MAC Spring Colour Forecast & Other Stuffs Part III

And lastly in this bunch…

…I picked up some MAC staples which I’ve never had before, but really needed in my personal collection.

I picked up the ever so beautiful Up The Amp lipstick.  I also picked up two permanent eyeshadows in Saddle and in Bronze.

Here is a close up of my Up The Amp lipstick and a swatch.  I saw it on a girl on Specktra.net in an FOTD recently, who said it was her favorite MAC lipstick, whose skin tone was around an NC45 so I immediately added this lipstick to my shopping list.  I’ve seen Up The Amp on other girls, but not on women of color (where have I been?) so I was amazed at how beautiful it looked on her.  Price $14.00

Swatch!

Here are close ups of my eyeshadows (left is Saddle and on right is Bronze) and swatches (top is Bronze and bottom is Saddle).  And I was in desperate need of a blending eyeshadow so I finally picked up Saddle.  I bought Bronze by accident meaning I swatched it and immediatley like it because it caught my eye.  It’s a GREAT all over eyeshadow for when I need to go out in the evening and don’t have time to do my eye look properly. I  also do that with NARS Galapogos too, but that’s another story.  Price: $14.50 each

MAC Spring Colour Forecast & Other Stuffs Part I

Haulage alert!  This is my last haul before MAC Liberty of London collection comes out.  I can’t wait for that collection to come out because I see a lot that I want for myself.

Back on topic!  Here is my MAC Spring Colour Forecast and some other stuffs haul.

mac spring colour forecast viva glam haul

Let me start off with the most exciting products I bought the day after they came out.  I’m talking about Viva Glam GaGa and Viva Glam Cyndi!  I went in knowing I was getting Cyndi, but after looking at and swatching GaGa I knew it would look good on me…NC45/50.   Both lipsticks are lustre finishes.

I am very happy with my new lipsticks although I’ve only rocked GaGa so far.  Ha! GaGa goes on sheer so you have to build it up if you want a hotter look.  I don’t do that or I’ll look like a fool. I totally missed out on the limited edition MAC Viva Glam GaGa makeup bag for $25.00, but whatever.  I’m mad ‘cuz nobody told me.  :(

The packaging for these products are kind of cool both having the signatures of the musicians.  Pure love!  I kept my boxes.  :) Price:  $14.00 each
