MAC x Ellie Goulding Collection | Swatches & Review (Partial)

I remember when I saw the promo shot for this collection, I immediately freaked out. Not only am I a huge fan of Ellie Goulding, but this collection was pretty much made for me. (How stunning does Ellie look in this photo?)

It’s basically a neutral lovers dream and the pieces are so wearable and perfect for every day. This collection launched TODAY on maccosmetics.com, Nordstrom.com & Macys.com.

Halcyon Nights Face Kit – Four warm toned shadows and a Cream Colour Base.

Shades include : Starry Eyed, You My Everything, Saddle & Hanging On | Cream Colour Base : This Love

I love that this palette has four GORGEOUS shades that work so well together. The shades are all warm toned and were very pigmented. I’m usually not a fan of cream and powder products together in one palette, but the fact that the cream base has it’s own compartment is pretty awesome.

Swatches – Starry Eyed, You My Everything, Saddle, Hanging On

Powder Blush / Bronzer Duo in Hold My Breath – I am LOVING this duo! The blush is absolutely stunning and the bronze is the perfect shade of warmth for my skintone. I do wish the pans were split evenly though. Both shades were very pigmented and easy to apply on the skin.

Lustre Drops in Pink Rebel – I believe these are in the permanent MAC line up and were re-promoted for this collection. These are actually my first Lustre Drops and I LOVE them! I added a few drops on my cheek bones and blended it in to give me a soft highlight. You can also add a few drops to your foundation.

Cremesheen Lipsticks in Only You & Without Your Love – The cremesheen formula is my FAVORITE from MAC so I was thrilled to see both of these. I love that these shades are easy to throw on during the day and really go well with a warm, bronzed eye look. They are mildly pigmented, but you do need 2 or 3 swipes to really build up the color on your lips

Only You : Muted Mid Toned Coral

Without Your Love : Warm Seashell Pink

PatentPolish in Revved : Described as a creamy peach, these PatentPolishes are perfect for layering with the lipsticks. I haven’t given the PatentPolish line much of a try, but I am definitely thinking of picking up a few more shades as I really love the formula of this one!

Overall, I’m pretty much obsessed with this collection and may even pick up a few other pieces to complete the collection! It’s definitely right up my alley and represents Ellie’s style and look perfectly.

    This is only the second collection from MAC this year that I’m very attracted to. I really like the lighter of the two lipsticks.

    December 15, 2015 at 6:32 pm

    These shades are my jam so I def want to pick something up but the looks so dupeable and the lip colors aren’t unique. Maybe I’ll go for the bronzer/blush.

  21. Aleya Bamdad says

    December 15, 2015 at 6:33 pm

    Neutral beauty products after my own heart.

  24. Lisa Heath says
