MAC Red She Said

Time for yet another MAC attack, this time in the form of the newest collection for the Holiday Season entitled “Red, She Said”. This collection looks to me like it a follow up to the insane popularity of Cult of Cherry and that the red lip trend is not dying anytime soon this season. But that’s ok because I don’t want it to yet!

This is the official description from MAC, “The retro-starlet allure of Hollywood glamour, with a modern twist. A season where lips connive, then confess in shades of bright holiday reds. Party season and passions flare! “Red” She Said and no one could resist her…”

Well, overall, I like most of the colors in this collection but I’m really not feeling that there is any extraordinary colors or anything really unique. I know that red is huge trend right now, but this collection is just coming off the heels of Cult of Cherry. I have heard really positive feedback about the Red She Said lipstick and how it is one of the most perfect red pigments every created but I haven’t heard much else. The Dazzleglasses are one product that I am really lemming but the colors don’t fit in very well with the Red She Said theme, they really could have been there own release. That being said, I will be trying Red She Said out on myself to see how good of a red hue it really is and I will continuing to stalk my local MAC counter for constantly out of stock Dazzleglasses.
