MAC Culturalized Eye Shadow X 2

MAC Culturalized Eye Shadow X 2

MAC always manages to wow us, and their fall collection is no exception. The new 24-piece collection, called StyleSeeker, is “influenced by the spirit and style of the global wanderer,” but you don’t need a fully stamped passport to appreciate this line. The collection offers lipsticks, lipglasses, eyeliners, eyeshadow duos, blushes, and nail polishes in bold shades like plum, orange, pink, and gold.

Our favorite item is the Culturalized Eye Shadow X 2, $27.50, which contains a creamy beige shade called Brule, and a shimmery gold shade called Retrospeck (not to be confused with the Retrospeck shadow from their permanent collection). The shadows are surprisingly subtle — light enough for day, but work easily for night. Plus, they feel silky smooth, and don’t fade over time. Definitely a must-have.

Honorable mentions from MAC’s StyleSeeker set: Gadabout Girl Nail Lacquer, $16, and Fluid Line Dark Diversion, $15.
