Nothing is more fun then pairing makeup with fashion! MAC’s latest collection partners with Liberty of London for a wonderfully whimsical collection. When I think of London, I think fresh, funky and anything goes, which is definitely reflected in the packaging. Which, by the way is AWESOME, haven’t seen anything like this from MAC in a while. The shades have a little something for everyone and if you are a collector, this one is not to be missed.
The very latest in a series of famous M·A·C collaborations, it was only a matter of time before the demure-to-daring kaleidoscopic prints of Liberty of London coloured our world with Brit wit and bohemian chic. From the unstudied, Sienna Miller style of Spitalfields Market to the grit-and-glamour of Portobello Road, the swinging London girl has always been an unstoppable M·A·C makeup force! Spring 2010 insists on the ultimate flower fusion, with M·A·C joining forces with Liberty, creating cool Britannia compacts and Lipsticks, Eye Shadows, Powder, Blush, Nail Lacquers and, of course – blushing, bountiful, quite British accessories.
FYI – There are several permanent/repromoted shades in this collection Permanent shades are Peachstock (PRO), Free to Be, and Dirty Plum (PRO). Repromoted shades are Dame’s Desire (Dame Edna), Shell Pearl (various), Summer Rose (Rose Romance), and Vestral White (Hello Kitty).
