A quick summary of the products in order of how much I like them so far:

Mineralize Blush in Love Thing
A gorgeous shimmery deep plum pink. Very pigmented.

Mineralize Skinfinish in Gold Deposit
Beautiful shimmery bronzey gold, again very pigmented.

Satin Lipstick in Myth
Very creamy pinky nude. Well pigmented.

Dazzleglass Creme in Passing Fancy
Sparkly frosted Barbie pink. Very sheer but buildable. Nice over the Myth lipstick.

So there you go! Please leave a comment if you have any of these products and let me know what you think. Or if you have any recommendations to further expand my new MAC collection.

Thanks for reading!

Purple and Pink Glittery Eye and Nude Lip











Hey!

This is a pink, purple and glittery eye look I created with my Elf 32 eyeshadow palette (in the close up picture above of the shadows, the colours I used were all the bottom four and the third one in from the left on the row above). The glitter is Barry M Fine Glitter Dust No4.

My lips are Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in Nude Delight No 700 and a lipgloss I got from Primark called Opia Plumping Lip Gloss.

Hope you like it!
