WARNING: MAC Spring Colour Forecast Is Getting Harder to Resist
With more than 40 precious pieces of eye, lip and face makeup spread out among its four different color-themed collections, the new MAC Spring Colour Forecast release overwhelmed me at first. There’s *a lot* in it to digest, and when you’re prone to frequent bouts of makeup-related stimulus overload (like moi ), it can be a bit much. To explore the collection, I’ve been trying to bite off little bits at a time, my own Mini Makeup Missions

According to recent studies, one-third of working Americans will not use all of their allotted vacation time this year, and the rest seem unable to decompress, taking working “breaks” that involve bringing blackberries, email, and piles of work along. The economy is rough, and many of us are holding onto our jobs for dear life, but vacations are a physical and emotional necessity, not a luxury, helping you to sleep better, feel more energized, and look 100% better..and besides, no one really cares about seeing the same ole' photos of palm trees and ubiquitous tropical sunsets. If you hear yourself wishing for “Belize, please!”, and find that – but for the price! – cruises and island getaways entice, why not consider a few days of R&R Chez Toi, taking some time to discover what's fun (and affordable) to do right in your own backyard.

I’m still doing some playing testing, but here’s a really quick look… Urban Decay tried to make their new loose powder universally flattering, but they sure didn’t make the name easy to say, ha! Razor Sharp Ultra Definition Finishing Powder ($30) is quite a mouthful (say it five times fast!), but it does feel soft, slippery and very finely milled

Full disclosure: I got this product as a PR freebie, and I receive many free products from MAC. I've always wondered what liner and/or primer Amy Winehouse uses. No matter how rough a night she's had – and let's face it, she's had her share – her eyeliner always remains astonishingly resilient .
