MAC "Must Haves"

[Martha]

What are yours?

 

I am thinking about going to MAC to get my make-up done because I need new stuff....I wear Clinique, but am ready to try something else.

 

Even if my friends derm says its bad for the skin.

I only wear their powder and I recently tried their lipstick (it's free if you return 6 powder containers for them to recycle). I like it...

 

I am too cheap to convert everything else...although my cheap mascara is really starting to annoy me because it's clumping...so I might try mascara too??

I don't wear makeup now but in high school I used to swear by MAC lipliners.....I think my fav color was spice? It's very neutral. I know we have some MAC girls here who can help you out.

I don't use MAC often since I break out, but its great coverage and lasts quite a while (since its stage make-up). I love their eye shadows and brushes the best, but you can't go wrong with any of their products.

Yeah I got an email from a friend that said friends don't let friends wear MAC. I am not sure about the eyeshadows but I have been told that the foundation is not good for your skin. I recently started using Bare Escentuals for my face and I love it. MAC does have great shadows still.

oh... I have so many must-haves

 

eyeshadows:

trax

swish or Phloof!

vanilla

 

 

lipgloss:

nymphette

 

ok... I could go on and on.... it depends on what colors you like to wear...

[MsShelley]

spice is always a good neutral liner (most people can wear it)

 

and if you are going soon, and fall in love with some colors, check out the palettes too, a single eyeshados sells for $14, and you get a palette with 5 e/s for $36..

 

depending where you are going you can also check out the pigments... if you founf one in a nice neutral or pink, they are great, you can use them for eyeshadow, wet as a lipliner or eyeliner, or mix them with clear gloss for a lipgloss....

I haven't had any problem with my skin since I started wearing MAC (I love Bare Escentals too). I use the Studo Fix, and the Primer underneath ... and I love the Paints as a base color for your eyes (then your eyeshadow doesn't come off all day long). I basically use the whole gamut ... minus mascara and eye liner ... I use less expensive versions of those because they work just as well for me. Oh, and blush ... Peaches matches every skin tone!!
