Put the order in...

Ordered a boatload of stuff from the fall collections. I got pretty much everything I wanted which was mostly all shadows! I didn't get any lip stuff at all. Thank goodness for my pro discount is all I can say cause all my stuff (plus 2 small things for a friend) was like 300.00 without it! I did get free shipping, hmm that doesn't sound any better! I will put up color swatches as soon as the big box from MAC hits my door.

MAC new collections link

http://www.maccosmetics.com/

Tells the background of the three artists that inspire and design the fall collections. Cool color charts for the fall looks too.

I will be going to pick up some parts or all of the collections and will be doing some reviews soon. I want to start making videos but am really nervous to do so! Maybe just reviews to start and then some tutorials?

I don't see a lot for the artist Marilyn Minter's (photographer) collection that interests me. I have most of these pigments already. Really just one pigment I really want. "push the edge" a really hot purple color. $19.50

This is artist Maira Kalman, illustrater. Her style is childlike and whimsical. Bright fun colors!

top row-liners "color matters, obviously orange, artistic license, full of fushsia, graphblack" $14.50


top row-shadows "violet trance, purple shower, haunting" $14.50
(in decending order)
bottom row-shadows "maira's mood, off the page, crest the wave" $14.50

So the absolutely fabulous MAC make-up art cosmetics collections are out on the website and in stores on Thursday. So much to chose from, and of course, I want it all!!! So, so hard to pick and chose with this collection. It is inspired from the different artists and is kind of their "take" on makeup and MAC as art (which it is!).

The first artist is a painter named Richard Phillips. His style is bold and dramatic. Some of the items I am eyeing.


Green quad- "photo realism" $36.00

Purple quad- "private viewing" $36.00


lipsticks- "front lit, high strung, hold the pose, full body" $14.00 each

starflash shadows




12 new shadows from MAC. I'm a bit slow on these as they came out last week. Just got these 3 to start. The far left color is "rated R" and was sold out everywhere. Was able to snag one at a Macy's. Really pretty color that blends well with many other colors. I can see why it's so popular. The middle is a green called "one-off" I LOVE greens if you don't all know by now, and this one is awesome. The starflash colors have a shine to them which I think shows up pretty well on the swatch on my finger. The blue on the right is "strike a pose". A nice deep blue with that flash to it. I will be ordering more, was short on cash at the mall this time!
