Heya girls and boys!
I'm a long-time lurker who couldn't stand to keep silent any longer.
I recently discovered the wonderful world of MAC, and there's no turning back.
Just a big hello and THANK YOU to all of you regualrs here, you've taught me a helluva lot about MAC and makeup in general, so it's nice to come outta hiding to say so.
To give you an idea of my MAC collection thus far, here's a post from another great board about my big haul last week.... 8)

| As an almost MAC virgin ( I only discovered the wonder of this line last year! ), I felt like I needed to expand my MAC collection, so I set out to my local free-standing MAC store and hauled as follows: Shadows: * Twinks (dirty plum w/gold) * Flirty Number (dirty light plum w/frost) * Mulch (golden reddish brown w/bronze) * Da Bling (bright pink w/gold) * Knight Divine (carbon black w/silver-blue) * Sweet Lust (pink rose water) * Sumptuous Olive (metallic khaki) * Ricepaper (soft peachy gold w/shimmer) * Naked Lunch (minimal pink w/shimmer) * Tempting (rich coco) * Fiction (muted green w/shimmer) * Greensmoke (tarnished olive) I already owned Shroom, Patina and Gleam, so now I have enough to fill up a 15 pan! Yay!!! But I wasn't done yet, not by a long shot. I also picked up.... * My very first pigment in Goldenaire (pink/gold shimmer) * My very first Shadestick in Beige-ing (beige toned champagne) * A couple of Paints... Chiaroscuro (neutral beige w/frost) Sublime Nature (mid-tone naked beige) * The Blot Powder in Medium, and I got the really pretty, multi-colored Deneuve/Icon compact. For my lips, I got.... * Frost Lipstick in X-Pose (muted pinkish- beige w/violet shimmer) * Lustre Lipsticks in... * Plink! (yellowed seashell pink) * High Tea (pinkish nude-beige) * Sharp Beige, from the Deneuve collection (nude pink, lustre) * Lipglass in Prrr (soft pink/peach w/icy shimmer) * Chromeglass in Sunmetal (chrome bronze w/pearl) I needed to add a few missing brushes to my already extensive brush collection, so I grabbed: * 239 (eye shading brush) * 213 (fluff brush for lids) * 259 (square shader) been wanting this FOREVER! * 219 (pencil brush/crease) And finally, I grabbed a bottle of brush cleaner. As long as I was in haul mode, I went to Neiman's and picked up a couple of really gorgeous pink lippies at the Shu counter... * Lolishine Rouge #316 (pale lavender pink with a wash of gold) * Rouge 4 #938E (burnt sienna w/shimmer) And then they threw me outta the mall, as it was closing time! I know that I have the early makings of a pretty good MAC collection here, but I'd love to hear some rec's for what my next purchases should be, complementary shades and combos, etc. I never really understood the cult of MAC, but now that I've caught the bug, I "get it" only too well, LOL.... I'm off to play make-up now, I'll report back! |
