The MAC Quite Cute collection is the newest release for 2011 from the mega-cosmetics brand. The collection is inspired by sugary sweet treats and the cheerfulness of sunshine. Following the previous Jeanius and Tartan Tale collections, MAC has yet again included a little extra unique piece in its products. This time, the surprise comes in a shape of a heart, centered inside the Quite Cute blushes, which are the showcase of the latest collection.
This new limited-edition line contains three Mineralize blushes, three nail lacquers, a special set of eyelashes, five lipsticks, four Plushglass shades and three new shades of lip pencils. The most notable products would have to be the matte neon pink lipstick called Candy Yum-Yum and the Miss Behave Mineralize blush, which is a fantastic light beige accented with an adorable green heart.
