M.A.C Fabulous Felines...
Meow! On September the 6th get into a M.A.C counter to express your catty side with Fabulous Felines. Burmese Beauty, Leopard Luxe and Palace Pedigreed is all about playing up those eyes in shades of rich greys, plums, ombre and amber. The key piece for this look - Superslick Liquid Eye Liner (left) boosts a magical new applicator which makes for super-precise application - plus 15 hour wear, water-resistant and a super-shiny finish. Which cat are you? I'm leaning towards Burmese with shades of sable, champagne and teak-olive.
