I’d like to win because i dont any colours in this category and would like to give pinks ago. I’ve also never had the courage to try or buy any brights like this so it would be nice to be able to try it. Twitter – rhianangharad

I already follow you on twitter under The78msj, I love all things M.A.C. it’s even my cellphone wallpaper, plus I think it’s an awesome color who doesn’t love anything associated with cupcakes and M.A.C.

I follow you on twitter under the name labellarosa, It’s pretty, I have no colors like it and i need just 1 more eyeshadow and my first MAC palatte will be filled.

I’d love to win! I only have 2 pink shadows, and they’re both poor quality so I don’t use them very often. I’d love to get into doing pink eyes, and this could be my opportunity!

I’m afraid I deleted my twitter, I didn’t get along with it at all 🙁

I would love to win because I have not owned a good peachy-pink shadow in ages. Used to have a nice one from Garden Botanika 10 yrs ago that i loved but it was discontinued. Haven’t found one that was comparable since. Dear Cupcake would be a great way for me to bring a memorable color combo back to my look book.

I would love to win this because, well.. I don’t own one MAC product :O Yes, just made a confession, ahaha! Love MAC but I just have no money. Also, the color is gorgeous!!

Karla Avatar

I need to own this color. I’m trying to save my makeup pennies and get some pro palettes to consolidate the things I already own, but Cupcake is calling to me. It’s the only thing in the SugarSweet Collection that appeals. Here I was, firmly entrenched in a nudes/neutrals phase, and Cupcake might be the thing to bust me out of it, just in time for Spring.

Jennifer Emerson Avatar

Well, first off, I love all things cupcake – heck, I even own a cupcake bakery! Not to mention, I am obsessed with all things pink! Plus, MAC eyeshadow is pretty much the best stuff out there – perfectly bright hues and ridiculously long wearing!!! I’d love this stuff!

Indigo Avatar

I would love to win this Dear Cupcake Eyeshadow because I love all things M.A.C., I am obsessed with baking, decorating, photographing, & eating cupcakes. Also, I have hot pink curly hair & I love making it stand out by wearing pink eyeshadow. This would be a wonderful opportunity to pull together all three of my loves into one simple object.

Carolyn Avatar

I would like to win this eyeshadow because it’s adorable and I love the name. I love MAC cosmetics and can’t always afford to buy them. I received one as a Christmas present two years ago and haven’t been able to buy one since. I’d love to have one again!

Alli Avatar

Oooo, I want this shade so bad. I am a huge MAC lover and a massive cupcake lover. However, being laid off and out of work I’ve had no splurges as of late. So, if I don’t win I will only be dreaming of this beautiful color!

Lindsey Avatar

I would like to win because I dont own any mac products because they’re not sold where I live and have always wanted some, and I think this color would look perfect on me

Sheila@Pieces Avatar

I absolutely love MAC eyeshadow…in fact, some might say I’m addicted to it. But I only haved browns/tans in my collection. So, I’d love to win this pink to give it a try, and what a wonderful spring color!!

Jamie F Avatar

I would like to win as it as been quite sometime since I have worn eyeshadow. Would love to give it a y again with this fabulous color.

Rochelle K Avatar

I want to win because that color is amazing! I loooove pink and I looooove shimmer so this is the perfect shadow for me!!!

I would love to try this color.

I was recently laid off from my job right around the time this line came out at MAC. I would love to buy it, but I don’t have any money right now. In the meantime (besides looking for a full-time job), I have been browsing the internet and realized that not only do I have a passion for makeup, but also for food (especially sweets!).

This is the first line in a while that I’ve liked from MAC, and my other favorites are sadly from their spring line a few years ago that I cannot repurchase.

I found out about this through “Cupcakes Take the Cake”, and it seems perfect for both of my loves (sweets/makeup) as well as the fact that it would brighten my day and maybe bring a change in my luck!

I have a cupcake business( Killion’s Kupcakes) and I love anything to do with cupcakes and cakes. I also use Mac makeup, which makes me look like a sweet cupcake rather than a stale piece of pie crust.

oatmealfairy Avatar

I want to win this because at the age of 23 I am actually becoming interested in makeup and I keep hearing that MAC is awesome. But cannot afford to try it on my unemployed ‘budget’. Also, I love cupcakes. I love them so much that I have been working up the nerve to try making them from scratch, buttercream and all.

Mostly, I want to win it because it’s pink. 😀

I’d love to win this for several reasons.

1) I love MAC – and this collection is delicious enough to eat but alas I’m a poor college student at the moment (and 33 years old!).
2) I love cupcakes – so much so that I’m in the planning stages for a supercute & sweet cupcake tattoo chest piece. Oh yeah, I’m serious.
3) My boyfriend of 8 years calls me both Dear and Cupcake.

I heart everything cupcake and MAC and this is a great way to combine my passions!!! Saw you on the cupcake blog and I am really enjoying your site!! Twitter name Sadiquap

cara Avatar

Because I love cupcakes like nobody’s business, and MAC is the best cosmetic line out there in my opinion — so combining both is the perfect creation in my head (as opposed to, say, making MAC into a cupcake and eating it).

Marie B Avatar

I deserve to win because I’m working on becoming a make-up artist/blogger and would love to add that to my slowly growing collection. Plus I would use it not just for myself but for any of the pratice faces I use now and in the near future. I would love to have that color!!!

Marie B Avatar

I would love to win Dear Cupcake because I’m currently striving to be a make-up artist and though money’s tight I would love to add that to my slowly growing collection. Plus the eyeshadow will be used on not just my face but my future clients as well.

I should win because I am willing to eat this eyeshadow to see if it truly is a cupcake (and not just PR lies), so you won’t have to.

Heather J Avatar

I would love to have this eyeshadow because:
1. Pink is my favorite color.
2. I am getting married the first week of August and want to wear it in my wedding.
3. I am serving cupcakes at my wedding instead of a cake and I thought it would be perfect to have pink cupcakes on my eyes and on my cake table.
