Since I expect no one here to know....YESTERDAY WAS MY BIRTHDAY!! And what better way to celebrate than to splurge on some MAC collections that came out the day of my special day!?
I purchased blushes from the Tres Cheek collection as well as from the Reel Sexy collection.
I was able to get my hands on all the things I had my eyes on except for the Reel Sexy lipstick :( sad day, but it's okay I'm sure there are tons of lipsticks that are similar to it. Anyway, I'm very
very excited about these blushes because lately I've just been developing a new found love for blushes.
So I purchased Modern Mandarin and Lovecloud from the Tres Cheek collection and Pink Cult from the Reel Sexy collection.

Interesting thing because this was the first time I had decided to pre-order anything from MAC and I ended up getting the last one in stock for ALL of these blushes. I couldn't believe how much hype these babies have gotten and I'm so glad I was ahead of the game.
Initially, I wanted to skip out on Modern Mandarin and purchase Immortal Flower, but Immortal Flower had absolutely NO color pay off. I'm between an NC25-NC30 and it did not show up on my skin whatsoever. I haven't had the chance to try any of them on my cheeks, but swatched on my hand....that color did just not workout for me. I wasn't expecting to purchase Pink Cult either, but the sales associate asked me if I wanted to take a look at the Reel Sexy collection so I just thought, "what the heck I'll give it a look". Of course, I ended up making another purchase.
The Tres Cheek collection blushes are all satin finishes and Pink Cult is a matte finish. I would love to give you guys swatches, but as some of you may or may not know....I have a weird thing about not being able to touch new makeup products haha but Temptalia has excellent swatches posted up on her site so I'd first suggest checking her's out.
I hope everyone has a fantastic week!!
