Hi all, I'm new here, and also very new to MAC and all the goodness it has to offer :]

A list of what I got in my first haul ever:

Studio Fix Powder + Foundation
Sheertone Blush in Pinch O' Peach
Powerpoint in Stubborn Brown and Silverplate
Fluidline in Delineate
Paint in Untitled
Prep+Prime Skin (I don't like this!

)

Not a lot, but I promise another haul after my exams because I have officially become an addict who is willing to spend all my money at a MAC counter hahaha! I'm asian, so if anyone has any suggestions for a NC25, feel free to let me know!

Prep+Prime Skin is not supposed to make you skin glow INSANELY. It's supposed to hold you foundation longer then if you wouldn't use it at all, and also to provide a smooth surface (fill in little lines, wrinkles if you have any which you obviously don't, lol) so that your foundation glides on more evenly without blotching. I find it works extremely well in that respect. People who think it's going to give you a glow will be disappointed. That's what Strobe cream is for!

Booyahkasha: Hi! I don't like the Prep+Prime because it makes my face oily and my makeup actually does not stay on as long. Apart from that, I really like how it makes my skin smooth. Perhaps I will figure out a way to make it work for me.

There's plenty of products out there from different lines that have the same purpose but might work better for your skin. If something you purchased isn't working for you, take it back/sell it and get something that will. :thumbsup:

Great first haul BTW! Good products to start out with!
