If I had that card, I'd definitely go for lip products. You can choose 3 lipsticks or a lip liner, lipstick, and a lip gloss for one particular look. It's up to you!

Defintely get Viva Glam V. It's the perfect color for everyday and pretty much goes for every look .. plus all the proceeds go to a good cause.

If you're looking for brow products, you can use an angled liner brush [MAC has the 266, but the Ecotools one is far better and way cheaper in my opinion] to apply eyeshadow to your brows. Same concept as the Anastasia kit.
For brunettes: Espresso is if you like a more natural look, Embark is for red-tone browns [use a light hand though, it's very pigmented] - I use both, depending on how light my hair is in the season... Brun is another good one, but also quite dark... better suited for black haired brunettes.
Shroom is a must have eyeshadow because it doubles as an eyeshadow color, and a face highlighting powder product. Finely milled, and I love double duty products. [Same goes for the brow colors I listed above - they're great for the crease!]
I am a super fan of their brushes though... so get a few eyebrushes! I wouldn't suggest the 266 as an angled liner brush though - only because Ecotools has an equivalent that is softer in synthetic hairs and applies MUCH nicer. Get their blacktrack fluidline gel liner w/ their MAC 263 angled liner brush to apply it with. I love that brush mos. def.!

Jul 14, 2011

I would recommend Creme Cup, Plink, Angel, Shy Girl if you're looking for a light pink lipstick.
As for eyeshadow brushes I would recommend 217, 224, 239
Hope this helps you! :)

Brushes are a gift that keeps on giving! Unlike blushes that run out and hit pan... they last you forever w/ good care, which is probably why I am so picky w/ them...
My favorite eyeshadow brushes are in no particular order:
217: blending/shading brush in one. Lays down dense color and blends.
224: lays down light washes of color for natural looks. Blends easier than 217
227: great for highlight/blending/laying down color on brow bone. Too big for detail work. Not necessary, but nice to have.
239: shader brush - a MUST have but dupable. I think it's the best quality VS the dupes because it picks up color easier.
219: pencil brush great for detailed creasework, setting eyeliner, smoking out dramatic looks.
Those are my favorite eye brushes. My favorite all in one face brush is the 138: the pointed/tapered powder brush. Perfect for a natural looking contour brush, lays down blush so easily in 1-2 sweeps and great as an all over powder brush. One of MAC's more expensive brushes, but I love that brush shape!
