Hi Christine!!
Love your site by the way, it is awesome!! I too, am I total MAC addict/junkie!! LOL I thought about creating a beauty blog also, but I just do not have the time. I am asian, (korean) and would love to share how to’s with other asian girls out there who are afraid to wear eyeshadow. I am a beauty consultant (for another brand of course!) lol/free lance make-up artist part time and love it.
Anyway, I just wanted to add that I do love the MAC cosmetics, but their skincare is not too great if you have problematic, or acne prone skin. Jess mentioned that she had big pores, so I just wanted to say that microdermabrasion does indeed shrink the look of larger pores. It can be pricey, especially if you go to a dermatologist, but so many manufacturers have come out with do-it-yourself-at-home kits. I don’t know if people really realize what a difference a good exfoliant can make!
Anyway, I am so glad I stumbled across your site! I have a feeling I will be hanging out here a lot! LOL I was just at the MAC Pro store in Ceasar’s Palace here in Las Vegas. I just moved here recently and love being so close to all of the MAC locations! LOL Keep it up! Love your smokey eye! :D

Hi Christine,

In your opinion which do you like better deep truth or freshwater. Do you feel like they are different enough to have both? I will be wearing them with moons reflection.

Thank you!

Hey Christine,
Thanks for you well organized, fun and educational blog, I love it, but really quickly, have you ever thought of doing a substitution list for colors that might be discontinue? I noticed you started doing replacement colors of some of your tutorials on the colors you used, or other suggested e/s to use in your tutorial based on your skin tone. I know this might probably take some time but maybe “we” (your fans) can send in e/s color advice based on the color tutorial you done.
