18 MAC to School Makeup Tips
Mon, 08/11/2008 by Karen | Posted in: MAC Makeup, Makeup Tips/How To, News, Top Posts
Guess what? I decided to go back to school on Saturday. Yup, I attended a 2-hour MAC Studio Talk makeup class at Bloomingdale’s in SF, and, like the Chanel master class at Macy’s a couple weeks ago, it was packed with makeup tips and new product information.
Watching a video at the start of class
If you love makeup, brand-sponsored classes like these are a great way to spend a Saturday afternoon. I found out about the MAC Studio Talk class through the Bloomingdale’s website. Ask in the stores, as well (check with the counter staff), because other brands offer similar classes.
Makeup classes like these are often free, but sometimes stores or brands will charge a nominal fee. Classes are usually kept small (30 people or less), and in some cases hands-on (as was the MAC Studio Talk class), where you’re able to apply products on yourself. Other times, they’ll be more lecture-style. To reserve a spot in a MAC Studio Talk class through Bloomingdale’s costs $75, but that amount also applies toward the purchase of MAC products at the end of the class. If you were planning to spend some money on a new collection anyway, a class like one of these may be a fun way to couple your new products with some professional instruction.
MAC Studio Makeup Talk
Each student was given a choice to learn either a bridal look or a club-inspired look. I chose the club look, and the instructors described each step in the process. I picked up a few tips along the way.
1. Beat the Heat with MAC Wipes
When it’s hot out, store MAC Wipes ($17) in the fridge. It keeps them feeling crisp and refreshing against your skin when used to remove your makeup.
2. Fix+ to Soothe Red Areas
If you have red, splotchy skin, spritz Fix+ ($16) over your entire face before applying your makeup. Not only does the spray prep skin for makeup application, but it contains soothing chamomile as well.
3. Primer Reduces the Need for Touch-Ups
Face primers are great for oily skinned ladies and gents. You won’t have to reapply your makeup as often throughout the day if you use a primer first. MAC has two kinds, Prep + Prime Skin ($23) and Prep + Prime Face Protect SPF 50 ($28).
4. Use Fast Response Eye Cream to Minimize Fine Lines
If you have fine lines around your eyes or mouth, apply Fast Response Eye Cream ($28.50) to the areas before applying any of your makeup (even foundation). The formula contains optical diffusers to minimize the appearance of fine lines.
5. Layer Foundation: It’s Easier to Add Than to Take Away
A little foundation goes a long way. It’s better to start with less and to build it up to the coverage you want. It’s easier to slowly add product than it is to take it away.
6. Studio Tech Foundation for Medium Coverage
MAC Studio Tech ($29), a cream foundation in a compact tends to be lighter than MAC’s fluid foundations. I’m normally an NC 35, but Studio Tech in a slightly darker NC 37 provides great medium coverage and helps soften and diffuse lines on the skin.
7. Use Downward Strokes to Apply Foundation
Facial hair and fuzz tends to lie vertically on the skin, from top to bottom, so when applying foundation with something like a 190 Foundation Brush ($32), use downward strokes to and go with the “grain” of the hair.
8. MAC Blot on Your T-zone for a Natural Look
For a natural look, top MAC Studio Tech foundation with MAC Blot Pressed Powder ($21). In the class, I dusted the Medium Deep shade on my T-zone with a 187 Duo Fibre Brush ($42).
9. Apply Bronzer Like a Pro
When you apply bronzer, think of a capital letter E. With Refined Golden Bronzer ($21) and a 187 brush, start near the outer corner of your right eye, swiping down the curve of the cheek bone (under the apple of your cheek). Then, swipe back up the same way. From there, swipe over the right temple onto your upper forehead just below your right hairline. The overall shape you’re shooting for resembles a capital E on the right side. Do the reverse on your left.
10. Apply Blush Like a Champ
When applying blush, grab a 187 duo fiber brush. Swipe it on the blush pan once or twice, tapping off the excess powder. Smile in the mirror to make the apples of your cheeks more prominent and apply with the blush using a small, circular motion. Repeat the process, moving the color up from the apples to the hairline.
