by 554 Comments

  • UPDATE: Apr. 8, 2010. The giveaway is closed. Congrats to the winner, DoDe! 🙂

It never hurts to be prepared … for the application of color! 🙂 MAC’s new six-piece Prep for Colour collection is all about turning skin into a perfectly primed canvas for color, and it skips onto counters this Thursday, April 8.

With just three neutral eyeshadows, one bright fuchsia gloss, a skin brightening serum and a new sunscreen, the collection might not be as extensive or exciting as last week’s Art Supplies, but MAC still tossed some interesting stuff our way. And girls (and boys) who love everyday makeup and skincare products — that is, products you might like to wear every single day — are also in luck.

Which reminds me, are you ready for a giveaway?

The prize

One lucky lady will win three items from the MAC Prep For Colour collection: Eyeshadow in Sorcery (a reddish mid-tone brown), Eyeshadow in Hey (a warm mid-tone beige) and Prep + Prime Skin Brightening Serum. Total prize value: $69.

    Reply

  2. I would also have to say blue because there are soo many different pretty shades of it and it looks good on pretty much everyone.

  6. I always switch between blue and purple. I’ve been favoring purple lately. I just think it’s really pretty!

    Reply

  8. Mine is a tie between pink and blue – mainly because they remind me of boy & girl babies, and they’re always new and exciting!

    (My best friend is pregnant again, so I have babies on the brain!)

    Reply

  12. As of lately I’ve really been attracted to picks and corals, which is a change from the usual blues and teals. 🙂

    Reply

  15. My favorite color is purple–it is created from a strong warm color (red) and a strong cool color (blue), so it is at once striking and soothing, mysterious and delicate, and noble and spiritual. Gotta love that 🙂

    Reply

  16. Turquoise and lime green- they remind me of the ocean, my favorite place. And they’re just so pretty! 🙂

    Reply

  19. I love pink, because it’s such a girly and happy color! Plus there are so many different shades of it and all of them look gorgeous! I don’t know.. I just always have the tendency to pick something pink 🙂

    Reply

  20. Teal is definitely my favorite and go to color when it comes to eyeshadow and clothing. It’s lovely to look at but it still brightens up any look (in my humble opinion anyway).

    Reply

  23. My favorite color is green because it reminds me of the peace found in nature. I know that nature can be deadly sometime, but walking and just being outside calms me down if I am irritated.

    Reply

  25. I love purples, mostly dark plums. I like the dark shades because I’m just very into that deep dark mysterious maybe even creepy side to things. The Victorian and vampire style with all those deep reds and burgundies. I really like coral coloured blushes as well, they suit my skintone better then pinks.

    Reply

  28. Green and purple! Purple because it can be anything from sweet and innocent lavender to sexy and inviting plum. Green because it reminds me of freshness and the earth.

    Reply

  35. Green is my favourite colour hands down! Its such a lush colour and it reminds me of nature and things starting to grow! Its a bright, fresh colour (and its the colour of money! I don’t think I needed to mention that…) Plus, as a redhead, gurrrllll is it ever hard to find colours to wear. Green is my go-to!

    Reply

  36. My favorite color is green. I have no idea why, though. I really don’t like the outdoors all that much! : ) It has gotten to the point where my fiance stops me from buying green things when we are out shopping because he thinks I have too much green clothing and accessories!

    Reply

  39. My favorite color is purple because it’s fresh and reminds me of spring. Plus, it’s one of those colors that can flatter any skin tone!

    Reply

  40. My favorite color is green – to me its the color of renewal. Its also calming and soothing – and reminds me of nature.

    Reply

  44. Definitely green. I’m a really stressed person, but green always seems to calm me down. That’s why I got my laptop in spring green 🙂 🙂

    Reply

  49. Purple, definitely! Especially deep plummy shades. I’m a sucker for anything plum. It’s a calming shade for me that looks good with my fair skin!

    Reply

  50. I love so many colours, as it is really dependent on my mood for example. However, I have a special place in my heart for yellow (a bright, sunny yellow, not neon…). It always warms me up!

    Reply

  56. i love earthy greens! because they look so good with my skintone hehe and they’re so pretty! aaaaand… my crush has beautiful green eyes LOL

  58. I love blue/greens or teals – reminds me of the ocean or tropics – it is soothing but hot at the same time.

    Reply

  59. I’m gonna get specific and use a MAC color here–Haux (eyeshadow) is my favorite! The first time I EVER got my makeup done professionally was in th 10th grade at a MAC store, and that’s one of the colors they used on me. Though it’s over ten years later and I’m now a certified beauty addict who has tried countless colors over the years, Haux is still my favorite go-to shade.

