When I went to my local MAC store the day when the Heavenly Creature collection launched, I was surprised when the SA said that they still have not gotten any shipment of Galaxy Rose, a midtone violet pink cremesheen glass that I was eyeing. That's the reason why it was not included in my swatches.
All in all, I think that Galaxy Rose was the only notable shade in the cremesheen glasses of this collection aside from Meteoric. The rest look kinda drab and ordinary. Celestial Kiss is a pale cool peach that would work great as a layering gloss to give a luscious lip effect, as it does not really appear like anything on my pigmented lips. Astral is a bright yellow pink that looks similar to Celestial Kiss. Meteoric is a mid-tone vibrant coral that looks so pretty. Strictly Plutonic is a mid-tone pink brown that looks boring, at least to me. The standouts are definitely Meteoric and Galaxy Rose, even if I haven't even seen the latter in person!
The lipstick shades are a lot prettier than the cremesheen glasses. Cut A Caper is a best seller, I believe- a midtone peachy pink in the lustre formula. Pleasureseeker is a creamy peach glaze. I fell in love with Fire Sign when I swatched it - it's a beautiful red pink lustre. Venus is a sheer yellow pink with pearl lustre, but it looks frosty to me, and Cusp of Dawn is a beige pink lustre. As for the lipsticks, Fire Sign is the absolute winner, with Cut A Caper as second.
All in all, I find the cremesheen glasses to be not that unique, but the lipsticks saved the lip department with Fire Sign, Cut a Caper and even Pleasureseeker. I will be getting Fire Sign for sure, I can't get over how pretty it is.
The Shades Of U Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
