Help me with my MAC Pro haul!

[pdtb050606]

Ok, so my mom and I are doing a mother/daughter trip to the Pro store so I've told myself I am ONLY buying PRO prouducts and nothing that I can get here. So I am looking for some insight on what you think are the best things to get while I'm there. I know what the PRO products are but I was hoping you all could rec some specific things/colors. The only colors I don't do are blues so everything else is fair game. I want to make sure that I get everything I want b/c it's a 3hr drive so I know I won't be going back anytime soon. TIA!

I would def. check out the pro pigments and reflect glitters.

Rust and blackened red reflect glitters are awesome! There are also some really pretty pro eyeshadows, such as Kelly (green) and Bright sunshine (yellow).

Also if you are a brush freak like me, you should check out the pro brushes

There are so much to choose from, so I suggest spending some time at the pro website

Cause I admit that eventhough I had a "plan" about what to get when I was going to a pro store, I went completely bananas when I saw the store. Everything was so tempting Ended up spending over 700 dollars XD

Hope you have an awesome time!!

which blushes did you get? I have made "my list" but I know how that goes

 

[ThePostcardOrg]

I got Devil (bright irridecent coral orange) and Rhubarb (bright magenta).
Both look CRAZY in the pan. But applied with a light hand and with the right brush, they both look great!

Happy Shopping at Pro Store, Pam! I remember how crazy I went when I visited the NYC Pro Store. It felt like I was in MAC heaven, seriously!

You should definitely check out Bright Sunshine, Bottle Green, Biogreen (you can skip it if you have wondergrass) and Kelly eyeshadows. Also since you got the Redhead MSF, you can try layering it over cantaloupe pro blush, it looks soooo gorgeous! Oh and dont forget to check out the pro pigments (Emerald green and Rose Gold pigments are so pretty! )

 

[Mabelle]

check out gold pigment. so much sexy.

 

[BrowneyedBeauty]

I love Cantaloupe blush!! Definitely check it out!

That was actually the first thing on my list! I'm soooo excited!

 

[Lyssah]

I also agree with Bio Green, Kelly Green E/S and Bright Sunshine. Vibrant purple is also pretty. Lime is a pretty cool colour though

Go to macpro.com to see what colors are pro only...that'll help you figure out what you should look at. Definitely look at the pro pigments and Cantaloupe is an awesome blush! Have fun, the Pro Store is heaven!

 

[pdtb050606]

Oh yes, I have a long list here of pro only items..I went through each individual section and picked out the pro colors only so I won't forget to give them a gander. Can you tell I'm excited? lol
I will have to keep telling myself while I'm there -do not buy reg line items!

If I could get to a PRO store I would be getting Apple Red and Frankley Scarlett blushes (I think these are the PRO true red blushes?). I'm mad for red blush atm.
