When water is added, the mask heats up and the oils instantly lubricate the skin, leaving it feeling soft and clean. Helps keep skin moist, clean, soft, and evenly-textured. Limited edition. 100 ML/3.4 US FL

Limited edition factor gets me

i read erine's post abt it tht it does help with shrinking pores so i might just try it .

I tried the MES for the first time last night. While Cinderfella looks

in the pot and applied wet on the back of my hand it just wasn't the same going on the eye. I had fallout and I wouldn't consider the fallout to be minimal either. Good thing the sparkles are fine like dust and silver glitters aren't as noticeable on the face. It also just didn't look as intense as I anticipated even foiled. In all fairness though I did used it on the outer v and into the crease. In the future I'll just use these MES on areas where blending is unnecessary.

yeah i find blending it makes it into nothing, like it almost makes it so you cant tell you put it on

it makes all the silver glitter go away, and the black isnt that intense after blending

After blending I swear I had more glitter under my eyes than on my eyes. So to get more glitter on, I just use my finger to get more product and pat it on. Oh well, but I do love it a lot so I'll work with it!

I'm in love with everything I've got. My favourite Collection with Barbie loves MAC

Finally, after so many nights dreaming with it and so many mornings envying you all for having the chance to own and play with it, Style Black arrived today to Mexico and I've got it almost all of it! I'm so super excited!!

but it was entirely worth it... everything i dreamed of. I plan to spend all my weekend playing and enjoying my new lovelies.

They also did that with St. Germain, Costa Chic now that crap is on the website with no triangle at all.... Too bad they did not do that with Lavender Whip however

Okay peeps, the Black GPS is back in stock on mac.com but let's not fall into their marketing tool this time!

Not only is she beautiful and talented, but she takes the time to make her youtube viewers feel appreciated. Here is the link again in case anyone missed it. I hope this works. YouTube - MAC - STYLE BLACK LOOK - YOUNG PUNK & GILT BY ASSOCIATION

I really like this tutorial Jessie is AWESOME and really beautiful. Ima try doing my eyes that way. Well maybe not that dramatic something a bit more toned down. Wish me luck

Between mac.com & .ca I must have been confused.

I do purchase from both sites. But you're right, I ain't going to let MAC fool me!

You can shop on mc.com?

When I go to mac.com it redirects to mac.ca. I know how to get to mc.com if I need to, but I'm shocked they allowed orders from Canada. Really??

Good to know!!

Thanks!

Can't agree with you more on the subject of the good old ugly plain brown boxes mac.ca uses! The other day I received my very first black box and was all

Lol...thats ok!

Ohhh, no wonder the box on that smiley is black! I thought it was to make it MAC themed. Haha. I didn't know it actually existed

HOT!

 

[TeresitaMC]

On mac.ca the sold out items are:

ALL 4 MES
Black GPS (still

)
Midnight Media
Blackfire

Yet the VAE & VATM have stayed put pretty nicely the past week or more lol

It's WAYYYYY more sleek! Make you feel so much more special than receiving a plain brown box.

But with the black box delivery also came some unwanted attention from the UPS delivery guy. The last time he delivered he was chatting with me about makeup and was like "I'll see you at your next black box day!"

And when he delivered something that wasn't mac the 2nd time, when I open the door he said "Sorry, not the black box you want. It's a cell phone this time.

" I was thinking...man....do you give people any privacy? LOL

 

[TeresitaMC]

^ LMFAO!!! That made me laugh so hard!

I think he likes you girl

Maybe I don't want that box then ... lol jk. I want to see this wonderful box lol. Are you in Cali for school? Family? Happy early Thanksgiving even though you're not here
