MAC Cosmetics N Collection

by Shannon on January 12th, 2008

mac cosmetics n collectionA portrait in the nude, daring in its stripped-down sensuality with natural shades in Mineralized Skinfinishes that play up the nakedness of cheeks, lips, eyes…for a glamazon who knows the power of artifice, but has the confidence and allure to strip it all away. N Collection is naked, with coverage – it’ll be our little secret. Custom-created high-performance brushes mean no one need ever know. Seductive, and ripe for scandal.

You didn’t know it during Fashion Week SS08, but the N Collection was being used all over the runway. This collection just became available in stores a few days ago and I can bet it’s going to be a sell out. The colors are amazing.

As for the “Charged Water” in the collection, I may just have to try that out myself and give it a review on A Girl’s Gotta Spa!

    This collection was johnny-come-lately in Denver, and then disappeared. I missed it! Did you get any products? How did they work out? I’ve never really understood scupting powders, but they were a part of the N collection, right? how do they work?

    Hi Julie, I only received a few pieces from the collection, but not the sculpting powders. I’ve actually never tried any of their sculpting powders–but when I went to Fashion Week at the beginning of Feb., it was all the rave with the MUA’s at the shows.

    this collection was awesome! the looks are stunning and the products were great for everyone. the sculpting products (i believe came out dec 26th) are used for highlighting & contouring… i.e. chiseled cheekbones, etc. the texture is nice and easy to blend & the combo is good for subtle contouring. this may not be an everyday look for everyone.

    I’ve heard a lot about contouring lately. I’m interested intrying the technique, but don’t know how to do it. Can anyone recommend a website or any tips on how to do it?

    One of MAC’s best collections. I think they created it for people who like the company reputation, but are afraid of the colors they are so known for - but alot of diehard MAC Fans really love it too. So wearable, and chocolate milk colored nail polish? Adorable!

    Bummer. I guess my hunt for the perfect face continues. I’ll still keep hunting on how to use a sculpting powder. Thanks for letting me know, though!

    This collection looks fab. I have to be careful with nudes though…they can make me look really washed out. I don’t really need to be going out every day sporting the zombie look.
