MAC Peacocky Haul

MAC is trying to drain makeup lovers wallets dry! First it was Cham Pale then it was Stylishly Yours, now it's Mickey Contractor and Peacocky collections all in the span of two weeks. What gives MAC? Not only that, the prices are more expensive.

The MAC Peacocky collection consists of a beautiful array of limited edition eyeshadows and Kissable Lipcoulour. The colors are bold and bright and it is tempting to get them all but there are certain colors that are dupable. Temptalia has the entire list of dupes of this collection if you head on over to her site!

This is what I got
It was so tempting to get all the lip colors from this line. However after much debate I settled on these two: Scandelicious and Flaunting It. Kissable Lipcolours are not like lipglasses from MAC. They go on smooth and are as vibrant as lipsticks. There is no tackiness or stickiness. 

These eyeshadows are larger than your average MAC shadow. I fell in love with Noir Plum and Dandizette the moment I saw them. Tweet Me is a great neutral and you know how I am about neutrals! I will do some looks with these colors soon!

What did you guys get from the Peacocky Collection? Tell me cause I wanna know!

My Ulta Haul

Last week I finally used my Ulta gift card. My close friends had given it to me for my birthday but I hadn't really sat down to go through the site. After debating and much decision making, this is what I got.

From left to right:
-NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder in Taupe/Ash
-NYX Runway Collection Palette in Jazz Night
-NYX Eyeshadow in Sahara
-Philosophy Body Wash in Red Velvet Cake (it smells sooo good)
-China Glaze in Harmony (My first!)
-Benefit Boi-ing and Eye Bright duo
-Three perfume samples.
-NYX Eyeshadow in Rust (Not shown cause it exploded...i.e., shattered and was messy)

I'm super excited to try the nail polish and the Runway palette. The beau actually picked both colors out for me.

Hope you are all having a wonderful Tuesday!

NoTD: Combo of OPI and Milani

I am in love with these Milani 3D Holographic nail polishes. For this look I mixed OPI's Meet Me on the Star Ferry and Milani's 3D Holographic nail polish in HD. I applied two coats each and topped it off with the famed Seche Vite top coat.

Happy Monday! How is your new year starting out? Good? Great? Bad? So-so?

Talk to you all soon.

MAC Stylishly Yours Haul

Being an avid fan of bright colors I was super excited about this collection. I just wanted to do a quick post of what I got. I don't have the swatches up yet just because I haven't had the heart to try them yet!
I'm sure you are all sick of me purchasing purple lipsticks but I can't help just how pretty they look! Style Curve is a Cremesheen finish and Something New is an Amplified finish so you know this bad boy will be super pigmented.


This is a gel liner is most known as Fluidline from MAC. It is a beautiful plummy color that contains a hint (and this is slight) of purple glimmer. Dark Diversion is going to be a great change from your everyday black liner and will make brown eyes pop.

I don't have many cream base anything(s). I figured this collection would be a great way to start. These colors are not safe for the eyes but are great for the lips and cheeks. From the swatches I have seen, they are very pigmented and very creamy. I cannot wait to use these as bases!

Did any of you purchase anything from the Stylishly Yours collection? If so tell me what you got! Talk to you all soon!
