MAC holiday 09 collections hit stores

Ohhhh holiday, not only are you my favorite time of the year, you are my favorite makeup season. And I have been aesthetically binging on pictures from the MAC Cosmetics holiday collection all afternoon. MAC manages to really reinvent holiday every year, with a pleasingly festive color palette and suitably sparkly campaigns and packaging.

Shown above is the Magic, Mirth and Mischief Collection. It's meant to evoke "Unstuffy parties, impromptu rendezvous, the informal chic of Festive Fantasia or an intimate evening a deux."

More pictures and details of the collection after the jump!

This collection includes lots of gifting ideas: three brush bags each going for $49.50, two lip bags that each include a lip stick, Dazzleglass and a lip pencil for $36, and two eye bags with a pigment, Fluidline, Zoom Lash mascara, and an eye liner brush, also $36.

There's also some new lip, eye and face kits. Some people find palettes annoying - like there are always colors or products they don't end up using. But personally I love them and they're generally my favorite part of holiday collections! I'm particularly loving the four eye kit options which each include six shadows for $36. The lip kits offer two lip sticks and lip glass for $22.50, and face kits feature three powders for cheeks and highlighting for $38.

There's so much happening with MAC for the winter I can't fit it all in one post. I'll be writing more about a new charity Viva Glam lip kit and the Mischief Makers and Baroque Boudoir sets soon! Everything hit MAC stores this week.

MAC holiday 09 collections hit stores - Comments

  • The collection will be available in the UK in November to all those that asked!

  • K&M is definitely more tailored to the British readership, but we will have stories occasionally geared towards our US audience. I'm working on information on when this MAC collection is available in the UK, and will include that and British pricing in future articles. We want everyone to enjoy all the posts, no matter where they're reading!

  • It would be nice if you guys could make it clear that you're talking about the collection being available in the US only at the moment. Kiss and Makeup originally was founded in the UK, so I think the British readership assume that it's more tailored to them.

  • Actually, Ally, KissandMakeup has a large US readership, and I'm their US writer. So, I didn't copy and paste anything, and the only part of the post directly from the press release is in quotes. We'll have to discuss listing prices in both dollars and pounds to accomodate all our readers.



    Glad you like it pinkchic! Be sure to let us know if you get anything and how you like it!

  • absolutely love MAC!!!! this holiday collection looks gorgeous!
