M.A.C Haul/Review

Hello guys!!

So this year Santa got me a voucher for the Brown Thomas store which sells M.A.C makeup products in Ireland, amongst other things.  So i am just going to share with you what I got.



I absolutely love M.A.C products and it was great to get a voucher because I ran out of my essentials. I decided to get the M.A.C Duo Fibre Brush because I wanted a more even and clean finish.


M.A.C Duo Fibre Brush
I got number 187 of the M.A.C Duo Fibre Brush and I use it for stippling on my foundation and also for blending face powder. Furthermore, it states that it is made from goat and synthetic fibres. The brush itself feels so soft on the  skin and the makeup appears blended , clean and even.



M.A.C Mineralize Skinfinish- Soft and Gentle


The next product i acquired was the M.A.C Mineralize Skinfinish in the shade Soft and Gentle. The packaging it really professional which I love and the product itself is luxurious. It is incredibly soft and has a slight shimmer finish.



It applies smooth and lustrous, it polishes the face and leaves a satin finish. I use it as a highlight, on top of the cheek bones, the bridge of the nose and also on the brow bone . This product will get a lot of use.





M.A.C Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation- NC20


This product is my favorite out of the lot, and possibly my favorite in general. This is the M.A.C Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation in the shade NC20 as I am very pale. This is a powdered foundation that leaves a matte and full coverage finish. I never liked powder foundations prior to using this product because it always appeared as though i wasn't wearing any foundation at all. I also love that it has a matte finish because my skin is ultra oily and I did NOT want a glossy looking face. I did not need to apply powder after applying this product. The skin appeared smooth ,blemish free and absolute almost completely flawless.






It claims to stay on for 8 hours which I would be inclined to agree with.


































The last product I want to discuss , is the satin lipstick i got. 




M.A.C Satin Lipstick- Snob





This is the M.A.C Satin lipstick in the shade of Snob.  This lipstick has actually got a soft scent to it. It is not sticky which i notice with a lot of lipsticks and it has a real creamy texture to it which i LOVE!!!  I will definitely be getting more lipsticks from  M.A.C once i have the money of course. 



That's everything I got. If you have these products let me know, or if you have any questions!! :)

  6. I love MAC's Satin Lipsticks, I wear "Faux" all the time! They do have a really nice, soft feeling to them and never get sticky - totally worth the cost I think!
