MAC's Wonder Woman

You say the words "Wonder Woman" and what's the first thing that pops into your head?



For me, its this cheesy theme song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fwq3ECOFKEM&feature=related and the image of Linda Carter in that red bustier, with red boots and blue underpants! I know it sounds bleuch but she was (and still is) HOT!! And for an icon of the 70s, she still looks amazing.


Back to the makeup relevance, MAC has just released a Wonder Woman Collection with matching red tops and blue unders ;) I'm a shiny addict! I like things in pretty packages - hey I'm a makeup artist, we put pretty packages on people's faces ;) - and I love this packaging. It is totally wonder woman!



The makeup colors themselves however, aren't really anything new or unusual. I would have liked to see more shades of red instead of the brown "heroine" or the coral "marquise d'" - maybe different reds for different skin tones.



The utility belt brush bags - yeah bleuch - glorified bum bag - not buying it - it may be nice shiny gold but its a lil too 70s for me personally. I can just see some Jersey Shore wannabe wearing that in a club thinknig she's so cool while I'm cringing!!! (Picture courtesy of http://www.maccosmetics.com/)



I do loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee the red and blue shimmery leather makeup bags. Those are great colors and would look pretty awesome coming out of your (or my) little black bag. Very secret identity revealing ;) BUT I am going to stick to my New Year's resolution and NOT go buy them (just as well since they are already sold out :) )

What do you think?

UPDATE: Just found out from Ann Ho of Styles by Ann that MAC in ValleyFair is holding a WonderWoman event in the store on Friday - 11th Feb 2011. Go check it out for yourself, not sure how much they will have left!
