MAC Pro Longwear Foundation and Concealer

Three words. I … LOVE … THEM! I love this new duo from MAC, Pro Longwear Foundation and Concealer. Since Fall flew on in I’ve been looking for another foundation because I didn’t want to go back to Make Up For Ever Mat Velvet which is a fine foundation, it’s not on “holy grail” status with me. Throughout the Summer I was wearing Laura Mercier Oil-Free Tinted Moisturizer which is nice, provides a nice medium coverage, but because it’s not a “foundation” it doesn’t stay on the face all day long (all day for me is 8 hours at least). I started getting hyper-pigmentation again so I started mixing it with MUFE Mat Velvet to get more coverage and I did that because I like the consistency of the Tinted Moisturizer and it helped from making my face look matte and nobody wants to look matte in the Summer…trifling to mix those two products, but I was frustrated and didn’t want to try another foundation until Fall so I stuck with that combo for the last part of Summer.

Haulage Before My Last Haul

Not sure what’s up with me, but I’m forgetting to post hauls.  I went on a drugstore / MAC haul maybe a week ago…a day before the haul I posted last.  Ha!  I also got a new Sonia Kashuk Fluffy Eyeshadow brush I forgot to post about as well and I love it.  I won’t post a pic of this because I just bought it one day.  OMG! This reminds me of the Studio Tools medium eyeshadow brush I picked up too.  LOL!  OK so I got two brushes from Target that I am not going to post about, but I’m letting you know that I have them and that I love the Sonia Kashuk brushes better than my one Studio Tools brush.  I honestly haven’t used my Studio Tools medium eyeshadow brush enough yet so I haven’t learned to love it.  I will let you know!  Price: $4.99 (Sonia) and $2.00 (Studio Tools)

OK…moving on!

I was out of eye makeup remover (what a tradegy when you don’t have any and you have to remove your makeup!) so I decided on Clean & Clear Eye Makeup Remover because 1.  I was at Walgreens so I couldn’t get the Target brand ha!, and 2. it was cheaper that Neutrogena Eye Makeup Remover by 2 bucks.  It works just like the Target Eye Makeup Remover brand. *shrugs*.  Price: $6.00

Walgreens had Maybelline products as a buy one get one half off so I decided on mascara.  I always wanted to try Colossal and Lash Stiletto mascaras so this was almost a good time (I like BOGO better, but oh well).  I’m in love with Colossal and will pass on the overrated Lash Stilletto because it’s just plain sloppy.  It’s not as sloppy as Rimmel, but it’s sloppy.  Colossal rates higher than the overly overly over rated CoverGirl Lash Blast mascara (which I have but don’t use anymore).  Price: sorry…I forgot what I paid, but it wasn’t much.

I was tired of wasting my MAC Studio Fix Fluid because I was pouring too much out.  Once I pour product on my hand, I do not put it back into the container do product is wasted.  So, to remedy the problem I went to get a foundation pump.  While I was there I thought I’d give that MAC Kohl Power Pencil in Feline, a repromote, from the Style Black collection a try.  I was reading on Specktra that it is the blackest black eye liner MAC has.  I love it.  I’ve been using it everyday since I got it and I will go back to get a back up because I love it so much.  Price: $5.00 (pump) and $14.50 (eye pencil)

Last Haul Before MAC Black & Dsquared Launches

Yep! My BFF and I hit up the CCO again for the 2nd time in two weeks. We won’t be back for a minute so it’s OK. Really. OK so here is what I got from my CCO and Fragrance Outlet (pics to follow)…

CCO:
-Two Fafi figures (I had one of them so why not have them all?)
-MSF Blonde
-MSF Redhead
-Spiced Chocolate Quad
-HK Pink Fish (backup)
-Viva Glam V lipglass
-Fafi Squeeze It Lipglass
-224 brush

Fragrance Outlet:
-NYX e/s trio in Tropical/Yellow/Lime Green (TS10)
-NYX blush in Cinnamon

The funny thing is that today I was telling my BFF about wanting a Spiced Chocolate quad so bad and once we were at the CCO she spotted it and went bananas. We both got a quad…there was only one left after we bought ours. Woot!

Also, the CCO had the Blonde, Brunette, Redhead MSFs in as new items so I got lucky there. I think that the Fafi Lipglass was always there, but I just spotted it today. I almost picked up a 165 and 134 brushes today. I think I’m going to go back on Saturday and get them. The 134 is the most expensive brush MAC has and my CCO has a few. They also have a bunch of 165s too which is being repromoted in the MAC Black collection launching at the end of this month. Sweet!

I’m still thinking about going to the MAC store and buying that 131 brush, but if I decide to try MAC Studio Fix Fluid foundation then I’m going to need a 187 brush. Hmmm. I am so used to Bare Minerals foundation and Bisque so I don’t know. Choices!

Enough of my rambling…here are pics of today’s haulage:

My next, next haul will be a fragrance and clothing haul for sure.
