My Mary Kay

I recently received my new Mary Kay products. So I decided to share it with you guys.
A small rewind, I got in contact with Mary Kay at a girl´s night themed evening in town. So we, my mum and my sister, booked a skin care class. It was so much fun and after that i´ve been to different theme nights and a few weeks ago i went to a makeup class. Wich was very fun as well. My Mary Kay skin care consultant just opened a studio so that´s were the classes are held. But the first class was held at my parents house. And she just takes so good care of you and make the classes and get-togethers so pleasant and like an everyday luxury.

Anyway the products that I bought at the opening of the studio was a cc-cream, a translucent powder and a lipstick. The cc-cream is pretty new and comes in four different tones I think. And it has SPF 15 in it which is very good because you should always protect your skin from the sun. The translucent powder is perfect to set the cc-cream and you don´t have to try out shades that matches your skin tone or cc-cream, or whatever covering product you use. I can also add that I don't use foundation and similar products that often. At the moment I don't even own a foundation. The reason is that i´ve had problems with breakouts and stuff so when I got rid of it (and hopefully it will stay away) I was a bit scared of putting a lot of stuff on my face. But this cc-cream is very light and feels good on my skin. But I still don´t use it every day because I simply don´t feel like I have that much to cover. But I like the cc-cream because like I said it´s light and doesn't feel like a mask on my face and I like the SPF. It hasn't got the same coverage as a foundation but it evens out your skin nicely. So that's great!
The lipstick is the True dimensions in Mystic Plum. It's kind of a purple color but definitely still wearable on an everyday basis if you like to add more color to your lips.

At the makeup class i bought the Mary Kay compact. It's like a small palette that you can customize yourself by filling it with the eyeshadow, blush or lipstick you want. The Compact has room for three eyeshadows and one blush, bronzer or highlighter and one lipstick or lipgloss and three little Compact brushes.
(There is one smaller size, Compact Mini, that holds the same minus the lipstick and one bigger; Compact Pro, that holds a bit more).
I filled my Compact with three eyeshadows, Spun Silk, Hazelnut and Espresso. They are all basic colors in different shades of brown. The blush I got was the Coral Sunrise. And last but not least I added the three little brushes (one for blush and two for eyeshadow).
Why did I get the Compakt? I was looking for something to keep in my purse. I always have a toiletry bag in my purse with all kinds of stuff that can be necessary when you´re away from home. And in that little bag I wanted some sort of everyday-go-to-good-for-all-occasions-makeup-thing. And the Compact filled that quest so that was good!







You buy all the products separately and you attach the colors with a magnet in the Compact.



I guess that's pretty much it. I hope you liked it and as always, if you have any questions or something you'd like to share, let me know.
