Mac’s Alluring aquatic collection

Hi my lovelies,

It took me quite some time to choose what I wanted to write about as my first post…it had to be something limited edition (of course) and something I loved! So here are my picks can from mac’s alluring aquatic collection! (I wrote this post at first and it was extremelyyyy long… so I have helped you all by cutting the article into the various different products with this blog post being about the collection itself)

My picks from the collection

This is truly one of my favourite collections. From this collection I bought a 127 brush, an eyeliner  (black swan), two eyeshadows  (Lorelei & Soul Serenade,) two lipsticks (Goddess of the sea & Mystical), a bronzer (refined golden) and a blush (seduced at sea).

Firstly, let’s take a second to admire the packaging… It can be seen that mac has really worked hard on the packaging. The items are all a sea blue colour with water droplets on the packaging…yes…water droplets! What’s amazing about the packaging is that the droplets are not embossed, they are 3D…meaning that you can actually feel the drops!

Water drops

This collection was released on April the 22nd, although we did not expect this collection to be out at this date, it sure did sell out fast online! Similarly when this collection launched in stores it was sold out rather fast! I went to Selfridges London not after launch date and found that many of the products were out sold out. I’m sure I don’t have to also explain how many people were grabbing the items of the collection and swatching them! I could not deal with this after a long day of university! So the following day that I did not have university I went to my local mac counter which is within House of Fraser. I was so happy to see that many items were in store and that there was not many people, meaning that I could leisurely swatch items and ask for help! This made me a very happy Henna!
