Collection Remix: Naughty Nauticals

This collection from May 2008 was inspired by colors traditionally worn by sailors with a resort twist. Most of the eyeshadows and quads focused on cool eyes with a glint of gold. While most people were fawning over Bell Bottom Blue and Mutiny pigments all of my attention was on Port Red.

Collection Remix

If you could do a MAC collection over again, which one would it be and what would you change? With all of the collections that are coming out one after another it can be hard to say, but I think that there are certain collections that just jump out at you.

Personally I can think of several collections that I would want to do over again and for different reasons. Some of them I just think would have been more exciting if I knew what I know now at the time of the release. Others, I was just really excited for but they turned out to be completely disappointing. Then there are others that are parts of anniversary collections and I would take elements from the different releases.

I think that once a month I will do a post featuring a "collection remix" which is not only a chance to shop my stash, but also to take a new twist on the different collections.

Ring the Alarm: It's Hourglass Siren

I just got my hands on the famous Hourglass Siren. I have never seen a lip gloss like this. I knew I had to have it when I saw it on Temptalia and even though I was first a little iffy because of the price, when I put it on I knew it was worth every penny.





This gloss is really opaque (I'm not wearing a lip liner or anything)! This is a very yellow based red, which I love. As you can tell this red has much more of a metallic sheen to it whereas Cult of Cherry gloss is more of a pearly red (in my last FOTD). I can't wait to try this over Port Red!

Got the Blues Again

So today I was going out to dinner with my friends so I decided to do something fun. I think this also saves me from the Peacocky collection! :)
