May 15th, 2009 by Karen 299 Comments

The giveaway is closed now, and I’m contacting the winners by e-mail. Good luck!

Aloha, girls! Did you know that Hawaii is the only US state in which coffee is grown?

El Hub and I are really looking forward to seeing our family. My in-laws live in a town called Kaneohe on the Eastern side of the island of Oahu. It’s the wetter side of the island than the South side where Waikiki Beach and Pearl Harbor are, but that makes it lush and fragrant.

Over the next 10 days, we have A LOT of great guest posts lined up, 10 days of giveaways, and I have a few other surprises in store, too. 🙂

Now, for this morning’s giveaway…

The prize

mac-trip-classic-eye-and-cheek

Today’s giveaway takes YOU on a trip — a MAC Trip!

One lucky lady will win the MAC Trip 4 Classic Eye and Cheek Palette ($30). This rare, hard-to-find travel exclusive palette features Sweetness Beauty Powder Blush (a clean pink), Lightfully Eyeshadow (a pale icy pink with silvery pearl), Idol Eyes Eyeshadow (an icy gray violet with golden pearl) and Print Eyeshadow (a muted gray).

How to enter

To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment in the comments section below telling me the name of one MAC product that’s great to have with you on trips.

I always bring my MAC 266 brush, holla!

I’ll pick the winner at random from among the people who enter by 11:59PM PST tonight (Friday).

Maika’i pomaika’i, beauties!

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    Waah just one?! Okay if my life and/or the happiness of my travelling partner (my dear isaac) depended on it, I would have to bring Love Connection mineralized duo with me. It’s light and always turns out pretty. Plus I can use my fingers to apply so it’s basically perfect!

    Have fun in Hawaii!

    I finally bought a MAC product — Brow Set in Girl Boy — and I will never leave home without it!!! I have red hair but my eyebrows bleach white-blond the minute the sun hits them, and BS makes me look like a human being again.

    But I want to win this to give it to my SO’s DIL. She just moved here from Romania and I’d like to help her start a makeup collection. These colors won’t work on me but would look stunning on her.

    I am mostly a drugstore cosmetic girl but I did cave in and got 2 MAC products – I have one tube of the new Viva Glam I V which is a dusky pink that I feel is perfect for my skin tone. I also have the MAC Just a Pinch Gel Blush – which I love. Between these two, I would take my Viva Glam I V if I could only take one of them on vacation (id love to take both, mind you!) — I feel like a good lipcolor pulls the sunkissed, healthy look that a vacation gives. I wont need cheek color – my cheeks will be kissed by the sun! The pinkish lipstick will just pull that look together and im pretty confident I will glow!

    Truthfully, I don’t own any MAC products because I just recently had an interest in cosmetics. Surely, MAC has a lot of products and they are quite pricey too. I’m trying to look into it more to see which would match me and suit me more before I order (since the only way for me to order is thru the MAC website).

    I bring my MAC holiday pallet with me everytime I travel. The brown is great for day looks and the gray side works for night. I love my browns esp since it’s not too dramatic for touristy things like hiking and walking around a bunch.
    It’ll be with me when I go to Puerto Rico soon, hayyy!

    Normally I would say my Studio Fix Powder Foundation, but I take MAC’s Flammable Paint everywhere I go. It works as my blush and lip colour; and, when my eyes are looking tired, I add a very tiny amount to the center of my lids (too much and they’ll look red and haggard). Its the perfect brown girl multitasker.

    I’ve JUST gotten into MAC stuff . . . I’d probably take my Face and Body Foundation because I love the coverage and how it’s buildable. The MAC stuff I have now is professional, which is not a required look for vacation 🙂

    Hm . . . or I might follow Vampy Varnish’s lead and take my Omega shadow for my eyebrows, and use a tinted moisturizer 🙂

    Karen….I think that you should take every product that you own, in Mac, because you are bound to need them while on vacation. You never know what you will be wearing and what you feel like on any given day or evening so I say take it all, you cannot go wrong.

    My son and soon to be daughter-in law will be going to Hawaii next week and I am so jealous. Have a safe and wonderful time.

    I also want to tell you how very much I enjoy your makeup blogs. I am 49 years old and still love makeup and really look forward to hearing everything that you have to say. Thanks again and have a beautiful vacation.

This slim, but mighty pencil gives me the perfect brow in the perfect color, and it’s my secret that there’s only half an overtweezed brow on each side.

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
