Mac Must Have Beginner Friendly Products

Hello beautiful girls, I decided to compile a list of my favorite Mac products that I've purchased several times. The idea behind this post is that going to any department store counter can be a bit overwhelming. Hopefully, this post can help someone become a tad bit familiar with Mac's products. The items that will be discussed are products that I love and use on a daily basis.

1. Mac Matchmaster SPF 15 Foundation: I have been using this liquid foundation for years and I absolutely love it. First a liquid foundation is best for me because it provides a full coverage. I suffer from dark circles and spots so I need a liquid to even out my completion.

2. Mac Mineralize Skin-finish Powder: Whenever you are applying a liquid foundation or concealer its always essential to set it with a powder to lock in the liquid.  I absolutely love the mineralize skin-finish although it is a newbie that was recently added to my routine it was definitely the missing piece to the puzzle.

3. Mac Pro-Longwear Concealer: If you don't purchase anything else on this list and if you are searching for the perfect concealer please try this product. Concealers are used to cover up dark spots or blemishes to even out your complexion. I also use it to disguise my under eye circles.

4. Mac Prep+Prime: If you think of applying make-up like painting you will know that a primer is a must. I happen to love Mac's primer because it provides a luminous glow and assists with providing a base for your make-up to glide on perfectly.

5. Mac Pro long-wear paint pot: I use the paint pot as a primer for my eyeshadows it provides a base for your eyeshadows to prevent creasing and to allow the colors to pop and appear more vibrant.

6. Mac Fix+: I use this liquid as a setting spray it can be applied before or after your apply make-up. I also use this to wet my eyeshadows.

7.  Mac 217 Blending Brushes: I purchased this brush years ago and still use it everyday. It is the perfect blending brush to blend out those harsh eyeshadow lines.

8. Mac 239 Eyeshadow Brush:  Perfect brush to add to your starter collection to apply eyeshadows/

9. Mac Prep+Prime Highlighter Pencil: If you are into highlighting and contouring this pencil is great to highlight those areas.

10. Mac Powder Blush in Blunt: I use this sometimes to contour with but I have a great e.l.f dupe for this product stay tune for my drugstore must haves.

11. Mac Dolly Mix Sheertone Blush: A beautiful berry-pinkish blush.

Mac Cosmetics Must Have Lipsticks: Beginners Guide

    I remember my first purchase from the Mac counter. At that time I knew very little about the in's and out's of the make-up industry and purchased a simple eyeshadow. As I discovered the Youtube beauty community I quickly transformed to sort of a expert about make-up products. Therefore, my make-up collection began to grow. At that time, I wasn't really into lipsticks however, I loved lip glosses but as time went by I slowly for surely began to develop a love for lipstick. As a result, I wanted to share a list of my favorite Mac lipsticks. 

1. Snob: This pretty and soft pink is a must have it's very feminine and girly and is considered a "satin" finish meaning it has some moisture and applies very easy. 

Also try: Angel



2. RiRi Woo: I absolutely love this color. RiRi Woo is a signature red that debut with Rihanna's first Mac collection. The red is vibrant and looks great on all skin colors. The finish is a "retro matte" which is a very dry finish this color has no gloss whatsoever which gives you a beautiful matte or flat finish. 

Also try: Ruby Woo




3. Violetta : Violetta is a beautiful vibrant purple that was initially a Mac Pro Color but Mac decided to add it to the website for everyone to purchase. The finish is "amplified" which is a creamy vibrant finish.

4. Up the Amp: This color is a softer more feminine purple and looks great on all skin colors. The finish is "amplified" and it applies on very creamy.

5. Girl About Town: A vibrant fuchsia pink that's isn't too bright but not too soft. The finish is "amplified" as well.

6. Cyber: A dark berry color which gives the perfect "vampy" look for fall and winter. The finish is "satin".

7. Candy Yum Yum: If you are into vibrant bright pinks. This is your color. Candy Yum Yum is a very bright and intense pink the finish is "matte" which is a very dry and flat finish.

8. Morange: This color looks great on most skin colors but it looks very good on women of color. Morange is a vibrant orange very intense and perfect for summer. The finish is "amplified". 

9. Blankety: The perfect nude color

10. Rebel: I struggled with this last one because there are so many great lipsticks but I choose Rebel. The name describes it very well. The color is a dark plum, it's deep and rich and also gives a soft vampy look which is perfect for fall and winter.
