Everyone makes a mistake

Today I went to MAC after years, literally ages.. you know that shopping compulsion that occurs when you enter a shop..well.. I had in mind some things to buy but as usual I bought pushed by my feelings and not by my mind..
Then I actually bought one thing I wanted...a peach orange blush that yet I didn‘t own (sounds unbelievable I know) and a lipstick..despite my moratorium..

Let‘s go straight to the lipstick : Sheen Supreme in Fashion city

Just when I was walking out of the shop I realized that I might own already something similar and I was right, damn!! The culprit is: Cremesheen in Ravishing 





































Ravishing on the bottom and Fashion City on the top.
My thoughts: As you can see they are almost the same!Ravishing is a little bit more pinky while Fashion city is more peach, orange. The finish is pretty the same, but still I cannot express my opinion since I haven‘t tried it for an entire day!


Melba Powder blush
My second matte blush from Mac. I love matte blushes, they are so natural and I think this color will be a must in my spring/summer routine. When the weather is hot you don‘t wanna look like a sparkling disco ball and matte blushes are a thumb up for me!
















Here the swatch, on the bottom heavily swatched (bottom), slightly (top)
