CCO: MAC haul

Ever since I found out about a local CCO in my neighboring areas I have been crazy about buying MAC cosmetics. I normally go here and buy the majority of my MAC products because the price is unbelieveable. I am now really into fixing up my whole makeup collection and learning the best ways "for me" to apply and do makeup. I bought a few things specifically because I am loving the way purples complement my complexion. Here we go!




This palette is called In The Gallery with a price of $24.50 and these colors are very pigmented and they are soft and some mauvy purples which will make a perfect smokey eye. I like the fact that it is a day to night compact with lighter colors as well as a deeper mauvy color to kick it up a notch lol : P






This color is called Violet Trance with a price tag of $10.25 and is a very strong electric purple and caught my eye right of the bat. Now this color looks nothing like the color in person at all but I guess this will have to do until I swatch. It was so vibrant and rich in color that I couldnt leave without this baby. It was more powerful than was I went looking for but I think I could blend this baby really good and tone it up or down.






This hot pink barbie lipglass color is called True Babe and was $10.25 and I didnt plan on getting this one but when I tried it on me and my sister were like "get it gurl" lol and I felt like I could really pull this one off. It has such a nice creamy texture to it and the color doesnt overpower my feature and I think this one is a GO.











Now this baby is a beauty and I had been looking at it since I first found out about this CCO and I finally broke down and bought it. This is the MAC 183 is a flat buffer brush that was a whopping $28.00 but was well worth it. It feels amazing and I feel it will get the job done for giving me a nice buffed, finished HD kinda look. The bristles are really soft and dense enough to put in some work. This is actually my first MAC brush and hopefully not my last but I am getting ready to order some Sigma brushes lol.


Now I promise to not come back a year later like I did lol but Im settled now and I promise to give you the hauls that were missed on here really soon, a years worth lol. I will also do looks on these products as well as reviews. See ya later and it feels good to be back : )
