My Highland Honey.... Met me at the Faerie Glen ♛

So my lovelies I recently went to make to pick up some stuff from the new Tartans tale collection ( Loved the theme!!) and So I went and only picked up four things. When I went home I ran into my Makeup Room and Tried on My highland Honey blush, and Faerie Glen Lipstick. I thought Highland honey wouldn't look that good on me because I am soooo fair but I showed up great, and is a perfect peach color for me :) Faerie glen is nice too, but since I have really pigmented lips it didn't show up as well as I had hoped :( But the name is still worth the purchase! I have loved faeries since I was pretty much born! And just Thought I would throw it out that I am wearing sunscreen in this picture which is why it makes me look lighter than my neck :)

Venomous Villains Swatches

The much anticipated swatches! Everyone absolutely went crazy over this line. I personally liked the launch, but would much rather have seen Disney princesses, rather than villains but hey I'll take it. Initially I just wanted the whole Maleficent line, but then when it came down to ordering I didn't order much from her. I didn't get anything from the Dr. Faciler line (thinking I will be going back to get the truth & light powder though!), But I much rather would have seen Ursula be in the collection. I know MAC wanted a different Race, and Sex but Ursula is an octopus, which is a completely different Race!! They could have picked a villain like Scar from the lion king or those evil dudes in Mulan, they have been Disney villains for quite some time they earned it!
Anyway here are some product swatches and photos :)

Pretty Eyeshadow.. but nothing special.

BEAUTIFUL On top of a black base!! Check this out definitely!


Couldn't get it to show up well on my arm, so I used my finger! Gives fair children a "snow white" look. Irony much?


Really nice for a subtle flush on fairer skinned individuals, and could be a good highlighter on darker skinned individuals!

Top- Bottom: Heartless, Dark deed

I love my reds!! I would say if you have Media lipstick skip Dark deed, but Heartless is a beautiful really, really red color!



Top- Bottom: Strange Potion, Wrong Spell

I really like both of these but "Wrong Spell" is patchy in application, "Strange Potion" is very smooth & consistent though.



Overall: I definitely think you should check out the lipsticks in this line, as well as the Mineralize Eyeshadows, & blushes! But If you see something that catches your eye.. get it!!
