My MAC Powders Collection

I've got to say out of all of my MAC items, my powders are by far the most collectable. I don't really use them all that often and I buy them sometimes just for the packaging. Someday I intend to use them all up, but it will take some time. I do however use my mineralize skinfinishes as highlighters frequently.  I've never had any issues with MSFs and color payoff. I would also just like to rant a little bit about these products. MAC puts out tons of these LE powders knowing that people (like me) will buy them no matter what. However, a lot of them turn out to be duds. The beauty powders and the high light powders can be really not very good. The oversprays kill me because they get your hopes up and then they're immediately ruined after a few uses. But any ways... Here is my collection.

*MAC Blush Collection*

I thought I'd share my MAC blush collection just to give an idea of what I reach for. All of the MAC blushes that I own are actually limited edition. You probably won't be able to find all of these, but with CCO's, ebay, and makeup swaps... you never know! The main reason I've gotten the LE ones is because I know that the permanent ones will always be around if I decide to buy them. The LE ones are unique and sometimes have awesome packaging so they suck me right in!

MAC Newbies! (Baking Beauties & Haley Williams)

Initially I was extremely taken by the pictures from the Baking Beauties collection. They were so freaking cute! But once I started looking at the products I really wasn't that impressed. The only things that caught my eye were the lipsticks. I knew that I had to have Raspberry Swirl. After looking at swatches of the old formula for Lavender Whip, I wasn't that set on getting it. It was a little too cool toned for me. When I finally saw the collection online, I immediately put Raspberry Swirl in my cart. Then I decided to get 2 Lavender Whips. I would keep one for myself if I liked it and I planned on selling the other. I also decided to pick up the Lightscapade MSF that was rereleased with the Haley Williams collection. My thoughts and swatches are below!

MAC Archie's Girls & Viva Glam Nicki II

I'm FINALLY able to make this post now! So far this collection for me has been a HUGE ordeal. As soon as I saw the pictures for the collection I got so excited because I liked so many of the products. The colors were right up my alley and the packaging was super cute. So January 30th comes around when the collection is supposed to be released online. I actually set my alarm to get up at midnight! As many of us found out, the collection was not released at midnight. I went back to sleep and decided to wait til morning. When I got up I checked again and nothing. So I go to work/school as usual and realized I forgot my laptop so I'd have to keep checking and eventually purchase on my phone. The collection didn't go online until about 4PM, but when it did, I was able to order all of my must haves from my phone. After this I couldn't wait to get my items. I found out later at night that Viva Glam Nicki II had launched as well so I ordered that separately, also from my phone.

I received my tracking number and opened my package as soon as it arrived the following Tuesday. Once I opened it, I realized... This is not my package! The box said my name, but the invoice didn't and there were several more items than I ordered, plus it was missing one that I did order. I ordered the Prom Princess blush, Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte powder, Daddy's Little Girl lipstick, Betty Bright lipstick, Girl Next Door lipstick, and the Kiss & Don't Tell lipglass. In my box there were those things minus the lipglass, plus the Cream Soda blush, Flatter Me Pearlmatte powder, an extra Betty Bright lipstick, and two Ronnie Red lipsticks.

I immediately emailed MAC to let them know about the mistake because I had received someone else's personal information and I can only assume someone received mine. Also I was missing that lipglass. They got back to me the next day in the afternoon. They told me they were sorry about the mix up and they would send my products 2nd day for free and that I should send back the package. I told them that I had opened some of them because they were the same as products that I ordered and asked if I should send all of them back, would I get a tracking number and was there a way to know if my personal information (name, address, phone number) had been compromised. I didn't hear from them for another two days and did not receive the package. So I filled out their customer survey telling them of my negative experience and emailed them asking what was going on and to let them know that I did not get my package. They got back to me the next day and apologized for the confusion. They told me to keep all of the items and that they were still sending me my package and provided the tracking number.

These are the products that I originally received. I'll add the lipglass when it comes.

Recent Purchases (MAC & Urban Decay)

I've got a few new beauties to show you guys. I accumulated a few items over Christmas and from using gift cards and Christmas money. MAC came out with like a billion collections, but I only got a lipstick and mineralized skin finnish. I also picked up a couple of other lipsticks and with a gift card I got an Urban Decay fillable palette. Lip swatches are coming soon.

