MAC Shop MAC Haul.

Hello Beauties! Here I am with another haul from MAC (what can I say, I love MAC). This haul is from the Shop MAC collection which was released in stores on February 9th, the Cook MAC and Vera collections were also released on that day as well. Nothing from those collections really caught my eye but if I was able I probably would have got everything from the Shop MAC collection, maybe it's because I'm a shopper? LOL! Well here's what I got, on to the haul....


I think the outer packaging is really cute! Which is bad because I'm probably going to keep the boxes for a while (such a hoarder).

Collective Makeup Haul

Hello Beauties! I have a collective haul of some things I purchased during January from Sephora, MAC, CVS, Stila and Nordstrom. I knew I was taking part in a $50 a month spending challenge this month so I wanted to knock off a few things off my wish list and I also got a great deal on some stuff. At the end of this month I will show you guys how well (or how bad) I did with this challenge. On to the haul, enjoy! 



The goodies


Sephora
This was totally an impulse buy, I don't do these too often though. I'm all for bright colors, I wanted this from the 1st time I seen it in a haul video. I knew I would not be able to leave this in the store once I seen it.

Kat Von D True Romance Eyeshadow Palette- Mi Vida Loca
 I'll have to do a seperate post with more pictures of the palette and swatches.

Kat Von D Everlasting Love Liquid Lipstick - Backtage Bambi



MAC
Usually in-between collections I take the time to get things from the permanent line I need/want.
Prep + Prime Transparent Finishing Powder/Pressed
Painterly Paint Pot (favorite eyeshadow base)
Powder Blush Pan Refill - Salsarose, Peachtwist (finally finished my 1st MAC blush palette)
Pro Longwear Lip Pencil - Kiss Me Quick

#222 Brush - I purchased this from the Nordstrom website, I wanted this brush for a really long time and when I got word that it was being discontinued I got it while I still had the chance. It's no longer on the MAC website.


Stila Love At 1st Blush Palette


Milani
So as you may know at select Milani Cosmetics item are 75% off. I've had my eyes on those blushes for quite some time now and I'm so glad I waited. I got everything in the picture for around $15 and that is such a good deal.

Milani Color Perfect Lipstick - Mandarina
Milani Color Perfect Lipstick - Berry Rich
Milani Minerals Blush - Luminous
Milani Minerals Blush - Sweet Rose
Milani Minerals Blush - Sunset Beach
Milani Minerals Blush - Mai Tai
