Hi Huneybees, 


The Estée Lauder Companies-owned makeup brand MAC Cosmetics has named K-Pop Idol Lisa Manobal, aka ‘Lisa’, as its new Global Brand Ambassador. The internationally renowned K-pop member of group Blackpink is having a busy year, to say the least. This month alone, Blackpink dropped their first full-length album, released a documentary on Netflix, and now MAC's newest global brand ambassador. 



The big news was announced on Instagram with Lisa swiping on MAC's Powder Kiss Lipstick in Mull It Over with glittery lilac winged liner, blunt bangs, and ultra-long silver nails. For fans who are interested to achieve this signature look, here's a list of the MAC products used...

MAC Eye Shadow in Stars 'N' Rockets

With a high pigment load, this eye shadow gives a subversive sweep of purple.



MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15

Lightweight with a natural matte finish, this foundation offers buildable coverage in 63 shades (Lisa wears N18). 



MAC Prep + Prime Lip
This transparent base lends moisture and smooths the skin's surface before a swipe of lipstick.

MAC Powder Kiss Lipstick in Mull It Over
Matte without being moisture-sapping, this ruddy-peach lipstick gives a plush hit of color.

MAC Dazzleshadow Liquid in Diamond Crumbles

Holographic with pink pearl, this high-gloss liquid shadow stays put through the night. 

MAC Extra Dimension Skinfinish

This highlighter dusts on for an incandescent pop; Lisa wears the peachy shade Show Gold.

MAC Brushstroke 24-Hour Liner

A precision-tip liquid liner (shown in Brushblack) is the default for a long-wearing cat-eye.

MAC Eye Shadow in Espresso

This soft brown is a neutral contour for the lid - or a starting point for adventurous looks. 

MAC Dazzleshadow Liquid in Panthertized

A shimmery black flecked with green and purple pearl, this eye gloss delivers a hit of drama.

Colourful Makeup This Fall With M.A.C x Rossy de Palma Collection

| |
Hi Huneybees,


I've been running around like a busy little bumble bee, that I almost missed this new collection by M.A.C. Inspired by the uniqueness of Spanish actress/model - Rossy de Palma, comes this colorful collection that will definitely paint a rainbow for you this Autumn.


Rossy de Palma’s strikingly unique, Picasso-esque beauty and uninhibited, creative soul has made her one of Spanish art, fashion and cinema’s most original muses and collaborators. Now, her joie de vivre is captured in her M∙A∙C colour collection. Special packaging takes on new meaning with inspiration drawn from Rossy’s romantic glamour, and palettes featuring her eyes, nose and lips come together to form an invincible Cubist vision.


Due to Rossy's striking profile, she has always been known as a "Picasso painting come to life", being the muse of designer Jean Paul Gaultier and acclaimed film director Pedro Almodóvar. Her je ne sais quoi has been captured in this collection with a special holographic packaging that draws attention to her unique style and also a Cubist style reminiscent of her gorgeous features.


So, let's take a look at the collection.




For Lipsticks, there are supposedly 4 shades, but 1 special shade is only available online. What's in stores is Rossy (dirty mauve purple), Self Esteem (bright clean red) and Frenesi (bright red fuchsia).


Other than the individual lipsticks, there is also the Indimenticabile Lip Gloss Trio, where you can play with lip colours, mix and match them for different looks. 



Featuring Soft Dream (bright fuchsia pink), Plum Bite (a deep plum) and Velvet Me (cherry red). 



For cheeks, they have 2 daring Powder Blush shades - Pink Desire (dirty blue pink) and Red Envy (dirty red) that will give your cheeks that pop of colour whilst complimenting the eyeshadow shades in the collection.



To achieve those high cheeks and nose bridge, there is the Nose Pose Cream Colour Base Duo. Featuring Africa Dream (soft yellow nude) and Morocco (soft warm chocolate). It is a cream base, so I wasn't very keen on this palette though, but the shade works great for light to medium tan skin tones.

Here's the highlight - Colours on the Verge Veluxe Pearlfusion Shadow. There are 5 shades in this palette and I'm loving every single one!


