Wonder Woman to the Rescue

Right so it has been a while.... I have been so busy; I have not had a minute to write anything.  And I’m so excited posted my first Video blog last weekend, so go check it out ... @ http://www.youtube.com/user/BajanFrutee25?feature=mhum
Anyway, so I been waiting absolutely ages for the Wonder Woman to launch here, and finally about 2 maybe 3 weeks ago it’s come out....  J
My favourite out of the 3 eye shadow palettes is Lady Justice, although Valiant could also squeeze into 1st place as well.  I have yet to purchase Defiance.
 I’m quite impressed with the packaging for Wonder Woman, very bright, an in your face red and it’s my favourite colour too, so 2 thumbs’ up... A lot of other blogs and v/blogs I have read or watched people seem to be slating the packaging but I absolutely love it. 
So starting with Lady Justice, it has four colours in the palette which include Bold Babe, Deep Truth, Insurmountable and last but not least Lady Justice.  These colours are really Smokey, sultry and sexy.  With all MAC eye shadows I find you must use a primer or the colour does not show very well and this is the case as well with the Lady Justice and Valiant.  
One of the colour ways in which you can layer the colours are by first using Bold Babe all over the eyelid to the crease line and blend out, then using the lady justice colour under the eyebrow and Insurmountable on the brow bone just under where you placed Lady Justice.  Blend them downwards towards the Bold Babe. Now at the corner of your eyelid add a little of the Deep Truth and blend that evenly into the Bold Babe and into your crease line.  
Then take a gold coloured eye shadow, anyone would do, and put a light brush of that on top of the Deep Truth and blend that in as well. Then, using the usual black kohl eyeliner on the waterline, waterline under eyelash (tight line). Also use mascara on eyelashes, my fav mascara at the moment is Maybelline Falsies Volume Express.   
To finish of this flirtatious look off, I used Mighty Aphrodite blusher on the cheeks. This is one of the two new blushes (the other being Amazon Princess, which has completely sold out on Mac cosmetics), also part of the Wonder Woman collection. It’s a two coloured compact containing a peach colour and pink.  I find with that blusher a little goes a long way, so you only need to swipe your brush through it once.  I also used a little Ambering Rose blusher also by MAC on top of the Mighty Aphrodite.  The Ambering Rose gives the cheeks a little more of a golden glow.
On my lips I used a mix of three M.A.C lippys, yes 3 but it works nicely... So I used Viva Glam 2 Lady Gaga edition, this colour is a very pale nude colour, for my complexion I found it very palebut after a little blot I put Marquise'd on top, from the new M.A.C collection, this colour is also a nude colour but not as pale as the Viva Glam 2, it has a slight brown tint to it. The third and final colour was Pink Friday, the very pale bright pink, the limited edition collabo from Nicki Minaj and M.A.C. The colours mixed together look uber sexy. even if you think the pink is going to be too bright for your complexion, what I done was mix a bit of deep pink lip pencil just before I added the Pink Friday lipstick & it looked absolutely gorgeous...
I’m going to add pictures of the look in another blog, because I’m such a nutcase I have misplaced the wires for my Camera, so I can’t download them onto my computer. *ROLLSEYES*
But on a whole, I love the collection it is definately something to get your mitts on if you loves make up like I do...
