MAC 'Heavenly Creature' Haul

Hey Everyone, 


Last week I took a trip to my local MAC counter to swatch some of the items from MAC's newest collection, Heavenly Creature. Of course, once I was there, and had swatched so many gorgeous things, I couldn't leave empty handed. 


While I don't like mineralized products from the majority of the beauty companies currently on the market, there is something about MAC's mineralized eyeshadows and blushes that I can't help but love. Not only are they super pigmented (well, most of the time), they go on effortlessly and, for me, last the entire day. 
With so many beautiful mineralized products to choose from, I finally decided on the following: 

MAC Mineralized Eyeshadow in 'Magnetic Attraction':
With swirls of gold, orange and plum, MAC's 'Magnetic Attraction' is a gorgeous shadow that when swirled together, creates a stunning pink-toned copper. While the shadow looks nice when all of the colours are mixed, I, personally, have been keeping the colours separate wearing the gold on the inner corner of my lid, the orange on the middle part of my lid, and the plum on the outer corner of my lid. This shadow looks great on a variety of skin tones, and because of it's warm copper hue, really makes blue eyes pop. 

MAC Mineralized Blush in 'Supernova':
With a super hot pink base, and a small swirl of golden glitter, this blush is perfect for the warmer summer months. While this blush looks somewhat scary in the pan (well for those who are adverse to bright colours), when applied with a light hand, 'Supernova' gives the cheeks a gorgeous, warm glow. Although I am not usually a fan of a lot of glitter or shimmer in my blushes, Supernova's sparkle is very finely milled, giving the face a slightly highlighted effect. 

MAC Lipstick in 'Fire Sign':

While none of the lipsticks in the Heavenly Creature collection  are mineralized (does anyone do mineralized lipsticks?), they are extremely gorgeous. After swatching several different colours, I finally decided on 'Fire Sign', a somewhat sheer and very glossy pink-toned red. Unlike a lot of the blue toned reds MAC makes, it is my belief that this lipstick would look great on both warmer and cooler skin tones. If you are in the market for a red lipstick, but don't want anything too bold, this is the lipstick for you.

Below are swatches of all three products I picked up from Heavenly Creature, as well as a picture of my sister, Krista, wearing all three products.
