Makeup Haul: NARS, Makeup Forever, e.l.f. & MAC

Hey beauties! I have missed you guys so much! Sorry for the longer gaps in between posts, I've had a lot going on but I have not forgotten about you all. To make up for my absence I have a haul for you all! I hope you enjoy :)

MAKEUP FOREVER PRO FINISH POWDER $36

 I don't own ANY products from Makeup Forever, while I worked at Sephora I played around with the line but I never committed to buying anything. I am out of my MAC Studio Fix Powder so I wanted to try something new. I tried it at the store and I love it. It gives way better coverage than many other powders and it is a very matte finish. It's well worth the price. 

NARS BLUSH IN "LIBERTE" $28

*blush whore alert* I haven't bought anything from NARS in a long time. I've wanted this blush for awhile and I finally bought it. It's the perfect peach and I just love it. NARS just can't go wrong with their blushes.

NARS BRONZER IN "CASINO" $33

 This is another product I've had my eye one for awhile. Casino is the perfect bronzer for the brown girls and a great contour color for my paler ladies. I use it over my foundation as a powder and it looks great. 

MAC STUDIO FIX FOUNDATION $27
I needed a new foundation so I figured why not try this one? I like it but surprisingly not as much as my Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation. 

MAC PREP + PRIME REFINED ZONE $21
 This thing is so tiny but so worth it. I have combination skin, so my T-Zone gets oily throughout the day. Since I've been using this stuff I have seen a difference. I ordered the MAC Oil Control lotion too to put with this, summer is right around the corner and no one wants to be dripping foundation!

e.l.f. CONTOUR AND BLUSH DUO IN "ANTIGUA" $8

 There has been a lot of hype surrounding this product and I must say I like it. It is NOT a dupe for NARS so whoever keeps spreading that lie needs to quit! But for $8 bucks it's nice. NW45 and below will get the best use out of this. I ordered another one so once that one comes in I'll do a full in depth review.

I hope you guys enjoyed my haul! Next up I will be doing a review on MAC Candy Yum Yum so stay tuned, thanks for reading. -Ash

  1. ahhh I really really want to try the MUFE powder. Does it oxidize on you?? My fave MAC foundation is Matchmaster, have you tried that one?

  2. Great review. I have started using some elf products myself. I also use MaryKay concealer and Bobby Brown foundation. I tried Maybelline Dream Matte this winter when I ra out of Bobby Brown and couldnt get to Nordstroms to get anymore. And I was surprised it worked so well!!!

  4. Great haul! Please let me know if the Mac oil control lotion works. I've been looking for something to stop my forehead from getting shiny. Nothing I try ever works!
