Mac Lust Lipgloss

Yup, I'm wearing grey contacts in FreshLooks Colour Blends!

The Tutorial:

Cute-ster Lipstick : (Lustre) Peachy pink pearly neutral colour. I really wanted Marquise D' lipstick from the BBR collection but I went too late and all were sold out and I didn't feel like buying anything online either. :( So this made up for it! YAY! This also reminds me of Viva Glam V lipstick. Although, I'm not a big fan of so sheer - lustre lipsticks...I make exceptions for particular lipsticks. I also prefer Lavender Whip lipstick over Fashion Mews. It has much more colour. Again, I bought this mainly for the packaging.

Gosh...I'm loving neutral lustre lipsticks these days.....

Tahitian Sand Beauty Powder: Soft Coral Peachy Powder. I can't use this as a blush since it doesn't have much colour payoff but more of a blending powder during contour/blush/highlight. The MA actually just put it all over my face and set I can easily use this to set my foundation too. Of course, I mainly got it for the cute packaging!

YES!....I got the...

I applied this on without any primer and the flash took away the colour too! :(
These colours are really unique and since the palettes are limited edition, I had to grab one! :)

I got Mac pigment samples again. Milk pigment is from the Hello Kitty collection. Deep Blue Green pigment is actually from the permanent line. I also got Reflects Pink glitter, but it's lost somewhere. lol


I really wanted that lil Hello Kitty dollie but it's too pricey...lol I'd rather go to Chinatown and get a real Hello Kitty doll (the real white one...not the evil looking black Mac one...JK) ...but then again many would disagree and say this is different....It's MAC!

Also, I would love to get that brush holder. It's so cute! I didn't like the three brushes in it. I was looking at all three and they look very different from the original 187, 239 and 109. Obviously none of them were dense enough. The 239 was so big and fluffy, while the original one is thinner and silky smooth. The 109 brush didn't even look like the original one. It wasn't dense at all. I can't imagine using it for foundation application...it would be horrible!

Now, I shall calmly wait for the Grand Duo blush/msfs!!! :D

What I used:

Cetaphil Face Moisturizer
Mac Prep and Prime - Face Primer
Mac Studio Sculpt Foundation - NC 42 - Not bad but it's not liquidy it's more of a cream consistency and I don't recommend this for oily skin.
Mac Studio Sculpt Concealer - NW 35/30 & MUFE #10 Full Cover Concealer on top

Mac Bare Slimshine

Yup, I'm wearing grey contacts in FreshLooks Colour Blends!

The Tutorial: 

Nars Laguna Bronzer: This wasn't muddy on me. It's really about blending it out well. You can add some golden shimmer on top too. Mac bronzers are also good....ex. Refined Gold

Mac's 226 Crease Brush. This was sold out at many stores.

The generous MA at Mac pro gave me Silver Fog and Deep Purple Mac pigment samples.
He's the best!!! :)

Cobalt and Vibrant Grape Pro Eyeshadows!

The Swatches! :)

This is a staple of mines...Mac MSF Skinfinish Duo in Medium Dark! :) I love the shimmer side especially to get that golden glow.

I'm almost done my Select Spf liquid foundation so this was the best time to try out this new one out...Studio Sculpt Spf 15. I didn't wear it yet. I tested it on my hands and it has a gel type creamy consistency. It seems less yellow than the normal Studio Fix NC 42 and not as thick either. I heard this has medium texture and is buildable for heavier coverage if needed. It doesn't oxidize either and not too good for oily skin. So let's see how this works out for me.....

Mac's Angel lipstick was recomended to me by my friend. I was never a fan of frosty lipsticks but I was stunned by this one. It's a beautiful soft pink nude. I thought it would look weird or be too sheer on me or have this weird silverish frost to it. I hate silver reflected kind of lipsticks.

I always thought slimshines would never show up on my lips. I was surprised when I tried these out. I absolutely love Bare slimshine lipstick! It's like a light neutral pink with subtle gold pearl. It's isn't too sheer and gives this nice wet look with enough colour. Missy slimshine is gorgeous too! It's this beautiful creamy coral colour. One of my favourite coral lippies now. If you missed out on Heatherette's Sock Hop lipgloss, this would be a great alternative. Ultra Elegant slimshine is a toned down version.

This is Lavender Whip Creamsheen lipstick. Another pretty colour! It goes on very creamy and you can build the colour too. I thought I would never wear this kind of colour but this lavender shade is just too gorgeous! My store only had four left! WHOA! PRETTY DEMANDED EH!

I got these with Back 2 Mac. I had 12 empties so I got to choose two items. Either a lipgloss, lipstick or eyeshadow. I decided to make it worth it and so I took advantage and chose these since these were the most in value.

These are pretty sheer and I don't think it's really worth $21.50. It would be better just getting a normal Mac lipgloss. Even Dazzleglasses are much better than the Creamsheens Glasses.

I got Petite Indulgence. It was the one that had the most colour payoff on my lips and it had no shimmer, which is nice too. I got Melt In Your Mouth just to put on top of lipsticks for a tint/glaze.

NOW THE LIP SWATCHES!
