I'm not LR, but most of your questions can be answered by the MAC site:

Also, to help your eyeshadow stay on all night, try Urban Decay's Primer Potion. It will keep that stuff on there like nothing else! You can buy that from Sephora.com or a Sephora or Ulta store.
I use MAC also, and I have to say, it is well worth the extra $$$. The colors are much more vibrant and long lasting than any drugstore line I've tried. If $$$ is an issue, I would say pick a few colors of eyeshadow and start with them. If you can get to a MAC store or counter (they are also in dept. stores) have a makeup artist do a consult for you, and maybe buy a few of the colors she/he suggests.
I would save my $$$ on mascara, though, and buy that at the drugstore.

Re: please latina rose help
Yeah, MAC is SO worth the money. I can do water shows, sweat my ass off, and work a million hour day and my makeup stays put. Their gel liner is the shit.....
Re: please latina rose help
MAC = Makeup Art Cosmetics
Definitely worth the money. This was mentioned somewhere in another thread, but you can book an appointment at a counter to get your makeup done for $40-50. The fee is redeemable in products at the end so you can purchase whatever she used on you. Great way to get into MAC and don't be shy to go in there and tell them you want stripper makeup. In fact, tell them when booking your appt so they can put you with a makeup artist that is skilled at that look. Make sure you get fake lashes put on too and I would book it in the evening on the way to work. You will feel extra fabulous that night.
Like Corsica said, q's about pricing and locations can be found on their site.
Don't waste your money on their mascara. Not one of their best products. Their foundation isn't that great either, but you may find something that works for you.
My favorite products of theirs are the eyeshadows, lipglosses, and pigments.
You will definitely notice a difference when you use their products. When I first started dancing, my makeup was all drugstore. Now I have a traincase full of MAC. :) I don't even bring whatever shadows I'm wearing to work b/c I know I won't need to reapply them.
^I highly recommend this site for MAC and all makeup questions.
Hope this helped!!

I totally agree. The mascara BLOWS. I made that mistake once. If you are gonna use the Studio FIX (powderyfoundation stuff) though- get a makeup brush to dust it on instead of the sponge.

Also in total agreement here. Have you tried the Pro Longwear with the gloss coat? It is the best long lasting lipstick I've tried yet, and it still has that yummy MAC marshmallowy taste.
Re: please latina rose help
^^I'm not much into lipstick. I like the lipglasses, lustreglasses, and lip gelee's.

[only read OP]...and if u want to talk to someone about MAC, go to a department store like Dillard's .. that's where I get my MAC (or online). They've got make-up artists to help you find what works for you. Also, I'm sure she'll direct you to specktra.net .. there's lots of tips on there!! :D
