#28kisses and Counting | Day 8: Secret Kisses

Consider this a little sneak peek of what is to come on Monday Morning. MAC Archie Girls Collection  officially launched in the UK on Wednesday in Selfridges (who somehow managed to get it a fortnight early) and I had to make my order online ASAP without being able to swatch it numerous times like I normally do.

At first when I saw a glimpse of the Archie Girl Collection in 2012 . . . I was NOT impressed as I knew none of the pearlmatte powders would be pigmented enough to wear on dark skin and I loathe white packaging on a product.

 As the months went on and more pictures of the collection was released, I got overly excited. so much so I stalked certain individuals (that I'm not sure if I can name or not) once I found out that she had her hands on the collection. Now don't quote me on this but lets just say my stalking paid off and I have had my hands on this lipgloss and a few others from the collection for the last 2/3 weeks.

I've been sitting on my hands waiting to show this to you but I've had to wait. I'm going to do a mass haul post on this collection covering 6 products so come back on Monday to find out if I'm a Betty or Veronica kind of girl.


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!

Review: MAC Lipglass in Spite

I’m not what you would call a spiteful person but I would really love to go around being a complete cow for a day and when I get confronted for my negative behaviour, I’ll just say “My lipgloss made me do it”.

Now while I don’t know how successfully that would work as an excuse (even though I would probably try it out one day), it doesn’t stop Spite from MAC being an absolute gorgeous lipglass shade.

Best described as a nude, plummy brown, Spite is another recent purchase that I seem to either find in my jeans pocket or in depths of my bag because I really seem to wear it more than my other glosses at the moment and honestly that has to be because Spite is one of those lipgloss shades that are so close (but a better version) of your natural lip shade that you can get away with being COMPLETELY lazy and not having to wear lipliner or a balm or anything extra. Which is super as I’m one of those people you see commuting on the train or bus who always seems to be putting on the last touches of their makeup.

Spite can look a little dull and cool in its tube and while it is not as richly pigmented as many of the products I would normally go for, it is very easy to apply this shade and once applied it kind of adapts to your lips

I think Spite is just one of those colors that would look great no matter your skin tones. It’s simple, neutral and you don’t have to think too hard to use it
