MAC Cosmetics Naked Honey Collection
Bees do it… now MAC does it! Honey that is! As ancient and exotic as Kohl, great beauties have long revered the natural restorative powers of the Golden Elixir.
Following the example of their fabled Queen, Cleopatra, Egyptians bathed in honey and milk. Queen Anne of England used it to silken her hair; from the Ancient Greeks to the Roman Empire, honey has never lost its regal, ever-amber lustre. We love the luxury of its sensual essence…but we also know that it’s a highly efficient and wholesome humectant and healer. Introducing our limited edition Naked Honey collection – three aspects of golden warmth and sun-made sweetness for the body, layered with two decidedly different honeycomb-derived fragrances – celebrating the secret lives of Queen Bees. Complementary shades of High-Light Powder, Eye Shadow and Lipglass are all the buzz for summer.
Lipglass ($14.00 U.S. / $16.50 CDN)
- She’s a Star Light neutral gold
- Queen Bee Mid-tone apricot with multi-dimensional pearl
- Buzz Dark copper brown with multi-dimensional pearl
Eyeshadow ($14.50 U.S. / $17.00 CDN)
- Crème de Miel Frosty light yellow gold
- Pollinator Mid-tone warm reddened peach with pearl
- Buckwheat Dark copper brown with multi-dimensional pearl
High-Light Powder ($24.50 U.S. / $29.50 CDN)
A high-light powder specially created for the Naked Honey collection. It features an embossed honeycomb pattern — super-fine, impeccably pearlized. It creates soft high lights on cheek, brow, shoulders — anywhere on the body.
- Honey Light A light peachy gold with shimmer
- Golden Nectar Muted golden tan with gold shimmer
Naked Honey Skin Salve ($18.50 U.S. / $22.50 CDN)
Formulated from honey, organic beeswax, sunflower oil, and other natural ingredients, this rich honey-scented and flavoured salve instantly moisturizers and helps recondition dry skin. Multi-purpose. Use everywhere.
Naked Honey Hand and Body Cream ($22.50 U.S. / $27.00 CDN)
A sensuous cream made form bio-converted honey, shea butter, and vitamins C and E derivatives. Absorbs quickly for skin-softening moisture. Conditions, nourishes, protects. Use on all areas where ultra-moisture is called for.
Naked Honey Body Wash ($19.50 U.S. / $23.50 CDN)
Formulated from bio-converted honey, this body wash cleanses the skin while providing the soothing and moisturizing benefits of lavender, narcissus, jasmine flower, and blue agave extracts. Provides a sensual, calming, cleansing experience.
Creations: Naked Honey ($22.50 U.S. / $28.50 CDN)
An aromatic journey that traces honey’s fragrant heart back to summer’s sweetest blooms. Energy starts to buzz, spirits soar, light floral and woodsy notes float toward an electric finale. Sweet and sexy all the way.
Creations: Africanimal ($22.50 U.S. / $28.50 CDN)
A scent that starts with a honey-ness that’s seductive and given its dash of pepper, not without spice. Add a dark kiss of bergamot and wood, an aromatic orgy breaks out to create a scent that’s all honey but far from sweet.
Available: June 11th, 2009 in North America. July 2009 international.

Wow! Now I have the incentive to hold back from Style Warrior and wait for Naked Honey instead.

I would not hold back from Style Warriors. It is such a pretty collection and the packaging is very nice. I already picked up a few things and going back for more lipglass!!

I love the highlighting powder and the peach lipglass. Will check it out eventually. :)

Monday, May 18, 2009
The Naked Honey perfume will be the only thing I’m gonna get…
Miss Trendy
Monday, May 18, 2009
the perfume sound exciting i’d have to smell it… but i fear falling in love with a limited edition fragrance because once the bottle (which at MAC is not very generous) is gone its GONE :(

but that makes it all the sweeter *excuse the pun* :P haha but yea i know what you mean….

Thank you for reminding me why I’m skipping Style Warrior. :)
Alannah
Monday, May 18, 2009
This collection is so wrong for me–anything that smells like honey completely skeeves me out. The glosses and shadows don’t excite me much but they’re pretty neutrals, I guess. I’m glad, this looks like one I can skip!
sej
Monday, May 18, 2009
The only thing tempting me here are the highlight powders. It’s a good things since I thought I wouldn’t like anything from Style Warrior…but I ended up liking a TON!! Hopefully the same doesn’t happen with this collection.
Catherine
Monday, May 18, 2009
Wow, wayyyy more excited for Naked Honey than Style Warriors. I may actually get my first MAC lipglass. The apricot-y one in the middle is so pretty and so are the highlighting powders! Also, pretty excited to try out that honey salve. :D :D :D
Tanya
Monday, May 18, 2009
I am super duper excited about this collection but not so much for the make-up…I LOVE LOVE LOVE the scent of honey and cant wait to check out the perfumes and body products :) Yippeeeee!!!

