MAC


This post is going to be about MAC products that I am absolutely loving right now.  Besides Benefit, MAC is probably my number one go to when it comes to make up.  Their eye shadows are highly pigmented, their lip gloss come in all different colors, and their concealer is one of the BEST!  So basically I just love me some MAC and want to share with you some of the products I am currently loving!

Crèmeblend Blush- This is a creamy blush that comes out silky smooth on your skin and is extremely easy to blend.  What I love about this blush is that it is very understated, it just gives your cheeks a little flush of color without a powdery look which is something I am always looking for in a blush!  It is a very natural finish, and gives you sort of a dewey, fresh look.  It comes in 6 different colors ranging from bright pink to neutral.  Right now I am loving Lady Blush because it gives my cheeks just the right amount of color without looking like I overdid it.  Make sure you are using the right kind of brush when you apply this.  I use the F84 Angled Kabuki brush by Sigma and it works perfectly!  Don't be scared by the brightness of these colors, they do NOT come out as bright as they look in the pot.  $20 for blush and $16 for the Angled Brush

Paint Pots- This is a highly pigmented eye color that comes out creamy but dries to an intense and vibrant finish.  It does not look cakey nor does it crease which is awesome.   This is also a great product to use if you do not have an eye shadow primer.  Put this on your lids first, and this will hold your eye shadow in place all day long.  Right now I am loving Bare Study which is a neutral color with a little bit of shimmer to it.  It looks amazing by itself, but looks even more dramatic when you layer a MAC eye shadow over it.  When I do choose to layer a shadow over it I love Mac’s Naked Lunch which is also a neutral color with some shimmer to it and looks absolutely amazing when paired with Bare Study.  $17.50


Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 – This stuff is heaven on EARTH!  When I am looking for a step up from my Baby Lips this is what I reach for.  It is a silky smooth formula that glides onto your lips and gives them a little wash of color, but nothing too extreme, seriously just looks perfect on.  It is formulated with Almond Oil, Shea Butter, Avocado Extract, Vitamin E and A.  It truly conditions your lips, locks in moisture, and leaves them feeling smooth.  Right now I am loving Petting Pink, which is a beautiful neutral pink that makes your lips look amazing.  $15


Fix+ - This is an aqua spritz of vitamin and minerals infused with calm the skin blend of green tea, chamomile, cucumber, topped off with the fresh, natural and energizing scent of Sugi.  It adds radiance, while taking away the powdery look that your face sometimes get from make up.  This also makes your makeup literally last all day long, it is amazing and refreshing and I absolutely love it.  This is great for all skin types, even if you are acne proned.  Just lightly mist this over your makeup, and experience a hydrated face, with makeup that lasts all 
day long. $10

  3. Hey Hailey,
    Thank you soo much for reading! I can't say their lipsticks are my favorite, I only own 1 so maybe I should try some more of them. The Fix is awesome it sets your make up and makes it last for HOURS! It also takes away that powdery look if you wear powder! Thanks for your comments keep them coming!
