    Hi Specktra Ladies and Guys!

    I've been searching around on youtube.com and heard about this site. I recently started my MAC addiction and this was perfect place to help me appease my need to know more about MAC and makeup in general... haha, I'm a newbie in applying makeup as well. I love the creativity and the advice here.