  62. Purple although it used to be blue, it just changed over the past 2 years. Can’t explain why its my favorite im just attracted to it : )

    Reply

  63. My favorite color changes daily…it’s based on what I see and what inspires me that day! Today…it’s emerald green to match the hills out my office window. Tomorrow…blue if these clouds ever go away!

    Reply

  64. Pink because it makes the boys wink 😉
    I do love pink though, because my room is pink and stepping into my room after a long day always makes me happy 😀

    Reply

  65. my favorite colour changes every few months…but my current obsession is lime green. its such a fun colour that you don’t see everywhere, so i like that its rare, energizing and cheerful.

    Reply

  81. I don’t know if you would consider black a color, but I like it. As far as clothes, it’s my favorite because it’s easy to pick and to coordinate with other colors.

  83. PURPLE! As far back as I can recall, purple has always been my favorite color. It draws me in and gives me inspiration 🙂 Its the only color I know how to “make”, mixing red and blue! Wikipedia says its the color of royalty; no wonder its my favorite! :p

    Reply

  92. I love jewel colours. Emerald green, sapphire blue, amethyst purple and sparkling ruby red.

    But if I had to pick just one, I’d go for red. I’m a complete sucker for reds. They need more skill to pull off than most other colours, but they’re so worth it. Ruby all the way.

    Reply

  93. Thanks for the giveaway. My favorite color is yellow because i loved how it can brighten your whole day when you wear it.

    Reply

  96. Orange — because it’s a cheerful vibrant color, and I think of it being really quirky — all traits I possess as well. 🙂

    Reply

  99. I’ve loved orange for as long as I can remember because, for some reason, it reminds me of summer vacation. Like, staying up until the wee hours of the night, tanning, spending days on the pool deck and at the local ice cream stand and nights roasting marshmallows and playing tag until late at night with friends 🙂

    Reply

  101. I adore pretty pastels and my favorite would be lilac because it’s so dainty. I love so many colours but lilac has the warmth of a pink and the frostyness of a blue, while being absolutely sumptuous. DROP-DEAD GORGEOUS!

    Reply

  105. my favorite color is a teal, or a soft mix between medium light blue & green. its just serene & peaceful, not to mention beautiful. specially in eye shadow 😉

    Reply

  107. I love gray!! I know it’s not exactly bright but I think it can be a really rich shade and I appreciate that it’s unconventionally beautiful.

    Hope I win!

    Reply

  108. I really love the color coral…I don’t know, its warm and cozy yet fashionable. It’s just a really nice color 🙂 I do love blues and greens too.

    Reply

  111. hmmm… GOLD! Gold in a classy, warm way that brings out the warmth in my brown eyes. and also the gold that i will never get my hands on ahha

    Reply

  116. There’s a rich, indescribable blue that I can only say I’ve ever seen in the graduated values of blue as Crater Lake gets deeper. A sky blue and cerulean at the edges, dropping deeply into indigo, royal ink blue. It’s so purely… BLUE. It’s really the most breathtaking hue I’ve ever seen, and I’ve only seen it once- but I can’t forget it.

    Reply

  117. My favorite color is pink… who doesn’t love pink?!?! You know what makes regular pink even better? Sparkly pink!

    Reply

  120. Dark green. I didn’t realize how much I loved green until a couple of years ago when I was on a train looking at evergreens in the snow on a mountain and noticed that half the things with me and on me were pretty much the same color. Hunt, emerald, kelly… all up my alley. Its a wonderful alternative to the sea of blue you often find in your closet too.

    Reply

  124. My favorite color is green, it’s just very peaceful and pretty to me. I painted my room green so it’s the first thing I see in the morning 😀 also I retweeted the message

    Reply

  126. My favorite color is green! It flatters my olive skin and dark brown eyes. But I love it because I can always find a shade to suit my mood, from earthy olive greens to deep forest greens to bright yellow-greens. It’s something that’s found in every season and is just so versatile and constant.

    Reply

  127. PLEASE pick MEEE! my favorite color is PURPLE! aka one of the colors I’ve chosen for my wedding 😀 it’s been my favorite since I was in preschool, when I was known as “the purple lady” 🙂

    The reason is kind of vain. I love the color because I look AWESOME in that color(;

    Reply

  138. My favorite color is blue probably because there are so many variations of it that look so pretty. 🙂 My favorite of the blues currently is the lovely spring sky blue.

  142. Aubergine! It’s a perfect deep plum/eggplant color, and looks amazing on anyone whether it’s a rockin’ nail polish or a sweep of color on your eyes.

