Swatchfest: MAC Punk Couture Mini Haul

In December of 2013, Mac Cosmetics launched a few new collections: Magnetic Nude, Huggable Lipcolour, and Punk Couture. Out of those, (of course) Punk Couture piqued my interest the most.

Punk’s rebel spirit has a visual language all its own. Punk Couture: Eye Shadow x 4 builds fierce eyes with extreme black, silvered amethyst, nude matte and blackened plum. Also includes Haute & Naughty Too Black Lash, Penultimate Eye Liner and Eye Kohl. Neon Pigments instigate a chaos of colour, Retro Matte Lipstick attracts in true black, midnight violet, fig and oxblood, while Cremesheen Glass shimmers with golden and purple pearl. Black, beaded Nail Lacquers are pure, polished punk.

I managed to get my hands on a lipstick (before they all got snatched up) and a cremesheen glass.







Studded Kiss (0.1oz) comes in the iconic MAC lipstick tube and retailed for $15.00. It's not my favorite lipstick packaging, but it's small and sleek so I do like it. Unfortunately, this color is no longer available for purchase on MAC's website, but you may still be able to find it at a local store.

Jet Boy is a cremesheen glass. It comes in a rounded tube that contains 0.09 fl oz with a doe foot applicator and retails for $20.00. The tube is transparent, so you're able to see the shade and is made of a really sturdy plastic.

Although I would've liked to have been able to buy everything from this line, I'm happy with my first purchase! I'm really excited to see how Jet Boy looks over different lipsticks because I don't think I'd want to wear it all on its own. Plus, Studded Kiss is just an awesome oxblood color. I think that even though all of the other lipsticks have sold out that I'll be getting the two other cremesheen glasses as well as all of the pigments.

What do you think of the Punk Couture collection? Did you get anything from it yet?
