MAC Nocturnals Lipgloss/Pink (Limited Edition) Review and Swatches

During the holidays I received a call from the MAC store saying that the holiday limited collection was out. I just could not wait and went the same day to check it out. Even though I’m not a big lip gloss girl, I just could not stop myself from buying the Nocturnals Lipgloss in Pink.

The pack comes in 4 lipgloss weighting in at 0.08 oz each. The MAC Nocturnal Lip Gloss Set is actually an excellent value as each tube is 0.08 oz in size versus a full size Dazzleglass that weighs in at 0.06 and a full size Cremesheen that weighs in at 0.08 oz each. So essential there is way more product in these tubes(these tubes look really small)

The shades you get are:
• Fashion Scoop Clear pink (Cremesheen Glass)
• Colour Saturation Dark cool wine creme (Cremesheen Glass)
• Petite Indulgence Bright blue-pink (Cremesheen Glass)
• Dressed to Dazzle Pink tinted with silver sparkle (Dazzleglass)
All the shades are really sheer and you will have to reapply after every 3 hrs, however I love the consistence which is very gel-like and has a vanilla flavor.
This whole set is a great value for your money.
My score – 5/5

MAC Prep + Prime Beauty Balm Compact Review

Happy New Year!! I know I’m late in wishing everyone. I was very busy as my parents, my sister and most important my baby niece was here to spend the New Year with me and my husband.

The first product of the year that I’m going to review is the new MAC Prep + Prime Beauty Balm Compact with SPF 30. I bought this over the weekend and the reason why I bought it was that I loved the packaging.

So let’s start with packaging – its nice shiny sparkly black. It comes with a mirror and a sponge applicator. I’m not a big fan of the sponge applicator, so I use a foundation brush to apply this bb cream/compact. I love that it’s a compact and can be used as a on the go foundation/compact. Easy to carry.

The product is beautiful, an amazing texture and doesn’t feel heavy. It helps makes my pores less visible and evens out my skin. I do not like a lot of coverage, it’s translucent and at the same time evens out the skin and adds a glow to the skin.

I love this as an everyday cream/foundation. I have the color medium dark and it matches my skin tone perfectly. I have received so many complements in the last 2 days, since the time I have started using it. It gives a very nice natural glow to my skin.

I give it 5/5 as a score.
