MAC Quite Cute Collection Spring 2011

Brand new Spring 2011 collection from MAC which is full of pastel girly colours with cutesy names. The promotional imagery seems very inspired by Japanese subcultures, Hello Kitty and cartoons. The collection is out now online at http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/ so should be in store very soon. Be sure to order online by the 30th March 2011 as the shopping part of the site will be temporarily taken down at midnight for website updates. You can get free delivery during the time being by using the code: SPRING for the time being.

Anyway, this is what MAC say about this collection:
“CUTE!” The most fanciful, fun and flattering compliment and young, modern trendsetter could ever want! Our version is the girliest kind of international glam possible, a style ride that combines postage-stamp-sized puppies with pixie swizzle-stick fashion and buttergly kisses for cute boys and even cuter shoes! Cupcake icing colors, vintage romance, an ATM card with Hello Kitty on it – and a way of life that says “yes!” to everything adorable!

Come on, get happy, with the multi-culti cutie, from Tokyo to Toronto to Paris with love! Pastel shades for Eye Quads, Lipstick, Plushglass, and Nail Lacquer…And due to popular demand, we’re completely cute-ifying three favourite Lip Pencil shades from last season that will join the fun and frolic. Flash! You’ll ♥ the Mineralize Blush with the sweet heart baked right into it. If it shines, shimmers and pops it’s completely, contagiously, cute!

Pictures!

I'm not all that interested in this collection as I'm not a fan of pale and pastel shades on me. I think if you have fair skin, a lot of these colours will look so pretty on you. I did however order Candy Yum Yum lipstick after seeing the swatch on Temptalia. It is so bright neon pink and looks amazing. I also ordered the mint nail polish and lip pencils in In Synch and Naked. I've been waiting for MAC to repromote these lip pencils so I'm glad to get them now and I was looking for a nice mint green nail polish the other day at Barry M but thought that shade was too light. I will review these when they arrive.
