MAC and Rihanna Collaborations have never really wowed me, but when I saw the shades in this palette, I just couldn't resist. Though it proved pretty hard to get hold of, selling out pretty quickly, I got lucky and managed to pick one up in duty free.
The Her Cocoa quad palette is made up of four new warm shades which as far as I am aware, don't have names. With the perfect looking palette costing of a bright Gold, a soft Peach, a warm antique Gold and a Chocolate Bronze, I really like it and with it holding a mixture of lustre (bright Gold and Chocolate Bronze), veluxe pearl (warm antique Gold) and satin (soft Peach) finishes, I find the shades all perfectly wearable, covering all bases for both day and night.
I don't have a favourite shade as I have been reaching for them all equally, but if I had to pick, I would probably choose between the warm antique Gold and the Chocolate Bronze, which is a dupe of one of my favourite MAC shades, Mulch.
Though I really do love this palette, the shallow packaging loving part of me can't quite come to terms with the limited edition Rose Gold packaging. The Rose Gold RiRi signature casing isn't really to my style and if I'm completely honest, in the future I might pop them into a standard MAC quad instead.
Packaging aside, I'm really pleased I managed to get hold of Her Cocoa and if your local counter has them in stock, then I definitely recommend that you pick one up.
Costing £33, the RiRi MAC Collection is available to buy on MACs online store, at MAC stand alone stores and at at counters in Selfridges, Debenhams and House of Fraser.
What do you think of the MAC and Rihanna collaboration? Do you like the the Her Cocoa quad?

I've heard the quality of this collection isn't that great but to be fair, with shades that beautiful, I don't think I'd care!