Pinky (bright pink), Money (soft green with pearl), Deep (dark blackened navy), Charcoal (black with multi-colored pearl) and Smoke (soft lilac).


The other eyeshadow palette is the My Moon Eyeshadow Duo, that features Luna Llena (frosty white) and Luna Noire (matte black). 


Luna Llena makes a good highlighting shade and I use Luna Noire for eyeliner too!



Lastly, we have the Glitters that are definitely party ready. Get them either in - Red (vibrant shimmering red) or Reflects Turquatic (sparkling bright blue that's so mermaid inspiring)!




So, which ones are you eyeing on? Be ready to channel your inner chic Spanish actress and indulge in this sophisticated, bold collection this Fall. 💋

[What's New] M.A.C Cosmetics Wants You To "Join The TRIBE. Feel The VIBE."

| |
Hi Huneybees,


M.A.C Cosmetics is definitely upping their game this month with so many launches and tonight, they will be debutting their Vibe Tribe collection at Ngee Ann City, just nice for our too-close-to-equator warmth. 


Sound and self-expression converge in the vast canvas of the desert. Lose control and imagine yourself in lips painted reckless shades of red and coral, or a flash of gold. Let your eyes escape reality in teal, cobalt, mandarin and charcoal, as free-spirited nails glisten in succulent tangerine and the perfect, buttery nude. Abandon control in online-exclusives Rio Grande Romance and Painted Canyon. Feel the vibe


Bright contrasting corals and turquoise colours with nude base tones and gold accents screams beach party/travel exploration ready with this tribal printed collection. When I saw the collection at the preview, I'm already out of control with the matt soft packaging! 

A demo in how to use colours in our daily makeup by M.A.C makeup artist - Alif Alwee.
At the preview, M.A.C Makeup Artist - Alif Alwee showed us how you can work a little colour into your daily makeup routine, which is just what this collection embodies. Loving every product, sadly the lipsticks photos were corrupted and I can't show ya, but I will update this post again and here's the other swatches... 



For the eyes, we have 2 eyeshadow palettes which are very pigmented - Call of the Canyon that features gold and more neutral earthy tones as well as Wild Horses that has a pop of turquoise amongst the browns. I'm torn between both palettes, not sure which ones to get!



Well, if you are not for coloured eyeshadows and want to play it safe, there's always the Technakohl Eye Liners in Broque, Take The Plunge and Snowed In for you to play with. These pencils glide on easily and I love the little glitter sheen.



For cheeks, we are looking at natural glow with light shading and contouring. There's the Cream Colour Base for the little sheen highlights on your cheek bones, or for a little cheek colour, try the Powder Blush - Modern Mandarin



But the highlight and my must get from the collection has got to be the Gleamtones Powder in Aztec-inspired pie palette. This shiny palette is good for bronzing when you picked out the individual colours or swril around for hightlighting purposes.


And speaking of swirling, you will need these brushes 125 Split Fibre Dense Face Brush and 127 Split Fibre Dense Face Brush for these brushes features 50/50 split of natural and synthetic fibres which allows application and smoothing of products as you sweep across your face.

In the middle is also the 228/226 Double Ended Brush that features the Mini Shader Brush on 1 side and a Small Tapered Blending Brush on the other. This brush will be great to have in your travelling cosmetic bags!


For those who likes to play with nails, there's 2 shades of Nail Polish to play with. I find the colours pretty common to find around, but the bottle designs might just sway my decision. The 2 shades are Skin (Nude) and Blazing Hot (Bright Orange).


Surprise! There's a part 2 to the Vibe Tribe collection! 


We will get to have 2 matt bronzer - Bronzing Powder in Matt Bronze and Refined Golden, as well as 2 shimmering ones that had an embossed pattern - Studio Sculpt Defining Bronzing Powder in Golden Rinse and Delphic.


There's also a bright orange blush in the midst, perhaps to make up for the lack of the Bronzing Powder - Firebrush that's and online exclusive. It will play a strong contrast against the turquoise shades on your eyes.


Ok! Time for me to go get my beaded feathers ready for the debut party later.
Come grab it first hand at Ngee Ann City tonight or wait till 20th May where they will launch the collection islandwide.
