Venomous villians

It’s official. All spending will be postponed in preparation for the launch of MAC’s soon to be range, Venomous Villians. I’m locking up the plastic, selling my soul and having beans for dinner until october…

Wahhhh! So excited! I’ve only been on the MAC bandwagon for a year or so now, but the saying is true, once you MAC you’ll never go back 😉 Obviously I don’t buy ALL my makeup from there. But after missing out on some really good releases (including their last Hello Kitty collab, I mean… what planet was I on?!) I have already done my homework and made up a little wish list of what I’m hoping to get my paws on from the collection. There’s been a lot of negative feedback about how tacky the packaging looks, and how boring the colours etc are, bla bla bla. But frankly, I am very excited and impressed with what I’ve seen so far. I found a great article which goes into detail about the product development and back story, and you can read all about it here.

Seeing colour swatches also helped me to make up my wish list good and proper! Here’s what my heart is set on (yes, I know its going to break the bank so this month I am going to be on my very best behaviour!) 

Evil Queen from Snow White:

Strange Potion Lipglass

Toxic Tale Lipstick

Bite Of An Apple Powder Blush

Malefecent from Sleeping Beauty:

Briar Rose Beauty Powder

Bad Fairy Nail Laquer

Cruella from 101 Dalmations:

Wicked Ways Lipglass

Innocence, Beware! Lipstick

Nothing really struck me from the Dr Facilier (The Princess and The Frog) range, but it does include some really stunning greasepaint sticks and bold pigments!

But don’t take my word for it, go have a look for yourself! 🙂 Again, that link is http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/mac-makeup/mac-venomous-villains-101-things-you-didnt-know.
