MAC Cosmetics Alice+Olivia Collection
I knew this collection was going to be all kinds of great. Stacey Bendet, Alice+Olivia, is utterly charming on her twitter account. Recently, she has been touring the country in a Alice+Olivia tour bus. She visited the vintage clothing mecca, Mars & Venus in Nashville.
The collection is described as "frump fighting, pro-pixie, anti-seriousness collection of color". There are dazzleglass cremes glosses, pigments, and nail lacquers.
Each product is 100% lemming worthy. This could be "Madame B" greatness.
The Dazzleglass Cremes are sparklefested genius.
I.Want.Candy is a greenish yellow with multi-dimensional pearl. I need to experiment with this lippie. It scews slightly neon and the green cast can be tricky. This gloss is just so damn cool looking.
The pink cast is just a speck. Very girly and pretty.
If It's Pink is a hot pink with some navy blue shimmer flecks. The Dazzleglass Cremes retail for $18.00($21.50 CDN)
Let me introduce you the first lemming of the 2010 year. This pigment will make you lose your mind.
Later is a sooty black with purple shimmer.
This is Holy Mackerel good! The purple is more evident when applied wet. This morning I am wearing it as a liner.
If It Sparkles is a snow white with pink pearl. It is pink-opalish. Just more snow and shimmer fire. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEij3API3ozUbOUIFLSj5sceWEOyedJ1T43zwg0j8jtDdEZOJ0QAHAuUQHMC0h-R3tnApFZGeH2y6imEihOXOPXzyI1mlPQfdDy9FzolZzJHndszFB_IwNc_SqornHCoG0M-mXpORA/s400/DSCN1420.JPG)

Partylicious is a turquoise with silver pearl. I have not tested this shade yet. I need to compare it to all my teal/turquoise shades. This will take an afternoon! MAC's Director of Makeup Artistry, MUA God, and Goldfrapp fan, Gregory Arlt suggests sweeping this shade all over the lid with #252 brush. I will never be that brave.
These pigments retail for $19.50($23.50 CDN) and they are worth checking out!
The nail lacquers are fun and edgy. Morning After is a creamy turquoise.
Blue nail polish fans(I am looking at you Patti aka Cavewoman!) will fall in love. This will be my Saturday manicure color.

Yes, you're right, the cavewoman loves that blue nail color!
I'm so excited for this collection! The pigments look gorgeous.
Wow, wow, wow at those glosses! That is a seriously bright green/yellow gloss. I need to see what it looks like on, haha. This collection looks great!
I'm lemming the blue polish only! Maybe the yellow dazzleglass. But that's it!
I think that yellow gloss would look great over a fuschia or bright pink lipstick. a green tinge or pearl looks great over bright pinks.
