The Basics -Sephora/Mac Haul.

Today was a bad day to be my Visa.

I wanted to treat myself and try out a few of the 'high end' products I have been hearing about but have never had the chance to try.

First stop, MAC Cosmetics.

I bought a Paint pot, these guys are great as primers! Your shadow will not move. I have 'Painterly' already, though I find with some looks it's a bit too dark. I decided to go with 'Soft Ochre' to brighten up my eyes and it will be nice to bring right up to get that clean line under my brows as well. It has a slight yellow tone to it, which fits with my skin tone fairly nicely, I'm super excited. I also bought a new brush to apply this product with, that I'll show further down this post.

I wanted to replace my brush collection, and I ended up going for a few Sephora collection brushes to finish off my 'essentials'.

*Classic Multitasker Brush #45*

(For a full coverage application of my new powder foundation you will see below)

This brush will give you great medium to full coverage with powdered foundations.

After hearing all this hype about the Anastasia DIPBROW Pomade I had to give it a try.

First Impression- Amazed! Definitely worth the hype.

It's texture is so smooth and soft for an easy application and you don't have to use too much! But with that said, surprisingly it still has great hold, you could sleep in this stuff and it would not come off. I purchased the shade 'blonde' but they have a large selection of colours.

Since I know this is a hot product right now, and I bet a lot of you are wondering how exactly you use this. I will attach a great brow tutorial youtube video featuring this product.

What are we missing? Thats it! and I'm super excited about this because I LOVE full coverage, and I have been so excited about all of Kat Von D's products since she first came out with them!

I purchased the shade 'Light 49'. Unfortunately this shade is not quite as golden as I need, I wish I has gotten a slightly lighter more 'yellow' shade, but what can you do. It blends fairly well though. With this product you can apply it over liquid foundation for extreme coverage for photoshoots and nights out, or alone for light to medium coverage. This is how I will most likely be using this product because of the shade oopsie. It does work very well for a super quick application, when you are flying out the door.

I think this was a very successful shopping trip. Super pleased with myself, you know that high you get after a good day shopping?

Yeah. Me too.

Have you guys tried the Kat Von D liquid foundation? What do you think? Let me know in the comments below!
