Makeup Brushes -MAC - #190 Foundation Brush
rated 5 of 5

This is a well-made brush great for eyeshadow application. I use it with my e/s and my pigments wet or dry. Great for precise placement of shadows on lid.

I really like this brush. It is great for applying eyeshadows or pigments but it is a great brush to cover alot of area with, so using this to apply a wash is great.

Loose Powders -MAC - Select Sheer Loose Powder
rated 4 of 5

This is a nice powder to set your makeup with as it gives a natural finish. It does have a tendency to darken after application so it is best to get a lighter shade. In Studio Fix I am a NC50 but in this powder I am NC40.

OHHH this such a pretty color. Amazingly deceptive as in the pot it is white with a hint of irridesense but on me it starts off white then flashes purple and blue. A very vibrant color.

Eye Shadow -MAC - Arena

This is my holy grail brow bone highlighter. It is excellent for darker skin tones as it does not give to obvious of a look as some of the other commonly used highlighters. It looks peachy in the pot but comes out with a sublte glow. Beautiful. NC50

Eye Shadow -MAC - Coco Beach pigment
rated 5 of 5
Calbear 1/13/2004 3:39:00 AM

A nice rich chocolately brown. For my NC50 skin - it is perfect as a crease color. I hate that this was LE but I will probably never finish the pot so I don't have to worry about being without it.

This is an amazingly rich, deep berry with a bit of brown. Definitely more pigmented than Desire (which i love as well). Looks great on most darker skin tones.

Lip Liners -MAC - Lip Pencil - Chestnut
rated 5 of 5

There is no lipliner greater for women of color, a rich brown. If for some reason MAC ever discontinued this, i would curl up into a ball and cry. It is the most blendable liner i have ever used. This compliments my complexion with any shade I want to wear.

why oh why oh why oh why oh why oh why. this is such an amazing color but the formula just fades away so quick. why does this have to be in the new formulat - i love mac's sticky longlasting formula. As far as the glitter goes - i love it ;-)

Lip Gloss -MAC - Scent Me

Scent Me is a pretty opalescent pink/white gloss. Great over other lipsticks and wonderful alone. This seems to be in the original formula of lipglasses.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Coco Framboise
rated 5 of 5
Calbear 1/11/2004 8:45:00 PM

The Coco Framboise color is striking. A chocolately brown with a red iridescence. Beautiful. Can be worn sheered out or full on, both give a vibrant color.

Love this product. The color is amazing and the new texture is great. Just a little goes a long way. The color was a little scary in the jar but great on.

I really like this product. This product seperated very well and I had a great natural look. (unfortunately I found another mascara the same week which is now my HG)

Mascara -MAC - Fibre Rich Lash Mascara
rated 5 of 5
Calbear 10/5/2003 3:28:00 AM

I absolutely love this product. (which is saying alot because I can not stand any of the MAC mascaras). No clumps, my lashes looked longer, thicker and were beautifully seperated. Kinda weird looking brush but it works. Important to wipe the excess off the brush before applying and for 10 bucks I'm not mad at it.

Highlighters -MAC - All Over Gloss - Astonish
rated 5 of 5
Calbear 7/28/2003 4:15:00 PM

I love this color. Astonish is a really pretty pearl color that flashes pink, green and gold (at times) on me (DDD/AAA - NC50). The stickiness that some complain of does take some geting used to but it is not that bad and the color is amazing
