Return of the Mac

Hello beautiful people

"So i'm back up in the game"

I think it's been a bit too long since I did one of these posts! My spending has been minimal the last few months and so my Mac habit has suffered miserably :'(

Because I deserve treats I have purchased 4 new things, 3 of which are limited edition (sorry bout it) and they're pretty much all things you're bound to hate or be scared of.

Again, sorry bout it!

All items have been purchased by myself :)

The first two items are from the 2014 Holiday Collection Heirloom Mix & are both pressed pigments. These two are so beautiful and very appropriate for the Christmas Party season ahead of us, use on their own or as an addition to a standard dark smokey eye for added Xmas drama.

As you can see from the swatches they're heavenly pigmented and extremely buildable.

Before Fabb Birmingham the other week I took a little trip to Mac to purchase a new powder and have a peek at the Artificially Wild Collection that I've been lusting over since the photos were leaked months ago. 

I left with Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in Medium Plus and the Artificially Wild eye shadow in Natural Wilderness.

All of these products are right up my street and I couldn't leave them behind, especially the eye shadows not just because of their beauty but the fact they're Limited Edition!

Keep your eyes peeled for looks using these products coming soon!

Have you purchased anything from Mac recently?

MAC Haul

Hello beautiful people;

Today I was a bit naughty and I treated myself to 4 MAC items when visiting Merry Hill.

2 of the items were on my weekly wishlist, 1 is something I ALWAYS buy and the last was something that I'd tried and tested and needed to own !!

Disclaimer.

Fortunately, I do work for Debenhams so I am lucky enough to get 20% off MAC and I purchased everything with my own money. Make Up is my passion and I work hard for what I own. The prices below are before any discount is applied.

The items I purchased are (left to right, top to bottom):

MAC face and body foundation in N2 £21.50

MAC lipglass in Myth £14

MAC travel size fix+ £8

MAC amplified lipstick in Morange £15

For me this is a very small haul and half of the items I did actually need. The lip products are two things I've wanted to add to my collection for a long time.

The items I have purchased are definitely going to be some of my most used products this summer, the colours are perfect and the face & body foundation is the right consistency for summer.

I am so surprised at how little I purchased as I have a list of MAC items to buy the length of my arm!

Have you tried any of these products?

Or do you have any Summer products you think I should try?

Thank you for reading !!

lots of love, effstarbeauty x
