MAC MAC in HD

The second collection that was released this week is called MAC in HD. This collection is more aimed at creating a flawless skin finish that would be appropriate to show on HD television. It seems like every company has been jumping on the HD bandwagon lately with the popularity of the Make Up For Ever products and up until I heard about this collection, I was rather suprised that MAC had not also released some form of product to cater to this growing need. But now they have.

This is MAC description of their collection, "Cameras everywhere, media madness, instant images flashed around the world in seconds. You ARE being photographed! Makeup designed for the new-technology demands of the professional world, for girls and boys who want to look good no matter who's looking..."
Here's the collection...

Lipstick - Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made MAC famous.
- Resoloutely Red - deepened claret (Lustre)
- Close to Real - light neutral peach pink (Lustre)
- High Def - mid tone netural coral (Amplified)
- Sharp Focus - deep brown plum (Lustre)

Face & Body Foundation - A water-based, water-resistant foundation that provides long-lasting natural coverage for face and/or body. Ideal for all skin types. Face and Body Foundation provides sheer, natural looking coverage in an easy to blend, water-resistant formula. The long-lasting formula is available in a wide range of colours and contains several emollients to help moisturize and condition the skin. It delivers professional looking results that meet the exacting standards of beauty photography and is ideal for perfecting the face and body.

Mineralize Skin Finish Natural - A luxurious doomed face powder with minerals, slowly baked to provide a dimensional yet natural-matte finish. Provides perfect low coverage. Use to set and fix foundation or as a touch-up throughout the day.
- Light - soft pale beige
- Light Medium - pale golden beige
- Medium - soft creamy beige
- Medium Plus - tan beige
- Medium Dark - caramel beige
- Medium Deep - rich golden tan
- Dark - deep caramel
- Deep Dark - rich golden bronze

187 Duo Fibre Brush - A large full circular brush used for lightweight application and blending of face powder or pigments. Use to create soft layers or add textures. Made from a soft blend of goat and synthetic fibers.

188 Small Duo Fibre Face Brush - A flat-topped, full circular brush used for lightweight application and blending of any formula colour - fluid, cream, powder, or pigment. Ideal for creating soft layers or adding textures. Made from a soft blend of goat and synthetic fibers.

I have been waiting for the Resolutely Red lipstick for over a month now, so that is a product that I will be running to MAC to get as soon as a I can. Otherwise, I am very happy with my current Make Up For Ever HD foundation so I don't really have a reason to switch it up. I am interested in seeing how much coverage the foundation provides for the body sinceI don't own a body foundation at all. I would also consider trying the new Mineralize Skin Finish Natural since I feel that it looks a bit easier to work with than the regular version. While, I am at MAc buying the red lipstick, I might as well look at everything else.
