MAC To The Beach and More Haul

Photobucket
OK I was going to start posting the bits I got yesterday but then my MAC order came and the general consensus of opinion was that's what you would like to see first :)
This month saw the release of a couple of new collections from MAC including the much anticipated summer collection To The Beach. I have to admit on first glance it didn't really appeal to me but the more I looked at it the more I actually wanted :)

The one thing I originally wanted from the collection was one of the kohl pencils in Rosemary and Thyme -a gorgeous olive green - I really like the packaging of these pencils a creamy white with a seaweed design in the colour of the pencil :)

Given my recent love of pale pink lipsticks after looking at the collection pics I also made another two purchases first of all I picked up Lazy Days lipstick.

A gorgeous pale pink in the lustre formulation this comes packaged in a dark orange bullet with a seashell design - I really like this actually and the orange packaging isn't as bad as I'd thought it would have been unlike Neo Sci Fi - it's actually a much darker orange

I also picked a lipglass for the collection - again a lovely pale pink - Easy Lounger

Pret a Papier also launched in the UK this month and on the whole I was a bit disappointed with this collection the lipsticks were particularly disappointing but I still picked up one item - the eyeshadow in tissueweight

This will make a lovely highlight colour - a shimmery cream /peach

Over the last month I've seen lots of praise given to the MAC greasepaint sticks from the Art Supplies collection - they were still on the site so I thought I'd try one and ordered Dirty - a blackened taupe -it feels really creamy and will be great for a smokey eye

I also ordered a few permanent things - cream colour base in Shell :)

and eyeshadows in Patina

and Black Tied

So they you have it a lovely MAC haul, I have to admit I have ordered another few bits because my nearest MAC counter didn't have To The Beach out yet - whoops! I have another couple of hauls to come so bleurgh to haul haters lol My first one will be my Top Shop Make Up haul, then maybe my Metro Centre haul, and then a blog sale haul:) Any questions on anything I bought please let me know x

  2. I love a haul! I love the To the Beach lipstick packaging too, even though I didn't think I would. Lazy Days is gorgeous. I really liked the Pret a Papier collection so I just got a load of things from there too, oops! Patina is a great choice, its definitely one of my favourite MAC eyeshadows.
