MAC eyeshadow haul + swatches

My package from MAC arrived today and you know what that means!
 
I ordered 5 neutral purple/burgandy/based eyeshadows and I love them all


I am so excited to use them. I love neutrals + purples so I thought these eyeshadows would be perfect.





I got
Haux - Soft muted rosy brown
Sketch- Burgandy with red shimmer
Trax- Burgundy Plum with shimmer
Embark- Intense reddish brown
Satin Taupe- Taupe with Silver shimmer
For some reason, Haux didn't really show up on my skin ):

Thank you for reading

Viva Glam Nicki 2!

I purchased this the day it came out. I owned the first Viva Glam Nicki lipstick and lipgloss but I ended up returning the lipstick. I hated it on me but I loved the gloss.

This looked way better than the first one so I was sold even before it was released. Also, it reminded me of MAC Pink Friday which I never got my hands on so I jumped at the opportunity.


Viva Glam Nicki 2 is a purple blue based lipstick. 


I am wearing both gloss and lipstick in this one. My feelings are mixed on the lipstick. For some reason, I feel like it doesn't work on me. I don't know if it's because of my tan skin or my lip shape. I can't point it but I don't like how it looks on me. I can't make it work. Debating if I should return it or not

I do however LOVE the gloss. I love the purple/pink pastel .

I feel like Nicki Minaj in her "Va Va Voom" video while wearing this on my lips haha

DO YOU OWN THIS LIPSTICK/GLOSS?

How to: Depot your MAC e/s. Easy!


Wow, I feel really productive! 2 posts in a row?
I think I might be going back to my old hobby of blogging haha 

I am sure there are a BUNCH of How to depot your mac eyeshadow tutorials out there but I decided to share this anyway

It is SUPER easy. It takes less than 5 minutes

Shall we start?

First things first,

You'll need
-A straightener
-A knife
-Your MAC eyeshadow that you want depotted

This is MAC Newly Minted in case you're wondering


Step one:
Preheat straightener and grab your knife and pop out the eyeshadow

Step two:
Place the piece that you just popped out in to your straightener

Wait a minute then put the other piece in to the straightener

Step three:
After 30 seconds, take out the pot (leave the eyeshadow for another minute) then pop out the sticker label

 After, take out the eyeshadow and push it out

 Step four:
Place the sticker label into the eyeshadow
Step five (optional):
Buy a magnet and place under the eyeshadow. I didn't do this step

 Then place it in your eyeshadow case :)




Hold on to the pot. Collect six and go back to MAC to get a free eyeshadow or lipstick ;)


I hope this helped!
