MAC Disney Venomous Villains! My Haul in Pictures and a Video Review/Swatches!...


I'm so glad I was able to make it to the MAC Venomous Villains collection early release party. Being a total Disney fan (and always kind of having an obsession with the villains) I went for the idea of the collection... not for the actual products. I know, shame on me. But I ended up leaving with quite a bit and finding some great things! Here are pictures of what I purchased. Be sure to check out my video as well (posted below) for more in-depth info, swatches, etc. Enjoy!

This collection was split between four Disney Villains: Maleficent, The Evil Queen, Cruella De-Vil, and Dr. Facilier. I didn't purchase every item from the collection. These are just the items that stood out to me.

...Yeah, so Dr. Facilier got no love from me. Had all the pigments, wasn't in to the "magic"-cooling-bronze loose powders. Those sound like a disaster waiting to happen with me. I was thinking about getting the Lipgelee with his full-body image plastered all over it, but I didn't want to buy it just to buy it...haha. Serious question though.... Where was Ursula and Jafar?? He wore eyeliner right? ...and Ursula liked her lipstick.

New Official Facebook Fan Page!

**If you have a facebook account, like my page by clicking below and you can keep up with new videos, posts, discussions, and communicate with me through the Fan Page! I'm excited! See you all there! :)

Hey everyone! So I finally decided to start up an official MakeupByTiffanyD Facebook Fan Page. I've had an older, personal facebook account for years, but it's just for keeping in touch with personal friends and family. I've often thought about accepting all of your friend requests I get on that account and just combining the two, but I wanted to make sure that none of the messages and posts from my family and friends got mixed up with your posts and messages. So creating a brand new, separate fan page was the best option. :) Now I can easily communicate with everyone!
