MAC Fashion Flower Collection: Coming Soon!
MAC Fashion Flower Collection – Coming Soon!
Stay tuned for full photos, swatches, and reviews for six eyeshadows, two lipsticks, two beauty powders, and one lipgelee! 🙂  I was up late last night photographing and swatching before crashing (1AM), and now I’m up early to roll out the reviews!  Will definitely have to grab some Starbucks ASAP, haha!
Initial thoughts:
- Alpha Girl applies more pigmented than it swatches but still looks subtle
- What’s up with all of the super glittery lipgelees? Â Love me some glitter but the past six or so have all been glitter bonanzas!
- Flower design is cute – kind of dig the imprint over special packaging, personally!
- Aqua and Free to Be seem less pigmented than my pan variations
- Bows & Curtseys looks way better on than swatched
- Summer Shower is pretty much colorless with lots of aqua, teal, etc. shimmer/glitter
P.S. — I do also have some products from Flighty and the new Magically Cool Liquid Powder as well.  I’m still waiting for the official description of the Big Bounce Shadows, because I can’t review them properly without knowing what exactly they’re supposed to do.  Stay tuned!
I like the looks of Groundcover…so far that’s the only thing I like!
I think I’ll give this collection a miss – unless the swatches tell me different! Lol 🙂
Yayyyyy!!!!
Wow Christine! You are so dedicated! I don’t know how you manage to do it all, but thank you!
I can’t wait! What would I do without your reviews, they’re the best! Thanks!
what exactly is the difference between blush and beautypowder?
It really just matters how you want to use it.
Hi Christine, one question for you. First off thanks for all you do, I realize with the overflow of MAC seemingly releasing a new collection every month it (at least to me) can all be so just a bit to much. Onto my question…how far in advance do you know about a collections release? It seems to me that the Fashion Flower Collection is the second collection for the summer. Didn’t it used to be that MAC only had one collection per season? I don’t know, just seems like a bombardment of “stuff” and to much to keep up with! Maybe it’s just me. Thanks again.
MAC has been putting out 30-50 collections per year for at least 5+ years!
I had the opportunity to swatch Tuesday my local Macy’s. The lip gelees are awesome! The blue lipstick is amazing and so is Mlle. Want crazy about the other beauty powder (not alpha girl). I found it to be very chalky. Just my opinions 🙂
Christine, you are so dedicated to helping all of us make educated beauty decisions! Thank you so much!
On the ball as always Christine! Well done and thank you. Really looking forward to your reviews
Oooh! Great picture. Thanks for your first thoughts!
If you need Starbucks, Christine, just head on over and take your travel mug to get free coffee today! 😉
Also, looking forward to your reviews! 😀
Christine, as always. You ROCK!!! Can’t wait to see your swatches & read your reviews & recommendations. Have a great weekend.
wow those eyeshadows look so cool! I look forward to seeing swatches and your review of the upcoming collections!
I really only like the beauty powders..
The lipsticks aren’t for me, and the eyeshadows seem dupeable 😛
I <3 the flowers!
