    Hey just a tip for the Mac palette without the insert you can also buy sticky circle magnets and pop them on the back of pans from other brands or pans that you’ve depotted from singles with no magnet!

    Knowing that my suggestion for Double Gleam would be put on trial in this video had me so nervous 😅😅😅 SO PLEASED YOU LOVED IT!! And you’re exactly right - it has what I call a glossy finish where it doesn’t look as powdery as other powder highlights but is still very shiny 🥰 looked stunning on you xx

    The way I use face and body is to rub it between my hands until it starts to get tacky, almost gives resistance, then use my hands to blend it onto my face. That for some reason gives more coverage. I also love it to add to a matte foundation to make it a little more glowy.

    • @hr8290
      @hr8290 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Rhe coverage is more than way because you reduce some of the water content. It is so watery that using a brush or sponge directly will soak up a good portion and sheer it out. I love this foundation for that reason it makes it very customizable.

    Love MAC. It’s a great brand that doesn’t get enough love on YT.
    Modesty is my favourite lipstick of all. Cream In Your Coffee is another Cremesheen next to Modesty for a slightly browner pink. Moisturizing with a nice shine straight from the bullet.
    Modesty lipstick is also a great cream blush blended into damp Face & Body. It’s not the longest lasting but it will do in a pinch.
    Faux is a nude pink satin & Velvet Teddy is a matte brownish peach pink that I put gloss on top for extra moisture and shine.
    Love the lip liners. My favourite is Boldly Bare & I like Dervish but it’s a lot drier formula than the Boldly Bare. I’ve found a similar shade to Dervish in Milani #03 Nude. It’s a creamier formula but equally good performance.
    Face & Body is an HG for me. It looks lovely on my 63 year old aging dry combo skin but it is sheer- why I love it & others may not. If I need more coverage my next favourite can be dusted on top. Or I dot some IT Bye Bye Under Eye concealer onto it & blend.
    Studio Fix powder foundation is my pick to get out the door fast. It fits in a carry on without taking up room in the TSA liquid allowance bag. Works in summer heat and humidity and also as a portable nose touch up for my purse
    I think Mac eyeshadow is amazing. I’ve invested in a number of favourites which form my personal palette. I love the performance but also that I can buy refills of more used shades easily and cheaply.
    Favourite 6 eyeshadows:
    Charcoal Brown- this one is my eyebrows, eyeliner including tightlining AND it deepens an outer corner plus sheers out in the crease.
    Vanilla: inner corner highlight. Lightens up stuff from other palettes that’s too dark. Which is often. I’m a NW15 pale.
    Brule is my skin colour so it’s my base shade. Matte neutral. Blanc Type is a close second.
    Wedge is my favourite crease shade. Malt & Kid are close behind in that category.
    Naked Lunch adds a satiny pink champagne glow on my lids without accentuating my wrinkles. All That Glitters is pretty but skews orange on me so I prefer NL.
    Grain is a lovely all over one & done satiny shadow. If I don’t have time to fiddle around this always looks like I blended several close shades on my lids.
    If I could only have 2 they’d be Grain & Charcoal Brown. Can’t live without those 2.
    Lip Glass isn’t my favourite lipgloss of all time, I tried Oyster Girl for a topper, and I much prefer any drugstore lipgloss over Lip Glass.
    Too sticky and stiff. Applying Oyster Girl practically peeled my lipstick off underneath. The shimmer disappears and there’s no lasting moisture either. Left me wondering what was the point with Lip Glass. Rimmel’s Blushing Belgrave beat it all hollow.
    I prefer Clinique High Impact mascara to any other that I’ve tried including Mac Extreme Dimension. That Mac ED is more of a defining mascara and quite nice but I prefer the Clinique.

    My favorite Mac product of all time is the Mac Mineralize Moisture Foundation. It’s the perfect winter foundation for dry skin. Lightweight and doesn’t cling to spots. It was the first high end foundation I ever tried and I keep repurchasing years later!
    Great video!

  • @tanhome7
    @tanhome7 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I swear by MAC lip liners and have for close to 20 yrs now. I prefer the pencil that you have to sharpen because they don’t move around my lip lines due to being overly creamy. Some shades are better than others but I can’t count how many Soar ones I’ve been through and currently I’m really into Boldy Bare and Spice. Perfect for fall! I will always rank MAC very high in terms of their lipsticks and single eyeshadows!! The eyeshadows are more forgiving on mature eyelids because of the formulas they have. Their blushes are also wonderful. Good to hear/see a video on MAC again.

  • @therealchristinedaee
    @therealchristinedaee 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jess! I have vintage selection!!!! So how I work it is by either a flat shader or a concealer type brush application on the lid or fingertip application on the lid. I try not to over blend it. Then I throw a neutral light brown (whatever you please), and blend the crease. It works for me. Make sure you put enough on your eyelids, and don’t overblend vintage selection. It’s a wonderful color on my fair skin and brown eyes!

