MAC Me Over Collection Haul + Swatches



The long wait is over--the MAC Me Over collection has officially arrived in the Philippines. I've waited for this collection since I saw its preview on Temptalia.com last August! I had my eye on the Stunner blush since then. I went to Rustan's Shangri-la yesterday and today to check it out. Figured I wasn't the only one waiting for this collection so I felt the need to hustle. (Okay, LOL.)


I got two powder blushes in Equilibrium and Stunner, and a single eyeshadow in Satin Taupe. The two blushes are exclusive to this collection, the eyeshadow isn't. Satin Taupe is actually part of the regular line, but it's difficult to find in the Philippines. I usually don't see it on MAC's tester racks (Powerplant and Glorietta).


Here's a closer look of the blushes. We have Equilibrium, a muted bronze with warm orange-y undertones, and Stunner, a muted coral pink. Both leave a satin finish on the skin.


Equilibrium is warm and gentle enough to use as an overall cheek color. If you're not big on neutral blushes, this should be a great bronzer. It won't look dirty on the skin at all. Stunner looks really bright and pink when swatched, but it's actually quite flattering on the skin. It leaves a nice rosy glow despite the lack of shimmer.


Here is one of MAC's famous eyeshadows, Satin Taupe. I've wanted this eyeshadow for a long time (As I've said, this is also part of MAC's regular collection), and I am so glad to finally have it. This is an amazing crease color!


Since this is a frost eyeshadow, it has a lot of shimmer. It catches light pretty well, don't you think so?

That was a lot of descriptions for a haul. This turned out to be a mini review! I'll end my blog post here and get back to my That 70's Show marathon. Just one more week of school, and I can blog away. Happy weekend, everyone! Don't forget to visit your favorite MAC counters for the long-awaited MAC Me Over collection!
