M.A.C Marilyn Monroe Collection

M.A.C have tackled a lot of different collections from fashion designers to Disney and now movie icon Marilyn Monroe . I was skeptical about how they would deiced to package this collection . Take a look at what the collection consists of :

• Silver Screen (veluxe pearl)
• Showgirl (veluxe pearl)

I am loving the direction Mac decided on the packaging . The colors are all slandered Marilyn , tho i wish the would have done a few more eye shadows and different finishes . What do you think , what are you looking forward to picking up and what will you pass on ?

Bite into this summers new TrueBlood line by Tarte

So when i heard about this i wasn't really sure how i felt about it . I love Duwop's Twilight lip and cheek venom They work great, colors are wonderful and i thought it was a great way to market to the twilight fan base (myself included) . Now Tart has come out with a line based on the ever so popular TrueBlood book's and TV show . Here is what they came out with .

I Love Tarte cosmetics , there a GREAT brand and come out with some amazing stuff , but for whatever reason this line just doesn't jump out at me . I don't know if its the packaging I'm not in love with or if its that i feel like i already have these colors . What i do know is that you can pick them up right now on there website as well as Sephora.
