Here is my review of MAC GLITTER AND ICE HOLIDAY COLLECTION 2011  !

This is going to be short and sweet! I just wanted to make sure it was up since the collection is released tomorrow in stores. Hope this helps!

I have not used any of these yet so it would be unfair to review them. This is based on my first impression. 

I was fortunate enough to swatch the collection a few weeks ago and so I knew my selection would be very easy. I only chose the things that had me in Awe. 

PAINT POTS

I’ve passed up on many Mac Collections but this one I just couldn’t! I don’t think pictures do the Paint Pots any justice. These are the prettiest I’ve seen Mac come out with in a long time. 

Although I haven’t worn them on my eyes, I could not remove them from my arm! It took a lot of scrubbing and I still have some color that won’t budge! 

WINTERIZED:

Trinity helped me swatch the eyeshadows because I was running out of time. Hence the fabulous tan (If only I could be as tan as her!) She also had to do a lot of scrubbing to remove the swatches from her arm.

WINTERIZED, SNOW SEASON, FRESH ICE, HOLD THAT POSE!

I THINK THESE FEEL JUST LIKE ANY OTHER MINERALIZED EYESHADOW. THEY DON’T FEEL CHUNKY TO ME AND I DON’T FIND THAT THERE IS TOO MUCH GLITTER. I’M NOT A FAN OF EYESHADOW WITH GLITTER AND NORMALLY WOULDN’T PURCHASE ANYTHING WITH GLITTER IN IT. THESE EYESHADOWS DON’T HAVE AN OVERWHELMING AMOUNT AT ALL.

UPDATE!!!!!!!! I TRIED THE MINERAL EYESHADOWS…HOLY GLITTER BALL!!! I SUGGEST DOING YOUR EYE MAKEUP BEFORE FOUNDATION SO YOU CAN CLEAN IT UP. AFTER IT SETS, IT SEEMS TO STAY PRETTY GOOD WITH MINIMAL FALLOUT. I’M NOT A FAN OF THE GLITTER (I PREFER SHIMMER AND SHEEN WITHOUT CHUNKY GLITTER), BUT IT DOES NOT IRRITATE MY EYES LIKE URBAN DECAY SHADOWS THAT CONTAIN GLITTER.
