** RECS FOR MAC PRO PRODUCTS - please help :) **

[blindpassion]

Hey everyone! Ok, so, I need all of your help.
Im finally going to be getting to a MAC PRO store in October, I am a complete MAC addict but I know NOTHING about pro products, having never been there.

For you all who have been to the pro store, can you give me some recs for MUST HAVE pro products, I know I'm not going to have another chance for quite a few months to get over there, I think I'm going to have a 200 - 300 dollar budget.

So everyone, on a 200 - 300 dollar budget, what would you buy at the pro store and recommend?

Thanks SO much for your help, I'm clueless without you guys!
I am NW15 - 20 if that helps

I'm a pigment lover, so I'd buy lots of pigments!

Yes pigment... I love bright fuscia pigment and I heard pink vivid was a good one with that I will get it soon go to macpro.com and look at the pigments that are marked pro and see what colors you like. Pro pans for shadows and look atnthe new pro shadows I like blue calm the have so many! Dont forget your mixng medium its a must! The new reflects look to die for too. They also have loose beauty powders!

Thanks ladies, that's helpful. Yep I've been to the site and looked around, I'm guessing thats where I'll compile my list from.

Does anyone else have other favs? let me knoww, thanks

Hyperreal pressed powders are also very nice,.. and now that they have the loose beauty powders,.. I would stock up on those too.

mixing medium! you have to have this from the pro store to make your pigments extra vibrant....and emerald green p/g...face n body foundation. the coverage is medium to thick (for me) but it doesnt fel like youre wearing anything on your face.

Pigments for sure, but if you get them get the mixing medium as well

While you are there you should take advanatge of the PRO items not available in stores/counters like the new loose beauty powders or some of the new matte eyeshadows too!

Go for it all...The first items I would get are the Eyeshadows like Blue Cam and Indian Ink , Atlantic Blue. Then I would hit up the Pigments Deep Blue Green, Dusty Coral, Rose Gold make sure you get mixing medium. A few lipsticks just to name a few. I would only get PRO items.
