MAC Nail Trend F/W '10

Well the past few days have felt more like fall then summer so it not really time to get in the mood for some cooler weather. MAC has just released their newest Nail Trend collection, made with the artist knowledge of Jin Soon. On first glance, these shades look like deep, rich creams and I am liking this collection. The MAC website describes this collection, "Mistress of the art of the sophisticated nail, Jin Soon was inspired this season by the sensual pleasures of Imperial China. A collection of hues in exotic and ravishing combinations, opaque and rich with pearl essences for a subtle dimension". Nice...

Here are the new shades...

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!
- Rain of Flowers - blackened violet (Frost)
- Imperial Flower - bright reddish orange (Frost)
- Jade Dragon - emerald green (Frost)
- Ming Blue - cobalt blue (Frost)
- Concubine - blackened red (Frost)
- Earthly Harmony - muted taupe (Frost)

Overlacquer - A fast drying high gloss top coat that amplifies MAC Laquer's high gloss finish while providing a protective coating against everyday wear and tear. Formulated with UV protection, helps reduce sun-related fading and discolouration. Colourless. Instantly guards your nail and manicure!

My two favorite shade of the collection are Ming Blue and Concubine, I can never resist a deep blue shade. Or a deep red for that matter. I also like the Jade Dragon shade and the Rain of Flowers though they might be harder to pull off. I am liking this turn to deep shades after two seasons of brights.
