So first, Tropical Taboo....
Mineralize Eye Shadow: $21.
Bossa Blue
Dare to Bare
Caribbean
top-bottom: Bossa Blue, Dare to Bare, Caribbean
Next, the Mineralize Skinfinish...
I've always been a fan of these. The two shades I have from this collection are actually really warm and beautiful. The shimmer is nice too... Not too glittery or chunky. Just a beautiful shimmer. I would wear these dusted lightly over blush or even as blush alone if you don't mind the shimmer on your cheeks. I was impressed with the actual color payoff of these.
Mineralize Skinfinish: $30.
Rio
Lust

Next, the Mineralize Blush. Generally, I find that these are more on the darker side and more perfectly suited for darker skin tones. For me, I can definitely make them work by applying them with a lighter hand. This is the one I have from this collection...
Mineralize Blush: $25.

I've always been a fan of the Kohl Power Eye Pencils. This collection has two. I'm LOVING this shade. It's a beautiful blackened gold with beautiful shimmer. The other shade is Feline which is one of my favorite black liners ever.
Kohl Power Eye Pencil: $16.
Orpheus
Now on to the lip products! This collection has 5 Mineralize Rich Lipsticks. I have one, which I definitely think is one of the prettiest shades in the collection (I checked out the others in the product description photos I received with the collection which are GORGEOUS... I definitely need to check them out in person!). I love how these feel on the lips. Really rich, creamy, and a bit sheer, but perfectly pigmented enough.
Mineralize Rich Lipstick: $22.
Lady at Play
Cremesheen Glass: $20.
top-bottom: Japanese Spring, Fever Isle, Narcissus
How GORGEOUS is Fever Isle?? I love the pigmentation and subtle sparkle.
Lip Pencil: $15.
Ablaze (top), Have To Have It (bottom)
These are both great lip liner shades. The Ablaze would pair perfectly with the Lady at Play lipstick above. While the Have To Have It appears as a great nude, it's much more of an orange-toned brown. So don't expect to pair this with your really nude lip colors. It will pair much better if you're wearing a more brown shade.
I decided to combine the MAC Illustrated Bag collection with this one as well since there's just a few. I really like these! Some of you may know that the MAC Softsacs are some of my absolute favorite little cosmetic bags. These remind me of them... but a lot more fun. They're a great size too.
These are the ones I have (there are 4).
