MAC Spring Colour Forecast 1

Within the last week, MAC has released four new collections all under the header "Spring Colour Forecast". Each collection is based off of creating an entire makeup look with the use of one shade. The collection that we are going to look at today is the Spring Colour Forecast 1, the collection that is based on shades of pink. This might just be a favorite of mine. The description of this Spring Colour Forecast is right here, "If it giggles, tickles, teases, it's PINK. Pick a mood, decide on a demeanour, then mix itup for a fervent flash of authentic emotion! Find your forecast, pursue your passion with four vivid, sensual colour ways designed to capture the season in MAC style."

Here are the pinks...

Eye Shadow - Highly pigmented powder. Applies evenly, blends well.
- Rosy Outlook - frosted baby pink (Frost)
- Da Bling - pink with gold pearl (Veluxe Pearl)
- Lala - mid-tone pink (Frost)
- Very Violet - dark violet (Frost)

Crush Metal Pigment: Stacked 1! - Crush Metal Pigment in a shade wave of four stackable jars, specially formulated for the Spring Colour Forecast collection. Provides intense colour payoff and medium coverage with highly reflective metallic sparkle. Creamy, crease-resistant. Long-wearing. Limited edition. Contains the followinng four shades - pale pink frost, mid-tone rose frost, light lilac frost, and dark purple frost.

Plush Lash - A mascara formulated to instantly plump up lashes for extreme voluptous effect. Works fast. Builds volume smoothly and evenly from root to tip. Delivers a silky, flexible full fan of lashes. Fluid formula lightly coats lashes one layer at a time without smearing, smuding, or clumping. Goes on via an innovative, specially patented wand with a v-shaped groove that prunes the bristles on one side with leaving the other side full and lush. The short bristles coax the lashes upward to an extraordinarily sophisticated yet flirtatious curl, while the other side separates and combs the lashes root-to-tip creating a long, well-defined glamour lash. Volumizing, lengthening, curling, lifting. This mascara features everything you want, with all the top mascara no's: no clumping, spiking, smuding, or flaking.
- Plushblack - black

Lipstick - Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made MAC famous.
- Phlox - sheer light pink (Glaze)
- Bubblegum - light lavender pink (Glaze)
- Laugh A Lot - mauve pink (Lustre)
- Pink Burst - clean bright pink with pearl (Frost)

Tinted Lipglass - A unique lip gloss available in a wide variety of colours that can create a high gloss, glass-like finish or a subtle sheen. Designed to be worn on its own, over Lip Pencil, or Lipstick, Tinted Lipglass is the perfect product for creating shine that lasts. It's pigmented, very shiny, and can impart subtle or dramatic colour. It contains Jojoba Oil to help soften and condition the lips. Tinted Lipglass is packaged in a convenient bottle with a sponge tip applicator that provides a quick, smooth, even application.
- Cultureclash - clear baby pink with pearl (Frost)
- Hush, Hush Rose - mid-tone blue pink with pearl (Frost)
- Electric Fushcia - mid-tone fushcia (Frost)

Blush Ombre - A powder blush featuring a shade wave of gentle ombre hues. Ultra-fine formula provides the cheeks with flawless, medium-buildable coverage and light pearled, natural-looking radiance.
- Azalea Blossom - light cool pink
Nail Lacquer - Revolutionary new high gloss formula. Three long-wearing finishes, Cream, Sheer, and Frosted. Visibly different. Provides no-streak/no-chip finish. Contains conditioners and UV protection. Go hi-lacquer!
- Galore Pink - creamy mid-tone blue pink (Cream)

Creations Hue: Pinkaura - Lingerly floral, slightly foxy. Starts off green then bursts into a flowery boquet of florals, black violet, and magnolia pearls. Sashays into a rich warm amber and balmy vetiver.

As I thought, I love this pink hued color collection and will be wanting a bunch of different items from it. Starting from the top, I want the Eye Shadow in the Rosy Outlook and the Da Bling shades. I love the Azalea Pink Blush shade and I am betting that it will be great for my skin tone. Lippie wise, I want the Lipstick in Phlox and Laugh A Lot and the Tinted Lipglass in Hush, Hush Rose. I have wanted to get Hush, Hush Rose ever since i saw the early pictures on Specktra. net and hopefully I will not be let down when I go to get the actual product. I also cannot wait to get my hands on the Pinkaura perfume that is introduced with this collection, I love florals and have recently been getting into green scents also so this one should become one of Spring staples.

So far I am liking this idea from MAC...
