I LOVE all three of these Lip products!

Ok, so I gave in! Surprise, surprise! A Tartan Tale Collection!

I couldn't help it!  I knew that the Tartan Collection came out today (at Macy's), so I decided to drop by during lunch.  Like I mentioned, as soon as I had the collection in my hands, I just had to buy something!  I ended up buying three sets.  The Beauties Play it Cool Eyeshadows, the Vain & Glorious Lip bag, and the Violet my love lash and line kit.  I've had enough of those travel brushes.  I'd rather just buy the full size version that's made of better quality.

Here are some pics!


Here is the Violet My Love Lash & Line Kit:
Macroviolet Fluidline
Travel Liner Brush
Black Zoom Lash
Violet Pigment

Last, but not least...
the Beauties Play it Cool Eyeshadows


The colors are Silverware, hold my gaze, to the ball, altered state, magic moor, and heather belles :)



It's late, but I'll swatch these colors and post them tomorrow.  I need some good light anyways.
I'm SO glad I took some medicine today, Whew!!

MAC: A Tartan Tale

Am I the only one who is not so impressed with this holiday collection?  Not the products but the whole Scottish kilt theme?  I'm sure once I get my hands on something, I'll change my mind.  I always do :)

My First Post!

I know I'm talking to myself right now, but that's quite alright!  I'm really excited about creating this blog.  I began discovering makeup and beauty products since I was about seven years old.  Even though it wasn't my chosen career path, it's been in my life for as long as I can remember.  It's a wonderful creative outlet for me, especially since my career can be pretty stressful at times.

I hope you enjoy my ramblings on all things beauty!  I'll be posting my first review soon.

Some reviews in the works:
Smashbox Eye Wish Palette
Sigma Brushes
Hi-Fi Cosmetics
Glittersniffer Cosmetics
Orglamix Cosmetics
Concrete Minerals
