MAC Dita Von Teese Lipstick.

If there was ever a perfect red lipstick AND a perfect person to launch one, this is it! MAC has teamed up with the one and only Dita Von Teese to launch a GORGEOUS vivid tomato red lipstick in MAC Dita Von Teese.

This lipstick is inspired by Dita's new book Your Beauty Mark and it is also Dita's signature shade. It is said to bring out your "seductive spirit".

This matte red shade is beautiful. It is a true bright red - I think the tomato describes it best. It is highly pigmented and lasts a good five to six hours before fading. Dita is obviously wearing a gloss over it in the photo and I would guess a dark liner.

I love the limited edition tube and printed box.

MAC Dita Von Teese will be available beginning December 9th at all MAC locations such as Macy's and Nordstrom and maccosmetics.com for $18.00.

Holiday 2015: MAC Enchanted Eve Warm Eyeshadow X 6.

For holiday this year, MAC has an Enchanted Eve gifting collection. Part of the collection are an array of compacts for eyes, lips and face. Knowing me and how much of a neutral girl I am, it should be no surprise that I would be drawn to the Enchanted Eve Warm Eyeshadow X 6 compact.

This eyeshadow compact is filled with six (obviously) shadows in neutral shades from the really light to smokey brown that will easily do an every day that can be smoked up for evening.

The shades include:

Seasonal Spirit - warm yellow-tan (veluxe pearl)
Moodmaker - rich oak-brown (frost)
Sax Appeal - soft taupe-brown (satin)
Bewitchin’ - warm chestnut-brown (vel vet)
Charcoal Brown - muted taupe-brown (matte)
Retrospeck - beached blonde (lustre)

The compact even includes a mini double ended blending brush/small angle brush.

The shades are overall pretty well pigmented and do last all day, but I found them not to be totally up to regular MAC shadow standards when it comes to blending. MAC shadows are normally one of my favorite shadows so I don't know why MAC isn't giving us regular quality here. I still wouldn't hesitate on gifting this or even picking it up for yourself as it is filled with great shadow colors and with a little work, they do blend, just not as easily as with a normal MAC shadow.

Buy the Enchanted Eve Warm Eyeshadow X 6 for $39.50 at all MAC locations in Macy's, Nordstrom, MAC stores and online at maccosmetics.com.

Holiday 2015: MAC Magic of the Night Color Collection.

If you like bold smoky looks with lips to match — think elegant, nighttime looks — then this years MAC Holiday color collection is definitely one to check out. As its name, Magic of the Night suggests, this one is definitely for the evening or those who are not shy with their makeup.

"Get ready for an enchanted evening that won’t stop until dawn. Play it cool this holiday with eyes done up in deep smoky hues, and lips in tones that boldly lead the way for a night of unexpected thrills.

Jazz it up with new Colourdrenched Pigment, whose highly pearlized creamy hues glisten against skin. Lips let loose and live a little, playing nocturnal notes of dusky lilac, ruby rouge and luxe blackened plum. Out on the town, velvet-hued eyes swing to an elegant vibe as ebonized blue and navy join classic noir for a look that’s smoking haute. Nails set the mood in metallic, and Mineralize Skinfinish lights the way with its signature shimmering glow.

The magic is in the night, darlings. Let’s have some fun."
