thanks erine, thats super helpful! I feel much more at ease about grossing people out with my skin.

i just called and made an appointment next week Thursday at 3:00PM at the MAC counter downtown winnipeg, since I have the day off hurrayy! I am super nervous and I told the lady on the phone that it was my first time and she said that I could bring in some photos of looks that I would like. She also said that it is important to communicate with the artist. I don't know what look I want........... X_X I'm guessing that artists find "I don't know" quite annoying?..

I was told that there is a minimum $45 purchase, which is pretty easy for me to do, not so easy on my bank account though *giggles* I'm going with the intention of getting a beauty powder blush and cashflow paintpot... but things never go as planned... I hope I can hold out for Heatherette.... hhahaha... thats the week after my appointment. Maybe I can make another appointment for Heatherette *grins*
