i love the msf in refined! its the only one i have and ive been dieing to get a msf natural but the prices just arent working with me right now haha great vid! xo Roxy
Hi, Gina! Thanks to you, I am going to start using mac, however I am beginner for this brand. Considering the prices, it would be great If you could just pick/recommend 1 blush, 1 lipstick, 2 eyeshadows, and 1 lipgloss from MAC; It would really help me out. I am just about your same skin tone, but I have brown eyes/dark brown hair if that helps your recommendation at all.
Love your nail polish!! Thanks so much for not including limited editions! I get so bummed out when people do reviews on those and I can't find them anymore =/
when you wash it, squeeze the bristles together and let them dry that way, don't touch them at all while drying... they usually get back to being dense..
Hi Gina, I just ordered Violetta on the regular Mac site. It is a Pro color but it is offered under one of the new Trend A/W collection for a short time only. I think you might like it since you love Up the Amp,
what's the difference between using a puffy that you can wash and sanitize than a powder brush that you have to wash and sanitize? Also, they can be disposable.
i was thinking about getting a hilight like the MAC soft and gentle, but i was wondering if it goes on too glittery or shimmery? because i wanted more of a sheen/ subtle glow.
Hi, cud u recommend some MAC eyeshadows to me. i have dark brown eyes, black hair and olive skin. i really like the look of beautiful iris - will that be too light on me? wot do u think?
WEll! Beautiful iris is great for a lid color. The contrast with your darker skin will make it pop! For a crease color get something like graphology :)
i guess the only way i will know the joy of a over $50 brush is if you explaine what is like when you use it lol.. Gina did you know one of sephora makeup artist and the makeup artist on the tv show cover shot is in on YouTube her name is Shawnelle Prestidge she has excellent vids on here,, (so extremely sensible).. no crazy stuff,, she talks more like she is teaching you not talking to you,,, i really love her tips x Shelly
I subscribed to her.. Sounds promising! It's hard to explain how something is without demonstrating it, too, which isn't what the video was about. It was just to touch on a few MAC favorites. I did do a review on it months back, but hopefully if there's enough interest I'll do a unique video on it. xoxo!
Why o why haven't I put funtabulous over up the amp? I'm so slow Gina!
I just bought the 168. Would you tell me do you contour every day and what you use?
I had a couple mac orders come in last week and one new thing to me is beautiful iris. Scandalous beauty talks about what a great es it is and I have to say I agree! It's simply gorgeous!
Now I've added soft & gentle & pink freeze to my want list.
Have you tried anything from the Euristrocrats 2? What beautiful colors!
Color crafted is going to rock my world. I'm going to say it now. I'm not buying any. ARgh!
Thanks for the contouring info. I think my problem right now is I'm too dark. I've tried my chanel bronzer universal and stila bronzer. You can't see a thing. Then I remembered I had Nars Casino and that one seems to work a bit better, but still not dark enough. When I go to mac I'll have to ask the MA what color would work for me.
Thanks for putting up with me and my crazy questions!
Hi Gina! Just wanted to let everyone know that even though the 138 is pricey, it is totally worth it. I would never have considered buying it if I had ot seen Gossmakeupartists' video. That brush is my favourite, I use it for foundation, contouring, blush, powder, anything but eyeshadow! :) It is love!
I wonder if I should get the MSF natural...I was matched to Light Medium as well. What color do you use in studio fix fluid foundation btw? :) Thanks for the video
For the MAC lip glosses they tend to run out faster and a lot of the product sticks to the side. So, I usually microwave a mug full of water for like 1 minute and I stick my lipgloss in the warm water (right side up) and all the product on the side of the container falls to the bottom....and you have more product to last for a while. I do that also for my mascaras too.
Gina, this has nothing to do with your video, sorry...... I find myself watching every single one of your videos just to see all the different tops you own.LOL! You never wear the same one twice! Would love to see your whole wardrobe...LOL :D
wow..very pricey.lol..i was planning to tell my aunt to buy me one of the 138..well changed my mind...very expensive.lol..any substitutions for the 138?..maybe from sephora??
everyone raves about msf natural and I really wnna love it also but I feel that the natural finish of it makes me look even more oily. what can I use instead in the summer or as a summer foundation routine?
wow.. this powder makes you feel more oily? I have complete opposite worries of it mattifying me too much. Have you tried their prep and prime finishing translucent powder?
you really love purple don't you ;) purple looks great on brunettes. I'm currently blonde and can't pull off purple l/s or blush :( but I wanna go light brown. Which colors do you think are most flattering for light brown hair?
How do you use Love Rock?What brushes do you use and do you use it to contour or add a blush?I bought it cause it seems like such a beautiful product but I just can't get application right :( Either too much pink (clown face :o( ) or just random shimmer!x
I use from my 138 to my cheapy ELF studio complexion brush that I love. With application I take any type of tapered brush and only tap it, not swipe because it's so pigmented if you do more than that your face will get too much color. xoxo!
Great video!!! I love to see favorites!!! The only thing I own from your favorites is the on a mission blush, which is FABULOUS!! But I'm going shopping tomorrow with my mom.... so I might have to try out another of your favorites... thanx for the ideas!!! ;-)
The old MSF naturals used to come with shimmer that's similar to the soft and gentle as a duo. You can still get them sometimes at CCOs so wasn't sure. xoxo!
depends on which one you get. the lighter ones you use as a highlighter over your blush to make it more glowing. Others are dark and basically shimmery(not glittery) blushes
I have the Studio Finish Concealer and I can't use it under my eyes, it gets all dry and cakey but like you said it is good to hide something like a blemish.
Sorry I meant else
