I've been interested in make up for a while but not overly interested til lately, I have some make up that I'll list but I plan on going to MAC and CCO sometime this week once I get paid, so what are some basics or must haves that I should get

I use MAC Mineralize Satinfinish in NC25 for foundation so you can get a basic idea of my face color if that helps for what other eyeshadows, lip glosses etc i should get.

anndd now, the other make up I have already. (Mostly palettes)

-Delights: 6 Eye/Cool Palette : Zinc Bar (L), Pale Out (F), Tabby (L), Nocturnelle (F), Sumptuous Olive (VP), Grey Grape (M)
-Motif e/s
-Viva Glam V l/g

-Deluxe Shadow Box Palette : Fishnet, Honey, Ransom, Graffiti, Zero, Peace, Shag, Scratch, Underground

SMASHBOX

you and i have the same skintone, and let me tell you...mac mocha powder blush is amazing! you might want to take a look at a face highlighter as well, like mac soft and gentle msf or nars albatross.

mac prrr lipglass, mac oyster girl lipglass, mac power supply plushglass and mac viva glam v lipglass are some nice glosses you might want to check out, as well. if you're looking for a good nude lip colour, mac honeylove lipstick is pretty nice. mac viva glam II is nice too, but i find it looks a little ashy on me when used alone so i have to use a gloss over it. oh, and mac stripdown lip pencil! muuust have!

as far as eyes, i'd go with some nice neutrals and highlight colours like cork eyeshadow, tempting eyeshadow, and vanilla eyeshadow. perhaps carbon eyeshadow too, in case you ever want to do a dramatic smoky eye. and of course, blacktrack fluidline!
