MAC Surf, Baby! Collection

MAC always comes out with a big summer collection and they did not disappoint this time with Surf Baby. There are many products that came out with this collection including 4 lip sticks and lip glasses, as well as 5 eyeshadows, two eyeliners, 2 crushed metallic eyeshadow stacks, and much more.

I bought a few things that I thought really stood out.

Surf, Baby! Lipstick in Hibiscus (Cremesheen) US $15.50

The Studio Careblend/Pressed Powder is a product that MAC has brought out before in past collections. The formula of the powder is very soft and almost airy, and blends beautifully onto the skin. There was another color that was much lighter that would look great on ivory complexions. The price is quite expensive ($28) but this is my favorite product out of the whole collection. This goes without saying but it is great for contouring the cheeks since it is a matte finish. Lush Light Bronze is described as a mid tone rosy pink brown.

The other bronzer I got, Solar Riche which MAC describes as a midtone deep orange brown, is also very nice and is mostly matte with a tiny bit of shimmer that goes largely unnoticed on the face.

Lastly the lipstick is the perfect coral red which is about medium opacity and is very easy to wear. This would be great for women who are hesitant to wear bright red since Hibiscus is a more subdued option. Hibiscus is described as bright orange coral.
