Manicure Monday: MAC Maleficent "Flaming Rose"

Do you have Maleficent fever yet? I, for one, am in shivers admiring Angelina Jolie's stunning and untouchable appearance in the movie. MAC's recent collaboration with Disney's Maleficent includes several Maleficent-inspired beauty products but Flaming Rose polish especially stood out to me.

MAC's Flaming rose is a true neutral, bright red polish that is totally opaque and easy to apply in 2 coats. Here I used a base of butter LONDON Nail 999 base and topcoat.

I actually found it very easy to control this brush and get a clean cuticle line compared to other polish brands. And how cute is the bottle? I love how the black wings stand out against the red! As I mentioned before, this polish ran very neutral if not a tad bit on the cool side for a very clean look on the hands.

If you are interested in picking up Flaming Rose, it's still available now for a limited time at $17.50 via MACcosmetics.com. You can also find the same color (non-LE packaging) at Nordstrom and Selfridges.
