Now, if you’re me, your first reaction to finding out about the new MAC Brooke Candy collection might have been, “Who the heck is Brooke Candy?” (I had to Google her.) I gotta hand it to MAC, because following their limited edition collaborations has been a good education in cutting-edge pop culture. My playlists are ever-expanding with new artists and performers.
I still have to listen to some of Brooke’s beats, but she seems kinda edgy…kinda raunchy, but raunchy can be hella entertaining sometimes (i.e. Lil’ Kim).
The new three-piece limited edition MAC Brooke Candy mini release arrives exclusively on the MAC website August 27, and since there are only three products, there’s not a lot to it — just two lipsticks and a liquid eye liner.
The lipsticks have an interesting formula called Amplified Cream, which is a little creamier and shinier than the regular Amplifieds, which I love, but the liquid eye liner, Boot Black, hmm… Of all the MAC liquid liner options, it’s my least favorite. Sucks that I can never get a crisp line with it, and it makes me feel like a 3-year-old trying to do liquid liner, or like liquid liner was put on this earth to torture me (“Liquid liner is your enemy, not your friend!”).
But I digress…
Let’s start the video! 🙂
Products Mentioned
- Amplified Creme Lipstick in Mind Control, a bright cherry red ($17)

As always, thank ya bunches for watching.
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Which Witch has me intrigued…..is it a wearable shade or not????
You’ve definitely got my attention with Mind control. It looks gorgeous!
I really like the lipsticks, they both look bold and Which Witch is an interesting take on plummy black.
I mean these is the nicest way but your voice is so much more high pitched than I imagined. Not high pitched in any bad way of course your voice is so pretty 🙂
Thank you for doing this review I was hoping to see something on it before it came out because though I have no clue who Brooke Candy is I think Which Witch looked so interesting.
Hi Tracey,
I get this comment a lot! I guess people think that my voice sounds deep when they read my writing? What’s funny to me is that the voice that I hear in my head is completely different than the one I hear when I see myself in videos. Maybe I write with a deep voice, LOL! Anyway, Brooke Candy! If you do get Which Witch you’ll need a liner. It’s very creamy and needs something to stick to.
Hope you had a nice Tuesday!
Your voice calms me. I watch your YouTube videos and am immediately calm and happy. Me on the other hand…I sound like Lindsey Lohan!
Ohhh I LIKE that Which Witch…very, very muchly.
I saw this on Instagram and went “O.M.G. I WANT.” Haha now, however, that I have calmed down and watched your video, I think I can keep myself from spending. It’s a shame that the tube doesn’t match the box, otherwise I think more people would be all over that shiz — it is some seriously cool packaging.
Loved the little tail cameo from Sir Tabsalot! I thought the sound of him on his scratch post was actually him trying to tap your keyboard!
I’ve never heard of Brooke Candy. I like the design on box. I wish the same design were on the lipstick tubes. The shades are nice, but not unique. I think I’ll pass.
Which Witch is stunning on you Karen! I love the shade but I’m just not a fan of Amplifieds 🙁
I’ve never heard of her either! And I’m shocked this is the first MAC LE collection that I have to pass on. 🙁
Which Witch is PERFECT for Halloween! It looks like it would be a little too dark for my complexion (ghostly pale), but I think I could make it work. 🙂
Which Witch looks awesome on you. I don’t think I could pull it off, even on Halloween, but you could wear it to TJ’s! It’s a really great color!
I couldn’t tell you who the heck Brooke Candy is either but the promo pic is sick and Which Witch looks hella sexy on you! This collection completely slipped my radar but I may need that lipstick
Hi ! i always visit your blog i love it. Can you tell me wich blush are you wearing on this video?? I loved it ! it looks amazing on you 🙂
