Itty Bitty Haul

I think we all now know that the first Thursday of every month (well at least in the UK) marks the release of a new MAC collection of in this months case, three.

1) Graphic Garden
2) Love that Look
3) Baby Bloom

Two collections from which I made purchases.




From Baby Bloom I picked up the Studio Moisture Tint in Medium. Although you can argue that it may be the wrong time of year to release a tinted moisturiser, there are no doubt people who wear one all year round not only for the summer months. My purchase was purely because i'm yet to go on my holiday and will like a lighter coverage. It also has SPF 15 so for those who are like myself and are not completely comfortable with sunbathing with zero makeup you get minimal coverage with a little bit of protection. I tested this moisturiser at the weekend. It was refreshing to say the least and it lasted extremely well.




My last purchase were from Love that Look. I picked up two shadows in Glamour Check and Style Snob. I skipped the Starflash shadows when they were originally released last year but decided to give them a chance this time around. Glamour Check is a brown/red with gold pearl. Style Snob is a light brown with purple undertone, to me it looks similar to Satin Taupe also by MAC.

What did you pick up from these collections? Did I miss any essentials?

    I'm obsessed with Style Snob eyeshadow. Paired with Satin Taupe is a really pretty combo!

    You should also pick up smoke and diamonds! I am obsessed with it at the moment. It is a smokey silvery taupe color. I guess it is sort of similar to satin taupe as well though. I like to pair them together!

    @Beth Catchpole I haven't tried the Laura Mercier TM but the one by MAC has a really nice coverage and I have an acne scar, it didn't cover it completely but it helped disguise it. Its also cheaper :) Hopes this helps.
