Well, here we go with the new items that are coming out this Holiday season. I am totally not ready to start Christmas shopping or anything of the sort but the products are out, so it's time to start looking at them. Maybe, just maybe, looking at Christmas products early will force to me to start my Christmas shopping earlier and lightened up some of the stress around the season. Maybe...The MAC collection is the first major one that I have seen released this season. This collection is huge, so I am going to break it down into several parts. All the products that I have seen so far in this collection would be a great gift for anyone or a little something special to treat yourself to. The first part of this collection is the new limited edition color palettes. Personally, I would love to find a MAC palette under my tree so I bet many other ladies would too.
Here is the description of the new collection of palettes, "Eight precociously pretty new holiday kits, presented and packaged with bubbly optimism, sophisticated and amusing as a New Yorker cartoon. Each a world of wonder, to collect and give - but only to the most delightful of the deserving".

First of all, I think every single one of these palettes would be a fantastic gift. MAC really has made a great selection of products to begin their Holiday collection. However, I do think that two of the descriptions from the lip palettes are a bit wrong but I copied them exactly as MAC presented them. And what products do I want as a gift to myself this season? Well, I want all of them except for the bronze kit! I especially want both of the lip kits and the Devil May Dare shadow palette. This is great start for MAC and for the Holidays in general.
