MAC Young Punk & Gilt by Association

Lately I haven't been keeping up with MAC collections so when I saw these these two colors at Nordstrom I was really surprised. For me Young Punk was "the one that got away". The collection these two originally came out in, Style Black, was in 2009 when I was barely getting into makeup. Because most of MAC's shadows only releasing for a limited time by the time I realized I wanted this it was already sold out. They were recently re-released along with other mineralize shadows and I am so glad I was able to pick these two shades up. Mineralize eyeshadows work best applied with a damp brush to get the most color payoff. In the pictures I swatched the shadows both wet and dry so you could see the difference. The colors are a lot more vibrant when wet and the colors get lost in the black base when used dry.
