The collection will also feature two face compacts, one for Fair skin which I have right here and there other for Medium / Deep skin.

So the one that you see swatched bellow feature:

• Extra Dimension Skinfinish Highlighter in String Lights
• Extra Dimension Blush in Sweater Weather
• Extra Dimension Bronzer in Five Alarm Kiss

I will post individual reviews as soon as I can but as a first impression I’ll say this. The pigmentation is average. I swatched the colors on bare skin and I’m sure you’ll agree that these will show mostly on fair and light skin tones. So basically if you are looking for something more natural, casual and meant for a fresh, daytime look this palette will do.

If you want more pigmentation, an intense color payoff or a beaming highlighter then I’d suggest the Extra Dimension Skinfinish Highlighters. They are both rich, pigmented and show off amazing even on bare skin. I personally prefer the Snowflushed version for that pink shift.

The other color, Oh Darling, I believe it has too much yellow and gold undertone for my preference. I definitely think that this one will complement medium and darker skin tones beautifully.

The packaging doesn’t need any further presentation I believe. To me it just screams holiday season and I love the pattern of the highlighters and palette.

I think I’ll say pass to the lip products and single eyeshadows from this collection and get my attention oriented towards the MAC Holiday 2018 Sets instead. 🙂