    Reply

  157. Actually, to be honest, I go through stages where I am in loveee with different colours. Currently, purple is my new obsession. =D It is absolutely gorgeous and goes well with many other colours. It also looks amazing on nails! However, i am starting to find myself purchasing various grey shades of nail polish…and definately loving it!.. so.. that just might be my next colour obsession!!

    Reply

  159. I tried to deny it for years, but my favorite color is… PINK! It’s so pretty, girly, and fun! MAC makeup lets me work it on the eyes too. =)

    Reply

  160. I love purple (It seems to be popular choice, lol) especially Lilac & Lavender, because those are my favorite flowers. 🙂

    Reply

  163. Purple without a doubt, it’s royal, it’s different, it pops. It says something about individuality and being bold. =)

    Reply

    • I forgot the why! Because it reminds me of Caesar’s robes and royalty and looks vibrant and very few shades of it look bad on me. 😀

      Reply

  165. I like most colors, and what I really like varies depending on my mood, but my overall favorite color is blue!

    Reply

  181. Favorite color, favorite color…
    When I was a kid and someone asked me this, I said RAINBOW 🙂
    When I was a teenager and someone asked me this, I said CLEAR, because you can see every color through it. Lol.

    Reply

  196. Definitely purple. Love the variations of it–from a soft, sweet lavender to a deep, royal purple. Oh, and it complements my eye colour–which is green. Thanks for the giveaway Karen!

    Reply

  199. I love coral – it makes me think of summertime as a kid, making lemonade stands, it is gorgeous for my complexion, and coral is a sexy, fun, feminine colour that is rich so it doesnt make you look trashy! Long live the coral!

    Reply

  204. I have a bunch of favorite colors. They vary from bolds to subtle, pastel to glitters, etc. I especially love the range of pinks the spectrum of light can give off. One pink that definately stands out to be would be a magenta pink.

    Reply

  206. I adore yellow. It’s the color of sunshine, the first spring flowers, and the hue of my favorite childhood pet (his name was Moe and he was a cockatiel 🙂 The slightest hint of yellow always perks me up when I’m having a rough day.

    Reply

  207. I would have to say that my favorite color is a tie between Sky Blue and Dodger Blue. sky blue because I spend a great deal looking up at the sky and dodger blue because i love the LA Dodgers. Lol

  214. Sunny Warm Yellow is my favorite color! It makes me happy and i start to remember summer time fun and funny jokes or situations.

    My favorite color is purple. Always has been. It just makes me happy!!

    Reply

  223. My favorite color has to be blue. Anytime I try on clothes, I always reach for anything in the blue family. My eyes are blue; I think that’s why I love that color. I even like blue eyeshadow! (dark blue e/s, that is;))

    Reply

  230. to wear on my face? Coral! It’s uber flattering, youthful, and fresh.
    but my favorite color in art is probably teal! It’s got a lot of dimension and there are so many different shades.

    Reply

  231. I’m a fan of red. I love it! Dont wear too much of it though cos my hair is red and it clashes! So I wear green instead which is just as good 😀
    Though I love all colours – being an artist you can’t pick just one.

  234. Blue is my favourite by far! I’d say about 70% of my clothes (and everything else! :P) are blue! I don’t know why exactly.. I guess it’s cos to me, blue is calming and easy on the eyes. I don’t like to look too girly!

    Reply

  237. My favorite color is purple because i love wearing the color in my makeup, in my clothes, in my shoes.. it’s just a perfect shade that makes me feel BEAUTIFUL!! =)

    Reply

  238. ONE? Oh no! Uh… blue because it calms me. I am a Taurus, an Earth sign, and water complements earth perfectly.

    Reply

  239. My favorite color has to be lavender. It’s kind of a cross between pink and purple without being too much of both, that’s why I love it so much!

    Reply

  240. right now i’m into super vibrant yellows and acid green, but i think that that is mostly because those are the two newest eyeshadows i picked up. yay!

    Reply

  241. It’s hard for me to separate thoughts of color from housepainting (!), and the color I most want to be surrounded by is gray. There are so many different shades and all of them provide such different moods, AND you can decorate with any kind and color of furniture with gray as the backdrop. The same goes for art and the ever-popular B&W photos of family and friends.

    Reply

  243. Who knew so many people love purple, lol?? My favorite color is navy blue, because it looks crisp, clean and nautical. I love anything that makes me think about the beach and the sea!

    Reply

  246. Grey is my fav color even if it’s the lack of color, because it’s always stylish (specially in the charcoal range of the spectrum) and less sombre than black!

