For you M·A·C addicts, here are swatches of the beauty powder blushes. I was going to Verizon to get another cell phone activated (long story; it’s almost like I go through cell phones like I go through underwear) and it was by the mall, so I stopped by M·A·C. I needed to get some eye cream for my sister anyway, so it all worked out. Overall, they were pretty pigmented and I liked the texture. They have a little bit of shimmer, definitely not glittery, which is good for me because I hate glitter. I ended up with True Romantic, but I think I’ll go back for Shy Beauty (this is a very pretty color and would make a good highlight if used with a light hand) and maybe Secret Blush as well. Sweetness definitely reminded me of Fashion Frenzy from the Fafi collection, so it was easy to pass that up. If you missed out on that, I suggest grabbing Sweetness because I have a feeling this will run out quick.

Here are some pictures, courtesy of Specktra (as if it isn’t already obvious)…
