Recent Mac Haul.


I just received my MAC package I've been so anxious to receive!!!

I finally got the Blogger's Confession eyeshadow in 'Jealousy Wakes.' This color was sold out for a while and I was worried it wouldn't come back in stock but it did!!! It's an amazing color. If you're a crayola crayon user like myself it's very much like the jungle green color! It's described on MAC's site as an Emerald green with teal and gold pearl! It's a very unique color, and I've noticed you can really build on the color to make it super vibrant!


The next item I received in my haul was a lipstick I've been dying for! It's called 'Girl about town' (amplified creme) and it is a vibrant fuschia color! If you've seen Selena Gomez's video for "Love you like a love song" it's identical to the hot pink lipstick she is wearing in one of the scene! This lipstick is amazing. I'll do a FOTD look with it shortly!

And lastly, I decided to try a new bronzer and I'm so glad I did. I went with MAC's Matte Bronzer! I love it. I use it more for contour on my cheeks and to shape my nose.. It is a deep color so I would not suggest it for lighter skin tones!

My favorites from MAC Semi-precious collection!

Hey guys!! So I went to the MAC counter recently to check out the new Semi-precious collection they have released and I fell in love with 2 items that I HAD to purchase immediately!



The lippy I got is a lustre lipstick called 'Gem of Roses.' This is a beautiful strawberry pink color. This lipstick is very moisturizing and long lasting. I love lustre lipsticks from MAC. I think this is a lovely color that almost everyone could pull off and it might be a great color if you are thinking about trying pinks out for the first time!!

Above is the swatch without a flash. It 


The next product I had to have is one of the mineralize blushes from the semi-precious collection. I fell in love with the blush called 'Feeling Flush.'

This blush is so beautiful and very pigmented. Everyone can wear it just go at it with a light hand, unless you're like me and love a bright pop of blush! This color is a very cool-toned pink, with a touch of lavender in there! I'm in love, I've worn this every day since I've bought it! 

Below I have swatched it for you. You can apply this very lightly or really build on it for a strong pigment!




Have you guys tried any products from the semi-precious collection!? If so, what have you tried? What are your favorites? Have you tried 'gem of roses' or 'feeling flush?'

Buxom inner rim eyeliner in White!


I've always been searching for a great white liner that stays and goes on smoothly and I've found the best yet. This is definitely my favorite.

I love white eyeliner in my inner rim. This helps to brighten your eyes and make them appear bigger!


It is Buxom's insider liner in white. You can get this at Sephora. It's only $14! This is a steal, and it will last all day!



The photos above I'm wearing this Buxom white liner on my lower waterline! It really opens up my eyes and gives that wide-eye babydoll look!
