My M.A.C Virginity...has been broken!

Hey ladies! My first ever MAC purchase came the other day. I only picked up a lipstick and a concealer. Ohhh how I lusted after more, but I figured I should be reasonable, seeing as it's almost Christmas. :D

I picked up the Studio Finish Concealer in NW15 and a lipstick in Shy Girl. It also came with a free sample of the eye makeup remover which I'm excited to try!

Studio Finish Concealer in NW15:

Seeing as my beloved No7 concealer is basically gone, I decided to try out one from M.A.C! While I find the No7 concealer to be amazing, it doesn't always cover my spots/acne scars THAT well, and I swear I used it up in like...a month? Haha. I used this yesterday and today, and I'm quite happy. Not positive yet if it's that much better than the No7 one, but I'll have to see! I did notice though, that because the No7 concealer is so creamy, I end up using quite a lot of it. But since this one is a bit harder, I found myself using less, so I like that!

Concealer applied to my face. I'm pretty impressed, but at the same time, it's not exactly flawless, is it? But then again, since I can't be arsed with proper foundation (mineral only please!), that's kind of my own fault, tehe.

Cremesheen Lipstick in Shy Girl:

My friend, who was very helpful in me picking out these products, suggested I get Snob. While I did like the look of it, I already have a lot of pink lippys, and while searching, I found this one! People call it the perfect nude, and I have to agree, it's gorgeous!

Another shot of it on me lips:

One of my first thoughts when I tried on this lipstick was that it was similar to my Natural Collection lipstick in Rose Petal. As you can see from the swatches, Rose Petal is far more of a light pink color than Shy Girl. It also looks a lot more POW on your lips, while Shy Girl is more understated. BUT, I was right about my second assumption, that it would be a perfect match for Revlon's Lipgloss in Nude Lustre. On the far right I've also included a swatch of the concealer, just incase anyone was curious!

Natural Collection Lipstick in Rose Petal and M.A.C Shy Girl, not quite dupes, haha.

M.A.C Shy Girl and Revlon Lipgloss in Nude Lustre, a match made in heaven. ;)

And finally, a photo of the eye makeup remover! When I use it I'll make sure I do a review post. I still need to try my sample of the Bare Minerals primer, so maybe I'll do a post together.

That's all, folks! I'm really happy with my purchases and look forward to soon becoming a M.A.C addict. Any advice on what to get next? ;)
