So, I have an appointment at MAC this Saturday for a makeup lesson/trial dealio.
Has anyone done this? Did you have to pay for/buy full sizes of any of the makeup they used on you?
I really dont know what Im doing when it comes to makeup, I rarely wear it. I'm worried this could get expensive and then I wont ever use the makeup I buy....
Re: MAC makeup trial
My suggestion would be to make a list of all the items they used, and then purchase the minimum amount only that day. Go home, think about it, and then go back and buy what you really want/need/can't get elsewhere. Also remember to take pics of your makeup!!! I'm sure you'll have a blast, their makeup artists are always fabulous!!!

Good luck! I always love their work!
I'm not sure what the minimum purchase was, but I definitely did NOT have to pay for them to show me what to do....
I'm pretty sure the minimum is $50, but I spent WAY MORE than that. I agree with Danielle. Buy the things you think are the most necessary-like foundation, eyeshadow, lipstick. I bought all the brushes there and am kicking myself for it now. I could have found the same quality brushes somewhere else for cheaper. I bought mascara, eyeliner, fake eyelashes, & blush at Target for cheaper and it worked fine. If you purchase fake lashes, buy the human hair ones from Ardell-sold at Target. they are like $5 & work awesome! Oh! and I bought the lid primer Alison (AlaskanAlison) recommends in her bio and LOVE it!! Don't go with the MAC lid primer...I feel like it's too greasy and it totally doesn't work as good as the Urban decay stuff!

Ditto on this! I hate the MAC lid primer. Honestlly I only really like MAC eyeshadows, blushes, and bronzers. I always feel like their foundation makes me look cakey or like a clown. I like a lighter coverage than MAC has been able to offer me (at least in the past).
I haven't tried the Urban Decay lid primer, but I think I will now!
