MAC Give Me Liberty of London Product Photos and Reviews Part II

Here are some more product photos of the MAC Give Me Liberty of London.  I posted some swatches and reviews HERE, but I will include some more thoughts about this collection in this entry.

As I said, this is probably going to be one of my favorite MAC collections for 2010.  I really like the clean, crisp white background of the design and the old-school birds and flower illustrations.  I have products from a MAC collection that had white packaging, namely MAC Moonbathe, but they don't have the really cute images on the product windows.   Also, I love the color palettes of this collection.  The peaches and violets combined with the greys and dark grey blues truly tickle my fancy.










I have been meaning to depot all my eyeshadows but upon seeing these, I don't know if I will depot Give Me Liberty of London shadows since they are really pretty in the pots.  I am so in love with Birds and Berries and Bough Grey.  Birds and Berries is a beautiful, very pigmented dark green blue that is in the Veluxe Pearl formula, my favorite MAC formula.   Swatches are in another entry (see link above).  Bough Grey is now sold out on the MAC website and almost gone at my MAC counter when I picked up Birds and Berries.  I think I got their last Bough Grey.  This is such a popular color.  It's a mid-tone bluish grey that would be great as a blender or crease color.  It is satin in formula so it would give depth and dimension to the outer V without being too sparkly.  This would be great paired with Birds and Berries.

Free To be is creamy true coral.  I can't wait to use this packed on the lid.  The matte look would truly stand out when paired with my other eye shadows.  Give Me Liberty of London is flat creamy pink.  It hardly showed up on me, so this maybe a bit harder to work with.  Since these two are matte, I suggest a good colored base to really make the colors pop.  I suggest maybe Fresco Rose paint pot or any pink-colored base to bring forth the hues.

I love each one of my Liberty of London lippies.  Peachstock is a MAC Pro color that is now available in this collection.  It is a neutral peach in the satin formula so it is important to prep your lips with balm because this formula can be drying.  However, staying power is great and I like the neutral look of this lipstick.  Check out a look I did wearing Peachstock HERE.

Petals & Peacocks is a gorgeous creamy bright magenta pink.  I used to hate hot pinks but they are slowly growing on me, because the pop of color is amazing and perfect for spring.  I also like that it is Amplified in formula so this will be very easy to apply and wear.  I will be using this in a future entry so stay tuned.

Blooming Lovely is a creamy greyed lilac mauve.  I already said that I love greyed pinks and lilacs, so this is totally up my alley.  My favorite lipsticks are also grey-infused pinks.  I will also be featuring it in a future entry.





Blue India is my favorite MAC nail lacquer, so much that I was contemplating on getting a backup of this.  It's a dark green blue with pearl cream.  It looks wonderful with blue jeans, and just about anything especially white.  The formula has also vastly improved compared to the other MAC nail lacquers in the past.  It is no longer chippy and staying power also improved a lot.  Check out a nail look using Blue India HERE.

I am not a fan of Dirty Plum that much because it is matte and I am not a fan of matte blush.  However, I can always opt to apply skinfinish or glow on top to give it a shimmer that I like.  It is also important to apply this with a light hand because this is very pigmented.



Now Shell Pearl is lovely.  It is a repromote color and it is a pale peach with gold pearl.  I love beauty powders and I have several of these.  I can probably compare it to my MAC Barbie Beauty powder in Pearl Sunshine which I love so much.  I love gilded peach with pearl highlighters.

I have Summer Rose beauty powder from the A Rose Romance collection, but the Summer Rose BP from Liberty of London is much more pigmented than the old one.  I am thinking of getting Summer Rose because this new one shows up better on my skin, and I love violet pinks.



English Accents is my favorite lipglass from this collection.  It is a creamy mid-tone blue pink that is lovely on top of either Blooming Lovely or Petals & Peacocks lipsticks.  It gives a pink, luscious look to the lips.  A Different Groove is a deep purple brown with pearl that I am not a fan of because I am not into dark lipglasses especially since spring is here.  I might revisit this during the fall as I can see this as a nice fall color.

All in all, I am liking most of the products from this collection.  Remember, for swatches and additional reviews of these products, check out THIS entry.
