The M•A•C Maleficent Collection

The Maleficent Collection by M·A·C hits standalone M·A·C stores this week. The film, starring Elle Fanning and Angelina Jolie is the untold story of the wicked villain Maleficent who cursed Sleeping Beauty into her long nap. It released in the U.S on the weekend of May 30 and dominated the box-office. I haven’t seen it yet but I am dying to! It has been receiving fairly good reviews and I love origin stories and Angelina Jolie! The fact that Lana Del Rey did a song for the soundtrack helps too ;)

Anyway, the limited edition collection is inspired by Angelina Jolie’s depiction of the main character Maleficent. There are really classic colours and formulas in the collection but they have this dark edginess to them. If you know me, you know I am SOLD! The packaging is gorgeously dark, adorned with black wings which I am to believe are a huge part of the story.

This is what you can find in the collection:

LIPSTICK (ZAR210)

TRUE LOVE’S KISS - a clean bright red (amplified)

PRO LONGWEAR LIPGLASS (ZAR200)

ANTHURIUM - a clean bright red

PRO LONGWEAR LIP PENCIL (ZAR210)

LASHES – ZAR140

36 Lash

30 Lash

I have the Flaming Rose nail lacquer and it is the perfect, sultry and classy red. Once I purchase from the collection I will do some photos and swatches. I really want to get the lipstick (of course) Nocturnelle lacquer and perhaps the eye-shadow quad. I was hoping there would be a makeup mirror or something more permanent that I could keep forever. I missed out on the Disney Villains M·A·C Collection so I feel like this is my second chance!

Have you watched Maleficent yet? Will you be getting anything from the collection?

Until next time

Love and sparkles
