New MAC Collections: Starflash & Lustre Twins
Sometimes I just can’t keep up with all the releases that beauty powerhouse MAC comes out with each year, but I definitely have to try, right? And now, yet another collection (or two) has arrived on counters from one of my favorite beauty brands, Starflash and Lustre Twins.
After the experience I had at the counters with Electroflash, I was feelin’ like I was all MAC’d out. That is until I took a look at these Lustre Twins lippies. I cannot get enough of lippies, so I think I’m going to have to muster up some nerve and take on the hater MUA at my local Nordie’s counter in order to get a peak at Lustre Twins. My days have been extremely busy these days so I apologize for the lack of swatches!
What I will tell you, though, is that MAC’s lustre formulas are my fave lipstick formulas. Lustre Twins gives us nine new duo-shades of this fun lip color set. I can’t wait to get my hands on a couple of these - it’s like 2 for 1! This collection also gives us 3 more pretty limited edition nail lacquers.
MAC shadows are really awesome — reasonably priced, nice texture, and they’ve got pretty much every color under the rainbow. There’s always a few colors that work for me in every collection (but then again, I’m not that picky). Starflash gives us muted versions of those vibrant summer colors and would be awesome as we transition from summer into fall.
I’ve got my eye on Mink & Sable, a frosty olive green, and Smoke & Diamonds, a dirty taupe shade. I’m so ready for sultry fall colors, baby!
Do you have your eye on these babies? Let me know which Little Twin Stars you’re craving

I am going to pass on these collections and save my $$ for Cult of Cherry. I have heard that a lot of these colors are dupes of other MAC products that had previously come out. I guess they are good for a MAC newbie.

I love the new MAC lacquers…especially the silver one. That’s what I’m setting my eyes on.

Hi Marisol,
Cult of Cherry looks really beautiful — I just got a preview on it last week that I can’t wait to post about! I’m a totally a MAC newbie since I just got into it this past year starting with their N collection (still my fave collection from this year!)
Do you have any plans today? I’m heading out to attempt tennis this afternoon. Hope I can hit the ball at least once so I don’t look like an idiot.

Hi Butterflydiary,
The MAC lacquers are kind of hit or miss for me depending on the formula. The silver color from this collection is $$$$$ Yes; I got it when Heatherette came out. The color is totally fun! Consistency is not my cup of tea, though.
Let me know what you think if you nab yourself a bottle
