Makeup Monday: New Mini MAC Palettes

Did you know MAC Cosmetics now carries mini palettes?  Where have I been? While I was waiting for news on my cracked iPhone 6 (a story for another day), I decided to do some window shopping at the boutique (HA! We all know that trip turned into real shopping).  To my surprise they now carry these pre-made mini palettes in Burgundy (below), Navy, Amber and Purple.  MAC shadows last a very long time, especially if you've slowed down on beating your face eve or if you're not a makeup artist.  I think these are perfect for someone like me.  The only thing that is not perfect is the price point...$40? My discount brought it down to $28 but still? Not when Makeup Forever's new artist palettes are going for $42 and offering a bit more product.  Not to mention MUFE's case is way cooler.  I do love the size. Now, when are they coming out with liquid lipsticks?? MAC?? Hello??

Makeup Mondays - Drugstore Haul

This post is an interesting one for me. I was never really a fan of drugstore makeup. I know how that sounds, but I'm a fan of department store shopping! I love that I can test and buy, but if I don't like, return.  Also, something about department store shopping makes me feel richer than I actually am...lol  For a few months now, though, I've been having a new love affair with the drugstore.  Namely the more inexpensive price tags. Whilst vacationing in NYC, I picked up a few recommendations I saw on Youtube and Instagram. Nothing in this post was over $5???? Unheard of.  FYI for all the New Yawkers - the Duane Reade by Century21 department store (downtown manhattan) is the ish for hard to find items.
