Beauty Tag! MAC products

Here's a MAC Tag!I tag anyone who hasn't done it yet. Enjoy!

How long have you been using Mac? Since I was 19. Didn't know what I was doing but I just kept buying it.

What was your first Mac product? Amber Lights eyeshadow and Instant Gold Lip Glass

What's your all time favourite Mac product? I don't think I have one

What's your least favourite Mac product? Pro long lip colors. Make my lips feel really gross and peel. YUCK

Do you own a Pro Card? No, but I want one.

Your Mac foundation shade? NC45

What's your favourite Mac-Foundation? I love the Studio Stick. My skin tends to be dry and it makes me look "dewey" without looking too caked up. And a little goes a long way with the right brush.

Blusher: Powder Blush in Format, Peach Twist, Sunbasque, Sweet as Cocoa, Breath of Plum, Mountain High and some bronzey color I never use

Powder: Blot Powder/Pressed

Eyeshadow: would have to say my fave is amber lights because i've gone through 2

Lipstick: LoveLorn

Liner: None

Brush:190

Nail Lacquer: Twink Pink

Pro Product: None at this moment

What has been your favourite Mac collection to date? I don't have a favorite. I would always buy them just to buy them. But now that I know what I'm doing, I haven't seen one that I HAVE to have. And that's been a while now.

Which Mac collection, in your opinion, do you think was disappointing, if any? Naked Honey. I wanted to love it.

What products do you think Mac are missing? I'm not sure. but i don't care. I'm ready to try new lines.

I was tagged by the fabulous Olivia


What's your favorite make up look?
A smokey eye. Doesn't matter the colors as long as its smokey lol

Do you have a beauty vice?
Burt's Bees wax lip balm. 

What part of your body do you love?
My hair (when its behaving) and my eyes (b/c I have a lot of room to play with shadows) and my butt in good jeans!

What are your haircare secrets?
No secrets. I just don't follow rules. Don't wash it often. Don't get regular trims. Don't relax often. Just keep it conditioned, wrap it every night and don't use a lot of heat. I don't get split ends and my hair grows like a weed. 

How do you pamper yourself? 
Going to the spa and shopping and eating at really nice restaurants. (treat yourself don't cheat yourself!)

What is your beauty pet peeve? 
Lip liner that is darker than the lipstick, shaving off eyebrows just to draw on thin lines, ungroomed eyebrows.

bottled water, books, Old Bay Seasoning (in case i get to eat crabs...I'M FROM MARYLAND... its what we do).

Finally, do you have a beauty philosophy? 

Embrace your femininity and live in it.
