Quite Cute by MAC
So, MAC launches a new collection on April 7th called "Quite Cute".
Now lately, I've been into edgier stuff on the rock 'n' roll side when it comes to style & makeup, but when I saw this collection, I died! The colors are gorgeous, and if I had the money, I'd probably buy it all!
The collection contains 5 lipsticks (including Saint Germain, which I believe is actually permanent), 4 plush glasses, I believe they're lip plumpers, an eyeshadow quad, 3 lip pencils, 3 mineralize blushes, 3 nail lacquers, a pair of false lashes, an eyeliner and a mascara.
To start off with the lipsticks: I absolutely /love/ and adore every single one of them. Taking them from left to right, Playing Koi is kind of a weird color to me, but I am very tolerant when it comes to nude-ish colors. Quite Cute is a lavender, need I say more? I love lilac and lavender colors, so this is gorgeous to me! It kind of reminds me of D'Lilac by Lime Crime. Anyone? xD No, but the only bad thing is that it's a creme sheen, and that's way too light and creamy for me. I'm more into mattes and amplifieds. Which brings me to the next to lipsticks: Saint Germain and Candy Yum Yum. Saint Germain is amplified. It's also permanent in-store, which is a good thing. It reminds me of Great Pink Planet by Lime Crime or Viva Glam Gaga I (also by MAC). And Candy Yum Yum? I MUST HAVE IT. It's so bright and pink and fun! And matte! Also, it reminds me of Lime Crime's Countessa Fluorescent. And then there's Playtime, which is an intense purple. Also cremesheen. I already own two violets, Violetta (Venomous Villains) and Style Curve (some collection I don't remember), and cremesheen is, as I said, a no-go for me.
The plush glasses seem very sheer to me, also, I hate lip gloss/glass. xD Not going into it, sorry. But as far as I know, they plump your lips, so if you're looking for a lip plumper, check it out!
The eyeshadow quad is really cute, too. It's called Cutie and it contains Moshi! Moshi!, Goody Good Gum Drop, Boycrazy and Azuki Bean. They're all limited this time. I like Boycrazy, the lavender color, but since I just got Beautiful Iris, I don't really need it. But even though the colors might seem strange, go for it! It adds an adorable twist to an everyday look!
I have absolutely no information about the lip pencils, I'm sorry.
The blushes are /adorable/. Now, I don't wear a lot of blush, so I can't really judge, but look at the little hearts!! They seem like very nice blush colors and even though I wouldn't really wear them, I'm definitely gonna change them out, cause I absolutely wouldn't mind adding one of them to my collection!
When I first saw the nail lacquers, I was like 'meh'. But! Now that I've looked closer, I absolutely love them! The lavender one is called Little Girl Type and as I said, lavender colors are gorgeous to me, so of course I love this!! The Ice Cream Cake is a very pretty pink with blue undertones to it, which is always a plus. And the Mischievous is so weird and strange that I absolutely love it! It's such an underrated color, when in fact it looks amazing.
I'm not going to talk about the lashes, mascara and liner, but if you want to know more about them or just about the collection in general, definitely go to http://www.temptalia.com/ and check it out. That's my all time favorite make up blog!
So I hope you enjoyed, stay tuned!
