MAC Brooke Shields Collection

Hello Angels,

I am back with one of MAC's newest collections.  MAC has teamed up with Brooke Shields for their latest release.  Brooke has modeling since she was a baby, so you know at 49 she is still serving good face. The collection is available online and in stores. Here are her stills courtesy of maccosmetics.com:

This is what the brand said about the model/actress:

"The world has never seen a beauty quite like Brooke Shields. With effortless grace and an inner radiance, Brooke is as iconic as her career-defining roles – from ethereal dream girl to castaway goddess, glamorous model-next-door to accomplished actress. M∙A∙C partners with Ms. Shields to create a limited-edition colour collection of shades and finishes chosen by Brooke herself, inspired by her favourite looks for day and night – easy, modern and beautiful.

This limited-edition Beauty Icon collection is made all the more special with Brooke’s signature embossed on light grey packaging with brilliant orange accents. Our life-long romance with Brooke Shields is and always will be forever."

MAC Moody Blooms

Hi Angels,

Sorry we've been MIA for a bit. One of our Pretty Prescribers had a little Angel. We were busy trying to bottle that smell newborn babies come with.  LOL.  It didn't work out...Thank God MAC always keeps us busy.  

Last Thursday MAC released Moody Blooms. This is the promo pic courtesy of maccosmetics.com.

Here is how the brand describes this collection:

Exotic, night-blooming flowers with a hint of danger inspire a hothouse of seductive shades. Sensual colours shroud eyes in earthy metallic Eye Shadows and lips suggest hidden motives with deep blue plum and dark berry hues of Sheen Supreme Lipstick. Bronze Powder Blush provides a final adrenaline surge before these beauties dissolve into the night.

Sounds nice right?  Here is a pic one of our Pretty Prescribers was able to snag just before the release day.

Here are some quick swatches of the sheen supreme lipsticks that were taken courtesy of the Pretty Prescription on NW43 skin.

Released: MAC Kelly Osbourne

Hi Angels,

I f you can remember a little while ago we told you about the upcoming MAC Osbourne Collection.  Well the collection was released Monday on Maccosmetics.com and it is flying off the shelves.  It will be released in stores on the 12th so be on the lookout.  

In the meantime, shall we look at the gorgeous pics? (all courtesy of Maccosmetics.com).  If I get to the release in stores on time I will add my own pics.  In the meantime check out the Osbourne ladies serving face.

Kelly better worrrrrrrkkkkk!!!!!  You know Ms. Sharon was not to be outdone.  Here she is below: (we will look at her items in a separate post)

Can we all gorge!!!!!  Now on to the makeup that I must say was tailormade to each ladies skintone and hair color perfectly.  So if you are a match in anyway you have hit the jackpot.  

Now onto each collection...let us begin with Kelly's collection.  Pictured below is her eyeshadow quad called Bloody Brilliant.

From top left to right: Spoonful of Sugar(sparkling platinum) and aTickety Boo(muted plum brown).

From bottom left to right: Fizzy Rose(pale lilac) and Shadowy Lady(a blackened plum).  The shadows come encased in a pretty lilac palette with Kelly's signature in red. The price is $44.00.  All in all it looks like a cute palette.  It reminds me of Spring Forecast's purple eyeshadow palette from a few years back.

As I have told you all in past posts, I am a brow junkie.  By the looks of Ms. Kelly's next item, so is she.  The next pic is of Kelly's brow duo called Morning Mr. Magpie. 

The shadows used are Soba and Brun.  They are of a satin finish and are used to fill in the brows.  In the limited edition signed palette this is priced at $22.00.

The Kelly Jumbo Pentulmate is the next pretty piece. In the collection's signed purple shell you will find Rapidblack which is a deep dark black liner.  It is priced at $22.00.  Here it is below:

Kelly's beautifully lined lids are also lined by her own kohl.  It is called Kelly's eye Khol.  Smolder(black) is reintroduced to us in the pretty packaging for $17.50.  It is currently sold out on maccosmetics.com.  Have a look :

Our next pretty is one of the sold out items.  It it the Kelly lip pencil.  In Synch is given a makeover in the special packaging for $16.50.  Take a look below and if you like it try to purchase it at your neighborhood counter. 

The next Kelly item flew off the website. It is the lipsticks.  If anyone knows Kelly, she is serious about her lipstick.  She cried when she couldn't find another Candy Yum Yum.  Look at these pretties:

Strip Poker (matte)

Riot House (matte)

Kelly Yum Yum (satin). So fitting!

Dodgy Girl (matte)

I am a pink girl so I will definitely swatch Kelly Yum Yum.  I would've preferred it in a matte finish.  But who knows...the other three will look stunning on paper beauties.  Kelly must look stunning with dodgy girl.  

We will now look at Kelly's mineralize skinfinish.  It is called Jolly Good.  It is double sided with mineralize light cool beige and pink.  It is $33.00 and currently sold out online.  Here it is pictured below:

There is also a blush in this collection called Cheeky Bugger.  It is a matte rosy pink pictured below.  It is priced at $22.00 and is also sold out at maccosmetics.com.  Feast your eyes on Cheeky Bugger.

The last two items in this collection are brushes.  They are both currently sold out online.  The first is the 219se pencil brush.  This se brushes are smaller than your regular brushes and are machine made.  It is for your crease and smudging eyeliner in the lower lash line.  It has the pretty light purple handle and signature.  It retails for $27.50. Here is the pic:

The second brush is also a short end and retails for $58.00.  It is the 183se flat buffer.  It makes buffing powders and bronzer a snap.  It also has the pretty purple handle and signature.

So Angels, what do you think about Kelly's collection?  Were you a part of the luck few that bought the most popular items?  Are you going to the store launches?  Let us know what you did and what you thought?  I'll be back with Sharon's half later on.

Until next time Angels
