My first MAC purchase!!!

So after being a makeup obsessed person my whole life I was kind of surprised that I don't own any MAC make up. So I thought it was about time to try it out to see what the hype is all about. So I ordered this set...

M.A.C. Cosmetics

It's called the keepsake red lip bag. The items that are included in the set are Ruby Woo matte lipstick ($16 value), Ruby Woo lipglass ($15 value), Ruby Woo lip pencil ($16 value), all inside a beautiful limited-edition cream glitter makeup bag with pearl beaded trim and a cameo-encrusted zipper pull. (I'm not sure of the value of the bag). I only paid $39.50!!! When the value without the pretty makeup bag is $47, so it was a great starter set for me! 

I love the lipstick! The color is very long lasting, I put it on in the morning ate breakfast and drank my coffee and it was still fresh looking! It was a little drying but when I felt like I needed to I just put some Chapstick on. The lipglass on the other hand I HATED! I've never had a problem with getting lip products on my teeth but this one some how endded up on my teeth during the day. Used it once, never again! It was kind of sticky too. Just not for me. The lip liner I didn't have a problem with I like it, I don't have much else to say about it.

Me with my new foundation and lipstick on!

The other two items I got was MAC studio fix fluid spf 15 foundation in NC20 it's ok but not the greatest I've tried. I keep finding myself reach for my Urban Decay Naked foundation instead. This one doesn't feel like it has very good full coverage with application. I applied it with my beauty blender so I don't know. 

The other item I got was Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Pressed Powder I love the black glittery compact it comes in and it works pretty well to mattify my face throughtout the day and minimize the shine. 

So that is my first order with M.A.C. cosmetics and overall I was mostly impressed with their lipsticks and with probably getting more in the near future!

What are your thoughts on M.A.C. products and what are your favorites that you think I should try?

Too Faced Everything Nice Palette Review

So I decide to purchase this palette on a whim. It was so pretty and eye-catching and it was a plus that it came with a make up bag! 


Front cover


Inside


It comes with the deluxe size better than sex mascara and a glittery pink makeup bag. I was really excited about the make up bag but once I received it and I tried to put the palette inside it didn't fit so I was pretty disappointed. Also the glitter on the bag falls off and makes a mess! What's the point of it coming with the make up bag if it doesn't even fit inside of it? 

Next I swatched the colors...


These are the first two rows. Some of them were kind of chalky. Didn't go on as smooth as some of the other eyeshadows that I have like urban decay or other too faced
 palettes that I have. 


Here the next two rows. My favorite of the whole palette is the last one on the top row in this picture. I'll probably be returning this palette. It's not worth it for only one eyeshadow that I like.

The brushes are cheaper quality than the regular teddy bear brushes that too faced makes you'd be better off getting their original teddy bear brushes then these. 
Don't get me wrong I still love this brand but this product for me was not to my liking. 

But at least now you guys know what I think of it and hopefully it helps some of you out. Thanks for reading my blog. I hope you enjoyed it. Feel free to leave me a comment. 

Anybody else that has bought this palette what do you think of it?
