MAC Naked Honey Exclusive Sneak Peek!
Honey Light High-Light Powder
Temptalia has an EXCLUSIVE sneak peek at MAC’s Naked Honey collection! 🙂
I hope you enjoy it! You can read collection information to catch up, in case you missed it!
To clarify: the high-light powder has an overspray of shimmer, but once removed, the product still has a little shimmer/sheen. It is not chalky like the high-light powders from Dame Edna at all. It’s smooth, pigmented, and subtly shimmery.
See the goods!

cute color beautiful
OMg these are so beautiful..right up my alley..squee with delight! Thanks for the sneak peek!
these are so sweet and soft. i like it!
The powder is so beautiful, I’d never want to use it. 🙂
which finish is Pollinator? this is the only upcomming collection that I’m excited about 🙂
That highlighter is a perfect colour for your skintone! 🙂 I LOVE IT, it looks so beautiful. Can’t wait to try it.
this looks like it might be a launch I wanna save for! 😀
how does the High-Light powder compare to the msf’s? Obviously less glittery chunks.. anything else?
The shimmer is nicer – I find MSFs do tend to accentuate pores, but I didn’t think this one did it quite so much.
what do you mean by shimmer layer removed?
For decorative purposes, some pressed powder products have an ‘overspray’ (top layer of shimmer or another colour) – the actual product is underneath the overspray layer.
some beauty powders and things have an initial layer of shimmer/gitter on top of the actual powder…christine showed you pictures/swatches of the BP before and after she wiped that layer off.
From the colour story:

Yes, you’re right, thank you! I keep getting the mixed up, because I think Pollinator should be yellow, LOL!
Thanks!
Dear Christine! May I post these pictures in a russian MAC-loving-freaks-community? The pictures are amazing and i surely tell them, where i got the pictures from!

