Took me a few days to get around to pulling these pictures off of the camera… I’m on a makeup vacation since I’ve just been bumming around the past few days enjoying the snowy weather!

Playing catch up! Look for December 23, 2009
Saturday, December 26th, 2009Swatch of the Day: MAC “Bright Green” Eyeshadows
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Today’s swatches are…
What I categorize as my MAC “bright green” eyeshadows!
MAC Swimming Eyeshadow
Description: A scintillating sea green (Lustre)
MAC Bio-Green Eyeshadow
Description: Bright yellow green with gold pearl (Frost, Pro)
MAC Lime Eyeshadow
Description: Lime green (Matte, Pro)
MAC Bitter Eyeshadow
Description:Vivid bright golden green flecked with shimmer (Velvet)
Swatching procedure: My skin tone is roughly a MAC NW20. Swatches are done over MAC Painterly paint pot to provide a base, therefore results may appear different on bare skin.
Photos are taken in my bathroom of the shadows themselves under “Natural Light” bubs which mimic natural daylight. Swatch pictures were taken by a window with natural sunlight.
First it was steamy, now it’s humid in here!

I didn’t do my face today, a bit on the lazy side and had to get dinner prepared for the crock pot, LOL.
I think all my lipglosses look the same in these pictures, such a shame. Today’s (Spring Bean) is especially cool:
Yes, that’s neon green! But goes on in a caramel sort of shade, very pretty. Not green at all! But then in the pictures my lips look red as always 
Sometimes the camera works out nicely, sometimes it doesn’t. That’s the case with point and shoots (Kodak M1033). Maybe I’ll have to use my D300 DSLR more often, at least for product shots.
The 217 brush that I got yesterday works out nicely! It does indeed do an awesome job at blending, I think my 272 is whimpering in the brush roll, worried it got replaced
As a final note, I think Humid is one of the MAC eyeshadows that everyone needs to own! It’s such a nice, solid dark green that goes with a lot of things, and blends well. I love it!
