Know what’s an easy pick me up? A stop at Nordstrom to get some new makeup! That is all-kinds-of-fabulous-fun.
Here are a few of THE must-have MAC makeup items that give that glow and enhance your natural beauty.
First and foremost… you need this MAC Strobe Cream. You apply it over your moisturizer but before a primer. It adds an instant youthful glow. It’s so popular that it’s often sold out. People are that hooked.
Next lets chat foundation. Think of it as an even canvas for the rest of your makeup. Nothing heavy…nothing major. Just a light way to cover up those dark spots and blemishes. THIS is the best foundation, because you just tap on as little or as much as you like. Perfection.
FINALLY their bestselling (and, again, most times sold out) blush HERE in Warm Soul and mineralize skin finish. The blush gives you that natural flush of “yes, I just worked out” color while the skin finish gives a touch of glow to your complexion. Nothing major or white or bright to lighten you – the MAC skin finish looks like you are literally glowing from within.
And… a gorgeous lipstick (and please don’t forget a liner to keep it neat!) can complete a fab face, and the CreamSheen in Modesty along with the longwear lip pencil in Staunchy Stylish are essentials for your makeup bag.
What are your MAC must-have items?
I’m a total Mac makeup snob…and I just got the mineralize skin finish last month and I LOVE IT..wear it everyday as a blush! Next time, get Mac Whirl in the lipliner and lipstick…that is my goto signature color!
Ooooh – thanks, Chandler, for that shade tip! I will totally get that next time! 🙂
You have been intrigued about this strobe cream! Tell me more!

Its amazing. I think its a cult classic now… because it gives you that dewy glow under your makeup, so you look refreshed. Gives your complexion a glow… and you appear lit up from within. Obsessed.
True confession, I’ve only used MAC eye liner and need to expand my make up bag.
You totally do – they products are amazing. I’m always wanting more!
I love MAC! I’ll need to look into that strobe cream. I can’t remember the name of the powder foundation I’ve been using from them, but it’s one that they recommend for people with dry skin. I absolutely love it! I’ll dust it over a liquid foundation as a setting powder or use it with concealer on its own if I don’t feel the need for a lot of coverage. I’m kind of wondering how I went this long without it!
I know what you mean – I love MAC products! You need to check out that Strobe Cream. Thats MY product that I dont know how I lived without it for so long! My complexion looks instantly amazing! 😉
I love Mac!! I use their Zoom Lash Mascara – it’s my all time favorite! Great quality products – they always last forever!! The Strobe Cream I definitely want to try out – I’ve heard it’s amazing.
I’ve never bought MAC, but I always like it when I get my makeup done there. Their concealer is the bomb!

I love MAC and their makeup!! Especially their eye shadows, they last forever and never smudge! I use to wear MAC all the time when I was dancing and it would never fade away – love them!

I am a huge MAC makeup fan and these are some of my favorites!
I have actually never tried any MAC products before but I have heard good things about their lipsticks.

I’ll have to give the foundation a trial run. I have difficulty matching up a shade that actually covers my blemishes.
Quite a lovely array of MAC products, and they are typically such great quality it’s unreal. I recently got some items from the Ellie Goulding collection, then I went to MAC to get the liquid lipstick and matte pencils…and the list goes on and on when it comes to MAC. Someone needs to hold me back from the makeup! xx adaatude.com
Mac lipsticks are my favorite! I haven’t tried any of their other products yet.

I love that lipstick color, look like one I would actually feel comfortable wearing. I tend to stay away from bold lips. ha
