The MAC Sweet Peach Face compact was part of the Nutcracker 2016 Christmas collection. As it was limited edition these products did sell out quite quickly but I managed to grab my hands on this online as luckily they still had a few avaliable. 

The Sweet Peach compact features Extra Dimension Skinfinish in shade Tutu and Extra Dimension Blush in shade At Dusk. Both of these are stunning shades.

 
 (sorry I couldn't edit the photo to make it brighter as it made the shades too light/completely different and I wanted to show the correct shades in natural light) 

Tatu is what i'd personally call a light champagne shade. It is a soft, shimmering highlighter and I must say it has been one of my favourites since buying it. I'm hoping MAC release this as part of their permenant line as I would love to repurchase this.

At Dusk is what i'd call a soft pink. It is described as peach but for me neither the blush or the highlighter is a shade of peach. The blush gives a lovely flush of colour to my cheeks and paired with Tutu they both look beautiful together. Both the highlighter and blush are buildable when applying so you can add more or less to achieve your perfect look. 

The packaging is lovely, the compact comes in a cardboard box which features the same design. I love the colours and feel the gold stitching around the compact is a lovely little touch. The design did resemble the Nutcracker that you may have saw around the MAC stores duing Christmas period. Both the blusher and highlighter are embossed with the same design as the compacts outer packaing. Once you open the compact up it features a well sized mirror which makes this whole set perfect for travelling or popping in your handbag. 

Fingerscrossed the bring out Tatu and At Dusk as their own individual shades! 

Did you buy anything from the MAC Nutcracker Collection last Christmas?

Since the Too Faced Sweet Peach was launched there has been a huge hype over this product and was in and out of stock for a while. All my local stores were out of stock and so was online so I personally waited a couple of months before I ended up buying this. 

I only own one Too Faced makeup product which is one of their heart shaped blushers and I have never tried out their other eyeshadow palettes (such as the chocolate bar ones) but I have heard great things about them so when I saw this was being launched I just knew I had to try it out. 

 

The shadows are housed in this metal, pencil tin like case. The casing has an ombre effect from pink to peach and has peachs embossed onto the tin. The palette comes in a cardboard box and also comes with a guide which features three different looks you can create using the Sweet Peach palette. 

Once opened you are greeted with the beautiful array of colours and the pleasant smell of sweet peaches. Now when buying this I didn't actually think it would smell of peaches so when I first opened this up I was surprised, it smells lovely! The case also includes a decent sized mirror in the lid which is handy if you are taking this away with you.  

 

Sweet Peach contains 18 eyeshadows such as peachy pinks, bronze and purple shades which allows you to create endless, modern looks.

The shades include:
  • White Peach
  • Nectar
  • Peaches 'N' Cream
  • Luscious
  • Cobbler
  • Georgia
  • Just Peachy
  • Candied Peach
  • Caramelized
  • Bless Her Heart
  • Bellini
  • Puree
  • Tempting
  • Peach Pit
  • Summer Yum
  • Charmed, I'm Sure
  • Delectable
  • Talk Derby To Me 
 

 

The eyeshadows have a good combination of matte, shimmer and satin shades. They are well pigmented although I feel White Peach and Nectar are really pale. The colours blend in easily and I didn't have a problem with any fall out. The shadows can also be applied wet to give you more of an intense colour. 

For me as much as I do love the shadows that are in this palette and the different shades it has and the looks they can create, personally I feel it should have more orangey/coral/peachy shades due to the name of the palette being "Sweet Peach".

 

This palette retails for £39.00
