From cheeks that blush, just a pinch, to soft rosebud shades and refreshingly fragrant fixes, it’s a summer rose romance. Rosy pinks, faithful fuchsias and forget-me-not blues…a limited-edition collection of colours, to pick, peruse and ponder.

FIX+ROSE ($17.00)
MAC popular Fix + enhanced with rose water. Formulated from spring water, rich in added minerals, this aromatic mist refreshes, hydrate, and conditions the skin while acting as a perfect finishing fix for makeup

marr5
CREATIONS HUE: DEJAROSE ($22.50)
Intriguingly romantic: a real scent paradox, Bulgarian, Turkish and Tea Roses mingle with orchid, lily, jasmine and peony to create a rosy retro-scent that slips to sex the summer senses, a finale of light and dark woods, patchouli and amber crystal.

What do you think of the collection? Love it? Hate it? I have to say that this is the first MAC collection that got me interested in ages. I think the colors would suit my pale skin well and the beauty powders look so pretty!

I went to MAC counter yesterday and checked out this collection. It is much better than the previous ones but still… I got a See Thru Lip Colour and will do a review on it.

Ahleessa: I know! I can’t keep up with them either! I wish they released fewer but better collections, instead of coming up with 4 boring collections a month features repromotes and easily dupable colors.

Dao: I can’t wait to read your review! I’m really interested in most of the stuff in the collection, esp the beauty powders, although I think they’re a bit overpriced. Instead, I don’t really like the eyeshadow shades, I think they’re quite boring. But still, I think it’s the best collection MAC has released this year so far.
