Lipstick -MAC - Made to Order
rated 5 of 5

I adore this lipstick. Its been awhile since I've bought a coral lipstick and this one just fits the bill. It is a "dirty coral" which is how they describe it on their website. I have slightly tanned skin and this just compliments it nicely. I tried on "dressmaker" and it washed me out. Love this lipstick with "Hey" eyeshadow.

Loose Powders -Make Up For Ever - HD High Definition Loose Powder
rated 5 of 5

I do love this powder. With or without foundation. It gives a nice even finish and it doesn't change the color of your foundation. It looks paper white, but you only need a tiny bit. You can apply it as needed throughout the day. I do own the HD foundation as well and I love that even more because of the packaging. I find with the powder's packaging, when I travel too much comes out the top, so It would be good to keep the container upright at all times. But it is a fab-u-lous product. ;)

Eye Shadow -MAC - Sumptuous Olive (Veluxe pearl)
rated 4 of 5

This color is a really pretty deep olive green with shimmer. I bought this with woodwinked and think that the two colors compliment each other quite nicely. I use woodwinked as a base and the sumptuous olive in the crease and on me it looks kind of smokey and brings out my very dark brown eyes (which I find is hard for some eyeshadows to do!). Very happy that I finally bought a green eyeshadow that works for me!

Eye Shadow -MAC - Woodwinked - veluxe pearl

I bought this eyeshadow because I was starting a new pro colour pallette and the makeup artist at the pro store I was at suggested it. This is a fairly recent purchase for me and I was a little skeptical about it when I got home. But when I finally got the courage to wear it I got compliments on it, it really is a lovely shimmery golden-beige. I used it on its own with the MAC engraved powerpoint pencil (lined heavily only on the upper lid). I would definitely re-purchase this.

Lip Gloss -MAC - Lustreglass in Beaux

I love this liplustre! Beaux looks like honey on my very pigmented lips. I find that it compliments my tanned skintone very much while still looking natural. Plus it makes my lips look pout-ier (is that a word?) LOVe IT!
