"MAC" MAC collection and outlet products!(small haul)

Hey guys,

I went to MAC a couple of days ago and checked out the MAC collection. I can safely say that I wasn't all that interested in it. Other than the two shadows I bought and a pigment which I wanted but decided I didn't need, nothing else wow-ed me.
So here is what I did get :



left: off the page right: haunting
They are very nicely pigmented and I love the colors.

I also went to an outlet store where I found a stand of mac products that have been discontinued etc and bought another 4 shadows(petalescent, surreal, signed&sealed and teal blue) and a plushglass in "foolishly fab".




Here are the swatches for all 6 shadows and the plushglass.



From left to right: teal blue, petalescent, surreal, haunting, off the page & signed&sealed. And under the shadow swatches : "foolishly fab" plushglass.


That is all for now!

Seeking Advice!

Hey guys!

Well I need some advice. I am thinking about purchasing my first liquid foundation! I have always used powders or mineral foundation since I didn't really need full coverage until now (all of a sudden I started getting freckles...how crazy is that?). However I think it is time to buy a liquid foundation that I could use for a night out or a situation where full coverage is essential. I have tried several but I never owned one long enough to actually form an opinion. I need one that is not too greasy and I won't feel like I have plaster on my face. Let me know what you use and/or if you have any recommendations.

Cheers

Have a great day!!!
