NEW MAC CONNECT IN COLOUR Eyeshadow Palette Review + 3 LOOKS | Steff's Beauty Stash

[@michalsimpson9988]

MAC is the brand that started my love for makeup. Thought your looks turned out beautifully 💙

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Happy to hear that!! For me it was Urban Decay.

[@alexfrytomlin4542]

Love these looks! 💚 I love MAC shadow formulas- I think you should try some MAC lipsticks! They are some of my favorite items from the brand. ❤

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Thanks for the tip!

[@terrilabeth]

Yay Steff! You took one for the team and I loved all 3 looks and I cannot wait to see the other palettes when they arrive! Thank You! 💗

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Then others arrived today but I probably won’t get to film with them until tomorrow evening.

[@terrilabeth]

@@SteffsBeautyStash that is okay, since they don’t seem to available anywhere? Go forth into the land of MAC neutrals with bravery Steff! Okay, so that was a bit much, drama filled, and no I am not drinking? 😂 💗

[@savanah1407]

I’m smitten by the packaging! 🤩 Thank you for the info and showing us the beautiful eye looks it can create

They need to put them back up ASAP! 🙏🏻

[@kristenclark82]

Ok so I picked up a few of these in store at my ulta today. They were fully stocked in most of them. So weird though cause they’re still not on the web site or MACs. How strange right?

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

You know I ended up returning the 6 pans (I never opened them) bcs they were no where to be found and I didn’t want to make a video on something that wasn’t available. I’m glad you spotted them in store though!

[@lpercival7820]

Very pretty steff have you picked up the elf glow bronzer and liquid glow blush

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

No not yet I don’t think they are available until Friday.

[@cindymorales408]

I think this palette looks great on you!!! I love mac eyeshadows because they always blend out beautifully. I love your eyes. You gave some great ideas for looks.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Thank you so much!! I wish they had this product in stock, I have no idea where it wenT

[@cindymorales408]

@Steff’s Beauty Stash I'm sure when they will come back out maybe it was a complete sell out . they do look great on you can't wait until we can purchase.

[@didigardenofbeauty7426]

Well go ahead Mac Cosmetics. These shadows perform very well. Look number three is my favorite💛

I was shocked!! Just like the thumbnail says!! Now they just need to put these back on Ulta’s site!

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I wish it was still available! Idk where it went!

[@makeup561]

You look absolutely stunning’ ❤ I haven’t bought Mac makeup in years-like 8 maybe? And it was a lipstick. Ugh too bad the some of the colors swatches dry. I am planning on buying three of the sextuplet palettes. I hope they aren’t dry! That green you used first is so beautiful!💚oh my goodness that green and blue is my fave look! I still cannot get over that all black lid with green you did a few videos ago. It was breathtaking! I also really like the purple second look! My second favorite was the third, that yellow was gorgeous!❤

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

They need to bring them back! Idk 🤷🏼‍♀️ where they went?!

@@SteffsBeautyStash oh yes, that is very strange! If I see any reason provided I will report back!

[@40racquel]

Hi, I love the wavy hair. The sunset look was my favorite. Do you get pr from Glamlite? The only reason I ask is because I've been trying to get a hold of them to discuss the palette That I bought and the issues with the shimmers, especially 1 in particular that a piece was like cut out. I asked another uploader but they won't answer me.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

No I don’t. I wish I did though!!

[@40racquel]

@@SteffsBeautyStash OK thank you anyways. You have a good night.

[@leahmiranda8359]

I was impressed with that palette. 😮 Very unexpected. Beautiful looks! I loved ALL three looks! I’m interested….🤭🫣😂

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

It needs to come back online!! Idk where it went!

[@chrissymoss514]

Years ago Mac was my go to brand, the shadow formula was so good. Over time, they've become "dated" boring, so seeing this palette is definitely a step in the right direction. If I'm correct, I think they brought in a well known (but I forget his name) and well respected guy - maybe this change is due to him??? Three gorgeous looks, I suppose they didn't notice the two different eye looks AGAIN at work 😅😅😅 Much love, 💜💙💜💙💜💙💜

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I don’t know who the man is, but I was pleasantly surprised to see this available. I think it’s sold out or they released it too early lol 😂

[@hampuss884]

Hello! I searched for Mac's creative director, Drew Elliott. I don't know him myself, is he the new guy? //Hanna.

[@SarahTones85]

This is such a fun pallet. It’s nice to see MAC branching out and going colorful but I’ll stick to my Indie shadows. I do love their complexion products… especially their blushes and highlighters. I’m def team first look, I’m a sucker for a green 💚

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I know what you mean. For this price we can totally get an awesome indie palette. I just wasn’t expecting this to be anything great. It’s actually pretty good.

[@plane4050]

Your makeup is definitely amazing, as always, but I LOVE your hair today!!

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Thank you!! This is what I call my beach hair lol 😂

[@bevyoung2009]

I didn't buy much from the Ulta 21 days of beauty. I did buy 2 small Nabla eyeshadow pallets, which were half price.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Those are good! Enjoy them!

[@avapodyl4954]

Where can we buy it?

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

They took it off of Ulta. I have a feeling it was released before it was suppose to be.

[@kerriwright4593]

I really love the second look.

