It just went super icy cold in Berlin and I am just trying to survive. It&#8217;s getting darker and darker much more early every day, this is the period I hate the most. Luckily, the darkest day will be in December and the days will start again to get longer with every single day! ^-^ When I was freezing yesterday during my shopping trip, I tried to find shelter at Douglas (which is, I guess, the German version of Sephora..?). There, they had a MAC counter. I never ever purchased anything from MAC, but as a beauty blogger I feel the urgent need to, lol. There are so many people craving about their products, I just HAD to try them. Plus, I just ran out of my favourite foundation and wanted to try some &#8220;better&#8221; ones for a while now. I tried out Dior and Chanel but their foundations are way too sheer for my troubled skin and after some research I heard that MAC might have a good solution for that. So I entered and with all the bravery I had, I asked a staff member if she could help me find a foundation. You have to know, I hate to consult the staff members when it comes to beauty products and trying them out. I always feel that I need to buy something because they spend so much time with me, it&#8217;s like a pressure to buy. So this actually was my very first time consulting anyone in the beauty industry about my skin. The girl I asked was pretty busy so another girl then started to try out things on my skin. I have to say she really was nice and caucious; she didn&#8217;t punch me in a corner like &#8220;This is good you should buy this&#8221; but instead she kept asking about what exactly I wanted. She kept making suggestions and in the end she did my whole face make-up with moisturizer, foundation, powder, concealer, blush and lipgloss :&#8217;D She then left me and said I could use all her materials and brushes how I like to and she&#8217;ll be near if I&#8217;d needed any help. I felt so cared about! Seriously, that was a whole new experience. They didn&#8217;t even mention the word &#8220;buy&#8221; once, they just kept on making tips and asking if they could help me with anything. I didn&#8217;t feel any pressure to buy at all but in the end when I decided she seemed really happy that she could help a lost soul \ud83d\ude00 What a great service! I was so surprised in a positive way. S So this is what I got; the Studio Fix Fluid in NC 15 (the lightest shade as far as I know) and a Sheertone Shimmer Blush in Springsheen. The Studio Fix Fluid the the foundation with the best coverage from MAC which has a matte finish. Although it costed me four times the price for my normal foundation, it&#8217;s &#8220;only&#8221; double the price considering it also contains double the content. (18ml vs. 30ml) I&#8217;ll make a review on this foundation in 1-2 weeks when I know how it lasts the day, if it makes me breakout etc etc. I&#8217;ve only worn it 2 days from now but so far it looks and feels great! So natural yet high coverage, I&#8217;m in love. I hope it doesn&#8217;t wear down while I&#8217;m working but we&#8217;ll see! LOOK AT DAT COLOR. It&#8217;s a spring looking coral with a pink hit and golden sparkles.&nbsp;&nbsp;The blush is sheer, yet it shows very well on the skin and has such a nice sparkling finish! Definitely adds a little glow to my skin, these two will be my new make-up routine for work! \ud83d\ude00 Comparison of my usual foundation from Maybelline in 03 Sand. I was quite shocked when I saw how much these differ from each other! I knew that 03 Sand is a bit(?)&nbsp;too dark for me, however 02 Fawn was way too light and provided no coverage. So I always had to blend out my foundation veeeery carefully so that I won&#8217;t have any mask effect. MAC&#8217;s shade has the perfect tone for my skin so it is super easy to apply and blend into! I&#8217;m still amazed how well it covers everything yet looks so natural. I surely am deeply in love \ud83d\ude00 &lt;3 The MAC staff member applied it with a sponge, however, it worked very fine with my bare fingers. Detailed review will follow when I wore the foundation some weeks \ud83d\ude42 So, what do you think of these? Are you on the MAC lover side too?&nbsp;Or did you have any negative experiences? Since this whole MAC universe is completely knew to me I would love to hear your opinions! \ud83d\ude42 I fear this will be the only haul this month since I just received a heavy bill from my insurance (600$ &nbsp;which I should pre pay for March 2013 o___O&#8221;&#8221;) and went from quite wealthy to poor in just some minutes. If I knew that before I would have gotten myself the cosmetics for Christmas and not this month =_=&#8221; &nbsp; I hope you enjoyed this little post! Thanks for stopping by \ud83d\ude42 Much love &amp; See you next time! Sam","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/-nCmneTTJ-g4\/UJp2IDfuVSI\/AAAAAAAAEsM\/rJhII99bRWs\/s1600\/mac2.jpg"}
