I know October is WAY to early to be discussing Christmas, but we just couldn't resist sharing what MAC has in store for the holiday season. This year they've gone all Balmoral on us — not the beach, but the Queen's holiday home in Bonnie Scutland. I LOVE it. But I do have Scottish heritage so may be a wee bit biased. Even you don't need to own a kilt to get excited about these limited editions — there's plenty of tartan to go around, and as always, heaps of goodwill spread through your purchase. Standout pieces included the Noble Sir Teddy ($48) and 'Tis Noble to Give Viva Glam Lip Bag ($80). All proceeds from the Viva Glam set go towards helping those affected by AIDS/HIV and the bag would make a très chic coin purse, too.
MAC's A Tartan Tale Collection pieces will be available from November 1. Stockists: 1800 061 326.