11. Tame Unruly Eyebrows
If your brow hairs lie in different directions, Brow Set ($13.50) is a handy product to have around. It’s a gel that acts like hair spray for yours brows, keeping them in place. It even comes with a mascara brush. In a pinch, you can also use it to tame stray hairs elsewhere on the face.
12. Prime Your Eyes with Paint Pots
Eye primer extends the life of your eye shadows. Painterly Paint Pot ($16.50) is a great multi-purpose eye primer. It’s a creamy, nude beige shade that goes with almost all colors. Apply the product over the entire eye using a flat brush like the MAC 242 ($23). You don’t need to use lots of product when it comes to Paint Pots; less is more.
13. Eye Shadow on Your Brow Bone
Shading and color gradients with eye shadows aren’t just for the lid and crease area. When applying color onto the brow bone with eye shadow, start applying color with the brush directly beneath the highest point of the arch of your brow, applying less color in either direction from there. The center beneath the arch is where you’ll want the most color. Concentrating color here creates a focal point and further defines the shape.
14. How to Apply Eye Shadow in the Crease
When applying crease color, use a 224 Tapered Blending Brush, and start with the brush head at the outer end of your lashes (the side near your outer eye). Then, move the color into the crease using a back and forth windshield wiper motion. Lessen the pressure of the brush head as you move the brush into the inner crease; this creates a lighter application of color. The result should be a color gradient that gets lighter as it moves into the crease.
15. How You Hold Your Brush Makes a Big Difference
Where you hold a brush on the handle affects your control. The closer your fingers are to the barrel (the silver section beneath the brush head), the more pressure you put on the brush head. To apply color evenly, place your fingers in the center of the brush handle.
16. Get Big, Bold Lashes with Primer
If you have wimpy lashes like I do, then apply two layers of Prep + Prime Lash ($13.50) after curling your lashes but before applying mascara. It dramatically lengthens and thickens your lashes.
17. Double Your Fun with False Lashes
To take false lashes to the next level, double ‘em up. Glue one row of 7 Lash ($12) on top of a row of 3 Lash ($12).
18. Using Gloss to Create a Pouty Lip
Dab a small amount of gloss in the middle of your bottom lip for a simple pouty look that doesn’t look too goopy or overdone.
A Bridal or a Club Look
Bridal look face chart
Club look face chart
In Saturday’s class, I chose to do the club look, thinking I’d leave with some crazy, colorful eye like in the above chart. Instead, we ended up doing more of a smokey blue eye, with light cheeks and bold pink lips.
I used several MAC products for the look.
Blue Flame eye shadow
For the eyes:
- Painterly Paint Pot cream shadow over the entire eye
- Ricepaper eye shadow on the brow bone, lid and in the inner corner
- Brown Script eye shadow in the crease
- Blue Flame eye shadow in the outer V and lower lash line
- Blacktrack Fluidline gel liner on the top lash line
- Prep+Prime Lash on the upper lashes
- Zoomblack Zoomlash mascara on the upper lashes
- MAC Selectmoisture Cover in NC 30 concealer on my dark circles
For the cheeks:
- Peachykeen blush on the apples
- Refined Golden bronzer on the cheeks
Peachykeen blush
For the lips:
- Half-Red Lip Pencil all over the lips
- Girl About Town Amplified Creme lipstick layered on top of lip pencil
- Bateaux Lustreglass lipgloss on center of lower lip
Bateaux Lustreglass
For the face:
- MAC Studio Tech foundation in NC 37
- MAC Blot Pressed Powder in Medium Deep
My new passport photo, lol!
The MAC Studio Talk class at Bloomingdale’s was a *blast*! I learned so many new application tips, and I also discovered a few new MAC products I really like (Brown Script eye shadow and Prep + Prime Lash). I’m thinking of whipping up a how-to tutorial for the club look I did in class. Do you think I should? Let me know what you think in the comments. 
Well, I got myself up off the couch and decided to do a little writing. I’m still not feeling my usual spunky self, but I do feel better now than I did this morning. How about you?
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen

