As my mum has 5 sisters with the youngest
being only 11 years older than me, a mirror reflection (except 6ft tall . . . at 5”8
I’m the midget in my family (with a strong Napoleon complex)) and a strong
obsession with the Archie comics. I can’t remember a time I haven’t seen
Twinnie with an Archie comic and she is the only person I know with an online
subscription to the Archie Comic Store WITH the iPad app. Suffice to say I was
involuntarily indoctrinated with the antics of Bettie, Veronica, Archie and Jughead before I could even walk.
I see the Archie comics as part of my
childhood, so can you comprehend the mass hysteria I felt when I heard that MAC
were doing an Archie’s Girls Collation?? Actually I don’t you think you can,
but just imagine a lot of mouse-like squeaking and a long distance phone call
with more mouse like squeals.
MAC Archie’s Girls Collection is split into
two parts with very distinct shades to represent the different personalities of
the two girls after Archie’s heart. There are 16 Betty products and 16 Veronica
Products with 5 accessories to tie the collection together. With the Betty
products (aka the ones with the blonde on them) you get lovely spring and natural colours; pinks, browns, teals and corals,
and with Veronica’s (aka the one with the brunette)
you get darker, rich shades like fuchsias, plums and purples.
I’ve been hyped up ever since I heard it
and if you follow me on twitter then you have probably seen me and Adrienne go
on and on about this collection (Can you blame
us??). I think what made this collection even more exciting for me is I
got sent a few items about 2 weeks ago by the best British Blogger in the world
who I’m not going to name; because I’m not sure if I can, but I will happily
help her take over the world if she decided she wanted to *That much love
and appreciation people*
I was sent Magic Spells Pigment, Feelin’ So Good Lipglass & the Black Swan Pearlglide. All gorgeous shades for both the Betty & Veronica collection but you know I couldn’t just leave things at that. Now hold on to your comic books because this is going to be a HUGE swatch fest!!!
I really love this collection and I hope you to. I
bought a bit more than I needed with this collection because I want to send
some over to Twinnie by international post just because I know it will make her
day . . . and to say sorry for ripping up her Archie comic and hiding it when I
was younger
Miss out on MAC Stereo Rose Mineralize Skinfinish?? Well even though it's sold out in all the stores, here is your chance to WIN one!!!! Enter my February give-away!
