I have wanted to get some MAC lipstick for years and a couple of weeks ago, I made my first MAC purchase in Harrods, in London. I didn't take any photos as I was too eager to use them but I restrained myself this time and have saved them to write a blog post about, just for you! (the first products were a Paintpot in Vintage Selection and a lipstick in Fanfare for anyone that's interested).
I went in to the MAC shop in Nottingham with the intention of buying another lipstick and an eye shadow, but what I came out with was very different. I did buy a lipstick in See Sheer (lustre) but I also got an eye shadow quad.

I asked one of the assistants in the shop as I was having trouble deciding between a few colours so she suggested one which I really liked and, I had purposely not worn eye shadow, she applied the first colour (satin taupe) to my eye lid and it looked really nice on its own. To better it, she added a dark brown (embark) to the outer corners and crease then a light matte brown (wedge) to blend them together and finished with a pale colour (shroom) in the inner corners and as a highlight on my brow bone. It was lovely! I was initially only going to get Satin Taupe but my Mum offered to pay for the quad palette as a late Christmas prezzie so I could get all four and attempt to recreate the look myself. Thanks Mum!