Karen good that you’re feeling better. These are some excellent tips! You got all these from one single class? Do you know if Macys has the same class? Thanks
3. Tiera said, on August 11th, 2008:
I’m such a huge fan of MAC’s blot powder. I use the loose powder over foundation (or alone on a light makeup day) and I keep the pressed powder in my makeup bag for touch ups throughout the day!

Those eyes look amazing, i never seem to wear much colour on my eyes at all but this looks so wearable that i may just give it a try!! I love the crease colour too!
I love MAC blot powder soooo much i have both the pressed and the loose but i find that the pressed works much better at keeping my oil prone t-zone at bay!
I keep meaning to fill you in on a great makeup experiment that has really been working for me, for about the past week I have been wearing a combo of maxfactor 2000 cal mascara with YSL false lash effect mascara over and my lashes have never looked so good!! Even my own mum asked me today if i was wearing false lashes because they looked so long and thick! I have really rated the YSL mascara highly for a while but these two together seem for some reason to be a winning combo!!
Also while im yabbering on for too long I keep meaning to thank you again for reconmending carbon eye shadow and blushbaby blush they are both incredible and particularly with blushbaby i never would have looked at that twice in the pan but it is amazing when applied!
7. Dao said, on August 11th, 2008:
Wow, they’re such great tips. My hat goes to you Karen! Today my eye look is exactly like that, blue smokey eyes. I guess we’re telepathic
How’s Tabs doing today. I heard he was reading my blog, good boy! Thanks for stopping by Karen and I hope you’ll turn that frown upside down soon.

You look great Karen! Love the eyes! Btw, is peachykeen similar to Margin?
9. Music_Is_Freedom said, on August 11th, 2008:
That look is gorgeous! I love the lipcolour Girl About Town (yet I still haven’t bought it), and it looks really nice toned down with the red liner and beige-y gloss. But I agree with you that the club face chart is one hella cool look; they really should have gone with that!
10. KK said, on August 11th, 2008:
That class sounds amazing! I am so jealous! Do you know if other department stores do these too? We are not lucky enough to have a Bloomies! ;(
Your eyes look so good!!
11. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Nosh,
Thank you.
I’m officially obsessed with both those shadow colors.
Pick anything new up from MAC lately?
12. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Jess,
Yup, it was from one class! There were two artists doing demonstrations, so maybe that’s why there were so many. I haven’t attended a Studio Talk like this at Macy’s, but a few years ago for Barbie Loves MAC I went to a seminar at Nordstrom. If you call your counter or stop by then they’ll be able to tell you if they host the classes.
13. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Tiera,
It’s great, isn’t it? It really keeps the shine away and never looks too heavy.
14. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Phoebe,
Thanks! I was pretty surprised at how it turned out because the lipstick was scary in the tube!
15. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Bgirldskco,
Yay! You better snap up Painterly (if you don’t already have it), Ricepaper and Brown Script ASAP. They are fab!
16. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Holly,
Oh great! I love it when the products I like work for others, too. Yay! You are now part of the Blushbaby cult, too.
Max Factor 2000 is a fab drugstore mascara. I’ve never tried layering it with another kind but you know me… I’ll do anything for big lashes. Will have to try this on my own. Hopefully it’ll work for me, too.
17. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Dao,
LOL, yes, he likes to read beauty blogs. He left shortly after 10:00 (things to do, places to go), but he managed to eat his fill of Friskies and relax. I wish he’d stay all day, because he’s safe here and I don’t have to worry about him being out and about.
Hope you had a nice day today.
18. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Aranya,
I think it’s less gold. I’ve tried Margin but it doesn’t read very well on my skin… I have the tan girl’s equivalent, Sunbasque, though, and Peachykeen is def. less gold.
19. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Music_Is_Freedom,
I know! I was really looking forward to the crazy green glitter and being pushed out of my comfort zone. Sigh, at least the blue smokey eye turned out okay.
I didn’t pick up Girl About Town but now I’m hemming and hawing over it. I like this lip look a lot, too.
20. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi KK,
Thanks! I’ve attended a MAC seminar at Nordies! Do you have one of those near you? You can always ask your counter, too, if they host these events.
21. Elena said, on August 11th, 2008:
Karen!
You look amazing! Peachykeen is my new favorite blush on you. Yes, please post a tutorial, especially regarding lashes. I’ve heard so many good things about Zoom Lash mascara, but when I tried it out on myself it looked horrible. I know everyone’s lashes are different, but I’d love to learn some tips to improve application.
Now I’m going to go put my make-up wipes in the fridge, lol. Thanks for the tips.
22. Janelle said, on August 11th, 2008:
Wow I’d love to attend a class like this! And you came out looking beautiful in the end.
Your blog is one of my fave reads. Keep ‘em coming!

23. Karen said, on August 11th, 2008:
Hi Elena,
It took me a while to get the Zoom Lash right. It comes with practice, eventually. Have you tried Mascara X? It’s actually really great!
I’d be happy to whip a tutorial. They usually take a while, though, so hopefully I’ll be able to get it up before the week’s end (crosses fingers).
LOL, the moment I got home I put mine in the fridge.
24. Roxy said, on August 11th, 2008:
that class sounds like so much fun! too bad we don’t have bloomingdales here =[ i wanted to ask what you thought of the blot powder, my t-zone is super oily and i wanted to try it out but i’m kind of skeptical because i haven’t seen any bloggers review this product!

