I always love MAC’s summer collections. Although I embrace my paleness, the collections always inspire me to step out of my bronzer comfort zone. Plus the packaging is always different and keeps us on our toes. I’m particularly in love with this season’s MAC To The Beach collection packaging, the seashells and seahorses on the lime green and orange packaging make it hard to resist… plus the return of Lustredrops!

So there you have it! This is a pretty big collection, isn’t it? The brushes are re-promotes and I’m so happy about that because I don’t know where my head was at the first time these were introduced. Both of them are definitely going on my shopping list. Naturally, as a fiend for anything highlighter-ish, the Lustredrops on are my list as well.
How about you? What’s on your list? The MAC To the Beach collection lands on counters tomorrow!








I purchased 2 of the mermaid highlighters it’s really more of a blush. You can use it three ways.

Lipsticks: Thrills & Funbathing
Cream Bronzer: Weekend
I already had the 130 brush & I have a sigma 131 brush. I may end up purchasing the MAC 131 too
