I love contouring my face and I really want to try MAC pro sculpting cream!
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I just bought the darkest pro sculpting cream from MAC (I have dark skin) and it is amazing!! The Sleek one looks like it would be great, too. Thanks for this, girls!
ReplyDeleteGreat selection here :)! Thanks for posting x
ReplyDeleteBoth of those lovely cool-tones powder contours (perfect for pale skin) have been discontinued! Can you recommend a new product that is good? I love the absence of orange from them, and that they are so matte. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI love this post, my wishlist is bigger now ;) thank you for sharing
ReplyDeleteI love NYX blush in Taupe!

ReplyDeleteI have the sleek kit and I love it, but I would love to try the cream contour by Mac! thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteGreat Post! Love when you do these informative posts. Never heard of the Mac Pro Sculpting Cream. Might have to try that out. I agree with you, the Sleek medium (which I use) does have an orangey tint to it. Thought I was imagining this. Lol xx

I'm completely obsessed with the Pro Sculpting Creams from M.A.C, they are amazing. The brush that they brought out from this range (number 163) is also FANTASTIC!!!!!! Makes the application even easier <3
ReplyDeleteI'm usually NC15 and am looking to find the right MAC contouring product with no frost. I was looking at the pro sculpting powder (not cream) and can't decide if the color Sculpt or Bone Beige would be best. Theres no MAC stores around me, so if you could help that'd be great :) love your vids!!
