MAC Cosmetics Shines with NEW Overrich Pigments for Fall.
/If only I had a better hand at applying pigments, I would be wearing these beautiful fall colors everyday. MAC's newest pigment collection called Overrich contains the perfect shades for not just Fall, though they are spot on for the season, but for anytime of year.
In case you did not know, MAC's Pigment is a loose powder made of highly pigmented color. It sticks to the skin unlike any other loose powder making application easy (for most - not me!). Pigment can be applied anywhere, most often for eyes, lips, cheeks.
Overrich eight new shades, all in rich-metal hues. They are simply gorgeous. And I swear I am going to get to the huge MAC Pro store when I am in New York next week for Fashion Week to get a lesson on the best way to apply. I know I can do this. I am always in awe of the creations I see others doing with pigment and not only do I need to learn, I really want to. Anyway, here are the shades an descriptions of the colors in this new one.
Blonde's Gold - light tan with gold and white pearl
Heritage Rouge - deep burgundy with red and brown pearl
Copperbeam - rusted brown with red pearl
Vintage Gold - tarnished green with gold pearl
Antique Green - turquoise green with green pearl
Museum Bronze - rich taupe with gold pearl
Mega-Rich - frosty burnt orange with gold pearl
Mauvement - cool taupe with gold pearl
Are you a MAC pigment user? If you are, any application tips would be greatly appreciated.
MAC Cult of Cherry!
/If deep and dark reds, browns and wines are your makeup choice, then this collection is for you.
MAC's Cult of Cherry is luscious, dramatic, undeniably eroticized. Ripened lips, Spiced Hot Chocolate eyes or Illegal Purple nails, combine to seduce with a sweet-and-shock, way-to-go dark. Separates the bitter from the sweet. This drama just gets more delicious.

I must say that the Tempting Quad is gorgeous. That unexpected pop of lime green is subtle, especially when you are a bit light handed at shadow application as I am. And the glosses - there is not a bad one in the bunch. I am not ready for the dark lip again. I was never into it that much, and I am very glad that there are many other options.
Cult of Cherry is a Fall Collection, so you will have to wait a few weeks before it is on counter, but it will be in September - so plan for it now!
