THE BEST OF THE COLLECTION

The best lip colors were the Strawbaby (love this one!!) and Utterly Frivolous lipsticks. They look beautiful against tan skin and I posted a picture of myself (or my lips) above wearing Strawbaby this weekend! The best lipglass was Cult Fave...the rest were too light or bright for my skin. I didn't love the eyeshadow palettes but Fafi Eyes 1 is definitely the most wearable of the two and has everything you need for a smokey eye. Of the paint pots, I liked Nice Vice the most, and the rest of the pots didn't show up well on my skin. Similarly, I would skip the nail lacquers...way too expensive. Both the powder blushes, Hipness and Fashion Frenzy, are super bright in the pan but go on very sheer and are great for building depending on your skin tone. Saving the best for last, you can't go wrong with any of the the iridescent powders...Sassed-up, Verve-acious and Belightful go on sheer and sparkly so you have to like a little shimmer. I couldn't resist and walked away with Sassed-up, a peachy pink with sparkle.

  2. Strawbaby looks gorgeous, I want to go try this for myself.

    I love that MAC Mahogany and Plum are so in on the runways, these are my favorite pencils from MAC.
