Most Used: Vintage Grape Blush Ombre

LetDowns:

[JocelynGL]

Surprise Favorites: Superslick liquid liners. I love these! I bought Marked for Glamour and Smoky Heir. Very smooth application and they look much better on than I would have though. I was only fiddling with the demo tubes because it was so busy in the store and one of the things I needed wasn't up on the counter or shelves so I had to wait for a MUA to help me. I hope they come out with more.
Til Tomorrow prowear lipstick- I almost always wear lipgloss so lipsticks have to be pretty awesome to impress me, and this is such a beautiful nude yet not too cold a shade
Gone Romancin. I wasn't impressed by any of the dazzleglasses from Tartan Tale when I saw the first pics online- until I saw the Makeupgeek video review and got a bit curious after she put it on... so I tried it on today in the store and OMG I am in love. I may buy another tube

Most Used: Buddy Up mineralize blush, it is seriously such a perfect natural flush shade for me and I'm so glad you only need a tiny bit because I wear it all the time.

Most Beautiful: Buddy Up, Briar Rose, Tan pigment, Gone Romancin, Black Swan, Icescape lipglass (from the Nordstrom kit and yeah I know it's not a brand new product but it's new to me)

All Around Winners: Buddy Up, Gone Romancin

#1 Top Winner - I would have to say Buddy Up because the color is gorgeous but not too much for daytime, and though I wear it a LOT you can barely tell it's been used.



Product I'm Hopeful About - Pro Longwear Concealer that I picked up today. I need to try it out starting in the morning and see how it holds up in sunlight, how long it stays looking good etc

[LisaOrestea]

Surprise Favorites: Instant Chic Blusher, wasn't sure I would like this one but kinda got intrigued by the hype and picked it up for cheap from a seller on here. BEST WHIM PURCHASE EVER!

Most Used: Personal Style Beauty Powder Blush (I know it was '09 in the US but I didn't get this til Jan ) - This is my perfect contour colour. I should probably look at getting a backup one at some point! Vanitys Child Lipstick (I don't know what year this was but I picked it up at a CCO in March.) and Instant Chic Blusher (this stuff makes me look alive when I don't feel it )

Most Beautiful: Hang Loose Mineralize Blush (GORGEOUS!!! The purple side looks like magic

)

All Around Winners: Personal Style, Instant Chic, Hang Loose (MAC have done really well with the blushers this year!)

Top 5 Lipstick Shades: Blooming Lovely, Vanitys Child, Viva Gaga (these are the only 3 MAC lipsticks I have bought this year haha - except for my High Top backup)

Top 5 Letdowns: Only one letdown this year (because I havn't bought much MAC) Later Pigment - I just cant get this to work AT ALL. It just looks an ugly purple/grey on me :'( even over my pixie epoxy. Maybe I got a bad batch

 

[katred]

Now that you mention it, they certainly have. Between the Beauty Powders, blushes and MSFs, they've had a lot of winners. I don't ever recall a year when I was so excited about the blushes in any given collection. They always tend to come off as afterthoughts, but this year, they were often the stars.
