My Surprise MAC Birthday Gifts

Hey Everyone!

I don't know about you- but for me, getting a parcel through the door is up there with Christmas morning. Therefore, as you may imagine- when I had a knock at the door a few weeks ago and the postman handed me a big black box- I was screaming with excitement (in my head of course- wouldn't want to scare him).

This is a bit of a random post as it consists mainly of photographs but I thought I'd share the experience with you step by step. Also, a hugeeeee thank you to my cousin for sending me these amazing goodies for my birthday.
brown parcel opened with black tissue paper surrounding a black ribboned box reading white 'MAC
Sleek black rectangular box reading 'MAC' in white in middle
opened MAC gift box with round highlighter and lipstick box inside
round black tub with gold/cream shimmery powder inside
hot pink lipstick with silver and black packaging
I am so impressed with how MAC package their gifts- it was the biggest treat ever unwrapping it. And of course it goes without saying my cousin picked the two most amazing items (which I have been lusting after for ages!!)- MSF in Soft and Gentle and Girl About Town lipstick. I feel like squealing just writing it!

Have you purchased anything from MAC lately? Would you like to see a review of any of these?
