Mac has always been a brand that I've dipped into every now and again but don't actually own that much stuff. I've had a little list of things I'd like to try and before Christmas I decided just to go for it and get what I want.
So firstly I got the Studio Fix Foundation in the shade NW18. I've previously had the foundation and really liked it, although last time I was matched with NC15. I decided to go with a darker shade this time just from judging the colour last time, although I do have pale skin sometimes pale shades just make me look grey and a lil dead. This shade is darker than my natural skin tone but not massively that I look tangoed, just a nice amount of extra colour to look a lil brighter.
Fixing sprays are products I don't really have much to do with. I thought I'd try it since its one of them products thats always used in makeup tutorials. In my previous experience I haven't really been able to tell any difference when using fixing sprays but I'll give this one a try.
For a while I've been wanting to play with new highlighters. Highlighting is a huge makeup trend and I feel really late on the bandwagon. Powder highlighters aren't always make fave, they can look cakey and dull at times. This one look promising, I opted for the shade Soft and Gentle.
Primers are products that I'm always willing to experiment with, I think its because I haven't yet found my number 1. I opted for the Grapefruit and Chamomile, just because my cleanser contains chamomile and is great on my skin!
I have a few Mac Lippies and I love them, so I added to the collection with Honey Love. Its a shade I've noticed popping up here and here.
Admittedly I only purchased this because I read in a magazine that it was a good one to have. A nude lip pencil will never go a miss. In the shade Spice.
