MAC Venomous Villains Bad Fairy Nail Polish (Maleficent)
I almost lost my mind when I opened up my package from Bloomingdales and only saw that I received ONE nail polish. The good thing, though, is that nail polish was the highly sought after and popular BAD FAIRY. Had it been FORMIDABLE! I would have gotten really upset. I ordered only two polishes from the Venomous Villains collection and they were Bad Fairy and Formidable. I didn’t order Mean and Green because I wasn’t feeling the swatches I saw from other bloggers and makeup enthusiasts. Instead of flipping out I grabbed my receipt and called customer service to find out that my order was split – which calmed me down. Yay!
I had originally put these all three polishes on hold at Bloomingdales, but when I went to pick up my order they were not in it. The MA had to put an online order in for me and it’s why I’m getting them in the mail. So far, again, I’ve gotten BAD FAIRY. Whew! And after the 8th I should be receiving Formidable!. I’m guessing that they had to ship separate because they were in different locations…these nail polishes flew off the shelves and from online quick. I’m happy to be getting them at all.
Today, I went to MAC to do a Back 2 MAC and the girl sasid, “Ooooh is that our polish?” And I said, “Yes indeedy, it’s Bad Fairy.” And she said, “Awww man! It’s so pretty! I wish I had gotten it, but it’s all sold out everywhere.” And she’s correct! Anyway, here is my Bad Fairy and a swatch…I wasn’t able to catch the duo chrome thing in the pictures because my cam sucks. This nail polish is has a pumpkin orange in it, a Fall leaves red and some gold in it…reminds me of Fall leaves in color when I move my hands certain ways. It’s gorgeous! I had to put two coats to on to make it opaque and I topped it off with a top coat because the formula is not all that smooth. The polish has glitter in it, but it’s not over glittery or chunky. Price: $13.00
MAC Venomous Villians Haul & Swatches
The MAC Venomous Villains collection hit the stores this past Thursday and I was able to get all of the things I wanted out of this collection because I put them old hold a week and a half before it was released. I don’t have any pictures of the nail polishes I picked up because those were the only things that were not put on hold for me because the counter where I placed my hold only got in 2 each of the nail polishes. I was able to place an order with Bloomingdales so my nail polishes are on the way! I decided on Bad Fairy and Formidable!…was not feeling Mean & Green so I passed on it. As for the collection as a whole, I love the packaging andall of the colors. I think MAC did a great job overall. I would have liked to see more with Dr. Facilier, but I think his collection came out pretty good. I am happy with my purchase. Swatches at the end! Anyhooo…here is my haul!
My MAC Dare To Wear Haul
Late, yeah, I know. I ordered my items on the MAC Dare To Wear launch day and I got my products two days later so I was on point in terms of being an early bird for this one. I am not into those new dazzleglasses at all because in this particular formula the glitter is chunky and I hate flat out hate them. Here is all I got and I am not too impressed with what I ordered (not crazy about this collection at all) — no I’m not, but I’m going to show you all anyway. I will be keeping all of the eyeshadows (Louder Please, Shock-a-holic, Sassy Grass, Crazy Cool, Going Bananas) I bought because they are limited edition and maybe I’ll learn to love them someday. Here is all I got… $14.50 each.
Swatches!
