As you're reading this, I'm hopefully getting vaccinated. Been a very long and stressful journey for me to get to this point and as such, I'm not holding my breath it will happen today, but fingers crossed. Last week our nostalgic look back was the limited edition Lancôme Destiny Cube, a mash up of makeup and a fun game. Today I have some lipglosses to share.

MAC Haul & Review: The Disney Cruella Collection

I was really excited to see The Disney Cruella Collection by MAC launch. As I've previously mentioned on the blog, the 2010 MAC Venomous Villains included 4 Disney villains, one being Cruella De Vil from the animated 101 Dalmatians. However, Disney's Cruella is back for 2021 in a collection of her own, to coincide with the new live action film of the same name, starring Emma Stone (out 28th May). The range was quite small, but I picked up a few pieces. I was really tempted with the concept of the eyeshadow palette (magnetic sections that break apart to create smaller palettes), but I wasn't sure I needed it (other than the stunning khaki shimmer shade).

Sorry for the late post this week, I've had a 3 day migraine/headache that I couldn't shift and couldn't handle looking at a screen with. We're in the 25th week of Flashback Beauty Friday, which is a fun little reminisce about limited edition or older, discontinued beauty items. Last week was the MAC Cruella De Vil lipglass from their Disney Venomous Villains collection and I have photos of the new Cruella (live action) collection to share in a review post next week. For this post, I have a very cool, unusual item.

Week 24 of our visit to an old beauty item and I couldn't resist sharing this piece today, after the launch of The Disney Cruella Collection by MAC yesterday. It's to coincide with the new live action film coming out later this month. I bought a few bits, so I'm hoping to get photos up once they arrive. Before we start, if you missed my post last week, it was the MAC Graphic Garden eye palette, MAC two weeks in a row, I know, but...!

Bit of a late post as it's been a mentally draining few days. I just needed to breathe today and I've felt a headache coming on for hours.  I don't think I slept that well last night, I remember waking at half 5 and needing to go to the toilet and contemplated just not going back to sleep, then realised that was a bad idea!  Anyway, last week I took you back about 15 years to a Stila limited edition release with The Pussycat Dolls and today I have a MAC 2009 launch.

It's been a while since a Beauty Lately... post, though last night I checked back and thought "March 24th? That was just over a week ago, I thought it was longer since I posted". Then I realised, we're in May now! So more like 5 weeks. I've still been photographing bits for these posts, so hopefully I'll get back to regular posting and get caught up.
