MAC Style Black LE live preview @ MAC pro store Berlin

Hia! 

Yesterday I had the great opportunity to have a look at new MAC Style Black LE! Got an invitation for the preview party! Yay! First time ever. 

Really cute event, brought one of my colleagues because Gina couldn ´t make it.

Most of the MACcines wore the black lipstick and the new Mineralize Eyeshadows. They had a little catering with snacks and drinks and a DJ (oh god^^ even THOSE boys wore smokey eyes^^ so fricking sweet. Never thought a guy with make up on could look so hot *drools*). 

The really dumb part was that they only had ONE displayer for all the guests... couldn ´t really see much of the stuff^^.

I wanted all four eyeshadows but the blue one was already out :( So I got the In The Gallery quad from the other MAC LE instead. Will definitely  buy the blue one when they´re officially available ^^

It´s been a really nice event with all the nice artists there- doing the make up on everyone who wanted- and boy that rocked! The eyeshadows are AMAZING!!!!

HAUL!

So one more post today :)

Teamed up with G1N4 (colorlyrics.blogspot.com) today to buy some make up.

We´ve been to the KaDeWe in Berlin where aaaaall Make up dreams come true^^

Been running around to have a look at all the counters there but nothing really stood out..EXCEPT MAC, benefit and NARS.

I wanted to have a look at the NARS stuff but I have to stay I really wasn´t that impressed. Heard so much about the "Orgasm" blush but that thing really didn´t pull my trigger.

Got the the MAC counter where Gina had picked up two Paintpots for her birthday in october. She picked Artifact and Fresco Rose. I got a new 15 p e/s palette (not on the pics), Duo adhesive for false laches, 189 brush (GOSH! I never knew MAC has a brush like that! Been over the moon!). I also got the Minted eye kohl.

After that Gina and I walked over to the Benefit counter where the counter girl did her make up- really sweet. I got a new eye liner brush and the Powderflage concealer (such a great thing!).

Out of the KaDeWe wasn´t the end of the trip :)

After this we stopped by the drugstore DM and I bought a little palette from Maybelline, some extravagant eyelashes and a midtone pink lipliner and a white/colorless lipliner.

Had so much fun today!  Hope I´ll be able to play around more with my Make up.

SIGMA brushes!

Finally!

Last weekend I ordered my first Sigma brushes. Read some reviews about them and wanted to give them a go.

I ordered the "Naughty in black" travel kit and an additional eyeshadow brush. And I got a gift! They sent me a little skunk brush from the "nice in pink" set aswell. So nice!

Sigma brushes don´t actually only look like MAC brushes, they do have the same numbers ^^. I was really impressed with the quality and the fact that they don´t cost as much as a MAC brushes. All brushes are really soft and easy to handle and the given brushroll is really cute!

A+!

The "my-purse-hates-me"-haul ^^

Damn it ^^

I originally planned to visit MAC today to get a backup for Smoke and Diamonds. And I needed a new 15-piece-eyeshadow palette...

Too bad that the other Starflash eyeshadows of the LOVE THAT LOOK collection were so pretty :)

I couldn´t resist and bought:

Ego

Style Snob

Fashion

and Smoke and Diamonds of course

and I had to adopt Molasses and Black Russian pearlglide liner. These were two of the colors I had left out as SUITE ARRAY came out. 

And guess what? I walked home and just remembered that I had totally forgotten the palette...well..seems I have to go to MAC one more time this month.

ooohhh Poor purse xD

Another haul^^

I have been shopping with my Mom and Dad today in Berlin´s big shopping mall called Alexa trying to find some neat pretty clothes for my sisters wedding in october...Well I´m still all wrecked, I really don´t like shopping (unless it´s make up^^) and at the shopping mall it was just too much of everything: Noise, people,noisy people ^^,stores,too loud music, too much hectic and oh did I mention the mass of people???? *grml* Just hate places like that, being caged in a 3 floor building with a uncountable amount of people rushing in your way....

Nonetheless I was compensating the stress with some nice Bobbi Brown stuff and a new brush.

above: Black Mauve Shimmer ink long-wear gel eyeliner

above: Galaxy long-wear cream eyeshadow

above : Cobalt ink long-wear gel eyeliner

Altogether with the Davinci brush (by Douglas). A small firm synthetic brush, great for concealer or blending foundation around the nose or the under eye area.

P.S.: Oh and I did NOT find any fitting clothes! That is why I don´t like shopping...

MAC Haul with G1N4

Yay! Went MAC shopping with my best friend Gina today, really needed some of these goodies to light up my face ^^

I got

Daft Pink mineralized blush

210 brush

Buckwheat eyeshadow (Honey-just-forgot-the-name- LE)

Copperplate eyeshadow

Handwritten eyeshadow

Black Black chromaline

Fresco Rose paintpot

Indianwood paintpot

Reflects Pearl gltiter

New MAC lip stuff

Picked up a little parcel from my post office with some MAC lip stuff today.

Since the Cremeteam LE was available I was sneaking around the Lickable lipstick. I got Marquis ´D, Creme de Nude,Creme Cup,Creme in your coffee and Lavender Whip (if I´ll ever wear this in public?) from that LE and I love them! But Lickable seemed so hot pink that I thought it would suit me. 

*sigh* but I wouldn´t be a REAL MAC addict if I wouldn´t fall for this right?

So here it is: Lickable......

oh and I got Dervish lip pencil with the order as well. I only have a Cremestick Pearl liner called Gingerroot and I barely touch it...

New MAC stuff

This is my mini mini MAC haul :)

I´ve been a good girl and only picked what I had really planned.

I got the 226 brush (FINALLYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!! It is absolutely amazing!) and the Mineralize Blush Hand-finish...which actually appears to be more like a typical MSF on my skin...not much pigmentation but quite a lot sheen..pretty though^^

MAC Haul

Went to MAC today and got some new goodies:

Brush Cleanser

Studio Sculpt Foundation NC15

Brushes 224 and 187

MAC and NYX haul

I got a package today with my very first stuff from NYX cosmetics.

I got a Silver pigment and 3 Jumbo Pencils

Pacific (blue), Cottage Cheese (white) and Slate (steelgrey).

The pencils are really smooth and easy to apply. Can´t say much about how they last, haven´t 

tried them jet.

 

So the master overkill was the MAC shopping I did with a friend today.

 

 I bought:

Prep and Prime face (backup)

Carbon eyeshadow (refill)

Post haste  eyeshadow (they didn´t have refills left but I wanted that color so much^^)

4 travel jars

Glitter reflects turquatic and crystalled purple ( I am going to share the Glitters with my friend, so eveyone gets half-half of each one, that´s what the jars are for)

And I bought overlaquer and underlaquer.
