Baking Beauties by MAC Cosmetics

Hello Loves!

A lot of people have been requesting that I do swatches of the Paint Pots and Skin Finishes from the Baking Beauties collection. You ask, I give. However, since I am employed by MAC, I do have to follow guidelines. Which means, I can't release swatches until the collection it's self is released-I only have to wait for it to be released online. Seeing as the collection is now available online and will soon be available in store, here are the swatches!



Mooncake and Eclair are hands down my favorite Paint Pots. I'm not disappointed by any of the colors though, and some of them aren't really new either. I'm really excited for there to be a white Paint Pot, too! I see myself getting more use out of this than Soft Ochre and Bare Study.
I also love both of the Skin Finishes. It's kind of hard to actually swatch and take good photos of Skin Finishes, but this one came out the best. There's also a really cute design on them, so I was a little sad to ruin it! :c


I hope these swatches help you decide if you want to place an order or pick some up when they are released in-store!

If there's anything else you'd like swatched, please let me know. (:

As always,
stay beautiful

4/12/13 EOTD Details

Hello lovelies,

As promised, here are the details for my eyes of the day.

In the inner corners, I patted on Amber Lights by MAC. In the center of my lid is Anthrax by My Pretty Zombie. MPZ is a new company to me and I'm already in love. Anthrax quickly became one of my favorite shadows of all time.
Here's an individual swatch:


   
UGH! I'm so in love with it! As you can see, it's a gorgeous purple with a frosty green. I also received a few more colors from MPZ, that I'm really anxious to try out! Here's their website!
Moving on, in the crease I have Club from MAC which blends so nicely with Anthrax due to the frost green colors. I didn't want to go too over the top because my activities for the night weren't very fancy; but like always, I added some lashes from Madame Madeline from the Bullseye collection. This style is called Pixie. You can also get 11% off your order with the code MUA11. Who doesn't like saving money?!

On a side note, I went in to get a magnifying mirror, and I walked out with a really, really nice camera instead. YouTube, here I come!


Expect more posts soon~

XOXO, 
Ally

Hello!

There will be a lot of changes coming your way soon.
Not only did I start my own freelance business, I've also started my own website Elite Makeup Artistry , a Facebook , and Youtube!! I'm going to be busier than before, but this is definitely something that I want to put time into.

With that being said, please follow me on all of these accounts! I have a lot of reviews, tutorials, and tips to release here shortly.

I promise to be worth your time. :p

XOXO,

Welcome!

Hello everyone!
How exciting - I'm starting up a new blog! (yay!)
It's been a very, very long time since I've blogged/vlogged and I've decided to start up again.


Some background info on the one they call "Ally"

My name is Allison (Ally), I'm 22 and I live in Ohio.
As a child, I wanted to be a makeup artist and it's a goal I never gave up on.
A few months back I began working at MAC which has always been my dream job.
I've learned a lot along the way and I'm still learning!
Nothing would make me happier than to pass that knowledge on to my followers, subscribers, friends, family, etc. Thus the blog. I tend to post about products (makeup, hair, fashion, etc) I love, products I don't love, tips, tricks, and the occasional rant about whatever is on my crazy mind.

So let's get to know eachother~

XOXO,
Ally
