A 15-Minute MAC Divine night Look, and a note to My Perpetually Late Self

A quick touch-up with Prepare for pleasure Cremesheen Glass
Dear Perpetually Late Self (yes, I am talking to myself),

What is it with you and clocks!? Why are you always running behind? Seriously, why can’t you ever get from point A to B on time? It’s a mystery that I don’t even know if the universe understands…

(#realtalk: I suspect that it might have something to make with time management, which isn’t exactly your strong suit… but I’m not about to tell you that. Oh, hell no. I value my life and sanity too much, so I’ll continue to pretend it’s due to cosmic forces out of our control.)

But I do appreciate that you’re working on it. Your decision to do a full face in 15 minutes today with the new MAC Divine night holiday collection was a dazzling idea.

Snaps, man. At least you’re trying.

The six Divine night Mineralize Eye shadows ($23 US, $27.50 CAN each)
OK, I can see why you chose to start with the Mineralize Eye shadows from this collection. Each one has two shades, so they’re like a ready-to-wear duo in every pan.

Exquisite Ego Mineralize Skinfinish Eye Shadow, a bronze, and a soft white champagne
Good choice opting for the bronze and pink Exquisite Ego. Bravo. because the colors are neutrals, even if you do a slap-dash job applying them, people probably won’t even notice your mistakes. I’d do the same thing.

The flat shape of the MAC 239 brush helps keep fallout to a minimum

And I applaud your decision to use a flat shader brush like the MAC 239, considering that it helps minimize fallout. I like that you patted the lighter color all over your lids, and then swished the darker color along your lash line for a sparkly kick, without having to spend forever and a day blending.

Kohl Power Eye Pencil in Orpheus, an intense black with a golden pearl ($17.50 US, $21 CAN)
I also liked how you lined your lower lash line with Orpheus Kohl Power Pencil, and then smudged it with the same MAC 239. The little extra definition it added to the look made it clear that you at least tried.

Oh, and you managed to find a few seconds to do your brows and lashes, too? Bagus!

Mineralize blush in Lured to Love, a coral pink with a satin finish ($27.50 US, $32.50 CAN)
I know it nearly killed you to skip bronzer today, but when you’re pressed for time, it’s all about the basics — products like foundation, under-eye concealer concealer, face powder and blush.

Totes approve of your choice of Lured to love Mineralize Blush, by the way.

Senyum!
First, it’s the least frosty of the three blushes in the Divine night collection, so you know your pores be like, “Hey, boo, HAAAY!”

Plus, the light coral pink color doesn’t need a ton of blending.

Cremesheen Glass in Prepare for Pleasure, a bluish red ($22 US, $25 CAN)
OK, considering that the rest of the look is so minimal, I think you made the ideal call by opting for sheer red Prepare for pleasure Cremesheen Glass.

I think the look needed some brightening up, and sheer, bright glosses like this one are good for that. Oh, and because it’s not too potently pigmented, you were able to skip lip liner.

Skor.

Out the door in 15!
