New From MAC: All About Orange

MAC All About Orange CollectionAvailable yesterday online, and in stores from June 6-22 is MAC’s All About Orange collection which hits on the coral and orange craze that is sweeping makeup counters this summer.  We’ve seen oranges and corals in bits and pieces in summers past, but I think MAC brings it all together by featuring a collection that focusses on just that colour.  If you’ve been looking for the perfect shade of coral lipstick or blush then you’ll find what you’ve been searching for in this collection, because there’s an entire range of shades so that there’s something for everyone (well, almost… you’ll see what I mean).  The collection spans from peaches to corals to bright tangerine in a variety of finishes.  The cherry on top is the eyeshadow quad – not made up of orange (thank goodness!) but of greys which go with everything!

I love that there are tons of lipstick colours to choose from and they come in a variety of finishes, but I do wish that the Cremesheen Glass wasn’t just available in frosted colours.  It would have been nice to see a few cream finishes which is what I love the Cremesheen Glasses for!  I also wish that all the blushes weren’t satin finishes.  It would have been nice to see atleast one matte – shimmer is the one thing you can always add in yourself, especially when it comes to a blush or bronzer.  Still, the saving grace is that the Satin finish is not overly shimmery.  It just has a beautiful finish that makes skin look like it’s glowing.
