Dame Edna showed up in MAC stores about 2 weeks ago. Initially, I wasn't uber excited about the collection, but I just had to have something with the packaging (MAC collector over here!). I ended up only picking two items (pro discount does not apply). I picked the Wisteria Trio because the purple trio had Climate Blue in it (which I have). Next, I picked up the Highlighting Powder in What a Dame! because after swatching it, I found that underneath all the shimmery stuff, the matte powder has a nice silky texture. I've been looking for a Matte highlighting powder for myself anyways.
Check out the sparkly purple boxes!
Yes these are stickers...the compact and trio seem to have a little bit of a plastic coating on top though...hopefully it will hold!
Check out my video tutorial for the Wisteria Trio!
Makeup shots with my new camera! Yay! Finally I can get close ups. Don't they look much more clear?

You make EVERYTHING look great Ren! I dunno if I'm gonna get anything for the collection (I'm not too fond of the packaging) but I saw the purple palette yesterday and the MUA was wearing it and it looked so pretty on her cause it was matte and the right shades of purple - so I MIGHT pick that up haha.

ReplyDeleteSomehow my comment got removed :-( But I'll rewrite it for ya!
ReplyDeleteI love this look you really, really rocked it. The blue looks super hot. I remember when you made me up we had a chat about the Dame Edna collection and you mentioned that you weren't looking forward to it. I saw it at the MAC store two days ago and I wasn't impressed either.
Of course I just changed my mind ;-)
I didn''t get a chance to comment on the Kim Kardashian post, but it looks AMAZING. Probably one of my favorite looks!

I only got 2 things from dame edna as well, wisteria trio and spectacle highlighting powder. I haven't even used either yet. Hmm. I'll definitely try this look though. Btw, the quality of the pics is awesome. I'm in need of a new can too, which one do you have?
ReplyDeleteI looked online at this and didn't know what to do with the colors...you always turn everything ordinary into something scrumptious hottie! I'm definitely a fan beautiful! Loves ya!!
