MAC - Fashion Flower

First of all, a warm welcome to all my new followers! I just reached 40 followers, which to me is utterly amazing, and I appreciate each and everyone of you. Thank you for following my blog, and I really hope that you will find some fun reads here on Miss Diorista!

That being said, I'm so excited about this most recent MAC purchase of mine! Isn't that beauty powder pretty?!?

The Fashion Flower collection landed in Iceland last week, and by pure coincidence, I spotted it early enough to grab two of my favourite products from the beautiful collection: Alpha Girl beauty powder, and Ever Hip lipstick. As you can see from the picture, they even aren't all that different in colour :)

Aren't they so pretty? Ever Hip lip colour just screams "summer"!
And how adorable is that flower imprint?!? I've been using this as my blush the past few days, and every time I use it, I take special care not to ruin the pattern :)
Swatches! Those are in direct sunlight, the beauty powder is the upper swatch, the lippie is the lower one.

Different lighting, same swatches. Ever Hip lipstick to the left, Alpha Girl beauty powder to the right. As you can see, Alpha Girl is rather light and I don't think I'd really recommend it for darker skintones (it could turn out a bit ashy or powdery), but it is beautiful on my skin (I'm fair, but a little tan these days :)

So, did you get anything from this collection? Even though you didn't, what where your favourite items? Share in the comments!

Love,
Miss Diorista

P.S. From our recent poll about polish posts, it turns out that most of you like "How I Wore It" posts, but many also like "Reviews + swatches", polish hauls, comparisons and dupes. Thank you to everyone who voted, and I will do my best in the future to write those kind of posts! I've never done a "How I Wore It" post (in fact, you haven't even seen me yet...) so that might be an interesting adventure to take on!

  1. These were some of the best picks from the collection! Ever Hip sold out here before I even had the chance to get my hands on it, sad

  3. @Dovey - I agree. It's so sad when products sell out so quickly :S The same thing happened to me earlier this summer, I missed out on Hibiscus lipstick:(

    @Bec - How nice! It's really pretty, especially for summer!
