my very first CCO haul (or haul at all, really!)

[eowyn797]

Fluidlines: Brassy, Idol Eyes and Royal Wink

Cream Color Bases: Bronze, Flighty and Slick (OMG, i have no idea how to use these but they were so pretty, i just had to get them! rec me how to use them properly? pretty please?)

Close-up, yay!

Sheer Shimmer Powder: Pretty Indulgent

e/s: Rio De Rosa and Belle Azure!

Paint: Sublime Nature

Shadesticks: Penny, CedarRose, Silverbleu and Shimmermint (so many of you use these in your FOTDs, i just had to pick some up to try out)

I also got a nice full-sized set of the CALM line from Rodan & Fields because my face is just...it hates me and i need to try out a different clensing system and i was not ABOUT to pay $85 for something that might not even work....so i got it today and paid $34 from the CCO

*dances* I AM SO HAPPY!

total damage: $167. i love my CCO.

i am going to become a serious addict, now that i know where to go.

seriously though, i have no idea how to use those Cream Bases or the Shadesticks, aside from what i've seen in FOTDs, so if anyone can link me to good places to learn...i'd be greatful!

i was planning to purchase my very first ccb this weekend too and omg, i really want slick! it looks so pretty there!

 

[queenofdisaster]

nice haul! <3 sorry but i dunno how to use ccbs either! i just wanted to agree on how pretty they are

 

[eowyn797]

thanks, guys...i just knew i had to have Slick when i saw it...the other two were just bonus

i used Slick and Bronze as plain ol' cream e/s on my bf tonight (we went to a party) and it seems to have worked really well. it went on very smoothly and i hardly had to use any of it at all. it's got a lovely shimmer to it and it blended really easily too.

i guess, like most things MAC, you can use it for just about anything

they're great for cream e/s, and as an e/s base- you can also use them on your cheeks, and some on your lips- make sure you check to see if the shades you have are eye and lip safe.

great stuff

 

[MacVirgin]

Hoorray for your first haul ever!!!

 

[foxyqt]

wow the pictures are so yummy! LoL!! I like Penny & CedarRose s/s =)

 

[user79]

Awesome haul!

I have the Bronze CCB and I use it quite a bit. I use it on my cheeks underneath powder blush, as an eyeshadow base for bronze & gold & brown looks, and as a lipstick base sometimes too! It's very versatile.

 

[Esperanza]

My gosh, I fell in love with your Brassy f/l

Very nice haul lady, and good choice for the CCB's!

I've got Shell CCB (a nice pearly beige) and I use it as an eye-shadow base, all over the lid with my finger, to enhance e/s color (neutral ones).

 

[User34]

omg.. the haul looks great! I think I need to check out my cco.. if there is even one around here!

 

[ebonyannette]

That is a great haul for only $167!!! I wish we had a CCO out here.
Congrats.

 

[pumpkincat210]

wowza! that cco had alot of stuff. I want to go to one so bad!!

 

[eowyn797]

oh yeah, they had tons of stuff...it's too bad i'm allergic to most MAC foundation and lipstick/gel/gloss/glass, because they just had TONS of *that* stuff.

those were actually the only two colors of e/s they had, but i had been looking for both of them anyway, so...score!

i'd totally take in requests next time i went, if people wanted. seems like almost everything they had was somewhere between $9-$11.

 

[ohhhhhthehorror]

Wow, nice haul.
