MAC Peacocky Collection

Peacocky Ambient 300Resized MAC Peacocky Collection

As MAC says – “Arrogance or elegance? The showy display, the undeniably sexual spectacle, the iridescent irreverence… it’s awe-inspiring. We fetishize the exotic peacock as a symbol of extreme beauty, an act of elaborate nature, raging against everything simplistic. Peacocky fans out in a foray of intense colour for Lips and Eyes, exotic and sophisticated with a touch of ’30s F. Scott Fitzgerald glamour and mesmerizing metallic sheen. New Kissable Lipcolour combines full flash with creamy comfort. It’s molten, with elastomer technology that imparts a velvety, aerated feel without sacrificing shine. Light as a feather. Mega Metal Shadow gleams like chrome, with light-reflecting properties – yet creamy, crease-resistant, vitamin-fortified flexibility. Dramatic doesn’t even begin to describe the girl who knows she’s Peacocky.”

MAC’s new Peacocky Collection is a collection of boldly-colored lip glosses and eye shadows. The lip glosses are referred to as “Kissable Lip Colours” and the shadows are referred to as “Mega Metal Shadows”. The metallic finishes offer a nice alternative to the pale/neutral (shimmer) shades offered in Cham Pale and the vivid/bold shades from Stylishly Yours. This collection will be available in the US on January 6, 2011 and Internationally in February 2011. Now that you know what this collection is, let’s see what it has to offer!

The formula claims it won’t fade or crease and contains vitamins A & E to help condition the delicate eye area. Mega Metal Shadows promise to deliver “an even, smooth application that lasts all day and easily blends with little fall-out”.

I really don’t see myself picking up anything from this collection. Primarily due to the fact that the products are priced higher than regular products and $19.50 for an eyeshadow is a bit much for my tastes. I feel that with the prices being more than usual, they should have entertained us with some fancier packaging, yes? For instance, Cham Pale products ranged in price the same as permanent items, so I was perfectly happy to have standard packaging. Does this collection catch your eye? Are you wanting anything in particular? Share with me in the comments!

  3. Purple + Green = I LIKEY! Odalisque and Noir Plum look great.

    Peacocks and their color palette are definitely a fashion trend for 2011.

  6. Hi,

    I know this is a little off topic, but first of all well done for your product reviews on here and your blog. .I started using MAC 8 years ago when I was working for Olympic airlines.I swear to God the only make up that could stay on for 8 hours and believe me check in staff in Rhode island with that kind of heat its pretty hard to stay nice and potent. Anyway, I live in Athens now doing something else. I discovered MAC in Ermou street and at the airport Iam really happy about it because in Rhode Island I could only found it in Hondos Center (pretty small section) and the lack of variety is an issue there. Anyways, I wanted to ask if you know where I could find an eyeshadow thats called “cold pink” I think that’s the name. I wasnt able to find it yet is there a site that you know of? I dont Know if it was a collective set. And I would like to ask which are the shadows with glitter on them I mean glitter not pigment I saw a friend one night with that gorgeus black eyeshadow with silver glitter in it. Really sparkling very christmasy do you know of any products like this? I wish MAC would start making some.

    And one last question do you know if MAC participates in any exibitions in Athens so I could come visit?

    Thats all thank you MAC for making us shine .

    My best regards

    Trin

      Trin, I don’t work for MAC so I’m can’t answer where they participate. I wish I could be of more help! I simply receive the press releases and share their wonderful goodies with the world. :D

    i love to place brule as a highlight,vex all over the lid,shale into the crease and then shadowy lady on the outer v,i like to use ransom eyeliner by urban decay on bottom lash line with shadowy lady over the top of this.

    i line my water line in 24/7 zero and have a nude lip normally macs hue with bot bait cremesheen or angel lipstick with amplified plushglass.

    Yeah, I don’t see myself getting anything from this collection either. I’d rather save up for the Wonder Woman collection, coming soon by the way!! 19.50 for an eyeshadow is kind of pricey.

Speak Your Mind
