Best & Worst of MAC Electric Wonder Collection
Here’s a brief summary of how the products from the new MAC Electric Wonder Collection reviewed! It’s a typical release from the brand with hits and misses, and as it features more neutral hues, it may be very redundant for some. The item I enjoyed the most was the Ignite Wonder palette, which had a creamier, smoother feel than most of MAC’s powder blushes. Rock Starz is also a pretty gloss if you enjoy MAC’s formula (I do!).

Did I get anything? Did I ever! Even though I hadn’t planned on getting more than 1 lipstick, a Lipglass and Into Eternity Iridescent powder, it went well over.
So, here goes:
1.) Into Eternity Iridescent powder
2.) Life In Sepia lipstick
3.) Rock Starz Lipglass
4.) Natural Born Leader lipstick
5.) Natural Vice e/s palette
And still have these 2 items on my WL:
6.) Marble Faun Lipglass
7.) Ignite Wonder face Palette
Whew! You did indulge in this one!
Good on you Nancy! I think this collection will really suit you.
I thought this a lovely collection and far more subtle than what we have seen recently. I like the fact that there is not a orange or red eyeshadow in sight, just soft mellow shades. Very pretty too.
It’s a very refreshing collection in that sense, isn’t it?
I got the Desert Lightning Palette, and Lipglass in Make Me Mercurial and Rock Starz. I was tempted by Natural Born Leader and Life in Sepia Lipsticks, but I decided my CP Dr. Facilier and UD Bun Bun were close enough.
I successfully avoided buying Desert Lightning, which is really nice and extremely tempting, but I truly don’t need it. (It’s still available at Macy’s, where I have a $10 gift card, so I’m not out of the woods yet.)
I like that a lipstick called Natural Born Leader is in the #1 spot. ?
I only picked up 3 things from the collection although I kept eyeing the Desert Lightening Palette. The 3 things I did pick up were Natural Born Leader, a me shade if ever there was one! I also got the Lip Glass in Make Me Mercurial and the Into Eternity Iridescent Powder. I haven’t used the powder yet but have worn the lippie and the lip glass and I love them both.
I picked up:
Natural Born Leader, Life in Sepia and Feelin’ Sedimental lipsticks
Natural Vice and Desert Lightning eye shadow palettes
I passed on the cheek powders and glosses. I am happy with my purchases!
Yep. I did. I purchased this Natural Born Leader lipstick, which is really pretty, although it does remind me an awful lot of the Rajah lipstick from the recently released Aladdin collection. Natural Born Leader does pull a bit more red, while Rajah a little bit more plum. But, they are practically twins. Still keeping both of them, though. I am a sucker for pretty MAC LE packaging.
I got the face palette! Looove the packaging of this collection
