I remember when I saw the promo shot for this collection, I immediately freaked out. Not only am I a huge fan of Ellie Goulding, but this collection was pretty much made for me. (How stunning does Ellie look in this photo?)
It’s basically a neutral lovers dream and the pieces are so wearable and perfect for every day. This collection launched TODAY on maccosmetics.com, Nordstrom.com & Macys.com.
Halcyon Nights Face Kit – Four warm toned shadows and a Cream Colour Base.
Shades include : Starry Eyed, You My Everything, Saddle & Hanging On | Cream Colour Base : This Love
I love that this palette has four GORGEOUS shades that work so well together. The shades are all warm toned and were very pigmented. I’m usually not a fan of cream and powder products together in one palette, but the fact that the cream base has it’s own compartment is pretty awesome.
This Love Cream Base
Swatches – Starry Eyed, You My Everything, Saddle, Hanging On
Powder Blush / Bronzer Duo in Hold My Breath – I am LOVING this duo! The blush is absolutely stunning and the bronze is the perfect shade of warmth for my skintone. I do wish the pans were split evenly though. Both shades were very pigmented and easy to apply on the skin.
Swatches
Lustre Drops in Pink Rebel – I believe these are in the permanent MAC line up and were re-promoted for this collection. These are actually my first Lustre Drops and I LOVE them! I added a few drops on my cheek bones and blended it in to give me a soft highlight. You can also add a few drops to your foundation.
Cremesheen Lipsticks in Only You & Without Your Love – The cremesheen formula is my FAVORITE from MAC so I was thrilled to see both of these. I love that these shades are easy to throw on during the day and really go well with a warm, bronzed eye look. They are mildly pigmented, but you do need 2 or 3 swipes to really build up the color on your lips
Only You : Muted Mid Toned Coral
Without Your Love : Warm Seashell Pink
PatentPolish in Revved : Described as a creamy peach, these PatentPolishes are perfect for layering with the lipsticks. I haven’t given the PatentPolish line much of a try, but I am definitely thinking of picking up a few more shades as I really love the formula of this one!

Revved, Only You, Without Your Love
Overall, I’m pretty much obsessed with this collection and may even pick up a few other pieces to complete the collection! It’s definitely right up my alley and represents Ellie’s style and look perfectly.

These shades are my jam so I def want to pick something up but the looks so dupeable and the lip colors aren’t unique. Maybe I’ll go for the bronzer/blush.
