MAC// archie's girls collection LAUNCH




Whoa whoa whoa I must have been really keeping off the makeup blogs to not notice today was the launch date for North America [?] of MAC's new collection

Archie's Girls is vibrant fun and super nostalgic for those who read them as a child/teen/even now
The collection swatches beautifully and even if you have some dupes who can resist the packaging?

I'm glad they're doing a bit more daring with colors though. Especially Veronica.


My friend freaked out over them and of course she bought something from the collection. 
Got her hands on the Veronica blush which really really suited her darker complexion. It made her cheeks pop and she's super bubbly and fun so the blush made her look that much cuter~ :>
It looks violet in pan but on her it swatches to a deep warm pink.


Her haul today. Pictured if the box, the actual makeup
and a 5 dollar Stitch phone case I talked her into getting.
:9


Here's some snaps of the display at the mall I work at!




I also grabbed a description of the various products. Maybe something will catch your eye?

I myself am staring at the Pearlmatte face powder in 'Veronica's Blush' trying to resist buying it.

Hurry before it runs out! Burnaby's Metrotown MAC has already said they quickly ran out of stock this morning when girls lined up at 10 am [SO EARLY FOR ME] to haul!

Recent gets//quick reviews! [MAC studio careblend, eBay purchases, Fairy Drops Scandal Queen Waterproof Mascara, Solone 30 sec smoody pencil]


I've been so busy with my part time job and trying to enjoy the last of summer that I've almost completely forgotten about this blog!

I guess all I can say is that I'm happy with where I am, and who I'm with.

I've been buying little things here and there to add to my makeup/wardrobe.




This eyeliner formula is soooo smooth and so vibrant. Perfect. Even if my eyes water or I rub them a little they stay put. This swatch was just one pass. IMAGINE.

I bought these here. 

I use them so much for everyday and they really bring life to my eyes even when I'm tired ehehe~ I use it often for cosplay a lot too since it's sooo bright and light catching.




 Needed a new powder/foundation to set my makeup and it's been amazing. Even better than my MUFE Duo matte powder I used to use. This is much kinder to my skin skin and doesn't clog my pores. Goes on super light so not much coverage but still nice!
 I'm wearing the MAC powder and the gel liners in this pic :> Also I love my new spiked headband. I wear it as often as I can. It just adds that certain touch to an otherwise neutral outfit~

I also took advantage of Sasa having a free shipping event to grab Fairy Drops mascara because I've been wanting to try it for ever.
So far it's treating me well! Sometimes it flakes a tiny tiny bit but it's nothing I can't handle since my heroine mascara also flakes. But I must say the length is AMAZING from Fairy Drops. I was not disappointed. It also holds a curl fairly well. AND WATERPROOF.

 Crazy length on my sparse and super straight lashes!!
 And see what I mean about the payoff on these smoody pencils? Super nice.



The boyfriend also bought me these suuuuper cool tights! Sorry for the weird angle but it captured the kirakira ness! They are so unique and I've never seen a design like that before! I'm so grateful he bought these for me. Even if I wasn't willing to spend yet more money on my tights addiction orz||||

They were a very reasonable price and haven't torn yet!




Until next time when I can review more things! :>
