MAC office hours collection

All about that warm, pink tone. I was at the mac store today DETERMINED to buy that red lipstick that i was talking about from the Marilyn Monroe collection but sadly i was a step too late !! they were all sold out and the only one left was the lip pencil which i tried but they just wasn't what i wanted. Just when i was about to leave the store i saw the "OFFICE HOURS" collection on the other end of the store, out of curiosity, i went and had a look. what caught my i eye was the darker colored blushes that they had........... 

Best thing about really brightly colored blushes is that since they are so pigmented you can either build up or sheer down the color when you apply it, unlike the lighter shades where you have to  building up layers and layers of product just to let the color stand out. I tried out "stubborn"(first from the right, second role) its a midtone rose plum color, its warm with more pink/brown tone to it. I tried it on, and since its a pro-longwear blush the product was highly pigmented, so a tiny bit goes a long way!! 

Buying it was one of those thing that i wasn't so sure of..... Firstly i am crazy about makeup but i never buy what i dont need, this was a product that i didn't really need, i have like 3 blushed at home and im not even done with half of it :( but since i didn't have a color like this so i thought yeah why not ;) so here i go again.....  retail therapy!!!
