MAC Naturally: Blonde and Redhead Mineralize Skinfinishes Swatches and Review

MAC Redhead, Blonde MSFs






Redhead




Blonde



I've had the Redhead and Blonde mineralize skinfinishes since 2009 when MAC came up with the Brunette, Blonde, Redhead collection. This time, in the Naturally collection, MAC did away with the Brunette MSF which was more of a contour/bronzer shade. Here were the three MSFs from three years ago:



And these were my swatches:



I don't think the MSFs changed much. Redhead is still the gold to salmon pink degrade, while Blonde is the soft pink to rose degrade. I love these two. They are finely milled and the shimmer is quite pretty. Redhead is on the warmer, peachier side, while Blonde is in the cooler pink side.

Here are my recent swatches under sunlight:


Blonde, Redhead







I am such a fan of the MSFs since 2006. I've been collecting them and they are probably my most coveted MAC products aside from shadows and some blushes. The swatches I made are a little on the heavier side, but you can definitely tone it down by using your MAC 187 or 188 brush (or any duo fibre brush) to apply these on your cheekbones, temples, or even your decolletage for a lit-from-within complexion.  These mineralized skinfinishes are versatile as you can even use these on your eyes.

Which one is your favorite? I will be posting the rest of the Naturally collection swatches soon!