I need all of these. It will be hard to hold back for sure!

Liking the peachy lipglass (in the middle) and the powders. That’s it, though. I am still liking Style Warriors more! I am glad that both are more my coloring, though. :)

Monday, May 18, 2009
I think I’m going to like this collection :)

This looks awesome! Love the neutrals.
Miss Trendy
Monday, May 18, 2009
the highlight powders are tempting… wonder how they will compare to MSF. Christine do you know the size of the salve? They are usually in tiny tins (sort of like tiger balm and lush’s perfumes)… is this the same concept?

Monday, May 18, 2009
I want the lipglasses
Brie
Monday, May 18, 2009
I wonder how close Pollinator is to the peach color in the Rose Romance quad? They look like they’d be similar.
I HAVE to get the Africanimals perfume – that’s the only thing that is really calling to me, thank GOODNESS (after Rose Romance, I don’t need another entire collection to fall in love with).
Yulia
Monday, May 18, 2009
i think i’ll only be getting the salve from this one
Aj
Monday, May 18, 2009
I’m surprised how excited I am about this; I think I want one of the highlights and all the shadows!
Stacey
Monday, May 18, 2009
Can’t wait for the skin salve :D
Filipa
Monday, May 18, 2009
I’m so excited about this one, more than for style warriors! i want the 3 e/s, the two lighter l/g, the highlighter and the salve for shore ;)i’m going to be one poor honey ;)
heather
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
I like the lipglasses, and the perfume and maybe the body wash sounds good too but that’s about it.
ChristineDior
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
hrmmm this collection looks alright, the only thing I’m up to checking out in person is the highlight powders and possibly the perfumes ;)

I’m going to be all over the lipglasses like a bee over honey ha ha ha sorry that is a bad joke right?

To me, it seems wasteful to use honey on cosmetics when there’s been a honeybee crisis in N. America the last few years.

I was going to get some of the gold colors from Style Warrior, but now I think I’ll wait for this collection!

Boring….
Just want pics from the colour craft collection
MAC Collections this year have been So Bad, i can’t believe it
there’s nothin’ interesting in this collection
Sara
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
Naked Honey Skin Salve seems interesting, and so does the High-Light Powder in Honey Light. But apart from that, everything else is crap…
Aubree
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
;_; Now I need to rule out what i will be buying from style warriors in order to save for this!
Brigitte
Tuesday, May 19, 2009
Definitely getting all the eyeshadows and all the lipglasses. :D I’m really loving honey products right now (Honey I Washed The Kids, heeey) … but! I don’t think I want the perfume.
Julia(Bazardefille)

19.50 for a 3.4Fl oz body wash….?
Too expensive… for me of course.Because I kinow here in France, they will be sold as 25$ certainly! :(

Is Buckwheat similar to any other mac shadows? I think I may need it…
Christine
Thursday, May 28, 2009
I haven’t seen it yet, but it might be similar to Bronze/Mulch from the description.

Damn u mac I’m going to be broke even before i get a job.

This is a cute collection but nothing really appeals to me. I still want to grab a lipstick and maybe a lip gloss from the Style Warrior Collection and I plan on getting stuff from the Euristocrats II, the Color Craft and maybe the Baby Bloom collection.My wallet is only happy as of now. haha
Jessica
Thursday, May 21, 2009
I asked a MUA about the perfumes yesterday – she had a chance to smell them recently… she says they smell terrible. I’m sad, but my wallet is relieved :)
She said the skin salve is awesome though & smells great.

Not until it comes out, though we have some sneak peek swatches out :)

Here’s to hoping the Queen Bee Lipglass is a good dupe for YSL Pure Coral #3. Does anyone know?.
If only the lip glosses had some of that adorable packaging — I wouldn’t be able to control myself if the lid had a ring of honeycomb around it!.

I think the collection is nice, but I am only really tempted by the highlighting powder.

Those are three of the most beautiful lipglasses EVER. I know they won’t look the same because the promos never do, but still. :P

Monday, May 25, 2009
hhhhmmmm i thought i was going to get the whole collection but mmmm no, i really observed and i think i might just get the compact high lighters, the pollinator and creme de miel eye shadow and the hand salve, fair enough!!!

Has anyone purchased one of these products and really really liked it (so much that you would recommend it)? I like the whole theme and concept of the honey and it is appealing, but I don’t know if anything in this collection is particularly worth it….

This collection was on the website today!! I called my local MAC counter at Macy’s and they said they would not have them in store until Thirsday next week. I am gonna try the MAC store tomorrow and see if they have them yet. I love the eyeshadows! I will let everyone know tomorrow if I can find them what I think!!

I was so dissapointed with this collection!! not good for my skin complexion..colors were hard to work with
