy shades mixed in the background. It’s honestly not very Holiday for me in the least. Some of the pieces I did try from the collection are quite nice.

However, I always associate sparkle and red lipstick with the Holidays or a killer smoky eye…Glamour Daze isn’t exactly a palette of shades I’d choose for my Holiday look but that isn’t to say it won’t be a raging success who knows?

MAC All for the Glamour Face Kit Gorgeous Bronze Review & Swatches

MAC All for the Glamour Face Kit Holiday 2012

MAC All for the Glamour Face Kit in Gorgeous Bronze is a limited edition face, eye, and lip palette MAC has launched for Holiday 2012.

I’ve mentioned it in a few of my reviews already but I’m very pleased with the packaging on Holiday 2012. These are a hard plastic shell with a firm plush pin cushion design on top. The compacts kinda have a vintage feel (the plastic might take away from that some though) and are very girlish and pretty.

Take a look!

MAC Fabulousness Neutral Eyes Palette Review & Swatches

MAC Fabulousness Neutral Eyes Palette

MAC Fabulousness is MAC’s Holiday 2012 Collection featuring three eyeshadow palettes. These very stylish palettes are utterly fresh and unique for the brand due to their vintage packaging.

I feel like MAC Holiday has become less and less memorable due to the packaging so it was a very nice surprise to see they revamped the entire design. The palettes have a plush pin cushion design with a plastic ribbon clasp to open them. It feels very sixties mod to me and as I mentioned before something you’d see Dita Von Tease or Lana Del Ray whipping out of their purses.

Let’s take a look!
