A Quick Look at the MAC Bao Bao Wan Collection Beauty Powder and Lipsticks [VIDEO]

March 5th, 2015 by Karen 19 Comments

If this Forbidden Sunrise Lipstick were actually forbidden…I’d break that rule. I mean look at it! — bright orange. WOW.

It’s like the color that your tongue turns after you’ve eaten some obnoxiously orange candy, and yes, I like it.

Just a quick look at the new MAC Bao Bao Wan collection Beauty Powder and Lipsticks (available now online and in stores March 5 – April 2, 2015). If you’ve ever wished that you could stand under a deluge of glitter, the Beauty Powder — you wants it.

As always, thank you for watching. I’ll be posting more pics and swatches soon.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    I love the look of Lavender Jade, but it’s all sold out on the UK site and won’t be coming to my local store. Oh well, I think (I hope) there are some interesting lavender-ish colours coming along in the next couple of months.

    I’m sure you’ve been asked this about a billion times before, but which brush are you using for highlighter? I use the 159, but this brush looked fantastic.

    Thanks for the video. x

      Hi Erinaceina,

      In this video I’m using the MAC 165, which unfortunately is discontinued. Real Techniques has a similar one called the Contour Brush; I got it in the Core Collection pack.

      If I’m not using either of those I sometimes use a fan brush (Louise Young LY20) or a tapered blending brush like the MAC 224.

      HTH! Let me know if you have any other questions.

    I could watch your videos all day!

    I really wanted the Burmese Kiss lipstick but, of course, it sold out before I even thought twice about getting it.

      Hi Agata,

      Aww, thank you! You know, this one sold out pretty fast! Hopefully they’ll restock it!

      Happy Thursday to you, by the way. Is the Vegas countdown on yet?

        Karen, the Vegas countdown is totally ON, down to hours right now- in 25 hours I will be on a plane 🙂 I am so excited and I really need a vacation and some sun!

    Very cute video, Karen! I usually don’t have the patient for videos, but this was adorable. I love the Forbidden Sunrise lippie. I love a true orange! Not sure whether it’s too much orange for this redhead, but you never know!

    Wow Karen, Forbidden sunrise looks amazing on you! I have it on right now and it definitely doesn’t look like that. I still like it a lot though.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
