M.A.C

Ive got a few new things from MAC recently so I thought I would use them for a few weeks and then do a little review on each.

1. Paint Pot in 'Painterly' £14.50

I wanted this to apply under my eyeshadows as a base, and this is the perfect colour for it! Its a nude so can be used as a universal base for all my eyeshadows. Its very creamy and blends nicely when put on, however it has been known that paint pots do start to dry out after a while (mine has not yet). I find that it makes my eyeshadow last all day without creasing (which for me does tend to happen when just applying eyeshadow straight onto my eyelids). I love.

2. Eye Pencil in 'Coffee' £12.50

I sometimes find that a black eyeliner is a bit to harsh on the eyes, especially during the day so I wanted this to use as a more subtle natural look. You can also thicken it up for a more smokey look for the evening. The pencil is also much longer than most other eyeliners and easily blend-able. I like.

3. Sheertone Blush in 'Blushbaby'

This is a mauve-pink that has tiny tiny flecks of shimmer (which I don't think shows up on the skin). It's really subtle and again I use it for a natural everyday look. It can also be used if you have heavy eye makeup on to balance it out on the face. I like.

4. Eyeshadow in 'Rice Paper' £12.00

This eyeshadow is a Frost and I'd describe it as a pale goldy-mauve champagne, which I really love to use on the inner half of my eyelids when i think brightens up my eyes. This eyeshadow can also be used as a highlighter. (It looks amazing on top of the Paint Pot I mentioned above). I love.

5. Lipstick in 'Angel' £13.50

A lipstick that everyone should own! This lipstick is a Frost which isn't my favourite finish, which is why I'm so late on the hype of this lipstick as I was kind of reluctant to get it. Its a  pale nudy-pink which suits everyone (supposedly). For me I'm not sure. Some days I think it suits me and other days I find it washes me out, however in the summer when I'm tanned I think it would suit me more and ill get more use out of it. Mixed feelings.

 


6. Lipstick in 'Girl About Town' £13.50

This is a darkish fuchsia pink that I love to wear in the evenings. Its an Amplifier, so a very 'out there' lipstick. It lasts long and doesn't dry out my lips. I love.

• What I really love about mac is that although its quite expensive, if you finish 6 MAC products and return them to MAC, you receive a free lipstick, which you get to pick!
