Welcome to my MAC makeup blog! I’ll be updating this with my daily looks, new purchases, etc!
I have two looks from a few days ago that I am going to post, and then I’ll post a new entry for today’s look!
Jan. 08, 2009 Look “Going to the pet food store!”
Products (all are MAC unless noted):
Eyes
- Painterly paint pot as base (242 brush dupe from Sephora)
- Moonflower e/s all over lid (139 brush)
- Deep Truth e/s in outer V/crease, and a bit to line upper and lower lids (139 brush)
- Ricepaper e/s in crease up to brow (272 brush)
- Crystal Avalanche e/s lightly in crease, and a bit under brow (272 brush)
- Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash mascara
Lips
No foundation/concealer/powder/etc.
This look turned out better than I hoped, and my makeup artist at my local freestanding MAC store even complimented me! This made me so happy, as I am always scared to wear “serious” makeup to MAC, in fear the MUAs will make fun of me. Definitely a confidence booster! I did notice my right eye wasn’t as blended as the left, probably due to the crappy lighting in my bathroom (I switched to “natural” lightbulbs last night and LOVE it).

Jan. 09, 2009 Look “BBR Playtime”
Products (all MAC unless noted):
Face
- Mineralized loose foundation in medium (109 brush)
- Redhead Mineralized Skinfinish (168 brush)
Eyes
- Painterly paint pot as base (242 brush dupe from Sephora)
- Henna e/s all over lid, up a little past crease (139 brush)
- 100 Strokes e/s in outer V, and along upper lash line (139 brush, and small slanted Sephora brush for lining)
- Ricepaper e/s to blend and up to brow (272 brush)
- Brow Set in clear
- Make Up For Ever Smokey Lash mascara
Lips
- Carmex
Time to play with my new products I got from the “Brunette, Blonde, and Redhead” collection, along with my new powder foundation that I got at MAC 01/08/09. I figured out Ricepaper mixed with 100 Strokes made some sort of gunmetal silver color. I honestly must admit I wasn’t too happy with 100 Strokes, but it just might be the other colors I was using it with. I’m sure I’ll make it work.
