My Haul from MAC's So Supreme Collection

So I know I said I wasn't originally going to get anything from the So Supreme collection, but I lied.  Sorry.  I ONLY picked up three of the six lipsticks though.  These I picked out because the colors (prior to purchase) looked original, less dupable, and not quite like anything I have in my tiny lipstick collection.  The three I got are: Gotta Dash!, Candy Apple, and Pleasurefruit.  Check out the swatches below.  These lippies have a nice finish and are creamy and fully opaque upon swatching. Sheen supreme lipsticks combine the color quality of a lipstick with the sheen of a lipgloss.  These lippies were certainly very shiny/sheeny like a lipgloss, with good coverage.  The coverage is a bit slippery, so I'd recommend wearing with a liner of some sort.

My favorite out of the three I purchased is Candy Apple.  It reminds me of a lighter, shinier Heaux (from Rihanna's collection).  Gotta Dash! was a bit lighter than I expected, with not fully opaque coverage.  Pleasurefruit is a nice bright pink, but not "rare".  It reminds me of a darker Candy Yum Yum.  Or perhaps a Candy Yum Yum + Girl About Town concoction.

MAC's So Supreme Lip Collection

MAC released, online a new collection last week, "So Supreme".  This collection is a lip only collection.  It's available now online at MAC and Nordstrom.  I'll have to check and see if it is going to be in stores or not. The collection features six lipsticks and eight lipglass tints.  Some of the colors are permanent and some are limited edition.  These lipsticks promise to give you the color of regular lipsticks, plus the shine sheen of lipglass.  The lipglass tints promise high shine with a creamy formula that leaves long lasting color and features pigments that work with the body's temperature for fresh, custom color. The lipsticks retail at $16 and the lipglass tints at $20, a bit different from MAC's regular pricing, but the packaging is a bit different, especially for the lipglass tints.

The Sheen Supreme Lipsticks are:
  1. Candy Apple (midtonal warm plum-LE)
  2. Gotta Dash! (pale clean coral-permanent)
  3. Playtime (bright coral pink-LE)
  4. Pleasurefruit (bright warm pink-LE)
  5. Sweet Grenadine (bright orange-LE)
  6. Pret-A-Pretty (soft warm pink-LE)

The Sheen Supreme Lipglass Tints are:
  1. K-Wow (soft cool pink-LE)
  2. Bubble Gum (soft warm pink-LE)
  3. Simply Wow (midtonal cool mauve-LE)

  5. Kiss, Kiss (cool peach cream-LE)
  6. Gyi-Yo-Mi (midtonal raspberry-LE)
  7. Blushing Berry (midtonal cool red-LE)
  8. Glorious Intent (warm plum-LE)
