Well, I had only planned on picking my my 226 brushes. However, I couldn't resist Carbonized or Stunner! I don't wear many browns, as a lot of them just look weird against my skintone. Carbonized is absolutely gorgeous, and will make an awesome smoky eye! Stunner swatched a bit sheer on my arm using a Qtip, but when the artist gave me a brush, it looked very nice, and blended out beautifully! I put it on as soon as I got home, using a 116. It is gorgeous against my NW15(ish) skin! It's not too warm, but definitely not cool. It really brightens up my face.
Oh, and my 226 brushes look good. They're a nice taper. They're not pointy like a pencil brush, but they fit in my crease very nicely. I have small, somewhat hooded eyes. Brushes such as the 217 are too large for my crease, and will deposit colour halfway up to my brow. These do not!
For anyone wondering, both of the brushes I picked up are Made in France.
Oh, and the Artist hooked me up with samples of strobe cream and lotion. I can't believe I've never tried them, but a lot of MAC skin products break me out. Also, she took my pre-order for Lightscapade and Porcelain Pink.
All this, and a 2nd Sephora opening in my city tomorrow. It's a good way to end the week
