MAC Glamour Daze Collection

Hello everyone!!!

How are you guys doing in this brand New Year 2013?  I am not doing so well right now because for the past 2 weeks now, my kids and I have been sick.  Oh it is terrible, I cannot move, and all I did was lay in bed or couch most of the time.  On top of that I was dealing with my sister moving out of our home.  It sucks!

Anyway, enough of all negativity, I was not trying to bring negative into the post, I just was trying to explain the reason why I have been missing for a few weeks.  I felt horrible and hopefully I can still have enough loyal readers and not losing all of you guys.  I truly miss blogging! I just always fell asleep sleeping with my sick baby every night and truly didn't have time to even write a blog or even can write.  It was hard.  I apologize.

On this post, I want to talk about the holiday collection from MAC Glamour Daze.  I have bought this palette in early December when they first came out, I didn't do the review until later on.  By the time I did the review, I was too busy to write the post.  Hahaha Well now I try to find the time.

Here is the picture of the palette ALL FOR GLAMOUR FACE KIT in GORGEOUS BRONZE  that I bought.

This is how the palette is boxed.

This is how it looks like when you take it out of its box.  It has a beautiful vintage looking in my opinion.  Glamour truly it is.

I love the bow flap it came with.  It is so pretty.  It is magnetic flap so one has to be careful if one didn't know that it is magnetic, one may open it forcefully and can damage the palette.

This is how it looks like when you open them.  You have a big mirror on top to use.  Perfect to have when you need to touch up in a car and do not have to worry about not having a big enough mirror.  The provided mirror is big enough to see everything :)





It comes with a lipstick that has a lid to it.  Thank goodness.  I hate when they have a palette with lipstick next to the eye shadows because the lipstick will definitely get dirty and that irks me so bad.

It comes with a bronzer, Golden.
3 eye shadows:
Hearts-A-Flutter (S)
Romance Me (L)
Shadowy Lady (M)
2 lipstick: Barely lit(L) and Headturner(CS)
1 Double ended applicator- 275SE Shader and 316SE Lip Brush




I don't know why but the color does not look the way it supposed to.  I tried and tried to capture the right color but to no available so I apologize.

I tried and tried to get a good swatch for the bronzer but my golly, it is so hard to have a good swatch on to my hand. lol.  same thing with the rest of the eye shadows.  It is just difficult.  The swatch that you see is from many many layer of the eye shadows as well as the bronzer.  I knew when I swatch this I will be weary about how it will take when I actually put it on my face.

Well this is the final look that I create from the palette.  The bronzer actually shows up better on my face than it is on my hand when  I swatched it.  The eye shadows were not pigmented at all.  I have to swipe quite a lot of times to get the color to my desire.  Even after I finish, I still find myself touching it up because I just was not satisfied with the colors of the look.  I do love the lipsticks.

The palette actually gives a great collection of colors that give a nice look to your eyes for party or even just an everyday look.  It is the fact that it is not pigmented enough. Arghhhhh it is so disappointed because I honestly fell in love at first sight when I saw this palette and immediately bought it without thinking twice.  It is MAC! It shouldn't be that bad.  Well this is my first disappointment when it comes to MAC products. :(

Last and final look from this palette.  I love the lipstick, headturner.  It is this beautiful blue based magenta.  However, when I tried to take a close up picture of it, it looks more light pink than how it supposed to look hahaha.  I don't know if it was my lighting or my camera. Well I took this three picture to show you how it actually supposed to look.  All the colors looks more identical on my face than it is on my swatches so there you go! Judge it for yourselves all them colors.  I love the final look I create but I cannot lie, it is a pain to use to get to how I want it to look.








All and all, will I recommend you to buy this? Definitely not.  This is the one kit that I actually bummed that it didn't turn out the way I want it to be.

That is all for this post.  I hope you like it and sorry to disappoint you if you are planning to buy this palette, my suggestion is buy something else.  Don't waste your money.  It is not worth it to buy.
Thank you for visiting and until next time! :) XOXO
