MAC Mini Haul

I couldn’t help it. I had to go back and pick up Cinderfella mineralized eyeshadow. Before the MAC Style Black collection came out I just knew I would go for Young Punk and Blue Flame…but when I saw it in person I wasn’t in awe over it, but I did fall into awe over both Cinderfella and Gilt by Association. These eyeshadows are BEAUTIFUL and I am not crazy about MAC mineralized eyeshadows either. These two are just so unique. Had to have. HAD TO HAVE!!

I also picked up a couple of eyeshadows. I told myself that I will buy at least two eyeshadows every time I get paid to build up my collection. So I picked up Ricepaper and Sketch this time around.  I’m using Ricepaper as a highlighter and I just love love Sketch…beautiful matte, deep purple.

Love!  I’ve been using it in my crease and it just comes out so pretty on my skin.  Once I get a better camera I will start posting swatches…until then I can only show you what I bought.

Here are pics!

My MAC Halloween Day Haul

I’m oiling like an oil rigg these days so I had enough and decided to hit up the MAC store to finally try out MAC Blot pressed powder in Dark.  I really like it.  Anything is better than using a paper towel (pressing it over my face removes my makeup) or several blot sheets  (which gets expensive).  I really should try the loose powder instead because I think I’d like it better, but for portability reasons and to not mess up my purses by mistake, I went for the pressed powder.  I am not using the powder puff it came with because I can imagine it getting really dirty and oily and just plain nasty.  Gross.   Price: $21.00

I also picked up a mineralized eye shadow from the Style Black collection, which I said I wasn’t going to bother with but when I saw Gilt By Association I had to have it.  I thought I would have gone for Blue Flame because I love all MAC blue colors on me.  I am not a purply girl, but I will wear purple so I skipped Young Punk.  I think I may go back and get Cinderfella because it’s so me.  Gilt By Association just looks the best out of the four to me.  Price: $19.50

Lastly, I picked up two permanent eyeshadows.  The first one I picked up was MAC Plumage which is a dark blue whale type of color – that’s the best way I know to describe it.  Moby Dick like.  It is a matte color and it went well in my crease when I paired it up with MAC Silverthorn (LE) on my lid.

I also picked up the ever lovely MAC Antiqued which is a burnt orangey color…it is a great jewel tone for sure.  It is a veluxe pearl which means it’s easy to work with and it has some shimmer in it.  I love this color for when I want to tone it down, like today.  It was a rainy mess outside so instead of coming home looking like a racoon from the usual flashy colors I wear, I decided to bust out some MAC Antiqued, MAC Patina and MAC Dark Edge (LE) as a “Fall Seasony” look today.  Price:  $11.oo each (pan)
