Haul Pt. 4 / MAC

Currently celebrating: Nan's 91st birthday!
Currently doing: working on purchase orders
Currently feeling: accomplished

I'm just calling this a MAC haul, because it's easier. I got four of the items at Off 5th Saks and the other four items at a CCO. All are either collection items or discontinued except for the MSF Natural. I'm pretty excited about my finds!

1. Fix+ Rose from the A Rose Romance Collection. This smells lovely! I got this to compare to the Evian spray that I have and see which I prefer. And it honestly smells like a true-to-life rose!
2. Tendertones! These are hard to come by and very highly rated among MAC addicts. I purchased Warm Smile, Take a Hint, and Tender Baby. They smell amazing. The minute I'm over this flu, I'm going to use these like crazy. I can already tell!
3. Starflash eyeshadows in Go and Mink & Sable. I don't have many dark greens, so I'm looking forward to playing with Mink & Sable! Starflash is my favorite eyeshadow formula. I picked up the only two colors I could find and giggled happily. Two pretty colors in my favorite formula...what's not to love about that?!
4. Earth to Earth Mineralize Blush. It's from the Grand Duo Collection. I doubt that I will use this often as a blush because of my fair skintone. I actually purchased this to use mainly as eyeshadows. It was just too beautiful to pass up.
5. Because of the great prices, I decided to go ahead and pick up a back-up of my favorite face powder. I use MSF Natural in Light. I've mentioned before that I am paler than a Cullen, but unfortunately I don't sparkle in the sun. ;)

I'll show more pictures of them out of their boxes when I show swatches and such. :) I honestly wish that Canada had Cosmetic Company Outlets here. I'll definitely be making another trip to one when I go down south for Christmas. This year MAC seemed to throw out collections left and right and I missed out on a few things. Such as on a few of the items above! CCOs are a great place to start at locating those items. If you're on the lookout for the Hello Kitty Collection, the Starflash Collection, etc., check out your nearest CCO!

I've been wanting to try one for awhile now. I was late getting on the MAC train and I missed when they had them available. I know this year they decided to have the tinted lip balm instead, but I really wanted to try the Tendertones. :) And they smell delicious!
