Top to Bottom
- Enchanted One
- Mystical
- Goddess Of The Sea

Enchanted One is described as a mid tone neutral pink with a matte finish. Enchanted one shows up more of a peachy nude on my nc40 skin tone. At first glance it reminded me of Mac Yash lipstick, I compared them two together Yash is more beige than Enchanted one. Even though its a matte finish lipstick the texture isn't like the usual Mac matte lipsticks its very creamy and lasted about 5-6 hours on me. I did pick up a backup for Enchanted One I was confused between Mystical and Enchanted One. I just went for Enchanted One you cant really go wrong with nude.

Mystical is described as a mid tone creamy rose with a creme sheen finish. I'm not really a big fan of frosty or creme sheen finish lipstick but this beautiful Rosy brown lipstick is a great everyday shade. Its quiet sheer but it is build able it average about 5-6 hours of wear on me and it wasn't drying.

Goddess Of The Sea is described as a dark vibrant violet with a creme sheen finish. Goddess Of The Sea is more opaque than Mystical its a beautiful berry shade would work great during fall. This one lasted about 4-5 hours of wear on me and it wasn't drying.

Mac Seduced At Sea Extra Dimension Blush

- Seduced At Sea Blush  ( Price $27.50 6.5 g )

Seduced At Sea blush is described as a neutral plum with some golden shimmer. Seduced At Sea looks more of a peachy beige with some shimmers. This is my very first extra dimension blush and I'm sold I love the texture its so smooth and very easy to blend. I love the pigmentation of this blush it can be a great everyday blush. It lasted about 7-8 hours on me I think this is going to be my new favorite blush. It can be paired with Mac Melon pigment on the eyes a perfect dewy summer look.

Mac Refined Golden Bronzing Powder

- Refined Golden Bronzing Powder ( Price$27.50 10g )

Mac Refined Golden Bronzing Powder is described as a finely spun golden with soft pearl. Its quiet pigmented it comes of more of a medium brown with a very subtle barely there shimmer. I think this bronzing powder is great for tan skin ladies it might come of a little orangey on pale skin tone. I don't usually contour with shimmery bronzer but once you apply this bronzer you cant really notice the shimmers. Refined Golden has been on my list for ages I'm glad I finally got it it will be a great bronzing powder for warming up the skin.

Overall
I'm really impressed with this collection its a hit with packaging and the products. I did skip on the eye shadows cause nothing caught my eye I didn't find the colors unique. I'm very happy with the blush and bronzer both will work great on my tan skin. I do wish there was no frosty lipstick in this collection cause I wanted more of those gorgeous packaging lipstick tubes. If you were to pick only a few items from this collection I suggest for you to check out the extra dimension blushes, Enchanted One and Mystical lipstick. Some of the products from this collection might not work on deeper skin tone I think it will be best to stop by Mac swatch the products and see what suits you better.

  1. I think the unique packaging is what has most of us buzzing! I only bought one of the lip glosses - Seducing Siren or something. I almost bought the Refined Golden bronzer, but then I find that it looks very similar to a Chanel bronzer that I have, and I didn't want a dupe. I like your choices - great photos.

  2. Thanks You're right because of the packaging I bought a backup for Enchanted one. I must admit mac did an amazing job with the packaging which drove all of us to the nearest mac to grab at least one or two item from this collection.
