M.A.C. Art of the Eye: Elegant and Exotic

Here we go with another M.A.C. collection only this time it's strictly for eyes and I do find it appealing and I must say, I'm a little excited about it. Let's admit it, the latest, Baking Beauties wasn't that great. I did see the Pearlmate Face Powder compacts, which where by the way the only items I was interested in, over the weekend and they where definitely so so for me.

The look of M.A.C. Art of the Eye is exotic and luxurious. Seductive, it seems to channel Scheherazade, the legendary Persian queen, storyteller of One Thousand and One Nights also known as Arabian Nights.






Five single eye shadows:


Gameela, Farasha, Banafsajii, Hajar Karim, Parrot


Masat Al Lail Eye Shadow x4

Carbon, Rondelle, Watt, Gentle Fume 


Rimal Dahabia Eye Shadow x4

Shroom, Soft Brown, Beauty Burst, Najm el Lail


Three Chromagraphic Pencils and a Khol Power Eye Pencil

 Process Magenta, Hi-Def Cyan, Landscape Green
Khol Power Eye Pencil in Feline


Liquid Eye Liner and Opulash

Liquid Eye Liner in Boot Black, Opulash in Sama 
and Opulash Optimum Black


Glitter in Gold and Antique Gold


Fluidline Brow Gelcreme in Deep Dark Brunette


4 Lash


The single eye shadows seem to be highly pigmented, Banafarjii, the blue shade, looks gorgeous! I'll be curious to see the quads when they hit the stores on May 2nd. They are available now through M.A.C. website here.

Now this is more my style as far as collections go! More grown up, it shows more attention to details and I do think these colors will be quite a smash once the mercury rises.

I know Linda this one looks positively gorgeous and you're right about the quad, that one also caught my eye.
The eyeshadow quads look interesting but I am not sure anything else is really floating my boat here. You are right tho, this is far more grown up than say the recent Archies Girls collection. They seem to go from one extreme to the other. I really want to have a look at the Extra Dimension collection and would love to get my hands on 'Embrace Me' but it seems to be pretty much sold out everywhere. Having said that, I guess I don't actually need any more makeup............

You're right Stacey, they do tend to go from one extreme to the other. The Extra Dimension collection is beautiful. I hesitated last weekent, I liked Skinfinish in Definitely Defined. I really liked the texture. Now you're probably right as far as your makeup needs are concerned. :D
Ohhh the prettiness! Love the quads!

Aren't they nice basics? Can't wait to swatch for color and texture.
