MAC Salsa Rose Blusher!

Morning people! I thought I'd do a quick post on Mac Salsa Rose Blusher. I know it's not one of the most popular colours and being a pro product its one that people often overlook.

Salsa Rose

This has to be the brightest most pigmented blusher that i own. It a vivid matte pink with slight berry undertones which is gorgeous but needs a very light hand in application.
After a few failed attempts at wearing this (Think clown face) i eventually found the perfect brush to use with this.

Sigma Duo F15

I'm so pleased that i found a way to make this blusher work as its such a pretty colour when its not overloaded.
Now i just touch the powder with my brush and swirl it onto my cheeks and it applies really easily this way.

Salsa rose has a lot of depth to it and it seems to really brighten up my whole face. I also really like it on bare skin where it looks surprisingly natural.
Have you tried this before? I'd love to know your favourite blusher right now xx

New Mac haul Goodies with Swatches!

Wow my MAC order was delivered at lightening speed. I ordered yesterday and it arrived today. That's what i call great service. I was waiting for the new collections to be released before making this order as i was desperate to get my hands on the much loved Ever hip lipstick. Here's what i got:

Eye shadows in Lucky Green & Bows & Curtsy

 I tend to go for neutral browns and golds all the time so purchased a new empty Mac 15 palette with the intention of filling it with greens and blues. I have a few pressed pigments which i have added to this palette to stop it looking so empty and i will be depotting bows & curtsy to add to it as well.

Mineralised eyeshadow in Smoked Ruby

 Everhip Lipstick :) I've wanted this for so long its so pretty.

 Something special Cremeblend Blusher!

I've been wanting some brighter blushers in my collection so am really pleased with these two additions. I have placed them in a palette with a few other Mac Blushers and my mini Ben Nye cream blushers. I will be reaching for this palette a lot over the summer.

I can't wait to really use these products and I'm sure you will see them in a FOTD soon. Have you picked up anything from the new collections or do you plan on doing so?
