Quick MAC Glitter and Ice Holiday Collection Swatches!


I've just started to play around with my goodies from the MAC Glitter and Ice collection. I have a few quick swatches for you today and I'll definitely post an eye look later in the week. In the first picture, you can see a very light shimmer/color on top. That's MAC How Beautiful beauty powder. It is gorgeous!! It's really subtle, but adds a nice peachy glow to your cheeks, or any other area of your face. Underneath that is MAC Dressed to Dazzle dazzleglass, a sparkling nude rose lip gloss.


Above is Dressed to Dazzle on it's own. It imparts just a hint of color to lips, but a lot of shine. It would look  amazing over a number of lipsticks, or just by itself!


On the left is MAC Fresh Ice Mineralize Eye Shadow and on the right is MAC Snow Season Mineralize Eye Shadow. I swatched these damp. Using these shadows damp really increases their pigmentation and shine.


On top is Snow Season, on the bottom is Fresh Ice. I really like all of the items I got from Glitter and Ice. They're really subtle and neutral, but super flattering. I don't own a lot of neutral make-up. I tend to go for super bright colors and glittery items. These are a nice departure and create a soft glow. I'll try to post a full face picture of myself wearing How Beautiful beauty powder so you can see how amazing it looks on, but sometimes I look like an alien in self-taken pictures LOL.

I also bought the glitter nail polish, Unconditionally Fabulous, so that will be getting it's own post very soon!

The MAC Glitter and Ice Collection is available online now at maccosmetics.com

Dressed to Dazzle looks really pretty! I picked up Spanking Rich Dazzleglass from this collection and love it. That beauty powder looks great too!

Jenn A.- the beauty powder is unbelievable! I don't usually get the beauty powders, but this one makes my skin look so pretty! I'm tempted to get the second bp too now! Spanking Rich looked really pretty too!