You are rocking Girl About Town! It’s one of my very favourite lippies, but I have to be in the right frame of mind to go out wearing bright pink lips, y’know? Seeing it on you here has inspired me to wear it ASAP, though!
I hope you’re feeling chirpier today, love!

34. Tiffany said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hey Karen! Wow, thanks for all the great tips! I once attended a MAC class-type thing at Nordie’s, it was a blast.
If you do a tutorial I would definitely give this look a try. I haven’t yet mastered smokey eyes. It always ends up looking like one blob of color, instead of the different gradations.
Hope you’re feeling better today!
35. Elle said, on August 12th, 2008:
Thanks for all the tips, Karen! I love Blue Flame on you. That was one of my favorites out of Cool Heat and I even got a backup for it.
36. Glosslizard said, on August 12th, 2008:
You look fab, and what a gorgeous red coat! That class looks like a lot of fun!
37. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Thanks, Janelle!
38. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Roxy,
I like it a lot. I have it in medium-deep. I even wear it just by itself sometimes when I’m feeling extra lazy. It really keeps the shine away all day long.
39. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Mariah,
You’re welcome, girl! I know, I didn’t get the lip products and now I’m all lusty for Girl About Town! Agghhh!
40. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Thanks Beautymakeupdivas!
41. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Sophia,
I am way addicted to MAC, too. What are your faves?
42. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Heids,
Aww, thanks girl! I hope these tips come in handy… they sure helped me a ton, especially the bronzer tip.
I hope you guys get one of these sessions, soon. You never know!
43. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Chess,
I totally know what you mean. I passed that day on the shade but now I’ve got major hot pink lipstick lust! What do you pair yours with?
I’m feeling much better today, thanks for asking!
44. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Gio,
It was a blast. I hope you can go to one soon!
45. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Jaimie,
You’re welcome!
Even if they don’t have the Studio Talks, the seminars are also very fun and informative. I hope you get to go!
46. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Ping,
Yay! I’m glad these tips are helpful. What do you think of Dainty so far?
47. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Tania,
You are too cute! Yeah, I thought the same thing about the look. I was actually looking forward to some crazy glitter, but I guess this gives me another smokey eye option.
I don’t have Bang on Blue… *tears*
48. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Tiffany,
You’re welcome! Aren’t those classes really helpful and fun?
Yeah, smokey eyes are tough. I still don’t ever feel like mine turn out the way I want them to. I’d be happy to do a tutorial — I’ll work on it this week and try to have it up by the weekend or early next week.
49. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Elle,
You’re welcome, girl! I really like Blue Flame’s lil’ sparkles.
Cool Heat ended up being one of the “surprise” releases for me. You *can’t* have enough blue eyeshadow, apparently!
50. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Thanks, Glosslizard! That coat is Old Navy, baby! On sale!
51. kia said, on August 12th, 2008:
hope you are feeling much better! that’s an expert eye right there! for my usual crease i use soft brown, but i need brown script to complete the browns! also i LOVE bateaux lipglass.. so glad i got it! i need the right combo of lashes to double. for a dramatic look, two pairs of natural lashes just don’t cut it! LOL fun though

I really like the eye color combo. You look very pretty!
Rock on!

53. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Kia,
Thanks! I like Soft Brown in the crease, too. Brown Script is some good stuff, though, too. I am going to start wearing it with Painterly and Ricepaper for a simple, no-fuss work eye. Do you have Saddle?
I’m the fence with Bateaux. What do you like to pair it with?
54. Karen said, on August 12th, 2008:
Hi Marisol,
One was Jesus and the other MUA was Christine (or Christina?). They were both very bubbly, fun and full of great tips.
Do you have Brown Script? If you don’t ya better get it, girl!
55. Marisol said, on August 12th, 2008:
I don’t have that one. Is it comparable to Soft Brown?

Hiya Karen,
I just love ur site. I am a guy that loves to look her best. I have been reading up on all of ur posts. I am a huge MAC fan and always looking for fun cool looks. Living here in Las Vegas definately gives me opportunity to try them out. After reading ur post on the new invisible set, I went right put and got some. I do like that it is not as shiney. I also picked up some skin refine. I hope to see that it actually reduces pore size. Anyway, ty for such an informative site.