    @Sarah-Bouma16 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Okay I've been back and forth on the face and body for like a year now (there's so much in the dang full size I have no choice but to use it up).. So here's what I've decided is the best application imo: use a glowy primer like the strobe cream, I used loreal glotion, and use a flat top kabuki-type foundation brush that you can press in with. Get a generous amount of the foundation and really go ham on stamping it in. It's definitely still not full coverage but it sits so much better on my skin like that and honestly gives that "glass skin" vibe which I really love. That's just my two cents. It's definitely not for a full glam night off because it won't hold up to an all night out etc. It's perfect for summer when you don't want to really wear makeup but I do think you can get it up to a light medium coverage with the method I've been using.

    I love Mac, its the second most brand occurring in my collection, Nars is the only brand I own more of. I feel like a lot of people get shafted with the paint pots because they dry out, they do not dry out easy so you are buying some ancient product if it dried out. I like Princess Cut and Bare Study because of the colour pearls in them. My favourite eyeshadow is Stary night, its so beautiful, it looks black but comes off purple on your lid. I also love the extra dimension blushes, they can also be thought of as a pigmented highlight. Lipstick wise (i have 6) Antique Velvet, Smoked Purple and Icon are favourites

    Vintage paint pot is my “go to” for a very quick, more undone look. I use it over my lids, applying with my finger. I then use Kevvyn Aucoin contour powder in Light in my crease. Sometimes I take the extra step and apply Wet n wild’s Creme Brûlée on my brow bone. I’m pretty fair with a cool undertone, but I have blonde hair. IDK, maybe it’s the hair that makes a difference 🤷‍♀️

    Thank you! I’m always amazed that so many channels never talk about strobe cream. I feel the original pearl (light one) was one of the original cream highlighters! I use it under makeup and as a cream highlight and the tiny travel size lasts a really long time! I used to love their cream color base in fantastical and was so sad when they discontinued. I still use their cream color base in Shell which is a beautiful blush topper or cream eyeshadow. I’m also a huge fan of their creamsheen lipsticks! Recently picked Crosswire w my back to Mac swap. I do love that they have that program!

  • @janna5558
    @janna5558 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Jess, try rubbing the Face and Body on your fingers and then spread on the face. When it is applied tacky to the face the coverage is better, plus it can be built up. If you're not going to get rid of it, try that way and see if you like it better. I love it because it evens the skin tone more then the coverage!

  • @k.j.bloodhartnaranen9237

    I love Mac Face & Body as a mix in with other thicker foundations to make them more like a tinted moisturizer consistency for the hot Phoenix summers. I usually add one pump of the thick foundation and a few drops of the Face & Body, mix, and it's perfect. I've also used Face & Body alone with the It cosmetics heart foundation brush, which works great for me. I also use it to tone down a summer foundation shade, when I'm in between summer - winter shades. My favs are the extra dimension highlighters in Show Gold and Beaming Blush and extra dimension blush in Sweets for For My Sweet.

    If you love a glow/sheen in your highlight/blush/bronzer I really recommend checking the extra dimension highlights and blushes/bronzers from mac, they are the most stunning! Easy to apply and blend, colour payoff is great but somehow it is still quite hard to go too heavy handed! I have three blushes and two highlighters from extra dimension line and i have since ditched all the other highlights and blushes :)

    When I first started wearing makeup the Face and Body foundation was the first real foundation I bought and I loooovvved it. I bought the big one. This was about 5 yrs ago and my skin was so dry. I wore it every day to work and I got a lot of compliments on my skin. I need to repurchase for “no makeup” makeup days. I do recommend setting it if you don’t have dry skin though.

    I love the strobe cream, blacktrack liner, cream base in hush and face & body foundation, you have to really work it into the skin until it forms a film and then you can build it up for more coverage, it’s water, sweat and transfer proof but you can’t apply it like a regular foundation, you really have to massage it in.

    I use Vintage Selection as a sticky base for pigments or under other eyeshadows (like sable), rather than as an eyeshadow itself. I don't think it works any better or worse than Painterly, but it can help prolong the staying power of whatever similarly colored pigment that I put over it.

    You must try teddy eyekohl if you love costa riche they both look great smudged on the eyes. If you want a little more coverage from face and body pour some on a palette let it sit for 2 minutes it will thicken adding alittle more coverage. You should also try the new love me lipsticks they look like a gloss on the lips and the dazzle shadows are beautiful. Sweat heat, Havana and Smokey mauve extra dimension shadows are amazing no glitter but intense metallic shine.

    My MAC holy grail products are: Fix+, Strobe Cream and Painterly Paint Pot. I also do like their eyeshadows, but always get the refill size pans for $7.
    Love your channel!!! Keep up the great videos! 😊

      The area I live in, the MAC counters don’t sell the refill pans. I have been ordering them online. Not sure about the MAC stores.
      Hope this is helpful. 😊

    Mac creamsheen lipsticks are great. I never liked lip glosses because I have full lips. This one is gives me the right shine without looking too glossy. Sweet sakura is my fave!

