S is for Stuff. C is for China. And it makes no sense!

Wooooh, I had STUFF day today :D It means that I got lots of STUFF :D

First of all, my SMH order arrived, and I got my custom 15 pan palette AND my 28 neutral pan palette.

Also, my ex-husband came from China, and he brought me bunch of stuff, including 100% FAKE MAC eyeshadows, 2 wigs, hair accessories, 2 cheap eyeshadows palettes, glitter palette, mini tophats, jewelry... :D

But anyway, I'll get back to the china stuff later, now the SMH order.

So, I have really bad collection of neutrals, since I rarely use any. But I've noticed lately, that it would be useful to own some neutrals too.
So the 28 pan neutral palette was my choise.

It's cheap, and it has a good selection of different shades, as you can see:

I really was suprised how big the palette was! Lately I've been used to be suprised how SMALL the palettes are, but this is really big. It's about 11 inches from corner to corner, about the size of a netbook :D

Anyway, I did some quick swatching with the colors, and I was pleased with the quality. I guess many of them are really dupable, but I'm not really planning to buy dupes for these.

Anyway, I think it's a great add to my collection.

And here are the swatches, started from right, going to left:

And the are the three last colums:

Then of course my new SMH baby came too!

I ordered the sweetest new colors:

(From left to right:) Rush Hour, Fireflies, Call a Treuse, X-treme, Teal Tuesday,

Scandalous, Fantasy, Striptease, Pandora, Ultra Violet,

Foxy, Fifi, Chic, Glitz, Euphoria

I love them

Only really disappointing find was actually X-treme, with has a bad color payoff. It's a really stunning shade, but also really hard to work with.

And my Pandora was a little bit broken :(

But I have to say, that Ultra Violet is a killer. I LOOOOOOOVE that purple! I admit that Foxy, Striptease, Pandora, and Fifi are very much alike, but I don't care. They are all sweet

Here are the swatches:

Another look at the Ultra Violet:

And here a really quick messed up swatch look I did with new SMH colors:

Adn then to my China stuff!

First of all, I want to say that I really don't want to support fake products or piracy or anything, but I wanted to know what quality the fake-MAC's are.
And I know that fake-MAC's are sold in almost every corner in China, I asked my ex to bring me some of the them to try.

Here's the fake's I got:

They have MAC written all over them, but to my eye, there's FAKE written all over them :D

So, they are definitely fake, but are they BAD?

I did some swatching, and I was really suprised.

I love the purple one. The "dark" blue one is also really cool color, but the purple is AWESOME.

It's really similar to Pure Luxe Grape or SMH Ultra Violet:

It might even be a bit more intense than the others!

But, here are the rest of the swatches:

And an another quick swatch look, this time with fake-MAC's:

So, I'm not saying that the colors would be BAD. I wouldn't probably buy them, since they try to sell with someone else's name, but I'm not gonna throw them away either. I even might use them some day :D

Then the other 2 palettes.

These are (as far as I now) really cheap one's. This next one was about... $2 or something.

You can't expect much with that amount of money, right?

Palette is quite small, but I think the package is adorable:

So, there's 12 super shimmer colors.

I have to say, that they really look amazing. You can't really see it in pics, but almost every color seems to be duo-tone, like the green one shifts to lime/gold, and the purple one shifts to blue, and the magenta one shifts to light blue/purple...
