Review: MAC’s Angel


002
I picked up this lipstick on my trip to New York and I fell in love. This is my first MAC lipstick and I can see why everyone in the beauty world loves these lipsticks.  They are creamy, pigmented, and are moisturizing.  There is a wide range of colors but I decided to pick up Angel because its one of the more talked about lipsticks on youtube.

As you can see by the swatch above, Angel is a very pretty natural pink that’s on my lips is almost like a “my lips but better.” color. I love to wear this with natural looks or smokey looks. It’s a very shimmery, frosty color. I love the way it catches the light.

I look forward to trying more of MAC’s lipsticks in the future. What are some of your favorites?

Reviw: MAC's Sable

 On my trip to New York, I stopped by MAC and picked up my very first MAC products. The first is an eyeshadow in Sable.  This eyeshadow is amazing!! I know MAC shadows are supposed to be great but I was suprised how pretty this is.

Here's a quick swatch. This color is a frosty brown with some golden red under town to it.  It's perfect to wear alone smoked out or in the crease and it blends super easily.  This shadow didn't crease at all! I applied it at 8 am and when I got home at 10 pm there was no creasing whatsoever!
MAC eyeshadows retail for $15 or for $12 in pro palette pan form and are available at any MAC counter, store or on the MAC website.  I'm extremely happy with this shadow and would love to add more to my collection one day.  What are some of your favorite MAC shadows that you would recommend?
