Whole concept of getting free makeup absolutely fascinates me. Now, most of the time I am perfectly aware that nothing is ever actually free but regardless it still makes me jump from joy!
I will be totally honest and confess that one of the main reasons I buy MAC makeup is their Back to MAC recycling policy. In case you were not aware, if you collect 6 empty MAC containers and bring them back to the store you can choose a free lipstick or an eyeshadow. Isn't that just lovely?!

After months and months of hard work and slapping MAC makeup on my face religiously, I have accomplished my goal and collected enough for a free item!!!
As you can see I have successfully finished 2 clear brow gels (love it and will continue repurchasing!), 3 lipsticks (Impassioned, Lovelorn and Peach Blossom - Lovelorn being my favourite!!!) and one blush (Bareness was hands down hardest to finish and I think this is the first ever blush I have completely used up! I did on my many occasions have clown cheeks and reapplied my lipstick too much but goal had to be accomplished!
After a long deliberation I have decided I wanted a lipstick instead of an eyeshadow. Choice of narrowing down to one lipstick proved almost impossible, however, I have settled for this beauty!
Meet my new love - Pink Pigeon! An absolutely stunning vibrant pink! It is a very wearable shade if you appreciate more vibrant colours and it is equally stunning in the summer and the winter!
If you are not comfortable with bright colours you can sheer it out and wear it as a stain.
Have you ever Back to MAC-ed? What was your pick?
