Happy Monday!!!
I spent the weekend without a voice and taking antibiotics, no fun. Thankfully, I got it back today! Yesterday I went back to Inglot and bought some more goodies before the price change. I decided to try out the pigments and OMG is all I have to say!!!! but anyways on to the Valiant quad. I remember saying it swatched horribly. Welllllllll, it was actually really easy to work with and I ended up loving it. I also used all the sides of my Golden Lariat, which was reallly pretty. Heres my LOTD from like last wed or thursday lol. Have a great week =)

MAC's Wonder Woman Collection 2011 haul & swatches
Here it is!! Yayyy... So tonight the bestie and I had an RSVP for the unveiling of WW for 8 pm at Aventura mall. We literally went in got our stuff, (and a drink) and out. It was super packed and hot!
I was pretty excited for this collection, but once I began reading some reviews online the excitement went out the window. I walked out with 4 things. The valiant quad, Athena's Kiss lipglass, Spitfire lipstick and Golden Lariat MSF. I reallllllly wanted the pink power msf but it was sold out because they only had a limited amt. The girl said they only shipped a few of those and would have more later =( but oh well, I know I'll get my hands on it sooner or later.
here are some pics.





The only reason I bought the Valiant Quad is because one of the colors is named Diana Undercover lol. I'm completely dissapointed with the lack of pigmentation in this quad, I had to dig to get a decent swatch with the 2 lighter colors. 40 dollars, so not worth my name on a freaking eyeshadow grrrrr!!!

Doesn't it look like a harmonica? lol

I also got Athena's kiss lipglass, which is obviously sized for angelina jolie's lips and Spitfire lipstick. Athena's kiss is a fuschia pink and looks a lot like electric Fuchsia or hot house (except hot house is darker). Spitfire is a satin, it's beautiful fuchsia color, which will go great with athena's kiss.



Golden Lariat is a Mineral Skinfinish. It has a highlighting, bronzing, and blush side. It's probably my fave part of the collection just because its huuuuge in comparison to other MSF's. The one I really wanted was pink power though =(


All in all, I think Mac needs to step up their game. There's nothing new or exciting about this collection in person except that a lot of it is oversized. The collection is totally dupeable. Cute packaging doesn't make up for lack of quality.
