This is a huge rave for MAC pigments. The entire line is made up of the most stunning vibrant hues with wonderful staying power. I puchased Vanilla and the Norstorm clerk gave me the tester of Pink Opal. The vanilla has just a smidge of gold shimmer while the pink opal resembles the colors in an opal. They are lovely on the lids and in the pots.
My last week haul also included the lipstick Dainty Cake. It is a shimmery coral peach. It is a new color shade for me. I also gobbled up more corals such as monarch, cockatease, sizzlepeach(a shimmery lipglass) and Tartlette(no shimmer). I think I have corals on the brain. I keep drooling over chunky coral beads and the coral branches. There is a great coral branch necklace on Neiman Marcus.com. It retails for around $600.00.
Another great makeup purchase I made a few weeks ago was the Lancome skunk brush. I can not believe I have lived this long without it. MAC also makes a skunk brush but it appears to be sold out everywhere. I am so grateful Chattykathy introduced us(me and cavewoman) to this brush. It deposits just enough color on the cheek. The brush also looks adorable. I highly recommend this to everyone who wears blush. You will never be the same.

MAC Vanilla pigment is one of my favorites. There was a point at which I was wearing it almost every day. It's a great highlighter -- you can dust a wee bit on the apples of your cheeks or even all over for a gentle glow. (When I say a wee bit, I mean it -- a little goes a long way with that stuff.)
Okay, confession time here, I am a fan of MAC. These coral lips and green eyes are going to look so fresh and pretty for Spring!
What I am trying to do is break out of my color rut.
I have yet to delve into the pigment tubes and jars of loose color.
Patti: We will have to play in the pigments the next time we go to Saks. Norstorm did not have many.
Tania: I will have to try the vanilla on my cheeks. I also have the pink opal and it is so pretty. I am so late to the MAC bandwagon.
A new collection exclusive to Nordstrom is due out soon. Looks like another road trip for us!
