When the Diana Eyes 1 quad came out, I was a poor, broke college student who really didn't know what MAC was. So I got the quad in a swap from MUA, and though the reviews said some of the colors, mainly the fushia one, didn't work too well, they worked on me, and I'm in love. Face Merle...

I had a lot of time to get ready for the day today, and while I'm a little overdone for the doctor's office, who cares!? I haven't used these colors in a LONG time and I'm glad I did. Face Hope in a Jar moisturizer MAC Studio Fix concealer palette in Light NARS Oil Free foundation in Mont...

The leaves are finally all changed here, and I felt inspired this morning. This is my favorite time of the year and I'm happy to celebrate in my favorite way. Themed makeup! I was really happy with how it came out. The colors reminded me of the Spiced Chocolate quad, so I'm interested to use...

I store a lot of my makeup items in the awesome gift boxes that Sephora gives when you purchase items online. I've never ordered online from MAC before, since I live so close to a store. Does MAC have gift boxes, and if they do, are they as high quality as the Sephora boxes? For those of...

I stumbled upon this link earlier today. I thought it was kind of cool and thought I'd share. Basically, all you need to do is grab a fairly used tube of lipstick, compare it's shape to the shapes on the site, and see if the description matches your personality. I'm a Sharp Angled Box Curve...

I had my monthly trip to the stylist today, and I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the dye. It's super cute, but I don't know. Now I feel a little punk rock. It's only hair, and I can redye it, so I'm not worried about it. I don't know. I'm sure it'll grow on me. And I don't know if a...

I didn't dress up for Halloween at work, I just did my makeup like I normally do. It's funny, because the people who work around me know I wear a lot of makeup, but other people in my company don't. I had probably 4 or 5 people today ask me what my costume was. Apparently no one's used to...

I'm not certain about Lightfull, but I use Strobe on the highest point of my cheekbones to create a natural looking highlight and down the bridge of my nose. I put it under my foundation, so it's not as bright, and it ends up being a soft shimmer on the highest points. It helps to contour my...

A friend of mine at work just figured out that she's allergic to all makeup (including MAC) except Bare Escentials. She had asked me a few weeks ago about my eyeshadow, and I told her it was the MAC Spiced Chocolate quad. Since then, she's not able to use those colors. She's wanting to know...

I have all of my MAC organized on my desk, and I'm trying to get my inventory as organized as my vanity I've started an Excel spreadsheet of all of my MAC products, but I'm curious to see how everyone else does it. Is there any other way you've found to organize your data? I figured I need...

I recently bought the neutral lip set from the Holiday 2008 collection. The only problem is I'm IN LOVE with the brown lipstick, Real Treasure (lustre), and the *tiny* tube of lipglass in My Dear. Here's a picture. IMG_1737.JPG (image) I'm sorry I can't post the picture here. My Mac laptop...

I got a tume of Precise Volume Mascara (in waterproof) with my eyelash curler. I really like the formula! It holds my curl all day, but I don't think I'm using the wand right. Two sides are flat, with not a lot (or no) bristles. One side has dense bristles and the other side is like a...

This was my first holiday event, and my last big haul for awhile. I feel guilty for how much I spent..my (newlywed) husband and I just merged assets, and now I have to tell him how much I really spend. So no more makeup for awhile, but this was worth it. I can't get the pictures to load I'm...

I've never worn foundation before, and due to some really crappy customer service where I get my tinted moisturizer (LONG story involving ex-friends and weddings...she was gossiping about in a store now no one will help me, and when they do, they're completely rude *censored*), so I'm on the...

While watching youtube, I found a site that sales 1/2 teaspoon pigment samples - 10 for $48. Has anyone ordered pigments from this site, or other sites? The site states the pigments are authentic, but how can you tell? There is no pro store around me and there's a couple of colors I'm...

I just bought Strobe liquid, and I'm in love with it. I've used it on my cheeks and along the bridge of my nose. I know it can also work for a brow contour/highlighter. I'm curious. What other creative uses have ya'll come up with? I'm afraid to put it on my lids because I don't know if...

For whatever reason - contact issues, non-curl mascara, cosmetic gods frowning upon me - I can't get my eyelashes to stay curled. I curl my eyelashes before mascara, and I don't like to after my mascara's on because I'm afraid to break my lashes. I'm considering investing in a heated lash...

Something about an empty palette bothers me. I have one blush space left in m palette. I was going to depot my Fafi blush, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. Before I get started into what I'm looking for, here is a list of the colors I have, and descriptiosn for the ones I could find...

I have pretty severe dry eye and I have to use eye drops at least once a day. I'm stubborn and refuse to wear my glasses to work. What's the point of wearing awesome eyeshadow and not being able to show it off? I've given up on lining my waterline - MUFE Aqua Eye works pretty well but it...

I do a lot of traveling, and I've been wanting to buy a train case for the longest time. I'm in LOVE with the MAC train cases, but totally not in love with the price tag. My favorite thing about it is that you have full access to the shelves, as they do not overlap. I have a mid-sized...
