Packaging:
The MAC x Brooke Candy Collection features some very interesting packaging. Unlike some MAC celebrity collaborations, the packaging of this collection is completely decked out! All the pieces have a reflective chrome finish printed with a ghoulish splatter and drip design so if you are a collector of MAC limited edition products, this range cannot be missed!

Formulation:
The MAC Brooke Candy Lipstick in "
Mind Control" ($22.50 CAD) is a beautiful cherry red. This shade features a pigmented amplified cream formulation that's both smooth and buttery. The finish has a nice shine and the color is very hydrating. Although the color is not very special, the badass packaging definitely makes up for it!
The Vamplify Lipgloss in "
Til Death Do Us Part" ($25.50) is a deep violet shimmer with an mostly opaque finish. This is a thick and pigmented gloss that certainly makes a statement. I find the formulation a tad sticky but the wear is better than your average gloss. However, I did experience some noticeable bleeding.
For my lip swatches below, I paired it with the Lip Pencil in "
Night Crawler" ($21.50 CAD), which is a unique eggplant purple. The formulation is slightly drying but the color is fairly pigmented.
