MAC Maleficent Collection (lipstick and sculpting powder) - review and swatches

I think my hiatus is at its end now. I have one more assignment due on Monday, and then I'm done for this degree! Freedom (for now!). A couple of weeks ago, I picked up two items from the MAC Maleficent collection (I feel like I can justify this as I have used up a few items from my Project 10 Pan - a post will be put up soon for this one). I picked up the Sculpting Powder and Lipstick from the collection, and I thought I'd do a quick post on them.



True Love's Kiss is an amplified finish. Red is my absolute favourite lipstick colour, so I had no problem adding this to my collection. I also don't have many Amplified finish lipstick's from MAC, so I thought it was an okay purchase.

Sculpt is a sculpting powder and I absolutely adore it! It's not as warm as some other bronzers I own, and for lighter skinned girls, like myself, it is the perfect sculpting shade! It is matte, so it is perfect for contouring.

Overall, I absolutely adore the Sculpting Powder, and I have used it every time when I've contoured. The lipstick is nice, but as the swatches show, it is quite similar to other lipsticks I have. Ruby Woo is a matte formula, so it is a little different, but Viva Glam Rihanna (which is a frost) and True Love's Kiss look very similar swatched. 

Thanks for reading, and I will definitely have some more posts up soon!
