Nothing gets me more excited than a palette, a solid edit of colors of all shades housed in one simple, travel friendly space. And let me tell you all the MAC Cosmetics Spring Trend Forecast Lip Palette is just that. Six amazingly gorgeous shades in the simple, sleek black MAC palette packaging. Sooooooo when Spring kicked into high gear this past week, I decided it was time to break out something I like to call Spring Lips: MAC Style….
Every major fashion week season since 2011 MAC Cosmetics has come out with a solid Trend Forecast palette. It is almost like a bit of a insight into the blend of the fashion and beauty world combined. Runway trends utilized by all key artists in major shows, with their picks of color housed in one solid palette. Score. I mean who wouldnt want to be on trend with the latest and greatest going on at fashion week? The official start of Spring for me also meant time to break out of the deep shades of berry and start to focus a bit more on Spring Lips, and I thought what better way to do that- then bring out the big guns. Time to showcase a beauty of a lip palette from the MAC Cosmetics SS 14 Trend Forecast palette.
Shades of golden peach, pearlescent to a bit of lilac love- this palette is hands down amazingness. Six solid shades of gorgeous all picked to be on the lips of some of the worlds elite- hello Cara and Chanel Iman. This palette contains alittle bit of something for everyone. Limited Edition, and perfect in formulas, this palette is stunning. Here is the rundown of the shades:
Trendy Twist– a lovely light peachy nude color. Semi reminds me of MAC Myth but definitely not as pale in color mixed with a bit of MAC Japanese Maple but a bit more golden nude.
Pick Me Up Pink– A gorgeous light pink. Super similar to MAC Please Me which is a favorite shade of mine. Semi a bit of a light but bright pink shade. Please make this one permanent.
April Flowers– This is one of my favorite shades of the bunch. It is a gorgeous color that is a stunning coral like pink shades that is bright yet light if that is even possible. Reminds me of MAC Morange but a bit lighter in shade. It is seriously AMAZING and if you are listening MAC- make this permanent ASAP.
Spring Fling- A mauve like pink in tone that probably is the most versatile color ever. It literally can probably work on almost any skintone. Very much reminds me of MidiMauve but a bit more pink in color. It is like if the cream colour base shade Tint had a baby with MidiMauve lipstick. Seriously GORGEOUS!!
In the Mode– In the Mode if a superb color as well. I was a bit surprised I like this shade, since I am not usually a fan of reds on me. But something about this medium tones red shade, just works. It reminds me of RiRi Woo mixed with a bit of Viva Glam I. A bright red, that just looks super glam and works on all skintones.
New Groove– This last shade of the palette is a super surprising shade. It is a pinkish-brown shade. Very reminiscent of every shade that I tend to flock towards when choosing lipstick. However it is a subtle ‘your lips but better’ shade mixed with a bit of pink to the mix. Sorta like if Viva Glam V, Angel and Patesserie had a love child. I love this shade and it is super versatile and works well with all the other shades as well as a great mix in or a base for the shades.
So here is the bad news, the palette is currently sold out worldwide, so if you really want to try it you may have to swing over to ebay or Amazon.com to check and see if it is available. However currently on MAC’s website they are selling the Fall 14 Trend Palette which is seriously gorgeous-review coming soon. All in all, if you can get your hands on one, then it is a major must have for some solid Spring lip action.

I love palettes… but no lippie ones! I’ve never been able to get into them. Give me a tube or a stick, and I’m all about them. Glad you found something you love that has all the colors you want for this spring, though!
Jamie says
Ha ha… I am usually the same way. I am not a huge lip palette fan at all. I am just like you, a lipstick tube girl. I am obsessed with this palette though for some reason, and soooo wish I bought a few. lol

I’m not a huge fan of lippie palettes, but I would love to own some of these colors in a normal lippie packaging. That coral is just… Perfect!!

That coral is AMAZING!!! I wish they would make it a permanent shade ASAP. lol…. But knowing MAC I am sure they will so bring it out in a limited edition collection. lol
