Mac Peacocky Looks Part 1

This week I'm going to show you some looks that I've done using my new Mega Metal eyeshadows from Mac's Peacocky collection. In this first installment I've got two looks, one purple and one pink.

First up is the purple look I created using Mating Call, Plum Noir and Peek-at-You and also Flaunting It Kissable Lipcolour. I wasn't sure how the lips would work with this look, I think I'd prefer light pink lips with it, but this isn't too bad.


To create this look I used:

Eyes:
Barbara Daly for Tesco eyeshadow primer
Mac Mating Call eyeshadow all over lid and above crease
Mac Plum Noir eyeshadow in outer corner and in crease
Mac Peek-at-You eyeshadow below browbone
Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencil in Lust on lower lashline
Guerlain Le 2 Mascara in Black
Mac Brow Set in Show Off

Face:
Guerlain Meteorites Pearls face primer
Givenchy Photo'perfection Foundation in #04 Perfect Vanilla
Chantecaille White Tiger face powder
Mac Azalea Blossom Blush Ombre

Lips:
Mac Flaunting It Kissable Lipcolour

Mac Peacocky Haul

I know I'm quite late with this since the collection came out nearly 2 weeks ago and as we all know that means most of it is probably sold out now. But I've finally got around to taking photos and actually doing some looks with the eyeshadows, so I thought I'd post this anyway.


I ended up buying 9 of the eyeshadows and 4 Kissable Lipcolours. It's not too bad by my standards, but since the eyeshadows are a larger size (like the mineralize ones or the Tartan Tale ones were) they cost a lot more than normal eyeshadows, and also the lipcolours aren't cheap at £16 each. So it all adds up. Anyway...

Find out which ones I bought and see another photo after the jump!

Mac Peacocky Mega Metals Eyeshadow in Mating Call

Mac's new collection Peacocky is due to launch in the UK on Thursday 3rd February (and online on Tuesday 1st February) and I have here one of the Mega Metal eyeshadows in the colour Mating Call. (Please note, although it says sample on it, I actually bought this on eBay, it's not a free sample - for me anyway.) It's a light purple with a pink tinge to it (not quite duochrome, but you can see how the pink shows up in some of the swatches). It has a metallic sheen to it, but it's not shimmery or glittery at all.


I have read in reviews that the texture of these eyeshadow is creamy, which I can't really say about this one, it actually feels pretty hard in the pan. The brush doesn't kick up any powder (it's certainly not powdery), but it does pick up a good amount of colour which then applies and blends beautifully. Although it's not a very unique shade, it is very pretty and I'm looking forward to checking out the rest of the collection. These shadows are a larger size (2.2 g) than normal Mac eyeshadows, they are in fact the same pan size as Mac blushes and mineralize eyeshadows, plus the Tartan Tale single eyeshadows that came out last December. I believe they will be priced at £15.50 each.
