Mac x Patrickstarrr are back with another collaboration. This time they collaborated on two sets called Floral Realness Full Face Kit. I have one of them in Me So Fleek which comes with an eyeshadow quad, lipstick, lipglass and a powder blush duo.
Mac x Patrickstarrr Me So Fleek Floral Realness Full Face Kit comes in beautifully designed kaleidoscope floral packaging. Both the box and the packaging of the products is floral themed and screams spring to me.
His previous collaboration was really nice and everything performed really well so I wasn’t surprised that the new set will be as lovely.
The Mac x Patrickstarrr Me So Fleek Floral Realness Full Face Kit is the trendy version of the two. Me So Chic is the more natural set with shades that you would use for every day and Me So Fleek is still wearable in my opinion, but it comes with shades that are currently on trend.
The Mac x Patrickstarrr Me So Fleek Floral Realness Full Face Kit comes with:
Eye Shadow x 4 in Play With Me
Powder Blush Duo in Take Me Home
Retro Matte Lipstick in Hey Boy, Hey!
Lipglass in Queen P
The Eyeshadow x 4 in Play With Me has the following shades:
- In Living Pink: Pinky coral with gold shimmer (Frost)
- Hickie: Bright pink with shimmer (Frost)
- All’s Rosy : Dirty midtone pink (Matte)
- In The Shadows : Vibrant dark blue with shimmer (Frost)
The quality of the eyeshadows is really nice. They both swatch and perform well on the eyes. I think he did a good job with adding one matte shade that is also good as a crease shade. As for the shade selection, I think you can still do an everyday look by using the first two shades but easily go to nighttime with the pop of blue or bright pink.
As for the shade preference I don’t really use a lot of color on the eyes. But that blue shade is really stunning on the eyes and it’s right on trend. If you are scared of color you can always use the pops of color on the lower lash and create a more wearable look.
Swatches L to R: In Living Pink, All’s Rosy, Hickie, In The Shadows
The Powder Blush Duo in Take Me Home comes with a soft coral pink in satin finish and a muted pink plum in matte finish. I think the blush duo is the star of the kit and will suit most skin tones.
The pigmentation is amazing and I love both shades that come in the duo. I like that the pans are also large enough so you can use them individually or swirl them together for a custom shade.

When it comes to Mac lip products, there are hardly any misses for me. They are pretty consistent with the good quality and both products in this kit are really nice. It all really comes to shade preference.
The Retro Matte Lipstick in Hey Boy, Hey! is a stunning dirty pink plum shade. Since it is a spring collection I think it’s an unusual shade pick but I’ve seen a lot of plum shades on the runways so a lot of the fall colors are crossing to spring.
Queen P is a neon pink with blue pearl. I like the formula of Mac Lipglasses. They are on the sticky side but appear very glossy and the wear time is longer than your usual gloss.

Bottom line, it’s a pretty solid collection from Mac and a great value for the price. The Mac x Patrickstarrr Me So Fleek Floral Realness Full Face Kit is priced at $49.50 and it’s a $97 value. I do wish they had the products sold individually because I would definitely buy a back up of the Powder Blush Duo.
