Get Haute & Naughty with MAC's Latest Mascara

TheGlamtastic — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 00:00:00 PDT

One of my girlfriends, who will remain nameless, desperately needs color in her life! While I can't convince her to infuse her wardrobe with light or bright shades, she's open to experimenting when it comes to her makeup.

For ladies who swear by an exclusively black wardrobe, MAC Cosmetics is here to brighten their look with MAC's new Haute & Naughty Lash Mascara ($18.00). This beyond-bright two-in-one mascara lets ladies customize their lashes. Check out the examples to your left.

This rich formula doesn't flake, break or dry out lashes. It utilizes a hydrating formula for naturally defined or wow-o-wow lashes!

Get a sneak peak online only at www.maccosmetics.com. As of September 2010, Haute & Naughty Mascara will be available at all locations in the permanent collection.

Which of these looks get you haute and bothered???

A Pink That Pops! MAC Cosmetics Tinted Lipglass

TheGlamtastic — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 12:45:35 PDT

MAC Cosmetics Tinted Lipglass $14.00- http://www.maccosmetics.com/

If your looking for a vibrant pink that has spring written all over it, go for an ultra light and beautifully bright lip gloss that pops!

After testing various shades, and being called a street walker by my husband at least once, I have to admit, I just can't get enough of the new MAC Cosmetics high gloss Lipglass in the super sexy shade, Just Add Color. Wear it over bare lips for a light layer of color, apply it over lip liner for a deeper shade and if you want to go all the way, go wild and layer lip pencil and your new gloss with a coating of lipstick.

This variety of playful spring and summer shades uses Jojoba Oil to condition dry, spring lips.

This Tinted Lipglass comes with a soft sponge tip applicator that lets you pretty up your lips anywhere you headed this spring! And if you paint your face by mistake, it easily washes right off - no pink stains to speak of!

This spring it's PINK, PINK, PINK!

What's your new favorite spring shade? Tell us about it!

Lady Gaga + Cyndi Lauper = MAC Viva Glam

TheGlamtastic — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 08:58:19 PST

When I think of Lady Gaga, I think of my co-worker who is the unofficial D.J. in our office, who often blares our Lady Gaga Favs! I think of Lady Gaga's hottie dress at the Grammy's (OMG, I could never pull off such a get up)...

Beginning today, my opinion of Lady Gaga has drastically changed!

Yesterday, MAC Cosmetics and the MAC Aids Fund shared the news that Lady Gaga and Cyndi Lauper are lending their high-voltage diva personalities and ignite MAC's "From Our Lips" campaign. They are out and about on behalf of MAC to spread the word, the facts and fibs related to women and HIV/AIDS.

According to the MAC Aids Fund, women are more likely to become infected with HIV than men. In the US, the number of women living with HIV has TRIPLED since 1985.

MAC donates the 100% of the profits of each Viva Glam lipstick ($14) to AIDS research.

LOVE IT!

The MAC Aids Fund, started in 1994, works to raise awareness, provide education, assistance and prevent the spread of AIDS. To date, the MAC Aids fund has raised over $150 million dollars in 67 countries! Wow, that is some pretty powerful lipstick and lip glass!

You can't help but fall in love with a company that supports and strengthens the lives of women!

Can you save the world and fight HIV/AIDS with a creamy flamingo pink or ripe red MAC lipstick?

Every little bit helps:)

Happy V-Day!

Do your lips need some lovin'? Well until Romeo storms the scene, give your lips some love with MAC's new DazzleGlass Creme.

These playful lip glosses sparkle and shine like no other. They are formulated with super hydrating aloe and Vitamin E to soothe and comfort lips. These luxe lip glasses also come with the perfect applicator brush.

My favorite shade is the DolI It Up, a vibrant peachy pink blend with diamond shine flecks. (Check it out below).

Wear them alone for some light lip color, or layer these glosses on top of lip pencil, lipstick or another shade of gloss to create your own shade.