    I love LOVE love the Fix Plus. I love double gleam as well. MAC Prolong Wear is my holy grail foundation. I use it to mix in with other foundations just to get them to look better. Creme in Your Coffee, Capricious, and Modesty are my favorite MAC lip colors. Painterly Paint Pot is the best eye shadow primer ever.

    I had to go watch the old vid before this one. I love how some things haven’t changed in the last five years. Still loving your Ebates and disliking glitter fall out. I remember that video made me order rice paper for the first time. Also, I remember feeling SOOOOO COOL because two of your favorite lipsticks were my favorite (cream cup and syrup). Now I feel like I need to go make a new quad, a paint pot and maybe a blush.

    I didn’t like MAC at first because I thought they were overpriced. But along the years I bought a lot of there products that I really love. I suggest that you try the mineralized foundation, it’s medium coverage and looks great on more mature skin and dry skin. There extradimention blushes are sssssoooo good, if you don’t want a highlighter but still want some sheen on your cheeks.

  • @RissyTloves
    @RissyTloves 5 ปีที่แล้ว +20

    I didn't really love FIX +. It burns my eyelids and makes my foundation too dewy so I can see why people with dry skin would love it. I LOVE the Studio Fix pressed powder, it's beautiful. I like the MSF Natural as a finishing powder, so glowy and pretty. Studio Fix Fluid is beautiful too but the smell 🤢 is too strong, and I think it breaks me out if I wear it too often.

      Fix plus doesn’t work for me, it hurts my skin and I’m in the dry/dehydrated category. It also breaks me out and its extremely wet? Like ik, its liquid but it doesn’t dry into the skin. Just me? 😂💁‍♀️.

    I swear by the studio concealer. Whenever I have a pimple, I always get lingering redness (Im SUPER fair) and this is the only thing that cancels out EVERYTHING. That being said, I wouldnt put it under my eyes, I agree. Face and Body I kinda feel the same way, I struggle with it because no shade is light enough for me....its pretty on the skin, but I like my It Cosmetics CC much better.
    Great video Jess!

  • @lgempet2869

    So glad that I’m not the the only one that thinks MAC’s Give me Sun bronzer pulls WAY orange! Thought it was “just me.” I have medium-olive skin tone (neutral-warm) & really just can’t pull-off that shade on my skin tone though I’ve tried. For comparison, the Hourglass Radiant Bronze Light & Laura Mercier Bronze #4 Baked Bronzer are all perfect on me & I believe the darkest shades those lines offer in bronzers....but just can’t do MAC’s Give Me Sun.

    You made me gasp - the Skin Tint is my HG! Truly, truly wont use anything else at this point. I’ve tried oodles and oodles of foundations and tinted moisturizer but I always come back to that one. I mix it sometimes with the pink primer you talked about - Gorgeous!

  • @redzgirl2476
    @redzgirl2476 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Half n Half. its the perfect middle ground between pink and brown, and the amplified cream formula is full coverage, wears forever and wears off in a beautiful way, but most of all, it literally makes my lips look fuller. I guess thats the magic behind "amplified"... Ive been loving doublegleam also. Lightscapade is nice too but more subtle, like the physicians formula with the pearl on it...

    Great video! My all time favorite MAC eye shadow is Orb. I dust it all over my lid and leave it be if I just want to have a “no makeup” make up day. I layer other shadows over it if I want more color. I’m totally trying the MAC lip in Modesty! It looks right up my alley. 💄❤️

    Jessica I love your makeup today. It's so natural and radiant looking. I am definitely going to check out that face and body foundation. I already own the mineralize powder which I do love. The eyeshadow looks amazing so does your blush. Great day to day look and it makes your skin look so healthy!

  • @kaykhanom
    @kaykhanom 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I feel like you just mentioned everything I started my makeup collection with and still use along with all the other brands. The strobe cream was in a more neutral tone but with the release of gold light I'm in love. Soft brown, woodwinked, sable were my fav eye shadows for the longest time. I still use Brun to fill my brows in. Melba and warm soul are beautiful blushers but the warm soul formulation has changed (not for the better) the blusher called Blushbaby and peaches are brilliant blushes to have in any pro kit. The lipsticks in faux, modesty, half n half, velvet teddy, kinda sexy, mocha & patisserie are all beautiful. Lip pencils in sour, spice and boldly bare are all brilliant staples. The pigment in naked is beautiful on the inner corner and brow bone. The extended play mascara for the lower lashes is also wonderful. The pro long wear concealer mixed with the prep + prime concealer in bright forecast will give you the most amazing under eyes. I hope they don't discontinue these two out of all of the above

    Omg I love vintage selection. It would work very well if you use it as a base for any metallic eyeshadow and even on its own. It has a better effect than you think when looking yourself on the mirror. The give me sun Is 100% way too orange for your completion and I would also 100% recommend popping half a pump of the pro longwear concealer on your face and body foundation for extra coverage. These two work so well together by far one of my favorite combos. 😅
