Beautiful Color

I love MAC shadows, some more than others-I find shades like Naked Lunch, Sweet Lust and Honesty to be horribly pigmented, but there are so many other beautiful shades that make up for the lemons of the line. My favorite colors are Retrospeck, Jest, Tempting, Phloof!, and a few other limited edition colors like Grand Entrance, Glamour Check! and Go. But my all time favorite color has got to be Satin Taupe, its silky and pigmented, applies beautiful and is gorgeous as an all over lid color or crease color. Absolutely love it!

Great Powder

This was my first "nice" powder I had ever tried, and I really was in love with it-now that I have tried other powders, I have found better but I still think this is great. It works pretty nicely at maintaining a natural looking complexion, and has pretty decent coverage. But I wouldn't say this is a holy grail product for me. I do think this is a great powder for something who either only needs a little bit of coverage, or plans to use this to set foundation, and also someone with normal to slightly oily skin. For those of you with very oily skin like me, you may find that after a few hours your makeup is sliding off your face...not a good look.

Prettiest Cream Shadow

I love the MAC Paint Pots, they come in gorgeous colors, they're really silky and smooth and easy to blend, and they also have fantastic staying power! I find in most situations they are all I need to prevent creasing for up to even 10-12 hours! Bare Study is my absolute favorite color of any cream shadow-its a gorgeous champage color but it also seems to have slight hints of pink or copper that makes it stand aside from other cream shadows! Beautiful!

Best Powder Foundation

I've tried a lot of powder foundations from Bare Minerals to Makeup Forever to Nars, and this one is my favorite! It's very silky feeling so its blends effortlessly into the skin! The coverage is great and I find that if it looks cakey, it can be solved by just buffing it in a little more-its fool proof! Great color selection, and its about $30 which is a little pricey, but less expensive than Makeup Forever ($32) or Nars ($45!) and perform better as well!
