i'm not really a fan of the foundations. i used to love them, but i guess my chemistry has changed because now they just don't agree at all with my skin. they smell funny, too.

I really wish they would slow down with all these collections, its too expensive to buy from 3 collections every month. I think one every other month would be better.

I really don't like trios or pallets, cause I hardly ever use them, i much prefer the single eyeshadows where I can make my own combinations.

I don't really like sharkskin shadestick, I have never used it yet (other than tring it on the back of my hand)

And i don't like that the paints gush out of the tube, I waste so much because of this.

End of Rant, lol!

Whats so bad about zoomlash? I have it, and its not bad. And why do ppl not like their foundations? Their foundations are the only ones that cover up everything. I cant stand how they dont list the ingredients on the website though.

It looks so good on others but not on me, I've tried putting gloss over it and I still don't like it.

zoom lash makes my lashes darn clumpy even IF i'm very careful with it.

and it's NOT WATERPROOF NOR SMUDGEPROOF

regret buying it.
 
I don't like their base makeup, especially foundations which broke me out horribly!

I also don't like their lipsticks (except Ampified Creme), lipglosses, and several other things. I have quite sensitive skin.

But I LOVE their eyeshadows, pigments, brushes, and MSFs

I changed my mind. I HATE ZOOMLASH... i got the free sample whn i placed my order last week and it is WORTHLESS mascara. WORTHLESS.. I wanted to kill myself.... it clumped my lashes soooo bad. Im just glad it was free. What a waste of product.

I'm still mad at myself for buying Fafi Eyes 2 quad. I kinda want to get rid of it.
Most of the other stuff, I love.

The only things I regret purchasing from MAC were my 169 brush and Melrose Mood l/s from Heatherette. Both were "have to have it cuz its LE" purchases.

Honestly, Lustre finish e/s have a bad rap but I have Casino e/s (I think it was LE) which is a lustre and it is my HG! So smoothy and buttery AND sparkley!

Okay, I just remembered: the thing I don't like about MAC in general is their nail laquers. There are some good ones released with special collections, but their perm range is just BORING.

I haven't tried lots of the MAC stuff, mostly use their eye shadows because the stuff is hard to get here! There are 3 Mecca stores in Perth and only one carries MAC (or maybe the one in Claremont carries a limited supply, but still) the same with DJ/Myers. There is practically one at every damn mall BUT only the one downtown carries MAC and then you have to park, fight the crowds and fight all the teenagers to get to the counter AND they still won't have half the things that are on display. You look, find what you want and the MA says "oh, we are all out of that in MAC but it is just the same as ____ Stila or _____ Nars". If I wanted Stila (not near the pigment as MAC, thanks) or Nars, I would have gone to a Mecca close to home!! What is up with that!
I haven't found a mascara or foundation by MAC that I like. I do like the black cap perfume and Turquatic is good for summertime, I think. I mostly order online so I rely on sites like this and swatches!! I can't wait to move back to the US and have access to real MAC stores and Sephora and such!
Wow, there are a lot of exclamation points in there.

Ok - So Glad I get to vent...

I HATE all the mascaras - The X one wasn't soo bad but still not as rockin as my covergirl lashexact and lashblasts.

I'm only ok about the lip conditioners. I have the original and thought - hmm had to try the tinted one -- ehh no change of opinion.. but cute mild color for those very calm blah days that i can't motivate to actually 'put on' my face. I wish maybe that there was one with a bit of tingle/mintyness to it.

and I Loathe the Studio Tech - I had one compact and somehow got through it - (I'm cheap what can I say? if I buy it - i have to use it) but besides it feeling a tad bit cakey - it made me break out badly by the time I had had enough. Never again.

I would LOVE if make had an awesome lip plumper though!

Beauty marked e/s makes me cranky. I'm not too keen on cremeblushes either. Other than that I'm pretty easygoing.

Don't hate me but I don't like MAC eyeshadows but I LOVE all the pigments I think they are easier to blend. I also agree with a lot of you MAC mascara haters not good! My last least fave are the glaze lipsticks what a waste of $$$ IMO!