MAC Holiday Haul! Feat the Fabulousness & Glamourdaze Collections

I was SOOO excited when I received the event invite in the mail! By far the cutest invite I've received. It was hard to pick what I wanted from these collections because there wasn't a lot of information about them when I went to the event and everything was so cute! But here are my picks.

The picture of the actual lipstick didn't want to upload. :/ But this is Fusion Pink. It's an Amplified finish. It's a very reddy pink. The color is a little darker in person.

Mega Lip Swatch Post!

This post has been a long time coming. The reason that it has taken so long is that I've had some crazy skin issues with my lips. OCC Lip Tar swatches were supposed to be included in this post, but I can't wear them due to my lips being on the fritz. I'm not convinced that my issues were caused by the Lip Tars, but they happened around the same time. However, I haven't used them in a long time, but the problem keeps coming back. Anyways, here are the lip swatches that I did get to.

MAC Surf Baby Haul!


 My Paradise Cheek Powder
My camera does this no justice, but it is a gorgeous orange blush with a gold overspray. The gold is much more thick than others in the past.

 Sun Blonde Eye Shadow

 Swell Baby Eye Shadow

Swell Baby is more pigmented than it appears in this picture. Both shadows are wonderful colors. Grays & yellows are probably my favorite eye shadow colors so I had to get these. They were definite gaps in my collection.


 Surf the Ocean Crushed Metal Pigment Stack
I fell so deep in love with these immediately! I will never pass on a crushed metal pigment stack again! They are so amazingly pigmented and smooth! They all have an awesome shimmer to them. I was so impressed with these ones that I went back the next day and bought the other pigment stack.


 Summer Stash Crushed Metal Pigment Stack
These more neutral colors are going to come in handy on a more every day basis. They are just so pretty! They swatch so well that it almost made my mouth water. hahaha


 Blue Noon Powerpoint Pencil
This is my first Powerpoint pencil. It's very smooth and such a nice color. It's great on the lower lash line.


 Good Lovin' Lipglass
This is a great everyday lip gloss. It would go great over any color. There are very fine shimmers in it that you can see in the right light.


 Hibiscus Lipstick

I love this color! I have a few colors similar to this, but nothing that's exactly the same. Cremesheens are probably my favorite lipsticks by MAC. This color is like Vegas Volt and Toxic Tale had a baby.

Overall, I loved the pigment stacks the most. If you pick up anything from this collection I would recommend the Surf the Ocean pigment stack and the Hibiscus lipstick.

MAC Extra Charged Big Bounce Shadow



I've heard pretty much only negative things about this product, but I wanted to try it any way. I love the color. It goes on pretty sheer, but it can be built up. It takes a little while to dry, but not too long. I can't wait to use this under a color like MAC's Humid. I wouldn't use this by itself because it is very sheer and kind of looks weird alone. So pretty much this will be a base for me. My overall impression is that it shouldn't be called a shadow, but maybe like a paint.

MAC Ever Hip





I am SO in love with this color! Ever Hip is pink leaning toward coral. This came out with the Fashion Flower collection. It's a cremesheen finnish.  The only word that I can think of to describe the feel of it is luscious. This color is for me a "my lips but better" kind of color. It just makes my lips brighter and stand out more. I'm glad that I got my hands on it.

MAC Vegas Volt




Vegas Volt is an orangey-coral lipstick. It is an amplified creme finnish. It goes on very smooth and creamy. This is a great lipstick for Spring/Summer. Especially since coral and orange lipstick are a trend this Spring. I love this color. It's just so vibrant!

Trip to MAC


I got Ever Hip lipstick from the new collection. I also picked up a Big Bounce shadow in Extra Charged (even though I've heard negative things about these). I just wanted to try one. I picked a green one because I have green eyes and I thought it would be a pretty base. I also picked up the Select Cover Up because I've been looking for a concealer that I'll actually like. I haven't ever had one that was really what I wanted. I'm shade NW15. Swatches coming soon!
