MAC Dare to Wear with Lady Gaga.

Much like the M·A·C collaboration C Shock with Eve three years ago, they have created a bold, bright and surprisingly pop beautiful collection with their very own Viva Glam spokesperson Lady Gaga. Just as Lady Gaga inspires and shocks, so do these shades of lipglass and eye shadows. This is Dare to Wear.

M·A·C says:

"Our own Lady Gaga mobilized legions of you to DARE TO WEAR…and it’s created a wave of energy, excitement and outrageousness all around the world! Join the brigade of loud-and-proud who daily dare to declare their own individuality. High-powered pigment and holographic pearl create a crazy-intense, shine-saturated gloss, combined with Pop Eye Shadow shades, as over-the-top as Lady G Live! Inter-dimensional one-coat colour on the first stroke means there’s always an encore! Creamy soft application grabs and sculpts, gel structure molds and has a bouncy feel – pure exhilaration, it’s a personal high! More and more of you, every minute, every hour, every day, not afraid to DARE TO WEAR. Bravo!"

Feast your eyes on the beauty.

I am quite smitten with a few of the eye shadow shades and all of the lipglasses. While they are all highly pigmented, they are perfect when applied with a soft hand, unless you dare to go bold. You would be surprised at how beautiful a soft line with one of these bold shadows looks over a dark eyeliner. Look to Crazy Cool and Shock-a-holic for the perfect purple smokey eye, which is so on trend for the fall.

MAC On the Scene Cremesheen Glass.

I have a favorite summer lipgloss that will be sure to cross over into other seasons. I've been wearing it for about a month now, and just bought another tube of it. Yes - it is love. What is the lipgloss I am speaking of? It is no other than MAC Cosmetics Cremesheen Glass called On the Scene, from the MAC Get In the Groove Collection.

On the Scene is described as a Light Coral Beige. I describe it as the perfect creamy peach gloss. I wear it alone most of the time, but have been experimenting with using it over different lipstick shades too. While it is almost a nude when used over lipstick, it actually tones down or "cream-alizes" a more vibrant color.

Check out On the Scene at MAC now, before it is gone!