Hi Julia,
Yes, you may, just make sure to send a link back. Thanks!
Thank You!
🙂 Thank you for the sneak preview.
I noticed this too Jay. The descriptions or something must’ve been swapped cause Pollinator is def. the light yellow gold.
Oh boy! Another gorgeous collection to look forward to! =) The eyeshadows look great, I think I’ll have to get those.
i’m so excited about this one. YES
Wow I didn’t think I even like the honey light high light powder when I saw it originally. So gorgeous!
These look really pretty. Thanks so much, Christine. Starting my list… 🙂
These look so nice! Yet another collection where I want everything!
So pretty, gold shimmery things always make me thing of warmer weather. Can’t wait for it to come out.
how cute!!!! I like it!
Wow! Pollinator looks beautiful. I really want this one!
Absolutely gorgeous. Makes me want summer more than ever
Pollinator looks so much like Paradisco but maybe with more gold. Do they look similar in person?
It’s similar. It reminds me of Dear Cupcake, too. It might be a little less pink (and therefore even more similar to Paradisco than Dear Cupcake).
Pollinator reminds me of Dear Cupcake. How do they compare with each other in person? Creme de Miel looks wonderful… so does the high-light powder 🙂
I love everything. I also love the names – I see a major haul in the near future!
I love the Creme de Mel (I cant resist golds)…but Polllinator is nothing special.
Awwww that stinks that it’s only an overlay of shimmer 🙁 I wanted the whole compact to look like that….ah well. What do you think Christine? Do you like it without the shimmer overlay?
It’s still very pretty underneath, though. It is NOTHING, I repeat, NOTHING!!!, like Dame Edna powders.
I like it better without the shimmer overlay, because it was just KAPOW! too much shimmer for me.
Holy shizzle! I’m buying EVERYTHING! x
i love the look of Pollinator. Thanks for the early swatches Christine
ohh man this is pretty! I love pollinator!!1 What a pretty color! I was wondering how do you always get the new stuff before they come out?!?! I MUST KNOW! lol what does overspray mean? o_O
The swatches are awesome!!! Pollinator and Creme de Miel look tempting to get!
I am pretty psyched for this collwection, actually! I love the colours right up my alley… and honey is so delicious!
I want I want I want!
This collection looks devine, I want all of it!
i’m so gonna get that highlight powder
I love the name Pollinator!!
Creme de Miel is gorgeous! I like Honey Light, too, but I feel like I’d be bored with it once the overlay is gone.
I wish MAC would stop it with the overspray stuff..it’s such a let down..it’s almost like they are trying to fool us..however i am glad that it still has shimmer throughout the powder after the overspray is gone unlike the hullaballoo powder
Creme de Miel looks a lot like Soft Force from Style Warriors…I wonder how similar they’ll actually be
love Honey Light tho 🙂
i agree. Can you tell us Cristhine if they realy are similar? xoxo
ups!… Christine sorry lol
Oh dear….
Drool. I want a highlight powder, its like a light bronze for the summer, I’m getting way too excited for this collection to come out!
Thanks for the sneak peak, Christine! What are the finish on these eyeshadows? And how is the texture? I’m going to be so sad if Creme de Miel is a lustre with glitter fallout!
To be honest, I don’t know the finishes yet 🙁
the powder looks so cute!! man i have to start allocating a small portion of my savings specifically for MAC!
MAC is making me start to hate life, I can’t keep up with these collections anymore. =(
If I had any sort of a tan I would love these. 🙂
Wow…I think I really am going to love this collection!
wow that highlighter colours looks gooooorgeous!
Is Cr
Rose Blanc!
OOH! those look awesome, thanks for posting this!!!!
Creme de Miel looks like a nice replacement for my beloved Rose Blanc that I just hit pan on.
The highlight powder is pretty!
Creme de Miel definitely reminded me a lot of Rose Blanc, perhaps a little yellower.
ooo thank you for posting these!! I can’t wait for this collection!!!! 🙂
oOOOo i’m really liking what i see so far
the highlight powder is sooo cute!!!
omg. i was looking to replace my highlight…i think i found it.
I’m loving all the collections coming out recently and this seems like one of the best. Its still so far away though!
noooooooooooooooooooooo my money!!
Honestly, none of this looks special to me. I was excited initially but now… not really. :\
is Creme de Miel a dupe of rose blanc? will this highlighter look okay for an nc35 (I’m always unsure about highlighters and bronzers for my skintone)? I can’t wait for your summer looks once naked honey and style warrior is out!
It seems very similar. I think it would be OK, but it might be a little yellow!
Ohh it looks great!
Hi christine
I love your site the sneakpreaiews but the best are the reviews…you really help me making my decision what to buy….I think mac wouldn
Aww, thanks, Alexa 😀 It means a lot to have you say that!
wow! stunning shimmers!
How does Pollinator compare to Paradisco and Expensive Pink? On my computer screen they seem to be quite similar.
I so cannot wait for this collection. Everything looks YUMMEH.
It’s similar to Paradisco, but not Expensive pink!
OMG I can’t wait for this to come out!!! Thank you!!
its pretty!!! everytym i see a gold swatch of anything, i want it…no matter even if they look same….i love gold colors!!!!
OMG. This collection looks sooo cute!
hmm, i like the highlight powder, but it seems really gold/yellow.
It is pretty gold/deep gold!
Hey Christine, Can you swatch Creme de Miel next to dazzlelight? They look very dupable.
Thanks xoxo
I don’t think I own Dazzlelight, actually! It’s not like it, though, just because it has a lot more yellow/gold in it. I’d say it’s very much like Rose Blanc. Kind of like Nylon + Goldmine.
I’m so excited for this collection!
Woah! That highlight powder is gorgeous!
I’m starting to save now for this!! Has my interest much more than the last 2 collections (rose romance or style warrior).
🙂 Enjoy your haul when you make it!
i am confused about the shimmer overlay on the highlight powders. what is the overlay…i don’t get it ;-(
It’s a spray of metallic shimmer, and then underneath that layer is a different product.
