MAC Me Over: Nail Lacquers

on
Monday, August 29, 2011

MAC released a new collection last Thursday called MAC Me Over. MAC held an online competition in which thousands of people submitted videos and photos of themselves to be the models for this collection. This is the first collection from MAC in which all the promotional displays feature "real people" rather than hired models, ranging in age, gender, and race. MAC Me Over is a huge collection, comprising of a total of 52 products, and is one of MAC's collections for fall. There are a total of four new and limited edition nail lacquers featured in this collection. In this post, I will be reviewing three of the four shades. Each nail lacquer comes in regular black packaging, contains a total of 10 ml, and retails for $18.

Quiet Time, Fatigues, and Deep Sea

Quiet Time is a greyed beige in a Cream finish. It is very similar to Essie's Sand Tropez.

Fatigues is a dark muted army green in a Cream finish. It is a darker and greyer version of Zoya's Dree.

Deep Sea is a deep dark teal-based blue in a Cream finish. It is darker and more teal than Blue India, and more teal than Beyond Jealous.

Overall, I thought these shades captured the fall trends quite nicely, and all three shades applied really nicely for me. They all went on quite smooth and evenly, and I didn't experience any streaking. They are a little on the thinner side in terms of consistency, but I got opaque colour coverage in two medium coats for each shade, and didn't experience any goopiness or bubbling. If any of the shades appeal to you, definitely take a look, though you may find a good dupe for much cheaper.

  1. These colours are <3!
    Autumn couldn't come sooner. Did I mention I'm apparently allergic to the sun? :(

  3. The colors are SO nice! I always stick to Essie, Orly and OPI for polishes but these colors might make me try MAC for a change!

  4. Hey, Irene! I find that it's only worth it to get MAC nail polish if you really like the colour. It's same thing with any expensive polish, like Chanel. I find that brands like Essie or OPI have so many dupes of shades, that it's only worth splurging if the colour is really unique.
