MAC Hey, Sailor!! Haul and overview

High-light Powder: Crew

                     I went to the Hey, Sailor unveiling event last night at MAC! I had a blast!! The hors d'oeuvres were cute with sea themes, the drinks looked yummy and lagoon colored! There was a tap dancer and sailor boys doing tattoos!  I wanted to share a few pictures of products and some of the event!! I will have a video up by this afternoon showing everything I got!! My Best friend and I arrived at 7pm... Thank goodness it had stopped raining by then, cause there was a sizable line at the door! As we entered, the tap dancer started her thing... See looked just like the visual except she was a blonde!! All the staff was decked(haa haa no pun intended) out in cute sailor hats, gold accents, and vintage looking skirts!  Music was blasting and everyone was testing, swatching, eating, getting tattooed, and having a good time!! Full reviews of these newbies will be out within the week!! This MAC collection comes out in the USA on May 24th!!  Here are the goodies I picked up!! Enjoy!

MAC's Hey Sailor Unveiling party!!

On May 15th I am heading out for some makeup and partying at a local MAC store for the Hey Sailor collection Unveiling party!! The US launch date is May 24th... the collection will be show and sold at the Unveiling party and then packed back up until the 24th!  I love these parties!! A ton of MAC artist friends will be there... talking up the collection and just being friendly and fun!!  Most of the time there is no makeup applications done, but you'll get to swatch the colors, quickly try on a gloss I'm sure, and also pick up any regular products you might need!  At past parties... a blank paper with a list of the collection is given out...where u can check off which products you want!  Then once you've check off your item(sssssss) give it to one of the artist there and they can pull your stuff for you!


To see if your local MAC store is having an event call or check MAC Cosmetics website... Look toward the bottom of the menu bar (Find a Store or an Event).  When you do find an event by you... make sure you call!! Most stores do a staggered entry times...starting 3 to 4 hours before reg closing times depending on the location. And there is a limit to the amount of people!!

Now if you need all the details please check out Temptalia. Christine did her usually wonderful info spread on this collection!! So please check out her blog her for the run down on the colors and prices!  I have seen the collection in person already and I have to say... I am excited!!! The colors are prefect for this time of year and into the summer season! I don't even want to talk about the packaging!! Hey! if you can't wait to the US launch date... this collection is out in Europe already... so if you have a friend....

SIDE NOTE:

Here is a thought for all you who want to be a MAC artist. At the Unveiling parties Store Management, Trainers, and District Management ARE present! Dress your best(not necessary in all black!!) Talk to a lot of the artist and introduce yourself. NOTE: This is not a time to tell them your resume... but just be charming and note worthy.  Also come back to the location within a week or so if you are looking for a MAC career. Dropping off a clean resume and if possible portfolio!  Good Luck.
