I've been wearing this foundation for a while. I now only wear it when I have a photoshoot because it's too heavy for everyday. It is very heavy on my face and I feel it doesn't look natural. I always seem to break out after a while (after using it). It does serve it's purpose and looks great on film but not for everyday.
Pros:great on film, perfect looking skin Cons:pimples, too heavy
When i'm in the mood to look like a barbie doll, this is the lip gloss. I feel like the only black barbie. Dark eye liner and pink lips. this makes my lip peel at the end of the day but it's a once in a blue thing. so
Pros:cute girl-barbie doll look. Color is visible Cons:peelling lip at the end of the day on occassion
This was my first MAC brush, and it really disappointed me. The quality was good. It looks and feels well made. But it didn't apply my shadows well at all. In fact most of my shadow stuck to my brush. My cheapie brushes did a better job. I ended up selling my brush. This just didn't work for me.
I have a friend who just raved and raved about MAC Cosmetics so I gave in and decided to try one of their foundations. From the get go I was not impressed. The makeup artist picked a color that was way too dark and I ended up picking out a lighter one myself and applying it with them watching because my skill was better than theirs. Even the lightest one was a little too dark making it hard to blend effectively into the jawline. Like an idiot I thought it was just the harsh store lighting but color looked worse outside! I echo many reviews in saying that this product is very yellow!! Not for us pale girls at all! Coloring issues aside it does provide nice coverage for a short time, but I found that it tends to slide around and clump together if you don't reapply powder several times a day. I am sad to say that I would NOT recommend this product, and I had such high hopes!!!!
mac liquid eyeliner is the best eyeliner i have EVER tried.. i have tried so many . . from drugstore brands to high end ones.. i recently tried using clinique liquid eye liner and dont like it as much .. mac eyeliner just glides all in one stroke i love it .
Pros:easy to apply Cons:some people may not like felt tip eyeliners
i absolutely love this brush! it serves as so many different functions- from applying liquid foundation (giving it an airbrushed look), to applying blushes. the price is kind of expensive but it is worth it! i have two of these brushes!
This is from the Sonic Chic collection. It is a nice, subtle pink. I have light to medium warm toned skin, and I find this gives my cheeks a natural look. It gives a nice glow without being glittery. I don't find this blush to be all that pigmented. It doesn't last me all day, so I find mid-day I have to touch up my blush. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't mind using it with a base or something to ensure it lasts all day, but if you planned on using this alone then maybe this isn't the blush for you. I would not repurchase, simply because I felt this blush didn't live up to my expectations. I would prefer it be more pigmented, and last longer. This blush is pretty, but it's mediocre performance keeps me from truly loving this blush.
Pros:Natural pink, nice glow, blends nicely Cons:Not very pigmented, doesn't last all day
This color is a lovely blue color. I had bought this two times now and it has never failed me. Every girl has to definitely have this in their collection. :) some people may not justify paying 14 dollars on an eyeshadow but this is definitely worth it.
I love this blush. It contains no shimmer at all and is very matte. i think this is a wonderful product and it looks really good on my skin and gives me a healthy looking glow!
M·A·C 'Mineralize' Skinfinish Duo I just bought this in light and love it. It adds a perfect shimer to my fair skin. I use it over high beam by Benefit.
Pros:It is a large compact and easy to use. Cons:no mirror
Star Violet is a plummy brown with a hint of pink. It's gorgeous and very easy to blend. I love using it with purples. I'd say it goes on a bit lighter than it looks in the pan. I would repurchase when I run out.
Expensive Pink is a golden peachy pink. I absolutely love the texture of the Veluxe Pearls. I get a lot of use out of this...it looks good with a lot of different colors. A friend of mine who is very fair skinned says that this goes on too orange on her, so I can see that it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, but I would certainly repurchase.
Pros:wonderful veluxe pearl texture-great summer color Cons:can be too orangey for some skintones
Underage is a very light milky pink. It's perfect for toning down my natural lip color. It's gorgeous with smoky eyes. If applied heavily it may end up looking too milky though. It's the perfect baby pink in my eyes, and I will continue repurchasing this.
Pros:Sexy baby pink perfect for smoky eyes Cons:Goopy/milky looking if overapplied
Sunbasque is a shimmery peachy bronze. It's one of my staples during the summer. I find it pretty pigmented so I use my Flirt! Feather Dust-her brush to apply it when I'm less tanned to warm up my complexion. The shimmer isn't garish, it gives a nice glow. I'd definitely repurchase.
Pros:Beautiful natural color when I'm tanned/warms up my paler winter complexion. Cons:
Pink Swoon is a very soft matte pink. It gives a beautiful pink flush, and I love how this looks with a smoky eye. I never have to worry about over applying when it comes to this one.
Viva Glam V is a little darker than a MLBB color, but it is lovely. It's a very pretty pinky brown that looks good with practically any kind of eye makeup. It is great pigment-wise so the color you see in the tube is what you'll get when you put it on. I'd definitely repurchase.
Poco Pink looked lovely when I saw it in the tube, and I don't really dislike it...it's just far from being a favorite. While it looks pinky gold, I only saw gold when I put it on. It was soft enough that it still looked alright, but I was hoping for more pink to show up. The laquers don't last as long as the lipglasses on me. I wouldn't repurchase this, but I'll continue using this because I like using it over my pink lipsticks to warm up the color.
Pros:A lot of product for about 3 dollars more than lipglasses Cons:More gold than pinky gold on me...staying power not as good as w/ lipglass
