lookie what the MAC dragged in..

hiya dollfaces! so i did a bit of haulin' at the mac counter (shocking but true) here are the goods:

i got the mac brush cleanser which i am really please with. it is fantastic for everyday cleanup... especially after using dark colors! i deep clean once a week with baby shampoo and my brushes are very satisfied.

i also picked up a bottle of fix+ which i can't stop using. i use it to set my makeup and i'll spray it on a brush, swipe it in some shadow and BAM! insta-eyeliner!

as you probably know i also picked up the brand new mascara OPULASH and am completely in love with it!!! i hope you have entered my giveaway!!

now onto the makeup-makeup...

this is the beautiful bright fuscia-ish pink called speak louder. it is a cremesheen formula and is gorgeous. i wasn't particularly in the mood for a bright pink lipstick, but my mac mua/good friend pointed it out to me as her pick of the day and i was sold! i look forward to wearing this when i'm tan!!

next up i got two things from the art supplies collection. first up... which has been all the rage, apparently, on youtube and blogs is a greasepaint stick in dirty!

this is my first foray into the greasepaint sticks and i'm in love! it is a wonderful taupey gray and it works extremely well as a base, liner, outer corner and crease color. it is water resistant and is a limited edition... go out and buy at least one... the colors are fantastic!! me thinks i may get two more this week! p.s. you can pull the end off that shows the color of the stick and you will find a sharpener there!! yay!

and last, but not least...
the pearlglide liners are amazing! the one that stuck out to me most was almost noir... it is a magnificent bordeaux color with gold shimmer. so incredibly beautiful and perfect to give your everyday look a little something extra.

p.s. click here to watch a look with dirty and almost noir that's quick and easy!

what new goodies have you dollies gotten recently?? do tell...

china glaze mania!

hiya dollfaces! so you know those days when the only thing that will make you happy is a new nail polish? well, that was me on thursday... so off to sally i went! the main reason i went was to find something alittle lighter than flyin' high... which i reviewed earlier and looks alittle something like this..

i found what i was looking for in this gem...

for audrey (my new favorite nail polish)

here are the two side by side...

for audrey is flyin' high's brother from another mother! i'm in LOVE with it... so ridiculously gorgeous and i cannot wait to have a pedicure with this color!! hello springtime!!! God bless china glaze and their buy 2 get 1 free offer so my arm was twisted to pick up two other colors...

this is something sweet... it's a lovely light pinkie... i love light pastel shades and this is just beautiful. i'm glad that it is opaque in two coats instead of the pink sheer colors i am used to that take forever to reach the desired shade. 5 stars for china glaze!

this is high hopes... i'm a bit leery of this as it seems very orange-alish on me. but i will wait until i'm more tan and give it another go. it may make a great pedicure shade as well... stay tuned!

soooo... tell me dollfaces... what are some new polish shades you are coveting at the moment??

another mac haul... somebody stop me!

hi dolls! so i was drawn back to the mac counter to check out the liberty of london collection and ended up splurging on all this. have a looksie!

left to right: lipglass cultured, e/s birds and berries, lipglass perennial high style, msf natural in medium+, and the new 130 brush

this is birds and berries from mac's new liberty of london collection... i had to buy a couple of goodies from the collection because of the supercute packaging! ha. (read: that's how they always get me!) this shade is a winner!! it's a wonderful teal and me likey!! the best part is it's veluxe pearl.. which we all know makes everything better. p.s. i just made my first video for youtube using this... check it out... and subscribe... pretty please?! http://www.youtube.com/user/theanniedollfaceshow


this is the lipglass in perennial high style... i'm in love with the color of this... a glorious peach. however, the formulation just seems a bit sticky and thick (even as far as lipglasses go)! i will muddle through and use it, though, as i'm really into peachy coral lips at the moment. i wouldn't recommend this one, dollfaces.

have you purchased anything from this collection... thoughts??


this is the 130 brush and i bought it because i think i've heard it's limited edition. i haven't figured out all of my personal uses for it so, as of right, now i have been using it to blend my undereye concealer because it is super soft! if you're looking for an all over blending brush for foundation... stick with the 187... this brush is too small.

hope your weekend is fantastic!!

once upon a saturday...

hello there dolls! today, after many failed attempts, my friend christy and i finally made it to a mac pro store and the fun ensued... it made for a lovely saturday afternoon. here are my new goodies!

i had to buy a palette to house all of my freshly depotted shadows... then my main goal was to find the perfect pink blush and i believe i have found it in the amazing pink swoon! i said "i want a pinky-just-pinched-my cheeks-color" and i got it. deelish!

i was in the mood for some new grey shadows to add to my collection so i picked up scene (muted blue-grey -satin), print (muted grey with shimmer - satin) and the classic carbon (black - matte). i also bought the 266 brush because really nothing can compare to it when it comes to applying fluidline... and that's that.

as soon as i saw true babe i knew i had to have it!! and i'm so in love with it. what an amazing bright pink to freshen up my look. it was one of those things i didn't know i wanted until i saw it! i can not wait to do some dollfaces of the day with my new friends and show you!! hope you're enjoying a rockin' weekend!!
