WOW!!! Look at these new Promo Pics from MAC….Gorgeous!! And they are claiming to be using some really cool new technology, they are calling “water charged technology”. They also say it has Vitamin C, green tea, and other free radical fighters in the formula. (read the official blurb below for more info) I honestly have no idea whether it works or not but I am loving the promotion for these products and the packaging is by far the best I have seen in at least two years. Such a change from the norm: stark silver. Yes you read right – stark silver. Scroll down for pics of the products. (and I really wanted to write this is in a great silver color but it didn’t work out, so this is what I came up with)

This is such a HOT LOOK! Here are the instructions below:
How To: Step 1) Apply
How To:
Step 1) Apply primer in a medium shade over eyelids and brow bone to clarify skin texture and tone with soft, fluffy brush: Prep+Prime Eye /
252 Large Shader Brush
Step 2) Begin by blending a mid-toned matte taupe/sepia eye shadow through the crease of the eye. Starting on the outer corner of the eyes and on the lower lash line, build the eye shadow gradually, defining the contour of the eyes with a light touch. This will enhance the natural shape of the eye with a subtle effect: Eye Shadow – Texture / 217 Blending Brush
Step 3) Next, begin highlighting eyelids with a brighter tone of eye shadow. This could be opalescent or matte in texture. Use a brush that has a smaller, dense head. This will provide the necessary control when working with textures that shimmer especially: Eye Shadow – All That Glitters / 272 Small Angled Shader
Step 4) Apply the highlighting eye shadow with a stronger intensity on the inner corner of eyelids, this will open up eyes without having to use much product: Eye Shadow – All That Glitters / 272 Small Angled Shader
Step 5) Highlights may be add under brows, but should be kept matte, with little shine for the most natural appearance: Prep+Prime Eye / 239 Eye Shading Brush
Step 6) Curl lashes to open up the eyes: Lash Curler
Step 7) Apply one or two coats of mascara. The sculpted eye is beautiful in it’s simplicity, but paying close attention to details…such as lashes and brows, is imperative for a finished, polished effect: Plush Lash Mascara – Plushblack
Step 8) Open up eyes further and make the eyes look more rounded by highlighting the lower lash line with a liner pencil: Eye Kohl – Powersurge
Step 9) Groom brows with a brow pencil to fill in gaps: Eye Brows – Lingering
Step 10) Apply brow gel to keep brow hairs in place and to create a polished look: Brow Set – Clear
Step 11) Warm up the crease to add intensity by using a warmer eye shadow: Eye Shadow – Embark / 224 Tapered Blending Brush
