M.A.C.’s new Chill Collection

Aly Walansky — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 04:27:04 +0000

I have temporarily escaped to warmer climates (re: hanging with my gal pals…I mean…work colleagues in sunny California).

However, after just a few gleeful days, I will have to (mournfully) return to the winter chill of New York.

As the temperature drops, my favorite cosmetics company, M.A.C., has released a new beauty barometer sharing the season’s hot new cool. It shows the light snowflake lips of Naked Frost. Eyes sculpted in Arctic Grey, warmed with deep black velvety strokes of new Penultimate Eye Liner.

It’s pretty awesome. This season’s hottest runway looks show us graduated smoky eye (a gradient of silver/gray to black) with cool-toned frosty pink lips. You’ll find all these shades in this collection, along with several others that will inspire heating up your look among the arctic chill.

And guess what…this shades look pretty hot out here in sunny California, as well!

“Hallo Possums!”: The new Dame Edna Collection for MAC

Aly Walansky — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 01:33:17 +0000

At first I thought the MAC-Dame Edna combination was ever-so-slightly weird. I mean, when was the last time any of us looked at Dame Edna and thought beauty icon????

Follow my beauty regime possums, and you’ll never be cosmetically challenged.

- Dame Edna

Well, that’s high promise: I am a beauty editor, and I’m cosmetically challenged just about every time I ready myself for a hot night out!

That said, I am a little fearful of embodying the beauty advice of a drag queen.

It’s a pretty comprehensive line though, all in mystical fairy-dust-like shades in a very retro lavender casing that is topped off with a signature red logo based on a pair of Dame Edna’s glases.

The line includes two shades of nail polish, a highlight powder, two eye shadow trios, three lipsticks and three lip glosses. Longtime MAC fans may see a lot of similarity between these shades and the Heatherette collection – but I’m loving it! The frosty pastels will really complement anything you acquire from their Chill looks. (More on that coming very soon!)

Here’s the Dame Edna Collection lineup:

Lipstick - $14
Gladiola Matte mid-tone blue pink
Coral Polyp Creamy mid-tone coral
Kanga Rouge Creamy dark blue red

And when you’re done chuckling, do not forget about good ol MAC. They have had some FABULOUS collections out this summer and are moving right on into fall. There IS no better eyeshadow than MAC. Don’t get these goofballs make you think otherwise.

Here are the first three videos in the series – keep an eye on the MAC channel on YouTube to see when the other two make it out. And put your coffee down before you watch. These guys are nutso.
