MAC Guo Pei Collection: Fall 2022 - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Years from now, in the distant future, when historical beauty buffs/artistic archeologists look back on MAC'due south 2022 limited edition releases, the laurels for Best Dressed Collection could hands go to MAC Guo Pei.
This 1 is a dazzler! — and the packaging is too unusual for MAC. The compacts, lipsticks, brushes and glosses are all wearing material accents with floral flourishes (there'south even a cute piffling lady bug on the print) and have details similar real stitching on the fabric sides.
Unfortunately, the designer treatment also results in one of the more expensive MAC collections effectually. The two eyeshadow quads are — brace yourself for information technology — $lxx each (!).
Yes, that's crazypants.
Thankfully, the shadows are up to par for MAC. Unlike the shadows in some of MAC's other limited edition quads and palettes, which for me are sometimes hit or miss (some experience harder than usual and aren't as pigmented as their permanent collection counterparts), these are of comparable quality to the shadows in the permanent line.
Thank goodness for that.
All of the shadows in the two quads swatch beautifully, and I oasis't had any bug with blending, skipping, fallout or patchy/uneven application.
The collection is a collaboration with Chinese designer Guo Pei, famous in Mainland china for her elaborate hand-sewn creations, some of which take years to complete. Earlier this summer she made waves on the international scene with a magnificent gold and canary yellow gown worn by Rihanna to the Met Ball.
I've read that the gown, with its voluminous train and intricate embroidery, took 2 years to consummate.
Two YEARS!
I can definitely encounter the manner influence in the design of these products.
Ironically, despite the springy garden vibe I get from the packaging, the colors within the products seem like fall — just they aren't predictible. The lovely gem-toned blues are spiced up with warm coppers and golds, touches of red, coral and pink on cheeks and lips, and charcoal grays for the eyes.
All told, it'southward a pricey, pretty collection with jaw-dropping packaging.
I think the quads are great. I merely wish they weren't so expensive…
