Last Thursday, MAC launched their holiday mini kits collection called Guilty Passions. There is a total of six kits in this collection, all of which are new and limited edition, and in special edition packaging for holiday. Guilty Passions sees the release of three Lip Gloss sets, each containing two Cremesheen Glass, one Dazzleglass, and one Dazzleglass Crème in clear tubes with a black bow design. Each kit is housed in a round, pale pink, chevron-print box trimmed with a black patent bow. Both Dazzleglass and Dazzleglass Crème come with brush applicators, and Cremesheen Glass comes with a doe-foot applicator. All of the glosses are vanilla-scented but taste-free. Each set contains a total of 8.3 grams of product (2.6 grams in each Dazzleglass, and 1.9 grams in each Dazzleglass Crème and Cremesheen Glass), and retails for $38.50.
Fashion Whim, Satin Slip, Get Rich Quick, and Kiss Don't Tell
Fashion Whim, Satin Slip, Get Rich Quick, and Kiss Don't Tell
Fashion Whim is a light peachy beige with extremely fine, subtle micro-shimmer in the Cremesheen Glass formula. It is a permanent shade. The texture is creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly, though the milkiness of the shade tends to emphasize lip lines. It has low-medium pigmentation and semi-sheer colour pay-off. It is lighter and more pigmented than Boy Bait, and lighter and more peach than Double Happiness.
Satin Slip is a light golden peach with gold and pink micro-shimmer in the Dazzleglass Crème formula. It is a new and limited edition shade. The texture is creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly. It has low pigmentation and semi-sheer colour pay-off. It is lighter and less orange than Rising Sun Cremesheen Glass, and much lighter and less pink than Smile Dazzleglass.
Get Rich Quick is a medium-dark rose-brown with magenta shimmer in the Dazzleglass formula. It is a permanent shade. The texture is slightly gritty, but goes on smoothly and evenly. It has low pigmentation and semi-sheer colour pay-off. It is more brown than Roman Holiday, and darker and more rosy than Beaux Lustreglass.
Kiss Don't Tell is a medium-dark red-toned brown in the Cremesheen Glass formula. It is a new and limited edition shade. The texture is creamy, and it goes on smoothly and evenly. It has high pigmentation and opaque colour pay-off. It is more reddened than Over Indulgence.
Of all the sets that MAC comes out with for the holidays, the lip gloss kits offer the best value. The Dazzleglasses in these sets actually have more product than their full-size counterparts, and the Cremesheen Glasses and Dazzleglass Crèmes come with only slightly less product than their full-size counterparts. In total, you are getting $83.94 worth of lip gloss for $38.50! If you like the formulas included in this kit and you like at least two of the shades, it's definitely worth getting.
Kiss Don't Tell kind of intrigues me but I have a bad history of picking brown lippies that end up looking aging. :<
ReplyDeleteLOL. I can always give you mine. Only been swatched, never worn. :) That way, you won't have to decide!
