MAC originally relaunched their past favs and most wanted shades that have been discontinued and made it a new collection.

Going through the shades.. I noticed that almost all of them were the “almost everyone can wear” shades (besides the Pigments of course) that had come back. Which makes me think, hmmm. Was MAC too quick to erase them from their line in the first place?

Who’s to say that neutrals and simple colors can’t continue in a line? Well thanks to MAC’s originals, they brought them back. If you’re looking to add to your collection, I recommend these colors from the collection for yourself or your makeup kit if you’re a makeup artist. They work on almost everyone….

MAC Glitter in Reflects Antique Gold

A gold with a touch of olive and khaki in it that’s gorgeous. Perfect for brown eyed and hazel eyed girls.

MAC Eye Shadow in Clue

A perfect soft shimmer taupe gray to add to your collection. Great for fall/winter.

MAC Eye Shadow in Ochre Style

A warm deep gold that has a soft shimmer to it. All eye colors can pull this one off for an evening look. Looks more yellow in the container, but on, it’s much deeper, more antique gold and gorg.

MAC Eye Shadow in A Little Folie

A deep rich burgundy that is just perfect. Most have too much red in them to look good, unless you like looking hung over. This one is a super deep, rich shade that touches more on the side of a rusty chardonnay. Beautiful.

MAC Eye Shadow in Alum

A perfect smoky eye look. The perfect gray to add for a pm look. It’s very blue gray, but with a touch of silver shimmer in it that keeps it from looking too blue. This would be gorgeous on blue eyes…. (darn, I wish I had blue eyes…)

MAC Mascara X

Another aha moment was in trying their X Mascara. If you’re looking for thick lashes, this is it. You know those false lashes that are super black/thick at the base of the lashes and go much thinner towards the ends? Yep, this mascara will do that. They do make them longer but the emphasis is definitely on thicker.

Also too, out of curiosity. I wonder why there were no blushes added to this collection?Hmmmm.
