As soon as I saw the press release for MAC Hey Sailor! collection, the pretty packaging suckered me right in. I loved the promo image and I think the stripes are fun but also something pretty to sit in my makeup collection.
I was a good beauty blogger and only chose one thing from the collection, and didn't hesitate when making my choice.
Jaunty is a warm light-medium beige shade with a gorgeous frosty sheen to it, which makes it appear as a warm champagne to my eye.
As soon as I swatched Jaunty I knew that it would fill a void in my collection for another perfect 'all over the lid' eyes, and would sit with Urban Decay Sin as that kind of colour very well.

I love the navy blue casing of the shadows in this collection, and have decided that I won't be depotting this one, despite it being harder to tote around that way.
The sheen on this is so lovely, and I found the colour payoff to be good, but not as buttery as Urban Decay shadows.
I love wearing this as a wash all over the lid, and either leaving it like that or popping a bit of Urban Decay Darkhorse into the crease. It works well with most other neutral shades, and I think a pop of bright along the lower lashline would work perfectly with Jaunty as well. I was so pleased to get this shadow 10% off at Myer with their recent sale!
Have you tried anything from the Hey Sailor! collection?
What are your favourite 'all over the lid' eyeshadows?

ReplyDelete@Priyanka it is such a classic colour, I'm so happy because I know it will really get used :)

@bbBeauty I cannot get over my love for the packaging, it's perfect for me! Jaunty is one of the most wearable shades I own, I'm so happy to have picked it up.
DeleteThe MAC Hey Sailor! Collection is probably the cutest packaging this year thus far!
ReplyDelete@Rose I totally agree! Sometimes they overdo the packaging for limited collections but I think they've done really well with the look of this collection.
DeleteJaunty's right up my alley! Did you swatch the highlighter? Too gorgeous!!!
ReplyDelete@Vita I didn't swatch the highlighter, it didn't look like something I'd use over my other highlighters so I was a good girl and stayed away :)
DeletePretty pretty! I wanted to buy the bright green in the collection, but told myself I already own too many shadows :(
ReplyDelete@Jerry I didn't even open the containers for the other shades, I knew I'd be too tempted and that I needed neutrals more than anything!
DeleteSo cute! I love the packaging on these!
ReplyDelete@Kimberley it is the cutest packaging :)
ReplyDeleteI was playing around with the products in this collection last weekend when I was shopping for my MAC liquid eyeliner. All very cute!.... Didn't buy anything, just made a mess on my wrist and the back of my hand haha!
ReplyDelete@Kimmy I was good for once and fell in love with this before looking at all of the others, so my hands remained relatively unscathed ;P
