Love it: M.A.C goes retro-tastic for the holidays

“The aura of couture, the drama of the dressing room, the glamour of getting ready to step out for the holidays. From armoire to dressing table mirror to full-length mirror and back again…”

So reads the press kit for M.A.C’s line up of absolutely want-able holiday gifts, which as always, are amongst the most gorgeous on the block.

To start, they have mini kits for eyes and lips, packaged in round, chevron-print boxes trimmed with a patent black bow; in shades and finishes too irresistible to resist. There is also a collection of style-packed, leopard-print Holiday Primped Out Lip and Eye Look Bags, and Perfectly Plush Brush Kits to fill the season with glamour. 

Looking fabulous in any location requires the glamour of a touch or two of M.A.C, a little organisation and a touch of leopard and lace, so grab your makeup and brushes and pop them into one of their M.A.C Hanging Travel Bags and you’re good to go! Or try the All for the Glamour Face Kit in Gorgeous Bronze (pictured), a limited edition face, eye, and lip palette with everything you need when you're en route to somewhere fabulous.

Last but not least – and my pick of the bunch – is a Fabulousness compact, which makes a great gift for the M.A.C freak in your life too. Chic, satin-tufted compacts with a demure black patent bow accent, they are eye shadow palettes featuring five shadows for Warm Eyes, Neutral Eyes or Smokey Eyes and are as retro-tastic as it gets. 

’Tis most definitely the season to be chic.
