Mini MAC Haul

I was very naughty in the days running up to Christmas, and I purchased a couple MAC products. I brought a bottle of MAC brush cleanser, (first used to clean my real techniques face brush whch was, and I'm sorry to admit it, FULL of make up!) and some new concealer. 

I'm limiting myself to a couple items a payday because, let's be honest, MAC is not by far the cheapest make up brand around. I use a mixture of cheaper make up from brands such as Natural Collection, Collection and Rimmel, and then some other brands such as Soap and Glory and Benefit. So it's nice to throw some high end make up into the mixture. 

After a long deliberation I went for the Studio Finish Concealer in NC15. I chose this product as I had seen a lot of different bloggers and youtube gurus rave about how good this concealer was. What finally swayed me was watching a video from 'ALLthingsgirlybyISSY' and she was saying about how she could never find a concealer that actually covered her dark under eye circles and recently I've had the same issue. Working late nights and early starts do nothing for your skin. My usual Collection concealer just wasn't making the cut anymore for camouflaging how tired I really looked. 

The packaging is small and simple. I love the simple black boxes all MAC products come in. I kept it in the box to start, but then took it out and I am keeping the box for long haul travelling. The actual container is a small black circular container with a flip lid. The concealer is brilliant. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin and that's jut a dream for me. This coverage is brilliant, I think with the right application it could cover a small tattoo. The only thing I don't like about it is that it can slide on your skin as it is a cream, without any setting spray or powder. 

I'm currently eyeing up a lipstick in the shade 'Cockney' which is a true red lipstick with some blue undertones. I've read up a lot about it and it really appeals to me. Have fun MAC shopping!
