recent buys from mac

Whenever I'm not feeing so great I always turn to a bit of retail therapy and recently I decided that a Mac order was on the cards. Mac is without a doubt my favourite make up brand, due to the never ending shades of lipstick and array of eyeshadows to play with, not to mention their false lashes and blushes to suit every skin tone. The prices may be too high for me to shop there regularly but it doesn't put me off having a treat every now and then. This time I decided to make an online order and pick up a few products that I've been eyeing up for a long time.


MAC BROW SET IN 'CLEAR' - £12.50: At the moment it's all about the brows for me, the bolder the better but equally I want to avoid them looking like two dark drawn on lines so I purchased brow set to brush up the hairs to make them appear more textured.

MAC EYE BROWS IN 'BRUNETTE' - £12.50: With the same mindset as purchasing brow set I thought a brow crayon/pencil would work well at creating finer strokes than using a powder product. I usually go for an ash cool toned colour on my brows so was a little disappointed to see that this is warm toned but we'll see!

MAC CREMEBLEND BLUSH IN 'SO SWEET, SO EASY' - £17.50: I've been after a new cream blush in quite a while and this shade was exactly what I was looking for. I have very dry skin so powder blushes never work out too well for me and I love the dewy effect created with cream products.

MAC LIPSTICK IN 'CYBER' - £14: I love dark purple almost gothic lip colours and since I have got on so well with 'Rebel' by Mac I couldn't wait to try out this deeper and more vampy shade.

MAC LIPSTICK IN 'CANDY YUM-YUM' - £14: Being no stranger to trying out the brightest of lipsticks next on my list has always been this one but it's been pretty hard to track down as it quickly goes in and out of stock on the website. I'm so happy that I have it now as it's different to all of my other shades and goes so well with my new hair colour.

I will be writing about all of the products in more detail soon and be putting up some photos of what they look like on too!
