MAC Haul: Sheer Minerals and Red She Said

Hi Bellas,
So I went to MAC on Thursday during lunch to check out the new collections. I tried to spent $70 but actually spent $113. Close but dang, still went over! I didn't realize there was a 4th MSF that I didn't have...dang you gold deposit msf! I also picked up some MAC wipes because I was dangerously low. Fortunately, I did Back 2 MAC to get 2 of the lippies.

I recorded a haul video last night where I was wearing the dangerzone e/s and some of the lippies but I've been having some major internet problems at my house for the last 3 days. So sad to say, I couldn't get the video up last night despite several tries!

Due to my internet problems at home, I'll be posting swatches courtesy of http://www.temptalia.com

Here's What I Got:

All the MSFs! I just freaking love these things. They give you that glowly skin look like no other. I use them a lot on my clients. The thing with these products are that they only come around once in a while...so when they're around I grab them. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous! The only swatch missing from this pic is Gold Deposit which was the deepest bronze msf.



So Ceylon: When I wear this it's like my skin tone but better. It gives more of an all over glow...as if I'm glowing from the inside. I'm wearing it right now!

Petticoat: This is like light flush MSF except the veining is a berry tone instead of gold...this makes a great highlighter. I like how it has a bit of pink in it so not only does it highlight but it gives a pretty flush finish as well. So pretty!

Soft and Gentle: Talk about the most perfect subtle highlighter ever. This one was the lightest higlighter of them all. If you have darker skin, I would recommend going light with this so it doesn't appear stark white on the skin. I brushed mine onto my cheekbones lightly with a slanted kabuki brush. The color reminds me of a mix of champagne and cream.

Gold Deposit: When I swatched this I gasped over how pretty it was...it looks like pure gold on. I bet this would look amazing as a highlight/shimmer on darker skin tones or a bronzer on others.

Blushes: Enough Said didn't show up on me at all. Stark Naked was actually really beautiful but I was already over my budget so I passed. However, the blushes were so velvety and soft. I think I might have to go back for Stark Naked!

Lippies:



I got two lipsticks - Pomposity and Crazee. The other colors looked dupeable to me, so these are the two that really stood out. The reason I also got them is because they look freaking amazing with the two dazzleglasses I bought.

Pomposity: This is like a light purplish/fuscia. It's a really fun pretty color.
Crazee: This is a bright orangey coral color...really pretty! Who says you can't wear bright colors into the fall?

Dazzlegass: I already had Baby Sparks and Sugarrimmed so I decided to pick up only two more. Miss Dynamite looks amazing over Crazee lipstick! I mean it truly is Crazee! The gold flecks picks up the orange sheen and looks like heaven. Love Alert and I were meant to be...it's a hot pink glitter infusion of color that looks crazy amazing over Pomposity. Last night I wore my Pomposity/Love Alert combo with Soft Plum lipliner all night!
Mineralized Eyeshadow: Lastly, I picked up Dangerzone MES. I saw Pursebuzz rock it and it just looked amazing on her. The three colors are perfect for a rock star look. I also needed another red because I broke my Mi'Lady mineralized e/s :( However, when I swatched the red from my Mi'Lady duo with this one, I noticed that this is a deeper more vibrant red. The Mi'Lady red is a bit lighter with more of a white sheen. I'm glad I picked this one up because it's hard to find a good red eyeshadow out there. The other combos looked nice too, but after I got all my MES's from the Sonic Chic collection and haven't used them since...I didn't want to buy a bunch of pretty products just to have them sit in my drawer.




While at MAC I also pre-ordered two eyeshadow palettes and the brush set. I'm thinking of not getting the brush set anymore though because I'm feeling broke as a joke :( What's a girl to do?
What are you guys picking up from these collections?
