MAC Lipstick Collection

Today I thought that I would share with you my MAC lipstick collection.
 
I have recently went through my collection to get rid of any colors that do not suite me.
 
I returned the Playland lipsticks that I feature here. I found that these colors did not work for me and were too bright.
 
I have decided to sell two of my Fantasy of Flowers lipsticks, Dreaming Dahlia which I featured here, and Heavenly Hybrid which I never blogged about. These were more shades that did not work for me.
 
I will be selling another lipstick, Force of Love which I featured here. This is another shade that does not work for me and is way too bright.

Which MAC lipsticks do you recommend me picking up next?
 
 
 
 
I personally have my eye on Hue, Crème Cup, and Shy Girl which I think would be perfect for everyday colors.

MAC Eyeshadow Collection


Today I will be sharing with you my MAC eyeshadow collection. I keep my pro pan eyeshadows in the Pro Palette Large/Duo which I love (but it gets very messy from fingerprints and eyeshadow fall out!).
 
I have two single eyeshadows - a discontinued eyeshadow that I backed-to-mac for a few months ago (that I haven't gotten around to depotting) and a limited edition eyeshadow that I bought from a CCO (which I can't depot because of the formula).
 
MAC Pro Palette Large/Duo ($8) - the same price as the Large/Single, but 2x the storage space!

MAC Fantasy of Flowers Collection Haul Part 3


MAC Fantasy of Flowers Collection
 
A dream world bursting with brilliant blooms of colour. A stunning bouquet of shades draws you in with hypnotic movement as a magical fantasy emerges glowing with a floral essence.
 
I have two other posts with my other items I've hauled from this collection which you can read here -- part 1 and part 2.
 
I think that it's safe to say that I went a little nuts with this collection.

Sephora Haul + My Thoughts

Sephora is full of pretty makeup, skincare, and perfume items that make me go weak in the knees!
 
Some people deem Sephora as the Home Depot for women.
 
 
I received a gift card to Sephora for Christmas that I have been saving for something extra special.
 
I decided to get the luxurious Christian Dior Crème de Rose Smoothing Plumping Lip Balm.
 
I had high hopes for this product because its been raved about on YouTube by a lot of people. Unfortunately, this did not help keep my lips smooth or moisturized.
 
This product has been returned. I would not recommend this product if you have dry lips. Considering the price tag, I expected this to be holy grail status.
 
XOXO
