First Purchase: 266 brush (
), cork e/s and Studio Fix. It wasn't love at first use, in fact Studio Fix made me brake out like hell. I didn't buy MAC again until January of this year (so I didn't repurchase in like 7 years) and in just these few months I've gotten to the degree of MAC addict and also almost broke.
Products I can't live without: Brow Set, Viva Glam V lipglass, nanogold eye shadow (should've gotten a back up
), 219, 266 and skunk brush, powerpoint eyeliners, bare study p/p.

My first MAC purchase was in the mid-90s and it was a Spice lip pencil. I saw my "cool" older cousin use Spice lip liner with a tanarama type lipstick (you know the dark liner with a light lipstick) and I thought that was the best thing ever.
It wasn't enough to get me hooked as I realized that look was not for me so during high school I saw a friend use a MAC Old Gold pigment and from then on I was hooked!
My can't live without products from MAC are Studio Fix Fluid, 187 brush, and nightfish fluidliner.

First mac product(s): the year was early 2004, and the products were rule and melon pigment.
chrome yellow, corn shadestick, golden lemon pigment and aquadisiac were soon to follow...as in...a couple days after hahaha. and so the addiction began!
Can't live without: blot loose powder, amber lights and tendertones; we're in love.

i first purchased indigo eye pencil, so there jade and bordeauxline powerpoint eye pencils... i was "just-an-eyeliner-is-more-than-enough" girl back then... (a year ago!)
then i got hooked when i returned my royal assets metallic eyes (which i regret now that i do a LOT of make up!) and got humid, shimmermoss and tempting in return.
now, i can't live without my shadesticks (especially taupographic) and my shroom e/s.

1) Amberlights eyeshadow. The one that got me hooked. Funny thing is I don't use it much.
2) Not so much "can't live without", but the Volcanic Ash Exfoliator is a real star. The Tendertones in Honey Bare, Sweet Tooth and Take a Hint and also Light Flush MSF are pretty darn nice.

The first things i purchased where Swish and Sinnamon. I was 17 at the time. I didnt get hooked right away... I thought it was OUTRAGEOUS paying almost $40 for 2 pieces of makeup.... I only bought a few things every now and again till about 2 summers ago when I bought samples of the She Shines pigments off ebay. After trying pigments I was hooked!!! I just wish I had bought full jars of those ones.. I loved them
My cant live without items are my 187 brush, blacktrack or blitz and glitz fluidlines, C-thru lipglass

I was turned on to MAC by my FAB friend Twan, he gave me a gift card for my 22 bday, 6 yrs and thousands of dollars later, I'm definitely a MAC FIEND.
first purchase- patina e/s, chestnut l/l, and the "MA assures you that every WOC needs" OH BABY.
I wasn't hooked from the products, because at the time a didn't have a clue of what I was doing, I was hooked on the sheer atmosphere and excitement of the store and the LIVE A FAB and MAKEUP FILLed life type of VIBE MAC gives you. I love It!!

1) Shroom eye sahdow. And yes,it was definitely love in a first apply!
2) This is hard, there are so many things which I totally love.. But.. I have to say 187 brush. I use it everyday and it is in my opinion very versitaile and perfection as a brush. It would be also hard to imagine to be without MAC's eye shadows, fluidlines and pigments.
