Despite the fact
that I’m getting sick & tired with the number of collections MAC have been
bringing out, I am quite pleased that a few re-promotions have been included
into the new collections. It’s always a pain when you hear that someone swears
by a MAC product only for them to say ‘Oh, but it’s Limited Edition’ . . . well
that’s just great! *huffs*
Adrienne from the
Sunday Girl was so excited about the MAC Stereo Rose Mineralise Skin Finish
and was so excited about its re-promotion in the Après Chic on twitter, that I
felt I had to get it just so I knew what all the hype was about.
While I’m not the biggest lover of
highlighters or shimmer blushes, MAC Stereo Rose is a Coral-Pink MSF with gold
and bronze veins that will work on darker skin as a warm highlight.
I’m not sure who exactly told me this tip (I bet it was
Adrienne) but I think it’s a worthwhile tip to know so I’m going to
share it with you. With Stereo Rose (or any Mineralize Skin Finishes) the veining
in each MSF is different and unique to that product but this means that the
veining can MAKE OR BREAK the product. The unique veins can mean that the
Stereo Rose looks amazing on one person but horrible on another so please,
please, please check what your MSF veins are like before you buy your product.
With mine (and
my sisters) I chose MSF’s with prominent golden/bronze veins, as I
knew we would be using this as a highlighter.
I'm really sorry that these pics on my cheeks are not the greatest but I'm still learning how to use my new DSLR camera and trust me when I say it's a 'step forward, two step backwards" type of progress.
This
is the last beauty product I can buy for a while (Damn
you Spending Ban!!!) and it’s not even going to be used til the summer
loool. If you have picked up the Stereo
Rose MSF or any MSF in general how has the veins affected how the product works
