Years ago, MAC released their iconic Venomous Villains Collection that made being bad feel so good. Unfortunately, I wasn’t really into makeup so I completely missed out. I was hoping to get my thrills from the Maleficent and Cinderella collections but they didn’t seem nearly as nice as Venomous Villains.

Thanks to Walgreens, I get to bring out my dark side just in time for Halloween with their exclusive new limited edition Disney Villains Collection for fall. I recently came across a huge display of lipsticks, brushes and more all donning some of our fave Disney Villains.

There’s 3 lipsticks in the collection including:

• Evil Queen Potion Lipstick  bright warm red
• Maleficent Dragon’s Lair Lipstick deep brick red
• Ursula Majestic Lipstick bright cool red

They’re all reds, of course, but I picked them all up anyway because they’re freaking adorable. Who could really resist?? I was itching to get my hands on Maleficent’s Dragon Lair because I live for deep brown-reds and it looks like the perfect fall/winter red lip. I was on the fence when it came to Potion and Majestic though. They’re both very bright and they look pretty similar too. Here’s to hoping I like them a little better once I try them on.

The first time I went to Walgreens I didn’t even notice this set. Crazy right? Leave it to Instagram to show it to me and have me running back for it. I can’t say I regret the enabling this time because the Maleficent Vixen’s Kiss Lip Color Set looks quite nice.

There’s 3 chubby pencils: a bright violet, fuchsia pink and vibrant berry. They’re all rather flattering shades that’ll work on a variety of complexions–even us chocolate divas. I do wish they were individually named but I’m really digging the colors and they swatched pretty well so I’m looking forward to trying them.

Believe it or not, I was the most excited for the Evil Queen’s Jealous Blush. It’s a bright warm coral with chunky golden shimmer that looks like it’ll work well on my complexion. I’ve wanted the MAC Bite of An Apple Blush ever since I came across the Venomous Villains collection so it’s nice to finally get my hands on something similar.

Jealous Blush seems to be a little lighter and a tad powdery but if it shows up well on me I’ll definitely be tossing it into rotation. I have a feeling it will work well though. It reminds me of NARS Orgasm a bit except it’s a lot more pigmented so fingers crossed!

Last but not least, I snatched up the Ursula Leviathan Shimmer Powder. It has a very sheer white base and loads of iridescent micro-glitter. The first thing I thought was, “This would look amazing in my inner corners!” I could definitely see this baby brightening up my eyes or making a statement all over the lid. It’s flat out gorgeous in person!
