I am repeatedly asked why I don't feature upcoming MAC collections or reviews of collections or pictures of limited edition collections.
I thought I'd just spend 5 minutes letting you know why!
Basically, there are so many blogs out there doing that already that I really don't feel like as though we need another! Besides, I think there are very few who could beat Temptalia for upcoming collections, product pictures, swatches and reviews!
There are a couple of other reasons why I don't feature collections as well. That might change if I happened to be near a MAC when there was a new collection out and I'd bought a few things. In that case I'd show pictures and swatches of what I did buy.
I'm no where near a MAC. At all. It takes quite a bit of travelling, there isn't one in my entire county. I think the nearest is about 70 miles away. I'm aware that I could order from the website, but that gives me huge delivery issues (including my work address being in an industrial area so not a valid delivery address, grrr) so I rarely bother.
Also, collections in the UK are so far behind the US. You lot in the US are already over Hello Kitty and Sugarsweet and looking to the next one. Sugarsweet isn't even out for another 2 weeks. So by the time I've got round to buying stuff for the collection and showing it, it's old news.
Besides, I don't have the money to keep up with MAC collections.
besides I have had enough of MAC MAC MAC MAC MAC
ReplyDeletenot everyone has a lot of money to go but expensive makeup!
I love that you show a wide variety of prices and brands
keep it up!
yes, that is so true! im sick of MAC too.
ReplyDeletefor a young teen like me, my pocket money isnt enough for mac.
its amazing, how many brands you have introduced me too!
GO, Shespace etc..
Keep it up!
Please dont turn into them MAC clones.
I love reading about different products anyway, and I find it really refreshing to read about stuff other than MAC - You have introduced me to several new brands including Sleek, and while I am partial to my MAC, I love to know there are alternative brands that can provide us with decent quality products for much better value than MAC.

ReplyDeleteThankyou everyone! I'm glad to hear your opinion on the matter :)
ReplyDeleteI hardly ever buy MAC. It is quite expensive and really I hardly find the collections interesting. Granted there will be a few that I want but not all MAC stuff is to die for.
ReplyDeleteJust recently I bought their studio fix foundation and it feels really heavy on me. And mineral makeup doesn't give me the coverage that I need. So that was a bust.
If it wasn't for you on YT I would have never found TSS!! :D
Thank You & Thank You for not using MAC products in your videos.I get so sick of hearing Mac this and that,oh apply this MAC shadow and this MAC mascara and this MAC Blush and this MAC lipstick.
ReplyDeleteYour one of the few Guru's that know that not all people watching have an extra $300 dollars with them to buy MAC products.So yeah, thanks for your videos:)
@Anonymous - while I do use MAC in videos, I'm just as likely to include an eye shadow or blusher in the same video that cost me £3.00! I'm certainly not exclusive to MAC like some I won't name.
