So I got my stuff on Friday last week which I was pretty happy with, then went to the Cambridge shop on saturday to check out the rest of the collection which I wasn't sure of the colours for, and to do my first 'back to mac'! Back to MAC is when you take them 6 used up containers and they give you a free lipstick for it. I took back ..
empty select foundation in NC30, it's too dark for me now it's not summer anymore so I just finished it in time
An ancient barbie loves MAC lipglass in sweetness which I've been obsessively trying to use up for this purpose
My liquid liner in boot black, had to replace with Barry M liquid liner which is actually pretty much the same
Dazzleglass mascara
why do mascaras either run out or go off so fast
Naked Lunch eyeshadow, that was well and truly gone
and an old mineralize eyeshadow from probably 3 years ago so just as well thats out the way now.
And in exchange i have the preeety 'politely pink' lipstick
It's a lustre finish so quite sheer, and I got 'nymphette' lipglass which i've wanted ages, it's a peachy pink with gold pearl. Here's the two swatched on my hand:
And I look a bit bewildered in this one but it's me wearing the new blush with the lip products:
I also got the black perfume, catchily named 'MV3' it's lovely, really rich and earthy smelling, kind of spicy. A man could totally wear it, it reminds me of having one around which is probably why I like it!
From the holiday collection I got superdupernatural blush, which i love, partial to pink cremesheen gloss which i also like a lot and midnight madness duo eyeshadow. The blush is very pigmented and the shadow is very sparkly but they are both fab.
I tried to do this look http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/looks/look.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT25208 from the MAC looks board which came out really well but as it was dark and my camera phone only has 3mgp camera on it the photos didn't come out as good as it actually looked.







On the picture of the back of your hand which is the lipstick on the left? Is it nymphette?
it's gorgeous.
