Revolutionizing the use of the “Salmon” or pinky/peach color as an under eye concealer to neutralize the dark blue undertones from the skin. (Yellows mixed with the blue undertones create those greenish/grey raccoon eyes that are highlighted and only accentuate the problem area.) This luxurious silky cream provides full coverage with a non-greasy texture that glides on smooth to the most delicate area of your face. It offers the advantages of the powerful anti-oxidant, AstaReal®/Astaxanthin – a key ingredient in the CosmeNutrient™ Complex. Ideal for use when flawless precision is required with High Definition cameras and real life. For most skin types, including sensitive skin. AstaREAL®, the key ingredient in Eve Pearl’s CosmeNutrient™ Complex, it is the most recognized brand of Astaxanthin. AstaReal® is not only a coloring agent; it is also a very potent anti-oxidant.
Eve Pearl Magic Salmon Concealer is a lifesaver. Dark circles disappear instantly, until you wash your face. Don’t let the strange color fool you; it works.

They make it in a pro palette containing all ten shades, or in trios of light to medium and medium to dark; to take you from summer to winter and back again. What’s even better? The great people at Three Custom Color Specialists can recreate your favorite discontinued shades for the lips, cheeks, eyes, and face. I’ve seen them do it!

This exciting, innovative product has been uniquely formulated to matte the shine of oily skin. Most of the large makeup manufacturers have tried to duplicate this product with no success. Super Matte Anti shine has been used by leading film and television actors. It leaves skin feeling fresh and taut and won’t produce that “caked on” feeling you get from powder. It is available in three sheer shades: light, medium, and dark. Anti shine is great not only for women, but also for men’s palms, foreheads and balding scalps.
Face to Face Super Matte Anti Shine is a must for those outdoor, summer weddings. Give a tube to every guest as a party favor! It’s a little excessive but they will love you even more for it!

Studio Fix is a powder and foundation in one that combines good coverage with ease of application. Designed to be used dry, the powder and pigments create a matte, velvety texture. It contains Silica, which helps to maintain a matte finish by absorbing oils on the skin, as well as Talc to provide a smoother, less reflective, matte finish. The talc has been milled to a microscopic size to provide a beautiful texture while allowing the skin to breathe. This product is long-wearing. It is available in a wide range of colours. It can be applied with a brush, sponge, or a powder puff.
Perfection in a compact! I like to apply MAC Studio Fix with my 187 Duo Fiber Brush for a very sheer layer of velvety goodness. This powder is actually fine enough to place around the eye, (sparingly) yet pigmented enough to camofluage a stubborn pimple.

A water-based, water-resistant foundation that provides long-lasting, natural coverage for face and/or body. Ideal for all skin types. Face and Body Foundation provides sheer, natural looking coverage in an easy to blend, water-resistant formula. The long-lasting formula is available in a wide range of colours and contains several emollients to help moisturize and condition the skin. It delivers professional looking results that meet the exacting standards of beauty photography and is ideal for perfecting the face and body.
MAC Face and Body is my official foundation! It allows me to do very clean, natural, bare skin looks without shine; or I can couple it with a light layer of Studio Fix for more coverage. Either way, it stays put and leaves the skin looking incredibly smooth and even toned.

Eye Pencils are formulated to provide rich, consistent colour using ingredients that have virtually no irritancy potential. They are comfortable to apply and sharpen to a fine point to allow for a precise application. Eye Pencils can be used to create a sharp line or a softer, smoky effect. They are long-lasting and won’t cake or streak.
MAC Eye Pencil in Taupe, is great for the lower lash line. It offers the perfect amount of definition; not to harsh not to soft.

Waterproof. Longwearing. Metallic, shimmer and matte finishes. Smooth to apply. Won’t transfer, smudge, or budge… Draws the line: powers your eyes. Makes its point. Lasts.
I keep MAC PowerPoint Eye Pencil in Engraved, Stubborn Brown and Grey Utility; but as to be expected from MAC, there are a ton of beautiful options.
