MAC Wonder Woman

Hello lovelies!

I am so excited for the MAC Wonder Woman collaboration!

I know a lot of people are not really liking this collection but i am super excited about it :)

Here are my picks that I will be (hopefully!) purchasing when it arrives in the UK (March 2011):

Its worth noting that most products in this collection are super sized, compared to the regular versions, which may mean they are slightly more expensive than the regular version of the product, where applicable - to me it is worth it, although something to think about if you're on a budget:

Blue Make Up bag - this has a cute blue and white star print inside!

Also available in red

'Amazon Princess' Blush Duo - this a lovely magenta pink on one side (the larger side) and a berry shade with gold shimmer on the other!

Lipstick in 'Russian Red' - I know this is a permanent but I sort of collect the MAC collaboration lipsticks, so will be trying to get this one :)

(The other shade pictured is 'Spitfire', if you're interested)

Also, I may get this - I love the colours but the reviews have been mediocre, so will see:

Eyeshadow Quad in 'Lady Justice' - I may buy this purely for the name ha ha

What are your thoughts on this upcoming collection?

Will you be purchasing anything?

Sleek Molten Metal

Hi guys!

What do you think of this new release from Sleek?

Molten Metal Duo

Sleek say:

"Molten Metal is a highly pigmented metallic cream eyeshadow duo.

The palette consists of 2 gloriously rich and highly pigmented metallic creams that ignite the skin with intensity. The formulation is soft and fluid-like allowing easy application."

This looks very similar to the Illamasqua Liquid Metals, although for £6.99 for this little duo, they are a lot more purse friendly.

Its available here. 

I will be picking up the Molten Metals - what do you guys think?

Hello, 

Sorry for the lack of posts - have been so busy with work!

Today, I have some pics of my 'daily' make up bag (I have separate stuff for evening, going out, etc), as I always like a nosey post like this, so hopefully you will too!

Left to Right - FCUK palette, Sleek 'Circus Palette' and Sleek 'Acid' Palette

Inside the FCUK palette - not my usual colours, as I got this as a gift although have tried some colours out and they are quite pigmented

Inside the Sleek Circus Palette - these are super pigmented and last well when used with a primer (I use Urban Decay Primer potion with these and they last all day)

Inside the Sleek Acid Palette - look how well used the white shade is lol

MAC Neon Orange

MAC Viva Glam Lady Gaga - this is a bright, bubblegum pink on me, although seems to look different every time on every person I have seen

Illamasqua

Hello!

Lots of posts today, as I am feeling super motivated!

I came across Illamasqua about 6 months ago and, being a hardcore MAC fan, who is sometimes disappointed by their selection of more garish or bright colours, I loved this brand straight away.

I am particularly excited about their 2010 Autumn/Winter Collection named 'Art of Darkness'.

I love the asthetics behind this and feel that it has a slightly absinthe drinking, steampunk-esque Victorian vibe.

They have already released a sneak preview in the form of their new 'Precision Ink' eyeliner.

This currently comes in 2 shades - 'Alchemy', which is a highly pigmented gold and 'Abyss', which is classic black.

'Alchemy' is my favourite, so this will definitely be purchased by me and I will look forward to creating some new looks with it - I think it would look fab against a purple or royal blue eyeshadow <3

What are your thoughts on the new collection and what is your favourite Illamasqua product?
