Every year, fans of the trendsetting makeup brand, MAC Cosmetics, line up to get their hands on the first MAC Cosmetics holiday gift sets. 2009 is no different with the launch of The Mischief Makers Collection.
The Mischief Makers pigment holiday colors are available in three different sets: Haute High Jinx, Cool Capers and Sexpot.
The 2009 MAC Cosmetics Holiday Collection: Haute High Jinx Pigment Gift Set
The MAC Cosmetics Haute High Jinx pigment collection features four warm pigment tones, and one warm glitter. This collection is a great gift idea for those with warm skin tones, or those who prefer makeup colors that tend to be more brown or natural.
- Jardin Aires: A limited edition light tan pigment with gold pearlized pigments scattered throughout.
- Copperized: This olive green pigment with a touch of golden pearl is a limited edition pigment
- Reflects Gold: The only glitter in the 2009 MAC Holiday pigments set is a rich gold that will be a permanent addition to the MAC Cosmetics line.
- Rushmetal: A limited edition pigment with a deep sparkly copper.
- Museum Bronze: A pearly taupe with golden undertones and a pearlescent finish. Also a limited edition item.
The neutral colors of the Haute High Jinx gift set work well with any eye color, but the golds and the coppers in the pigments will especially highlight blue or green eyes. The pigments also work well mixed together. Adding a touch of the Reflects Gold glitter to any of the pigments will add glitz to any look.
The 2009 MAC Cosmetics Holiday Collection: Cool Capers Pigment Gift Set
Those who look best in cool toned makeup colors will appreciate the MAC Cosmetics pigment collection Cool Capers. This collection features two pigments normally only found in the MAC Pro stores, including a teal glitter.
- Kitchmas: A shimmery pink and mauve pearl pigment that is part of the permanent collection.
- Grape: This limited edition pigment is a rich, deep purple.
- Fuchsia: Part of the permanent collection, this is a bright fuschia color with a pearl finish.
- Deep Blue Green: Part of the permanent MAC Pro collection, this pigment is a deep blue with green undertones.
- Reflects Transparent Teal: Also part of the permanent collection at MAC Pro stores, this glitter pigment is highly pulverized into a micro-fine teal glitter. Great layered over eyeliner or by itself.
The deep jewel tones in the Cool Capers gift set by MAC Cosmetics are especially complimentary on darker skin tones and those who feel comfortable wearing a lot of color. Mix a touch of the Fuchsia pigment into any lip balm or lipgloss for an additional festive pop of color.
The 2009 MAC Cosmetics Holiday Collection: Sexpot Pigment Gift Set
The third collection of MAC Cosmetics 2009 pigments features pigments for creating one of the most prominent trends for the holiday season: a smoky eye. The Sexpot collection features two light shades and three dark pigments, including two that are typically only available at a MAC Pro store.
- Naked: Similar the MAC eyeshadow of the same name, this pigment is a shimmery, light gold and pink pigment with a coppery pearl finish.
- Sunnydaze: This limited edition pigment is a soft taupe with apricot undertones and a silver pearl finish.
- Dark Soul: Part of the permanent pigment collection at MAC, Dark Soul is a deep, charcoal black with a hint of gold. This pigment makes a great eyeliner when paired with an angled brush.
- Chocolate Brown: This MAC Pro pigment is a shimmery brown color with copper and bronze undertones.
- Relflects Antique Gold: This golden bronze glitter pigment can be found year-round at MAC Pro stores.
The five pigments in the Sexpot collection are a must-have for anyone who likes to wear a smoky-eyed look year-round. The darker pigment colors can be used in several ways, including wet or dry.
Each of the 2009 MAC Cosmetics Holiday Mischief Makers gift sets is available beginning November 5, 2009. The suggested retail price of the eye pigments is $32.50, and they are only available while supplies last. The gift sets are available in select department stores, at MAC Cosmetics stores, and at MAC Cosmetics online.
