M.A.C Naked Honey Collection

Just a short blog to let you know I got my hands on Naked Honey products today one day earlier than the official release date woohoo lol! I was also lucky enough to be given a sneak peek at some of the upcoming collections (but more about that later).

Naked Honey isn't the most fabulous collection M.A.C has even came out with, it's not going to be for everyone, but if you like the scent of honey and like your neutral colours be sure to check this out.

So from Naked Honey I ended up getting:

Naked Honey Skin Salve - The texture of this is not unlike Vaseline but it's made from beeswax, sunflower oil and other ''natural ingredients". It does smell really good! It can also be used anywhere from lips, cuticles, dry elbows or any dry areas on the skin and I am told it makes a great intensive eye treatment. Hmmm I will test this out and get back to you guys on how I find it.

Naked Honey Fragrance - This is so sweet smelling and seems to stay on my skin for ages. I am not usually a fan of M.A.C fragrances but I got this because I do actually really like the smell. If I don't use it as a perfume I will use it as a room spray. If you like Honeysuckle I would definitely have a sniff of this one.

Honey Light Highlighting Powder
- This is so pretty. It comes with an embossed honeycomb pattern and is a shimmery peachy bronze colour.

Naked Honey Hand and Body Cream - This smells really yummy and absorbed into my hands so easily. Smells great layered with the Naked Honey fragrance.

Eye Shadows in Buckwheat (a gorgeous dark bronze brown), Creme De Miel (a frosty light gold) and Pollinator (a dark peachy pink colour). I have only tried these on the back of my hand so far but I think Buckwheat and Creme De Miel are neutral colours anyone could wear. They look so gorgeous and I can't wait to give these colours a road test tomorrow.

She's A Star Lipglass -This is a sheer shimmery gold shade. Gorgeous colour and great worn alone or over the top of a lipstick.


Things I Like and will probably go back to M.A.C for:

Naked Honey Body Wash -I should have got this too. I adore the smell of honey so I knew I would love it. However I already bought most of the collection and I didn't want to spend any more money!! Isn't it funny how something is on your 'I can live without list' but when you don't get it you can't stop thinking about it and it goes right to the top of your 'I can't live without list'!!

Queen Bee Lipglass
- This is a beautiful peachy apricot shade. I should have got it but I thought at the time I wouldn't use it much. I prefer pink but now I am thinking I need to have this one.

Things I passed on:

Africananimal Fragrance - I personally don't like M.A.C fragrances because they smell a little heavy on alcohol to me. I liked the other Naked Honey Fragrance more so I got that one. Well it is limited edition (she smirks)!!

Buzz Lipglass - Just too dark for me but a gorgeous colour just the same.
