If I wanted to use this for traveling, how many MAC eye shadows could I fit along with one MAC blush pan?

I don't have a ton of Mac, as I prefer Makeup Geek, but the pan size is the same. 5 eyeshadow pans easily along with 1 blush pan (again, my blush is MUG, not MAC)

I believe so...just remember to replace the plastic covers over the palettes before you travel.

Yes they fit the MAC pot shadows, much cheaper than than the actual Mac palettes. I have 4 of them and they are great, plus they come with empty magnetic tins and I've used them for melting lipsticks to make lip palettes too.

8 big and about 16 eye makeup brushes to travel with, but in each brush cup you can fit a whole lot more, I LOVE LOVE this brush cup I give it a five +++++

You could fit a few small brushes but it would be a tight squeeze to fit any brushes that are large. But I can fit the brushes it comes with plus some small eyeshadow brushes and a couple eyeliners.

I would say this would fit a light to medium skin tone best. If you are very fair or very dark, it would probably not be suitable. It's also a bit on the yellow side, so if you are very pink or want to correct overly yellow tones in your skin, it may also not be suitable.I am a MAC NW 15 and it's too dark for me.

IMHO :) the travel essential has one for handling the eyes quickly (the violet one), a flat one for liquid foundation and concealer, and a fluffy big one for anything powder. If you don't use concealer, then your foundation brush will be used with one product alone. Then the big fluffy one would be used for powder and blush. So I guess it would just take a bit of paying attention to not still have blush on it the second time you use it, otherwise the powdering may render something weird :). Basically with 3 brushes you can cover your whole face (the eyes one may be a bit too big for precision stuff, but you can work it just fine ). The 4 brush set allows you to have separate brushes for foundation, concealer, blush and powder. And not use the same one for two products. I guess you can choose based on - how often you clean them (I'd say clean them more often if you mix two products on one) - how much product you use (i just buff a bit of powder and often use the blush one in the Core collection for blush afterwards since I only put a bit on...then I give it a good wipe on a dry cotton or something, I wash it once a week) - if you care having the tiny concealer one You'd have 3 brushes not 4, with a bit fluffy one for powders, or you could have 4 brushes for liquid and powders and a wider range of use (the detailer one is quite small and stiff for the eyes so the choice is up to you) I'm going to stop here now :) whichever the choice may be, the fluffiness is the best payoff :) If I had 0 brushes, I'd pick the travel essentials to cover all areas better I guess.

One Blush/Bronzer Brush, One Eyelash/Brow comb, Two Different Sized Eye shadow Brushes ,Two Different Sized Eyeliner Brushes, One That Fits Inside A Mascara, (TIP- Ran Out Of Liquid Liner? Just Take The Smaller Brush, Dip It In VOILA!!) And One Blending Brush For Waterline Or shadow, They Are Travel Size-Medium So They Are Kinda Small But They Also Are A little Cheap..... One Of The Brushes Broke The first time i used it and they smell funky also they came like 2 months after i ordered it.... If You want good brushes for a good price than I would Go to a Burlington, Tj Maxx, Marshels, Ross ECT. Some type of those stores. If you have any more questions feel free to ask on my buisness email- Skillsducttape@gmail.com Thank You!! Overall 8/10

Yeah,don't we all! (Love Mac) but really these are just as good. Save your $ for splurging on the actual makeup you like. These have lasted me quite awhile and were actually recommended by a former Mac consultant saying the Mac brushes are very marked up in price!

I'm in the shade NC55 for MAC, and this works great for me, but it all depends on your undertone. I have yellow undertones in my inner face, and red undertones everywhere else, but I can use this as an all over. For yourself, I would try it out because I can use it on myself, and friends your shade, but again, be careful about your undertone. Undertone is everything, and can really mess up how powder/foundation looks on a person.

I'm fair, with green eyes, but go with warmer shade to blend my face and neckline. The 5 and 6 are my favorites. Cinema Secrets sells inexpensive small sample pots to try until you find your best shade. Enjoy! Little goes a long way!:)

I usually don't do combined shipping. How many blushes Will you be ordering?

The Wild Plum would probably have been what you're interested in if you're looking to use it just as a blush. It would be too much if you planned to do the entire face as I do with the original. I never knew they made a rose shade and I don't know if it's made any longer. Remember, a little DOES go a long way. It has to be applied with a light hand. The original is definitely in the orange family so don't but that one.

MAC shadows fit but not when I try to lay them flat. I have to insert them at an angle. The eyeshadow pigments fit perfectly though. I'm able to fit 10 traditional MAC shadows per row. I have nail polish on the top 3, and shadows on the bottom 2. So organized!

If I was to guess, it's about 9 in wide, 4 in deep, and 6 inches tall. I tried to put my flat iron (it's probably about 12 in.) in there and even turned it diagonally, but with that and my makeup in there it just wouldn't work. A small curling iron or travel sized one would work if you're trying to carry that and makeup. If it's just for hair stuff, you might be able to play Tetris and get your stuff to fit. :DAnd I agree, it really is a great little bag. I use it for makeup and brushes after I condensed down my big metal Caboodle and it definitely does the trick!

Absolutely- I use it for my mac and sephora brushes. For the small eye brushes ( and depending what shape the brush is) I double up eye brushes in the slimmer elasticated band to ensure that the brushes sit snugly inside the band.

Great question not sure if thus will help I have put my MAC, Loreal, and NXY lipstick in and still have wiggle room to spare!