    Reply

  247. My favorite color tends to change a lot, just because I love colors all around! but my most favorite color recently has been a plum color! <3

    Reply

  248. So hard to choose. Red makes me feel bold. Pink satisfies my frivolous side. It’s hard for me to find the right greens and oranges to wear, but I associate those colors with nature, spirituality and the eccentric. Every once in a while, I see a dark, metallic charcoal gray, and that makes me happy. I’ll say my favorite color is rainbow.

    Reply

  250. a grayish-blue. This is going to sound silly, but it’s because my grandmother and I both had grayish-blue eyes. She passed away two years ago but every time I look in the mirror I see a bit of her.

    Reply

  251. My all-time fav color is PINK!! so girly and feminine and also the color of the course which I always support, breast cancer awareness. Hence my blog is also pink themed, and related colors.

    I do like other colors as well…but my FAV is still PINK!

    P.s. I swatched Hey at the store and it’s absolutely gorgeous as a base color or highlighter!! Please, please…..let me win… 😉

  252. My favorite color is black because it can evoke strong emotions too much can be overwhelming. A classic color for clothing possibly because it makes the wearer appear thinner and more sophisticated.

    Reply

  253. Seafoam! It simply reminds me of my grandmother and I adore her soo much. I always think of here when I find something new for my home in that color. If not seafoam then baby pink. My kitchen and makeup box is full of that lovely hue.

  254. I love bright red, is the color that is bright and standout under any color( well except for brown). Red is hot!!!

  309. Hi, I just stumbled upon your page and will be visiting more often =)
    My favorite color would be shades of purple. I honestly don’t know why I like the color, just one day I looked around my bedroom + bathroom and noticed everything I pick (including clothes) are purple/purplish colors =P

  311. i can’t choose just 1 fav. color but i can choose 3 maybe 🙂 one shades of purple, shades of gray and shades of gold.

    but i love a lot of colors and most of the time i have trouble deciding on what clothes to wear or what kind of makeup to wear. so, i decided to make a color theme for every week. first, i choose my nail polish for the week and then i declare that color ‘color of the week’ 🙂 i match my clothes/accessories and makeup to my color of the week 🙂

  316. My all time favorite colors had got to be purple!…I remember being young and in school and everyones favorite color was either red or blue. In 3rd grade they enlightened us with the primary & secondary colors and when they put the red & blue together I wad fascinated in awe…from then on purple has been my favorite color it doesn’t matter if it’s a dark medium or light shade I love anything purple…and I recently learned that purple eyeliner makes my brown eyes pop which automatically makes me love purple even more

I love purple so much that anyone who has been around me for more than 10 minutes knows that my favorite color is purple, Even my coworkers groan at any mention I make of it..or what I bought in the color. It has always been my color from since I was young and enthralled with my crayons.

I have blue eyes, and when I still lived back home in Europe, as a kid, all the grandma’s in the neighbourhood used to say I have the bluest of blue eyes, and I need to find me a boy who has just as blue or even bluer eyes! As cheesy as it may sound, I believed that, and it became my own little ferry tale! 🙂 And two years ago, my ferry tale became reality hehe

  399. green! I adore all but the preppy-ish kelly green or a dated 80’s forest. Why? firstly, my eyes become whatever color that I put near them, and I’m a redhead, so green eyes look great on me. Also, green is the color of life, and it makes me happy and hopeful to see green all around me. I’m wearing sage green socks, spring green Chucks, olive green t shirt, and dark olive hoodie right now!!

  408. My favorite color is like a mix between turquoise and a sea green. I don’t think it has an official name, or maybe it does and I just don’t know it. It’s the most amazing color and I don’t see it around very often. It’s like a blue color with a greenish undertone, but it’s not one color more than another, it’s just the perfect blend of the two.

    But that’s too complicated to explain to some people so I usually just go with something simple, like purple.

  416. Red! I went throguh a phase where I was literally afraid to wear red–I thought it was too strong and I only wore “quiet” neutral colors. Now, it’s my go-to color! I have about a dozen shades of red lipstick and 50 pairs of red shoes! And, just a quick didya know–blue-based red lipsticks make teeth look whiter–even more reason for me to LOVE it!

  422. my favourite colour is blue ( but yellow is a close second). When I was a kid, I used to love the color blue so much, I decided to have one day of blue – where everything I did had to do with blue. The food I ate, what I wore etc had to be blue. So for a whole day, I would eat things like blue ice cream, drink blue koolaid, blue mac and cheese and blue milk (using food colouring of course).

It looks great on all skin types and hair colours. I love to wear teal nailpolish on my toes-its so fresh, fun and flirty. Sometimes when I want to be risky, I put on some teal eyeliner and it really brings out my brown eyes. I love to wear my H&M teal tee with some dark skinny jeans and flats. I feel my best when I’m wearing teal- its refreshing =)
