Brightside/Gallery Gal

I am slowly making my way through that huge MAC haul ... and I really like most of them! This one is kinda disappointing ... again just a bit too subtle for my taste. But it did try the tape trick again and took a photo so everyone can see what I meant. I did it at a more shallow angle today, and I definitely like yesterday's angle better.

Enjoy!