Hallo Steff, so pretty. When I saw you take off look one I was no, I love that look then you put on that beautiful yellow and orange look. Thank you so much for this demo and look into this palette. I love the mac lipsticks, Mac stack mascara, and blushes. I even bought the new powder foundation I am still on the fence.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I know I hate removing the green looks lol! They are always my fave!! 💚💚

[@annamarie6879]

Hi Steff! New subscriber here. I think where MAC shines is with their lip and completion products. To me they are some of the best out there. The eyeshadows however have always been hit or miss especially palettes. They do some really nice single shadows during some holiday releases. Like the ones from from the Hypnotizing Holiday 2021. Yes, indie brands are great but can not be so easily accessible for the average consumer. Most people want to just go in store and buy and be done with it so I appreciate you doing this MAC review. Loved all 3 looks! Keep up the great work! ❤

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Welcome happy to have you here!! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us!! I agree, indie isn’t for everyone, and I totally understand the need to see and feel something in person. 🥰

[@vickimanager]

Wow - I love your looks!! The shadows looked like they blended out so easily. I buy so many MAC lipsticks, but I have literally never purchased their shadows. This one really tempts me. I have all of my new duo/multi chrome shadow palettes that I can pair back with it. But for pretty, wearable looks, this is a nice, well curated palette. Well done!

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Sounds like lipsticks are where it’s at for MAC. I think I only have 1 or 2. Gonna need to change that!

[@vickimanager]

@@SteffsBeautyStash Even after a huge declutter, I still have at least 50 MAC regular bullet tube lipsticks. That's not too much, right? 🤣

[@michellemakeuptutorials]

That is the one I want from the ones they released; I don't like their powder kiss mattes but I like the rest of their eyeshadow formulas:) I love the looks you created!! I think I want this palette lol

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Thanks so much!!!

[@LCx829]

I have this palette already called art library and bought during the holidays under Macs clearance page for $30. Mac is notorious for repackaging and moving the shades around with a new name.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Good to know! I’m not all that knowledgeable in MAC shadows.

[@ginaespinal3]

The palette you got is almost identical the only difference is that the shadows in this new palette have been reformulated and some shades where switched out. This new formula is more pigmented and blend like butter 🤩

[@LisaF_]

I’m looking forward to getting a few of these when they are released for real! This one looks great.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I know!! I’m not sure when they are returning?

[@Andi-Bee]

Wow... Mac! I can not remember the last time I used a Mac anything besides a lipglass... Stunning and shocked, in the best way! 🤯💜

[@Southernpeachxo]

Mac shadows haven’t been so great the last few year so I’m happy to see this was a good palette! I’m like you tho, I’ve never really been into Mac. I did just purchase the Mac foundation only bc I’ve always heard good things and it was on sale at Macys lol so I figured I’d finally try it. I haven’t tried it out yet but I’m excited to, hopefully soon! Beautiful looks as always!!

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I hope it works out great!! I know a lot of people love their foundation and powder.

[@bevyoung2009]

Your face and eyes are so stunning even without makeup. 😊

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

Oh thank you!😘

[@BlackCat-eb7ci]

MAC has some good products. Their mineral powder makeup is good, and I have many shadows, lipsticks, and blushes. The bright blue you used on the lower lashline reminds me of a MAC color from long ago, Electric Eel.

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I’m glad this performed well! I held on to the box for just in case but now I can toss it bcs it’s a keeper for me!

[@rachelrae860]

Back in the day Mac was the only makeup I used. They had a mascara called Zoom lash and I always got asked if I had fake lashes on. I'm so disappointed they did away with it. I can't wait to see the 6 pan shadows you know that's more my speed. I'm gonna pass on this palette but as always you make everything look amazing. I also used their Studio fix I'm not sure if it was just a powder or foundation powder but that's all I used for years until I discovered all the other ones out there like urban decay,,too faced,,benefit abh and I'll tell you this the Mac glosses is the only thing I wore but they are so small for the price then I found lip gloss from ABH and it's way bigger and cheaper and it's gorgeous

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I have been thinking of returning them since they aren’t available and idk when they are coming back. They are still in the box and that’s why I’m hesitant to even film with them bcs no one can buy them right now.

The only MAC shadows I've ever found interesting enough to buy were their single sparkle pots from the Christmas before last - I do like a few of their products, particularly the Stacks mascara - but I can take or leave this palette (though that green was sensational!).

[@audreycampbell9483]

Some of Mac products are good but the one eyeshadow palette I bought from them was horrible. You can get much better from color pop. Their mineral blushes are beautiful. They have a waterproof foundation in a black tube and that's actually pretty nice I was using it when I was teaching dance classes, you know sweating a lot. And their long wear concealer in a glass bottle is nice BUT if you drop that on the floor it will not only break into a million pieces but you will be cleaning up concealer for the next year. It's a mess I don't know why they don't put them in plastic. There's just so many better options from other companies, even drugstore companies. I know they're lip liners are famous but they are so dry and you can get good colors from NYX that have great staying power. I am very glad to see a brightly colored eye palette maybe they're going to wake up

[@SteffsBeautyStash]

I agree! That’s probably why I never bought them. This is one of the only ones that really caught my attention.
