Only the finest will do for a MAC toast to the New Year! Cham Pale is a cuvée colour collection that’s cause for celebration – a Champagne smash, shimmering with all the bubbly optimism and golden glow of the best that’s yet to be,in Eye Shadow, from Brule to Et tu, Bouquet?; Paint Pots in Chilled on Ice and Let Me Pop, Lipstick in four shades, especially Quiet Please, and Flustered; Lipgelée from Bubble Lounge to Straight to the Head; two Chromagraphic Pencils (NC15/NW20 and NW25/NC30); Eye Kohl in I Get No Kick; Kohl Power in Feline; Nail Lacquer we call Very Important Platinum!; Studio Fix Mascara, and new Special Reserve Highlight Powder in four shades ending perfectly elegantly in everyone’s favourite: Rosé Olé. All, for every skin tone. To us!
Releasing just after Christmas on December 26th, Cham Pale is another big collection from MAC. (I know what I'll be using all my holiday gift cards on!) It's perfect for those days when you want to look put together, but not have your makeup stand out by wearing bright or bold shades. I haven't seen this collection in person yet, but based on the descriptions online, here's what I'm coveting already:
- Eye Shadow X 4 - Caviar Dreams - This is the palette pictured above. How soft and shimmery are those shades? So, so pretty. They'd actually be perfect today on (yet another) rainy day in Los Angeles.
- Nail Lacquers in Soiree and Very Important Platinum - Soiree is a sparkly light bronze gold and Very Important Platinum is a dirty platinum frost. They sound very pedicure worthy!
- Special Reserve Highlight Powders in Chez Chez Lame and Rose Ole - Nobody does highlight powders like MAC and these two sound delightful - Chez Chez Lame is a soft gold with silver shimmer and Rose Ole is a soft pink with gold shimmer. I can't wait to see these in person.
- Paint Pots - I love Paint Pots and these sound so pretty. I can't decide which one I want the most out of the four in the collection - Chilled on Ice (a frosted white gold), Let Me Pop (a frosted light copper), Vintage Selection (a frosted dirty peach) or Dangerous Cuvee (a frosted cool grey). If I can't decide, that means I should buy all four of them, right?
- I'm not so much into the light lip products because they kind of make me look like a corpse (sexy!) but for those of you who are, there are four pale lipsticks and four Lipgelees to choose from.
Cham Pale also includes a premium skincare collection that I can't wait to get my hands on. There are four items in it - Fix+ Lavender, Complete Comfort Creme, Lip Conditioner SFP 15 + Lavender, and a Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 + Lavender in Calm Mode (a light neutral beige). I really want to try the Complete Comfort Creme because my skin is so damn dry at the moment, for some reason. Maybe that'll help!
Cham Pale won't be officially release until the 26th, but if you stalk maccosmetics.com, they almost always have their collections online earlier. Happy hunting!
