Marvellous Cadbury Creations!

I love chocolate. Who doesn't?

That said, I do have a particular fondness for Cadbury chocolate. I don't know whether this is because I live exceptionally close to Cadbury World in Bournville, or because I find a certain comfort when I see Cadbury chocolate for sale in shops when I am travelling abroad!

You see, I was travelling around Russia, and one day I visited the local town Kremlin. Whilst perusing the gift shop for Matryoshki, I spotted that familiar purple wrapping! Yeah! My Russian even extended to recognise 'Cadbury' in Cyrillic...

MAC Art of the Eye Collection: Hajar Karim and Parrot eyeshadow

MAC have done it again, and released an irresistible collection to covet!

Introducing MAC Art of the Eye collection...

"M∙A∙C unveils a luxurious colour collection where eyes are the fascinating focus. From exotic smoky looks to grand statements. Two Eye Shadow X 4 palettes blend beautifully while Eye Shadow singles add vibrant highlights. Lining is legendary - dramatic Kohl Power Eye Pencil sweeps into a wide wing, while Fluidline Brow Gelcreme creates an elegant arch."

Yeah, it was the "vibrant" eyeshadow singles that caught this beauty buzzard's eye! I mean, look at the collection's graphic:

That's what I call COLOUR! I have been looking forward for MAC to do a collection like this for a while now. Personally, I have been buying some great lip products from MAC's collections this year, but hardly any eye products. I'm not going to lie, I bought all five single eyeshadows from this collection.

Here are Parrot and Hajar Karim, for your viewing pleasure!

Parrot- a deep aqua blue frost with blue shimmer.

Hajar Karim- a bright green with yellow undertones.

Man, these eyeshadows are bright, despite the sunny day that you can see in my pictures! 

The formula on both eyeshadows was very good. Both were nice and soft texture wise, and built up well. I did need to pack on Hajar Karim a little bit, but that's mainly because I wanted a really bold look!

Here is the look I created with these shadows:

Other products used:- Katy Perry by Eylure Color Pop Lashes in Ka-Ching, Urban Decay eyeliner in Zero, and Barry M Metallic Liquid Eyeliner in shade 3.
