MAC Nymphette, BlushBaby & Hush: Photos & Swatches

A few weeks ago, I ordered some MAC products from CheapSmells which is one of my favorite websites. They were having a sale on all their MAC products + they were offering 20% extra off their sale price. Two of these products had been on my wish list before, so I was extremely happy to see them on sale. Of course I had to pick up the two products that was on my wish list and I also managed to find another product that grabbed my attention :)

I hope you enjoy my little MAC ''mini haul'' post. To see pictures and swatches of the products, just keep reading :)

Product Review: MAC Sultry Snowglobe Eyeshadow Palette [Swatches]

The MAC Sultry Snowglobe Eyeshadow Palette retails for $38 and its a limited edition holiday compact that features six eyeshadows. You get Lightfully (a white with pink reflect), Trax (a burgundy-plum with shimmer), Fun! (a pink patina), Festive Delight (a bordeaux wine)
Black Tied (a black with silver sparkle), and Shadowy Lady (a blackened plum).

Trax, Black Tied, and Shadowy Lady is a part of MAC's permanent range so if you already own them, I dont recommend that you go out and get this palette. Lightfully, Fun and Festive Delight is limited edition shades. This palette is from the MAC Ice Parade Collection that came out in October 2011.

I just can't stop shaking this product haha! The snowglobe packaging is really beautiful and the Silver and White together is perfect for the holidays. When it comes to the product itself, I have to say that Im a little disappointed. The eyeshadows are extremely beautiful but they are too chalky and I was having the hardest time swatching them. Lightfully was the hardest shade to swatch, it hardly shows up in the picture which is too bad because its such a pretty
color. I even tried using Too Faced shadow insurance as a base but that didn't help much either.

Trax, Festive Delight and Shadowy lady is definitely the best shades in this palette. They are still a little chalky but they are much easier to work with and they are really pigmented as well. But Trax and Shadowy Lady is a part of MAC's permanent range so if you are curious about trying them, I highly recommend that you get them separate and skip on this palette :)
