Last weekend my sibling concerned go to as well as stayed the night, and, of course, as usual, I was the couch commando (also understood as remote hog). I was flipping with Netflix with the remote in my hand when I asked, “Who wishes to view The Duchess?”
Dead silence.
PUBLICITATE
None of the young boys — El Hub, my bro or Tabs — were into viewing Keira Knightley, who plays the duchess of Devonshire, parade around in a big wig. huge shock.
I really truly dig regal movies. Anything with royal intrigue as well as trendy women of the court — the kind who wear wigs so tall that they touch the candles in the chandeliers as well as catch terminate (’cause you understand I’m all about the huge hair! as well as flames!), as well as the painted moles, as well as the huge dresses.
If I were a royal, you much better believe I’d be the gal with the tallest, biggest, many flaming wig (assuming somebody rapidly put it out), since then my hair would shimmer like the MAC Heirloom mix collection.

Not pictured: nail Lacquers in just Jewels, Richly Endowed as well as Queen’s Honor; Eye Kohl in taint (swatch here) as well as Eye Kohl in Prunella (swatch here)
If you’ve been complying with MAC for a while, you most likely understand exactly how much they like to go huge when it concerns fancy completes in holiday collections, as well as true to form, there’s a great deal of shimmer as well as frost in Heirloom Mix. shine is virtually all over in the 30-piece restricted edition collection.
MAC Heirloom Mix: My 2-minute overview
Cool-toned colors — color temp-wise, this collection leans cool, as well as it’s heavy on cool-toned grays, blues as well as violets.
Glitter as well as frost — SO much OF THIS. It comes with strong in the pressed Pigments (ooh gurl…we got drama!!), the loose Glitters, Cremesheeen Glasses as well as one of the nail Lacquers. When I was doing the look for the top pic, I felt like I had much more shine on my deal with than a Johnny Weir ice skating costume (remember his holiday collection with MAC? great times!). For serious, while I like glitter, I’m a bit cranky about the pressed Pigments, however I’ll get to that in a minute…
Lipstick like — If you’re only planning to take one thing house type the collection, let it be one of the bright, strong lipsticks in red, berry, plum or pink (the vibe I’m getting: MAC Rocky horror photo Show, part II). They’re my preferred part of the collection.
OK, so, the pressed Pigment drama…
Clockwise from the lower left: Regal Affair, Nostalgic, Noble Descent, Victorian Plum, Enchantment, contemporary Majesty, Noblesse Oblige as well as Prim as well as Proper
For the pics in this publish I’m using a few of the eight pressed Pigments from the collection. They were the very first pieces in the release that caught my eye.
Pressed Pigments clockwise from the lower left: Regal Affair, Nostalgic, Noble Descent as well as Victorian Plum
Now, I’ve utilized pressed Pigments before, as well as I’ve liked them. The others I utilized were glittery as well as fun as well as a quite great deal, too. You got a huge 0.1-oz. pan for $21 — double the size of a routine MAC Eye Shadow.
Pressed Pigments clockwise from the left: Enchantment, contemporary Majesty, Noblesse Oblige, as well as Prim as well as Proper
But the pressed Pigments in Heirloom mix are teeny, tiny. They expense $19.50 each for 0.04 ounces, which is about 20 percent smaller than a routine MAC Eye shadow as well as less than half the size of the other pressed Pigments I’ve used, which hold 0.1 ounces of pressed goodness each.
Can’t state I’m a fan of brands charging the exact same cost or much more for less product, however I’ve been seeing a great deal of that lately. *grinds teeth*
Lipstick love
Lipsticks from the left: Tribalist, No synthetic Pas, Sparks of Romance, Rebel as well as beauty salon Rouge
As for the lipsticks, I like. Whether you have cool- or warm-toned skin, these ought to do ya. No shimmer here. just rich, intense shades of berry, pink, red as well as plum. Your traditional holiday colors.
I truly dig No synthetic Pas, the hot pink (big surprise). It’s a refreshing pop of color among the darker reds as well as berries we see a great deal in holiday collections.
And then there’s Sparks of Romance, the red Matte. It’s a vintage, traditional red that neither leans blue nor yellow. This one, I think, will look fantastic on just about everyone.
The general collection: is it in shape for a royal?
Well, sure, for a woman of the court who uses awesome tones well. I believe there are some beautiful lipsticks here, but, reality be told, about the entire collection, my warm-toned heart isn’t fluttering.
