MAC Pedro Lourenco Collection – Swatches & Review {Partial}

Affiliate Link Press Sample
Happy Saturday! Hope you all had a fun & safe Holiday yesterday! My family & I celebrated Rylan’s 4th birthday (Seriously.. how is he already 4?) Bad news? It rained all day, so the pool party I planned on having got moved indoors.  Not to worry though – Rylan had JUST as fun and we will be taking him out to dinner tonight as well!

Back to the reason we’re here – I have swatches & a review on the MAC Pedro Lourenco collection to share with you! This was a small 11 piece collection which consisted of an eyeshadow quad, blush duo, 4 lipsticks, 2 lipglasses, 2 nail polishes & a cream colour base.  Most of this collection is still available on maccosmetics.com so if you see something you like, definitely grab it while you can! You can also find these items at Nordstrom, Bloomingdales or at your local MAC counter!

The packaging on this collection has a matte black rubberize finish with gold writing. (Much like a NARS packaging) It does get dirty and collect fingerprints VERY quickly though, so I didn’t end up taking photos of the outside of the items.
Pedro Lourenco Powder Blush Duo in Corol – $26

Corol is a powder blush duo that contains one matte blush & one satin.  I did have a bit of an issue with the light coral pink shade as far as picking up product. The blush was a bit stiff, but once you dig off the first layer, the pigmentation gets better. As far as the plum blush goes, I had the opposite problem. It was very silky and far more pigmented than the lighter half. 

Swatches
Lipsticks in True Red & Ruby – $17.50

MAC lipsticks are a hit in every collection and these are no exception! Ruby & True Red are classic & timeless shades that you can wear every season.  Both have an amplified finish, so they really pack the punch in color. And of course, they smell delicious! There is nothing better than that MAC vanilla scent!

Eyeshadow Quad in Nude – $44

Hands down my favorite item in this collection is the eyeshadow quad in ‘Nude’. This is sold out on the MAC site, but I’m sure you can check your local counters for them! (Plus, 2 of the shades are permanent so you can always buy them in pan form and make your own quad!) 
Top Row : Pink Sands (Matte) & All That Glitters (Veluxe Pearl / Permanent)
Bottom Row : Rose Cloud (Matte) & Sable (Frost / Permanent)
I was incredibly impressed with the quality of all 4 of these shades! Usually I’m not a huge fan of limited edition quads from MAC because sometimes the quality isn’t up to par, but holy moly these were BEYOND fantastic!

Overall, I was a huge fan of this collection and really enjoyed how all of the pieces meshed well together. The quad is perfect for everyday use and the red lipsticks are staples in my collection! 
Did you pick up anything from the MAC x Pedro Lourenco collab?
