MAC's holiday collection: Magic, Mirth and Mischief

Tis the season to be lovely. Winged violet eyes = GORGEOUS! I think this is the perfect look for the holidays! MAC's holiday collection has 8 different looks. However, this particular one is not one of the 8. I took the liberty of chatting with a mac pro make up artist to achieve this look (which means staying up late due to the time zone difference). Enjoy!

EYES:


Sweep MAC's Seedy Pearl Eyeshadow on your brow bones for highlight. Seedy pearl is a chilled lavender pink eyeshadow with a frosty finish.
Use the rich violet shade on the Devil-May-Care Mineralize Eyeshadow Duo on the eyelids.

Apply Eyeshadow in Nocturnelle (pinked-up chrome purple shadow with frosty finish) on the crease and lower lash line.
Line the inner and outer lash line with Powerpoint Eye Pencil in Engraved. It is a rich, black, waterproof and long-wearing eyeliner.

Luna Cream Colour Base: Bright white with shimmer, frosty finish

Eyeshadow in Filament: Platinum silver shadow

Combine the luna cream colour base with eyeshadow in filament and apply on the inner corner of the eye.

LIPS:

Prime the lips with MAC's lip conditioner. Outline and fill the lips using Cremestick liner in Beurre.
The cremestick helps keep the lipstick and gloss in place by preventing it from feathering and "bleeding".





Fill the lips with MAC lipstick in Total Wow (a blue pink berry glaze) and top it off with Dazzleglass in Jingle Jangle.


Dazzleglass in Jingle Jangle (yellow pink with sapphire pearl)

CHEEKS:

Finally, complete the look with MAC's Mineralize Blush in SuperDuper Natural! A mid-tone coral blush with frost finish.


Note that I got these pics from the net so colors may vary depending on your screen, etc. Best to checkout MAC's website for better reference. I will TRY to buy each of the products used for this look, budget permitting or look for other alternatives. With the looks of it, I'm not quite sure if it will work on all skin tones. I shall head to the shop and check them all out! :) Later!
