Glossybox October 2014 // UNBOXING



Today my Glossybox for the month of October arrived in the mail. I have to say I already forgot I have a 3 months Glossybox trial so I wondered who sent me something. This months Glossybox is called "Herbstzauber Edition" so it's about fall/autumn. The picture above shows how the box looked inside. 

MAC Prep + Prime Lip Base // REVIEW


Today I'm reviewing MAC's Prep+Prime Lip Base. 

I got mine from Douglas online for 16,95€ and the product holds 1.7g (0.05 oz). MAC's official description of the product is "A colour-free base to wear under lipstick. Adds light moisture, smoothes and refines the lips. Improves the appearance of applied lip products." - We'll see if that's actually true.

MAC Cosmetics: Lipstick Finishes

Today's post is going to be a guide to MAC's lipstick finishes.
There are 7 standart lipstick finishes (not including their special lipsticks like pro longwear, sheen supreme etc.) which are Matte, Satin, Amplified, Cremesheen, Lustre, Glaze and Frost. Before getting into more detail about each finish, I should probably mention that not all the lipsticks in their own finish will be the exact same. So f.e. not all cremesheens are going to be the very exact same formula as the cremesheens, they might vary slightly. But not let's get to the actual finishes!

Mac Cosmetics - Syrup vs. Plumful // COMPARISON



Today I'm coming at you with my newest MAC purchases, which are the lipsticks "Syrup" and "Plumful" in a Lustre finish. The lighter colour is called Syrup, the darker, more berry colour is called Plumful (but I'm pretty sure you've heard of both of these colours before since they are pretty much classic MAC fall lipsticks including Rebel of course).
