MAC Kelly & Sharon Osbourne Collection Swatches

For the month of June, Mac collaborated with the lovely Osbourne ladies to create two distinctly different makeup collections. The Sharon Osbourne collection contains a lot of warm, neutral colors while the Kelly Osbourne collection contains a lot of bold, cool toned pastels. The colors in both collections were spot on and matched each ladies beauty personality perfectly.
The products in the Osbourne collection have been selling out within minutes of their release, both in-store and online. From what I could tell the Kelly lipsticks were in high demand and sold out immediately.
 
Lipsticks from L-R
  • Strip Poker (light nude matte)
  • Riot House (light vivid orange matte)
  • Dodgy Girl (light lavender matte)
  • Kelly Yum Yum (bright blue pink satin)
 
Sharon Osbourne Duchess Eyeshadow Quad
  • Sweet Eyes (light golden nude)
  • Sexy Eyes (soft warm bronze)
  • Femme Fatale (golden brown)
  • Embark (dark reddish brown)
 
Kelly Osbourne Bloody Brilliant Eyeshadow Quad
  • Spoonful of Sugar (sparkling platinum)
  • Tickety Boo (soft muted plum brown)
  • Fizzy Rose (pale lilac)
  • Shadowy Lady (matte blackened plum)
 
* I really wanted to love all the colors in this collection however I was underwhelmed once I had a chance to swatch them. Mac did a great job matching each lady to the collection however I was a little disappointed in regards to the quality, formula, and color payoff for some of the products. The two nude lipstick colors could have had a better formula and the payoff for the Kelly eye shadow palette just doesn't compare to normal MAC eye shadows. I had to swatch the colors in the palette a few times just so that they would show.
 
If you are interested in any of the items from the Osbourne collection I do know that there are some products still left online but its slim pickings. The MAC, Macy's, and Nordstrom websites all have a few pieces from the collection still left.
