MAC /Target Hauls

I went to the MAC counter today to get a new foundation and concealer considering that Px is being discontinued. The SA had the same skintone as me so I finally believe that I've been shade matched correctly! She showed me some of her fave products and they turned out to be some of my faves, too.

I was shade matched with:

Studio Fix Fluid in NC20
Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation in C2
Select Cover-Up in NC20

I also treated myself to some color products. I'm really excited to try these out:

Dazzleglass in Money, Honey
Dazzleglass in Bare Necessity
Mineralize Eyeshadow Quad in Odd Bits
Matte Blush in The Perfect Cheek

At Target I got:

Pantene Brunette Expressions S & C - Used these yesterday morning and I can't believe how wonderful they are for less than $5 a bottle! It just goes to show that drugstore brands can be just as good. It all depends on your hair type. I love these better than my Bed Head products! The Bed Head ones don't detangle my hair at all and I feel that my hair looks duller with them. The sickly-sweet scents were starting to annoy me too. Pantene just smells clean, which is all I want my hair to smell like. And while stylists always recommend NOT using it, my best friend uses nothing but Pantene and her hair always looks great!

Pantene Ultra-Smoothing Balm - I ran out of Phytodefrisant and didn't feel like spending $30 for smoothing balm, so I decided to try this. It works just as good!

Pantene Anti-Humidity Hairspray - This also works great! New HGs.

St. Ives Oatmeal & Shea Butter Body Wash - I paid $2.94 for a huge bottle of this! It smells great and lathers a ton so what more do I need? I love Philosophy's 3-in-1's but $30 is really expensive for a bottle of body wash. I figure save money in these other areas and then I'll have more money for MAC.

Boots Expert Shine Control Lotion - This is the only product that I don't like. The consistency of it is great, but it seems to make my oily skin even oilier. I've got Studio Fix Powder now so I'm going to return this.

Nice haul, Marisa.
I LOVE The Perfect Cheek blush. It looks somewhat blah in the pan but gives such an healthy, natural color to cheeks. I'm a little bummed it's LE.
Enjoy everthing!

That blush sounds awesome! I wanttt

Ahhhh now I really want The Perfect cheek! I'd seen it but wasn't sure about it

You all need to check this blush out! I wish it wasn't LE either, Claudia! I wish they would make it perm. It's sooo pretty, and it goes with everything!

I think I am going to give the Boots lotion another chance before I return it. It was only $5.99 so it's no big deal, and I realized that not moisturizing my skin at night was making it way more oily throughout the day.

Nice haul, Marisa! You're making me wanna check out The Perfect Cheek blush, it sounds gorgeous! I wonder if my counter still has it in stock.

Nice haul! I tried the Pantene Brunette Expressions Shampoo and Conditioner recently as samples, and was really impressed with them, especially the shampoo.

Nice hauls Marisa. Those MAC goodies sounds nice.

MAC SFF is serious stuff! I don't wear mine along, one for being the wrong shade for me now and two it's really on the heavy side. I love mixing it with other foundation tho, it works well with the ones I've tried. Hopefully that and the SF powder won't break you out tho, I've heard people had problem with MAC's foundation. The SFF never gave me any problem.

Anyway, enjoy!!

Nice hauls! Hope the MAC face makeup continues to work for you now that Px is being discontinued.
