M∙A∙C Archie's Girls Betty Collection.

 

This has got to be one of the most anticipated M∙A∙C collections this year and it does not disappoint. M∙A∙C Archie's Girls is full of fun new makeup that satisfies both the girl next store, Betty; and the boyfriend stealer - I'm talking to you Veronica. I still don't get what they saw in Archie!

I've always been Team Betty and I lusted after her cutesie girl charm as she innocently batted her baby blues. It is the Betty Collection that totally suits me too - and I'm not talking personality. These super fun colors are perfect for my complexion.

M·A·C VIVA GLAM Nicki 2 Swatches

While the lipglass is actually very wearable, especially over a brighter lipstick to tone it down, I can't see many people beside Nicki wearing the lipstick. It is pretty chalky looking and flat on the lips. I was hoping it didn't look on the lips as it does in the tube, but it does.

The new VIVA GLAM Nicki 2 is available now at all M·A·C locations and online at maccosmetics.com.

Urban Decay Glinda Palette Photos and Swatches.

The Glinda Palette comes boxed in a really nice box and includes a Get the Look card. There are six shadows housed in Urban Decay's "Create Your Own Palette" tin, with space for a 24/7 Glide on Eye Pencil in Rockstar. The set also includes Super-Saturated High Gloss Color in Glinda, a light sheer nude.

  • Oz - Gold with gold glitter and silver with silver glitter
  • South - Warm pale gray shimmer with silver micro-glitter

Urban Decay Glinda Palette Swatches

Out of both the "Oz The Great and Powerful" palettes, Glinda is my favorite. The look it creates is so soft and pretty, yet unexpected with a lot of pink. It is like the look I used to create when I was about 25 years younger; frosty pinks, taupe, purples and blues. I love it!

My eyes wearing the Glinda colors as instructed on the "Get the Look" card.

Urban Decay The Glinda Palette retails for $49.00 at urbandecay.com and Sephora.
