It’s the collection we have all been talking about, previously due to hit stores in August the release date was moved forward to today. There is a huge range of gorgeous colours of MSF (including the infamous Stereo Rose and Petticoat) a range of mineralise eye shadow trios, blush duos plus lippies and creamsheen gloss….
I have been quite excited about this collection, there was a lot from it that I really liked the look of but on seeing it in person I narrowed it down to four products. It was the eyeshadow trios that really won me over – priced £15 for essentially three eye shadows to me, in girly maths = good value. So I picked up three of them… two slightly more unusual shades and one neutral:
– soften the mood (pale blue, shimmery pink, brown)
– in the groove (peach coral, shimmering burgundy, beige)
– togetherness (pale lilac, deep shimmer blue and grey – which to me has a slightly olive undertone…)
Plus I picked up one blush duo in ‘hang loose’ the lilac/pale pink combo – the blush cost £17.50.
All in all, very happy. Probably should have just got two shadow trios rather than three – but I expect most of these will sell out so don’t want to be kicking myself later.
Although I do love the MSF’s I decided to skip them as I have a couple already (including By Candlelight from this collection) and don’t think I need any more. Despite the hype – and normally I’m a sucker for hype. Decided to go for something a bit different!
What have you picked up/are lusting after from In the groove?
**The Small Print**
All bought with own sweet cash (which is rapidly depleting already this month. It’s only the 1st!)
I only have one MAC Mineralize e/s called ‘Love Connection’ from the Pinkzapoppin! set, and it’s so bad it’s actually funny – no pigmentation and ginormous chunks of glitter! But In The Groove, especially the shimmering burgundy does look pretty…

Ooh very pretty.
How shimmery is Hang Loose? I quite fancy it but didn’t order online as I wanted to see it in real life first. Same with the eyeshadows. I did give in to the hype however and ordered Stereo Rose online!
woo looks like you had a good shop! I like MAC but never get super excited about it, however i these shadows and blushes look really lovely. I have a Mac store near my work, so will pop in for sure. x
It is quite shimmery, but not as much as the MSF’s. It’s quite cool toned so I’m probably going to use it more on top of other blush colours or as a highlight – but it’s very pretty and think it will look good on paler skin tones.
I’m SO excited about this collection as everything looks beautiful.
I can’t wait to get to MAC after work!
Love your blog btw 🙂
