i'm usually on the fence with M.A.C cosmetics. i know there is a huge fan following for M.A.C., making sure that all limited edition new collections get snapped up within days or even hours of their launch, but for me, M.A.C. is usually a hit or miss, and i always still have my soft spot for stila, too faced, Paul & Joe and such... what can i say, i'm a packaging kind of girl, the makeup has to look pretty in the palette before i can be convinced that it'll look pretty on me :)M.A.C. launches a new collection every month or so, they're usually very bold and loud, hardly my cup of tea. once in a while though, i do get attracted and even tempted by some of their whimsical, mod-style collections.... just like its current Tartan Tale collection, totally spot on for me! gosh, shall i make a trip down to CK Tangs this evening? ;) wonder if there's anything left...
a tartan tale
We're telling a slightly twisted Tartan Tale to celebrate holiday, in all its posh, punk, ancestral, anarchic, noble and naughty glory. Royal and raunchy, colours and patterns collide, fantasies come true, punk fairies take flight with enchanted new looks. Be transformed! (abstract from maccosmetics.com)
gee, i'm so loving these... the scottish checked prints and crest on the cases/pouches are soo pretty! ooh tempting tempting tempting :P

i'm hardly a M.A.C. cosmetics fan, except for the occasional special tie-ups or limited edition collections, or at the annual estee lauder warehouse sale ;) 
(ps: does any of you think that the above M.A.C. promo. photo reminds you of Coach too?)
check out M.A.C.'s newest collection - Liberty of London. this is not love at first sight but it's definitely growing on me. oh what can i say? i'm just such a sucker for pretty packaging.. hehehe..
i think white is a welcomed refreshing change for M.A.C. (from their usual solid blacks) and i like the flowers and birds motifs too - very spring/summery, very tropical.
honestly, i don't really fancy the makeup colours from this collection (nothing unusual), just drawn to the pretty white floral casing, esp. the beauty powders and the pouch too! :)i wonder if these are already available at our M.A.C. counters?shall check them out soon!
