Fresh, light, summery. That's the look n feel Mac were going for with the Casual Colour collection and they've succeeded. This collection is much more subdued than the last, Sailor Sailor and is perfect for this season (it's out now). And while we might not have gotten over the disapointment that the Beth Ditto collection is only available in Dublin Airport, we can work around that by getting everyone who's flying to pick up some for us in the Mac shop. Can't we?
Yes, we can. So let's look at this bundle of goodies and the cream blush in particular.
There's a lot of love for cream blusher round these here parts and Casual Colour sees several more shades from palest pink to vibrant purple hitting the shelves. The colour range is wide enough to mean that the shades will work well with different ethnicities and skin undertones - I've even found one for me. Lazy Sunday (€21.50) is the one I'm trying out - it's a super pretty pink that will work particularly well with pale complexions to give you just a hint of colour that's smooth and easy to work with. Oh and it smells delicious - like sweets.
MAC say: "Effortless and easy, these lightweight, barely-there formulas feel like you're wearing nothing at all"
This is a fully featured Limited edition collection though, it's not just all about the blush. So what else is available?

P.S. as ever we can't hope to show you MAC releases ahead of the US blogs (they get their info yonks before us). But we will always bring you the Irish Euro prices and our picks!
