Unable to find a shade that matches me
I originally visited Nordstrom to try several different MAC products and before finding my favorite foundation by Revlon I had several rendezvous with the Mac counter .I had found a product in the drugstore by Jane cosmetics that I liked and it was a concealer in a tube much like this one (pictured above). It was only $3.79 and it was great but none of the stores consistantly kept it in stock so a friend recomended I try this one by Mac. Althought the two are packaged similarly and appear to be the same product the similarity ends there. First off I didn't like the way the MAC salesgirl kept pestering me when I wanted to test the products.( I realize that this is not the fault of the product ) I'd go to try a shade and she'd direct me to the one she thought best. I ended up listening to her and purchased a very light shade took it home tried it and looked like casper! I went back and was allowed to exchange this one for a different shade. I went with the next shade up and took it home. Strangely this one has a terrible pink hue to it that made my face a sickly pink orange. Instead of returning this one I decided to buy another. I didnt want to become the annoying disatisfied customer that never went away (although looking back now I should have returned it and and demanded my money back instead of another exchange). Everytime I tried it in the store lighting it looked so much better than it did when I got home. I finally got a third and it was so yellow! I returned it and tried one last color that seemed the best of the bunch although that's not really saying a hell of a lot. I was very tired of this cycle of sampling buying an returning. I guess this product did not suit me but the texture itself was fine. Had the color matched me better I would have liked it. It is kind of expensive though. It is only 10 ml (.33 ounces) per tube for $15. My Jane concealer that I liked was also 10 ml but only $3.79 and worked as well if not better.
