MAC pro conceal and correct palette

My new MAC pro conceal and correct palette in Medium and my MAC 195  concealer brush.
I love how stylish this palette is with a magnetic closing mechanism  which personally I think is great. The MAC 195 concealer brush is so soft and is a great shape to apply the conceal to the face. I decided not to purchase a blending brush due to me using a sponge instead. 

From left to right -
NC30, NW25, NC35, NW35, Mid-Yellow, Mid-Peach.
This has a creamy texture to it when applying. They can be used for all types of areas for your skin and even to make the perfect match to wear instead of foundation. I can not wait to test these out on my face!!

This palette was advised by a MAC makeup artist to use this way-

Use the Mid-Peach on any darkness around the eye area and apply before using the NW25 concealer.

When applying concealers around the eye I sometimes warm the product on my finger tips before applying to the eye area.

I then use the Mid Yellow to conceal any redness and apply before foundation.

 The NC30 and the NC35 shades are brill for any blemishes you may get on the face.

I preferred to use it differently-

I applied my No7 foundation to my face using my sponge. I then used my MAC concealer brush to apply concealer from my MAC palette. I applied NC30 around my eye area and beside my noes and blended with my finger. I then went over this with NW25 just to colour match with my foundation. I used NC35 on my veins which appear on my cheeks :( and on any blemishes I have, same again I just blended with my finger. I use mid-yellow bellow my eyes on top of my cheek bones to make them contour. I am very different when it comes to adding darker shades to my cheek bones. I add it around the apple of my cheek bones and just bellow, this adds depth for when your not smiling. I blend this using my sponge.

And that is how I use the MAC pro conceal and correct palette in Medium
