Mac To The Beach haul part 1
I ordered my favourites from Mac's To The Beach collection on Tuesday immediately after they were available online, and my little black box has just arrived with the following goodies:
2 x Marine Life Highlight powder
Hipness blush
Thrills lipstick
Splashing lipglass
Yes, I had to get two of the highlight powder because otherwise I just wouldn't use it. I feel it's just too pretty to destroy, and I'm quite happy to pay £19.50 for another one. Hey, I paid for two of Chantecaille's Protected Paradise palettes (both face and eyes) and they are a lot more expensive (£80 each!). I know, I have a problem, lol!
After the initial confusion about release dates, I can now confirm that To The Beach will be arriving on the counters next Thursday (13th May), however, the collection is available online if you can't wait until then (the highlight powder is sold out already though!). As usual, free standard delivery on order over £50!
I will go to my counter on Thursday to check out the rest of the collection, I'm pretty sure I will pick up another lipstick and/or lipglass (or two!) and maybe an eyeshadow as well.
See photos of my goodies below!

The packaging is so cute!
ReplyDeleteOoh Ellie, what did you get?
ReplyDeleteI got the highlight powder, Lazy Days lipstick, Sun Rush Lustre Drops and Float on By eye kohl. I think the lipstick is my favourite!
ReplyDeleteI need to check out the other lipsticks and lipglosses and the eyeshadows in person! Can't wait for Thursday when I can go to my counter to see it all. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the swatches! I thought the collection was supposed to come out on the 27th. Looks like it's already out!
ReplyDeleteIt's out in the UK and most of Europe, but not in the US. Not sure where you are.
ReplyDeleteOh im so jealous. I didnt managed to get that seahorse highlighter, it sold out before i realised, sooo gutted.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, you are my guru. I love your collection.
Aaw, I'm sorry to hear that. :( It is such a beautiful powder.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the lovely compliment, I'm really flattered. :)
Hopefully with a help of a friend ill get one from Europe but im seriously considering travelling 40 miles to the nearest counter ;-)
ReplyDeleteyour blog and collection is absolutely stunning. unfortunately, it generated quite a few needs i didnt know of ;-)
Lol, reading beauty blogs is definitely one reason why my collection has grown to this size! :)
ReplyDeleteHope you get to buy one of them, have you checked MUA for a swap maybe?
i swear - have not seen bigger collection than yours anywhere and i spend vast majority of my time going through beauty blogs ;-) plus your collection is the most to my taste, i love dior eyeshadows and meteorites.
ReplyDeleteahh i havent checked MUA i will definately have a look there if my friend is unable to get me one, brilliant idea, thank you :-)
Do you think Hipness is worth getting if I already have Instant Chic?
ReplyDeleteHi, I think it is, but in all fairness I don't think Hipness is that much different from Instant Chic. It is brighter and pinker, and I would probably choose it over Instant Chic myself. Please check out my new post for comparison swatches, hope it helps.
ReplyDeletewow you got these so fast! to the beach just posted on the canadian website tonight and marine life is sold out already. I think everyone is nuts over this, but it's just overspray. It's pretty to look at though.
