M.A.C. Semi Precious Collection

Considering the loads of Tumblr and blogs dedicated to Brazil-born bombshells(which is a lot, for those who don't know), it's unsurprising why most of them have an amazing career and made Brazil famous for their gorgeous, supermodel-potentials(Gisele Bundchen and Adriana Lima, anyone?)

On the other hand, M.A.C. is my favourite beauty brand. Their campaigns and collections are really simple or really weird, and it's hard to think that M.A.C is owned by Estée Lauder. One of their collaborations, Viva Glam, raises money for their AIDS fund, and they also had a collaborations called Bloggers' Obsession, a series of eye shadows and lip colours created by beauty bloggers.  

Inspired by the easy beauty of these bombshells, M.A.C. came up with a limited edition mineral makeup called Semi Precious. A series of lip colour, blushes, powders and brushes with colours that are probably the best for summer, but during winter, I like lightweight and moisture make up because of the very annoying weather of New York. You can either put yourself in hydrated lotion all the time during winter or deal with the fact that your skin is very, very dry, bleeding cracking lips, and that you look like a dried-up cattle flower. 

I like the lip colour, even though some of it looks like the kind you get in a beauty sample bag. But I had long learned not to judge a book by its cover(um, in this case, a lipstick by its colour? It rhymes...) and it probably would look very different on an actual model. The blush, made of baked minerals, enhances your non-existence checkbones into Gisele-like cheekbones. They even have limited edition brushes, just thought you ought to know, probably makes apply make up much more easier, for a newbie like me.

P.S.: I need to update this blog more. I'm extremely, extremely sorry, but hey, everyone deserves a break once in a while. Well I always say that, but I should put more effort into my blog.
