If there was a single MAC collection that never failed to excite us year after year it would be their holiday collection. For 2018 MAC are bringing us the limited edition Shiny Pretty Things collection. The Shiny Pretty Things collection is inspired by bauble, hallucinatory brights and major sparkle. MAC have gone by the motto "more is more" to create a must-have collection this season. You'll find everything wrapped in hyper metallic packaging to delight your inner magpie.
As always the holiday collection is split into two parts. We have the colour collection which contains show stopping individual items including extra dimension highlighters, dazzleliner and pretty single shadows. We also have the gifting half of the collection which includes ultra value for money gifting to treat friends or yourself of course!
I know many of you have been waiting for my low down on the MAC holiday collection and there's A LOT to get through so let's just dive straight into it.

I think the show stopping products that will be top of most peoples lists are the items in the individual colour collection along with the Glow Getter highlighting kits. I do suspect there are some fix+ kits that will also be available as part of the gifting collection but at present I don't have all the details on those for you. As always with MAC cosmetics limited edition collections once they are gone, they are truly gone for good. I'd advise being hot off the mark if there's something you have your heart set on.
The MAC Cosmetics Shiny Pretty Things Collection launches HERE and HERE on 18 October 2018 as well as MAC stores.
Let me know which items are going on your wish list!
