Day in Beauty, Vol. 12: The MAC Zac Posen Collection, ChocStars, and a Belated Blog Birthday - Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hey, baby, you're a ChocStar!
Yep, you read that correctly — a ChocStar, which is somewhat dissimilar than a stone star.
How funny are these chocolate bars, though? (Please note the tabbies.) I found them at a fun processed store called SweetE Organic in my sometime stomping grounds in Manufacturing plant Valley. It'southward just a picayune shop, simply they have every square inch filled with interesting speciality candies — like organic chocolates, gluten-complimentary gummies, vegan candy, sugar-gratuitous candies, dairy-free candies, So MANY CANDIES!
Add it to your list of dessert-related things to do in Southern Marin before or after hiking Mt. Tam, sightseeing in Sausalito or shopping in Corte Madera or Mill Valley. Yous could have dejeuner at Pizza Antica (OOH! Effort i of their chopped salads with a piadini.), then swing by SweetE Organic for dessert.
It's correct next to a wonderful store called The Spanish Table, where I could literally spend hours looking at olives, vino, recipe books, maps and bars of Spanish chocolate.
I walked in yesterday while El Hub and I were out and about. With Infant Girl coming very, very soon, we've been trying to stay close to home and exist ready to hop on the motorway to the hospital in San Francisco, buuut I was starting to get a trivial stir crazy, so I had to get out of the house.
Can't assist it. I'm antsy!
MAC Zac Posen
And the shopping yesterday was exactly what I needed. It was likewise a perfect excuse to article of clothing makeup. 🙂 I busted out the new MAC Zac Posen collection (available at present online and coming to stores and counters Feb. 25 through March 24) and did a look like to what I'm wearing today — matte black winged liner; soft purple, plum and taupe lids; warm bronzed cheeks; and hot pink matte lips.
I was secretly hoping the collection would allow me to achieve Zac's signature heart roll from Project Rails, but alas…information technology did not.
Information technology's really, actually hard to look as tired and completely over it as Zac does when he's sitting in the judge's chair, LOL!
Forth with the provocative packaging, which reminds me a fiddling of MAC Brook Shields part deux, with all the matte gray, I like the mix of warm and cool shades. With its plums and taupes, the eye palette is quite absurd toned, while the bronzer and some of the lip colors (like the orangish and the nude) are surprisingly warm.
Every bit for pare, information technology gets the matte treatement, and the optics get the extra oomph of black liner.
For the tape, there are quite a few re-promotes in the collection (the liner, the mascara, the face pulverization and Phloof eyeshadow), and even though I like this kind of classic, refined expect with black liner and vintage orangish and hot pink lipsticks, I don't know if I'd kicking downwards doors for these particular products… Nothing is really standing out to me. I dig the bronzer and lipsticks, but they remind me of things I've seen over at MAC.
Happy belated birthday!!!
In other news, gauge which makeup blog quietly turned ix years sometime last Saturday. 🙂
Sometimes I can't even believe it. Who knew that writing this little review of the Barbie Honey'due south MAC haul I got at Nordstrom all those years ago would pb to nine years and 11,000 beauty posts? I tin't believe I'm notwithstanding at it nine years after…
The blog has been Past FAR the longest projection I've ever worked on, and it's been an amazing ride. Thank you for hanging out with me. Who knows? Mayhap next yr we'll make information technology to 10. Fingers and toes crossed!
How's your Mon coming along?
