I am loving that these shadows come in a larger 0.11 oz size, which is just over twice the size of a normal MAC eyeshadow, though they are also more expensive.

Mating Call, Odalisque

Both of these shadows are really pretty pigmented, but especially Odalisque.

Mating Call is a great muted violet shade with a really cool reflective sheen.

Odalisque is a very deep blue/teal that seems very oceanic to me.

Neither really gave off a super “metal” feeling to me, more like a mild metallic finish. Maybe some of the other gold/bronze/silver colors look more chrome-like.

Overall:

Hard to say having judged just two out of fifteen colors, but these ones are both gorgeous colors that I would wear. They feel soft and are really saturated, so I am definitely interested in checking out some of the others now!

These will be available on January 6th in North America and February Internationally, and will retail for $19.50.

What do you think about Mating Call and Odalisque?

  • These look like they have just enough sheen that I may check them out. The one piece of this collection that I’m really curious to see is the blue Kissable Lipcolor. I’m wondering just how blue it is.

  • I find myself being attracted to colors like Odalisque a lot. This a great color if you have brown eyes like I do.

  • I didn’t think the eyeshadows looked that great initially, but after seeing your swatches, I changed my mind. I think the sheen adds a special touch to the colors.

  • I love Odalique, Mating Call not so much, but I generally don’t like pink eyeshadow.

  • Odalisque is perfect! And ‘forest green’ sounds like a perfect description. I’ll be MAC hunting in January, then. :D

    Where have I been? I didn’t know about this collection either…MAC is kicking the year off right, IMO. Beautiful shadows. Can’t wait for the rest!
