MAC HOLIDAY COLLECTION 2015

Who doesn’t love MAC! And their special holiday gift sets are always incredible. This year, MAC has a holiday collection called Enchanted Eve, which includes countless products including this Eye bag, which is also available in several colour combinations, including this one in Neutral.

 
 
Enchanted Eve Eye Bag in Neutral
 
 
The kit includes;
 
Painterly Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Nude Beige
  • False Lashes False Mascara in Black
  • Dip Down Fluidline in Deep Dark Flat Brown
  • Double ended fluff brush/eye liner brush
  • Cosmetic bag
 
Often gift sets contain products in shades that you’d never use, but because this kit consists of neutral shades, every single one will be on high rotation in my collection.
  
This is the first time I’ve ever used a MAC mascara, but it really does make the lashes appear very long and spidery, almost as if you’re wearing false lashes, hence the very appropriate name ‘False Lashes Mascara’.
  
I’m always using a liquid eye liner but usually in a pen format, so I’m not used to a pot and brush, so that taken a bit of getting used to, but I’m slowly getting there, and the included brush that has a eyeliner brush in one end and eye shadow brush in the other, certainly make it a lot easier, even for novices like me.
  
The Painterly Pro Longwear Pain Pot in the shade nude beige is such a great base shade for the eye line, and I love how easy it glides on, and stays put all day without sliding or settling into creases. I don’t recall ever using up an eye shadow, but this shade is one of those great core shades that I’ll be looking for a new one very soon.
 
Finally the products come packaged in a cute black cosmetic clutch that is perfect for popping into the handbag.
  
A great selection of product retailing for use RRP $89, and available from MAC counters.
 
 
Magic of the Night Holiday Collection
  
In addition to the sets, MAC has also released a number of individual products from a collection called Magic of the Night Holiday Collection. This collection includes among others a selection of Colourdrenched Pigments for eyes, in shades such as Night Thrill (gold shimmer), Ascent of Glamour (cobalt violet blue), Tonight’s the Night (deep blackened teal), Moon is Blue (royal blue) and No Taboos (blackened blue). These shades are extremely pigmented, so you can achieve that intense look perfect for night time, or you can of course blend them for a more subtle look for daytime wear as well. RRP: $42.
 
 
  
Colourdrenched Pigment in Ascent of Glamour and
Retro Matte Lipstick in All Fired Up
 
 
The Magic of the Night Holiday Collection also includes a range of lipsticks, including Please Me (matte muted rosy tinted pink), All Fired Up (retro matte bright fuchsia), Evening Rendezvous (matte deep reddish purple) and Dark Side (amplified deep burgundy), which retails for RRP: $40 each.
  
I’ve been using the All Fired Up, which is such a gorgeous shade, perfect for a night up, or brightening up your face when you’re a little tired, or simply putting a little oomph to an otherwise simple makeup look.
