I am a very recent convert from purely drugstore brand makeup and have slowly started broadening my horizons due to having discovered the joys of Birchbox and Ipsy.

I have not been to a makeup counter since an unfortunate incident at age 14  with a department store makeover, eyeliner and my irrational fear of anything getting in or near my eyes. Let's just say it did not go well and I really hope that nice lady at the makeup counter has recovered in these past 26 years and that there was no permanent scarring.

I just accumulated enough points on Shopkick to have them email me a $25 gift card for MAC but I have no clue what direction to go for: foundation, eyes, lips, brushes, etc.

Can someone please give me a quick rundown on what you consider to be their best products?

 
Their eyeliners and shadows are awesome. I have some from a few years ago that still have great pigment.

 
They have a  nice and wide range of colors and textures for lipsticks, blushers and eyeshadows

My favourite products from MAC has to be their blushers and the cremesheen glasses (lipglosses)

As for eyeshadows, they are either a hit or misss. I would go for MAC veluxe pearl/ satin / frost finish e/s which are more smooth to blend and with better color texture. Lustres usually have too much glitter fall out on me which i m not a big fan of.

MAC's pigments are also awesome, u can check out their pigments. One bottle last forever and depending on the shade, u can use them for other purpose as well like highlighting or mixing with a clear gloss to get a lip color.
