I have been dreading this moment for years.  I have been putting off going to the MAC Pro store for fear I would get too excited and spend money I don't have!  Yes, it is possible to spend money you don't have! 
Last Tuesday, since public transportation was free, I decided to make the trip to MAC Pro on St Denis Street.  I thought it would be bigger than that! It was a teeny tiny bit of a place.  I wasn't impressed at all.  I figured I'd do my Back 2 MAC and head out.  I said to myself chillax gurl!  I took my time and started looking around.  Let me tell you, they are right when they say that the MAC Pro products are more pigmented.  Me, being the person that I am, I marched straight to the bright colors.  I've always wanted to see Azalea, OH MY!! This baby is bright and beautiful!  Azalea is this bright fuschia/magenta/reddish pink color that a brown sugar MUST have if you are not afraid of some colors on your cheeks.  A little big goes a long way on my fat cheeks I'm telling you!  There was also Rhubbard, I wonder if I should get that as well because it's slightly more tamed and on the plummer side of Azalea.  I found out that was it discontinued, so I HAVE to get it soon.  What I actually got - because it was the only thing on stock in a "case" - was Devil.  Talk about beautiful bright intense orange color! OH MY!!! I said that already didn't I? That's how mesmerized I was by Azalea and Devil... Rhubbard too! 
So I decided that I would get them aside from my 2 shadows for my back 2 MAC.  Oh, what did I choose? I don't remember! LOL.. I had to go look at the empty boxes.  I got Gorgeous Gold, Atlantic Blue which is a very beautiful violet blue color and it's not the same as Violet Trance though, Plumage.  I wanted to get Naval or Prussian instead of Plumage but I figured with Plumage I'm killing two birds (green and blue dark matte color) with one stone.
Now I'm thinking of going back soon to get a palette for my blushes.  At first, I didn't think that was necessary since most of my blushes are mineralized.  Now it seems that I have an equal number of mineralized and regular blushes.  Getting Azalea and Rhubbard will make it 6 regular blushes; therefore, I'll have enough to fill a palette.   No rush though.
Enough rambling!
