MAC Fabulous Felines Swatches

So many things about this collection disappointed me. For starters they could have done something amazing with the packaging but they did nothing. NOTHING. No tabby, no tortoishell, no leopard. Then nothing really grabbed me when the collection images popped up online. I did pick a few things and I do like the quad and the lipstick but I’ll be honest from the get go and say I regret the Pet Me Please Lipstick. I’m also going to apologise now for the images. My stuff has been moved to my new dressing table in a different room and I haven’t figured out lighting yet. I’d recommend looking at Temptalia for more colour accurate pics. I’ll share my thoughts on the products anyway.

The collection is split into three parts. Leopard luxe, Palace Pedigree and Burmese Beauty. It is a huge collection and quite excessive in my opinion. MAC are churning out products faster than I can keep up with. LESS IS MORE! These items are all from the Burmese Beauty section.

Burmese Beauty Eyeshadow Quad:



For £29.50 you get four shadows which isn’t bad going really. The colours are really off in this pic. You get a satin pale cream (Prized), shimmery yellow gold (Skintone2), a brown with green shimmer (Burmese Beauty) and matte dark brown (Showstopper). The greenish shade is actually an almost dead on dupe for MAC Club but with slightly chunkier shimmer. It is a gorgeous quad and I’ve used it a couple of times already. This style of quad is a bit weird though. Unlike traditional MAC quads the shadows don’t pop out so you can’t switch things round like you can in the others.

Spree Lipglass:


This is a gorgeous colour. It’s very shimmery, almost metallic looking. It’s a brownish, silvery pink. I have nothing else like it. It is fairly pigmented too. I would call it cool toned.

Pet Me Please Lipstick:


It’s a sheer, pale, mauve pink and it is extremely frosty. So frosty that it comes of very silver in some lights. I have to wear a gloss to tone this down as I just can’t carry it off by itself. Looking back I should have passed up on this.
I really do recommend looking at these in person before buying. There are so many other collections out too that this one just doesn’t feel special x
