Recent Purchases!

So recently i made some purchases that I was really excited to get! I made my very first purchase from Sigma, and got a few MAC goodies as well. For the longest time I have been hearing how amazing Sigma's brushes were and I just had to get my hands on some to try them out. My first impression of them is that they're very soft! I am looking forward to using them on my face! Another exciting thing about my Sigma purchase was that I found a coupon that they are offering for the month of September where I get 10% off my purchase and a free gift with it! I was pretty dang excited when I opened my free gift and it was a short handle version of their most popular blending brush (E25. Pictured below) 

And lastly I purchased some things from MAC. I got a powder blush from the new MAC Me Over collection called "Eqilibrium" and then i also got another powder blush called "Prism" but this one is apart of MAC's permanent range. Enjoy the pics! 
 Everything I got...




 Large Angled Contour is great for contouring the face as well as applying blush to the cheekbones.



 Tapered Face brush is also a good brush  for contouring the face and applying blush like the F40.




 The Tapered Blending brush is amazing at blending out and diffusing color in the crease.



 The Blending Brush is great for applying color to and blending out color in the crease.


 Equilibrium is a pretty light bronzey brown color.




And then there's Prism. It's a nice mid-tone pink-brown.

Fall Runway

Wanna see what makeup trends are on the runway for Fall ??

My favorites are Dior with looks created by the amazing Pat McGrath and the looks created for Chanel. Dolce & Gabbana's fall makeup was incredibly gorgeous as well. Definitely my favorite out of all of them!
