The MAC shiny quite things holiday 2018 makeup collection
Pics, arm swatches as well as lip swatches of MAC shiny quite Things…as well as commentary/thoughts from the point of view of a 40-something-year-old lady who likes MAC as well as makeup. ? Please note, this is just the makeup collection, not the gift sets or kits. The whole collection is LE as well as offered now at MAC counters as well as online. If you’d like to see the makeup in action, inspect out this post, this publish as well as this post. For reference, I’m an NC42.

If you like shimmer, shine, frost, pearl and/or glitter, as well as you’re great with the truth that it’s already the holidays for makeup companies, this MAC holiday collection is both shiny as well as pretty. It radiaties megawatts of luminescence. Of the 21 pieces, all which are bedecked/bedazzled in restricted edition shiny silver packaging, only one has absolutely no radiate to it — a hot pink matte lipstick called Both Cheeks ($19.50), which is gorgeous, by the way. It’s like a matte version of show Orchid.

I mean you might likewise think about creamy beige-pink Babetown Lipstick ($19.50) as something other than shiny, since it isn’t as shiny as the other products in the release, however it is technically a Cremesheen, so it’s still kinda shiny… It’s likewise the thing I’ve been using a lot of from this entire collection.

I know, SHOCKING. Karen’s preferred thing is the neutral lipstick?!

That’s sarcasm in print, by the way. ?

Note: Babetown isn’t one of those corpse-y pink beige colors. It’s light (but not pastel), as well as I believe it’s charming layered on top of the MAC Soar, edge to Edge, Spice, Boldly Bare — the normal MAC liner suspects. It’s smooth, opaque as well as doesn’t latch onto lip flakes, either.

But yeah, you much better be into shine if you’re gonna go huge with this collection, since there’s SO much GLITTER. all of the shiny quite shadows ($21.50 each) are glittery (allegedly they’re a new formula, however I believe they may be re-branded pressed Pigments), the Dazzleliner liquid liners ($22 each) are glittery, as well as the additional dimension Skinfinish in Snowflushed ($35) is HELLA glittery — like, somebody might illuminate a disco celebration utilizing the reflection off your face.

I occur to like shine in controlled/small doses, as well as I’m extremely specific about the particulars of the shine I like to wear because, as a non-21-year-old, I have pores.

I likewise have experience lines.

And shine amplifies those things.

Yet I truly like the shiny quite things glitters. They’re — wait on it — wearable!

So what’s “wearable glitter”? Well, I believe the flecks are fine (but not necessarily microscopic), as well as not like the large Skittle-sized pieces of shine you utilize for deal with painting at a child’s birthday party.

Also, IMO the shine bits in “wearable glitter” aren’t all the precise exact same shape as well as size. They vary, owing to a higher degree of complexity as well as sophistication…

Yes, I understand that’s taking shine extremely seriously. ?

By far, the most fascinating glitters in this collection to me are the shiny quite Shadows. They’re moderately pigmented shine shadows with a pearly base, as well as the shine bits are all different shapes as well as sizes. When you press the shadows on your lids either wet or dry — because, let’s deal with it, utilizing a sweeping movement is just gonna send the stuff flying around the location — they nearly look like shattered glass sparkling in sunlight. Some flecks even look like they’re floating above your skin like pixie dust.

The long-wearing Dazzleliners (sparkly-er cousins of the MAC Liquidlast Liners) likewise have that shattered glass effect.

And then there’s Snowflushed, with its fairly incognito gold, bronze as well as pink flecks of shine (subtle shine is always a plus if you have a pore situation).

Also, none of the glosses feel gritty, by the way, if you were wondering.

The take-home house message is this: This is a *very* glittery collection, however a unusual amount of it is wearable, even for somebody older than 20. If you’re into that, inspect out the eyeshadows, the liner as well as the highlighters, which I believe are the standouts.
