by wearing the new MAC studio Sculpt shade and Line in Olive blend ($21) on my eyes
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: Hi, welcome to the MAC studio Sculpt shade and Line Cafe, where we serve fresh eye makeup blends, all day, every day. My name is Betty, and I’ll be your appeal Barista this morning. Can I get you one of our trios?
KAREN: Hi, Betty. I’m not sure what I want yet… This is my first time here, and your menu is HUGE!

BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: No problem at all. Neem de tijd. If you have any questions, just let me know. Each of our studio Sculpt shade and Line products comes with two powder eyeshadows and a powder eyeliner, which you can wear wet or dry, so the number of potential color combinations can be a little daunting. but that’s what I’m here for.
All eight of the new limited edition MAC studio Sculpt shade and Lines ($21 each), available now at MAC stores, counters and maccosmetics.com
KAREN: I’m so excited! Let’s see… I can’t figure out where to start, Betty. Halp!
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: OK, well, how about we start by taking a quick look at the eight blends we have here in our display case? Do any of these catch your eye?

KAREN: Hmm…
Well, I think I like this pan [she points at the one with khaki and rose gold colors]. Is that a good one?
Olive blend has a rich rose-gold, a deep olive green and a dirty olive (pearl/matte)
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: That’s Olive Blend! exceptional choice. It’s one of my top three.
KAREN: So pretty…
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: It is! Yup, it’s really great if you want something subtle, neutral and shimmery with a little a lot more oomph than a basic brown or beige.
KAREN: It’s an interesting combination of colors. kind of unusual.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: I know, right? Khaki and rose gold? but they go together like peanut butter and jelly.
[She holds it up in her hand.] I just wore it last weekend. I did, like, a smokey, sultry look with the khaki eyeshadow in the crease, the rose gold on my lids and the darker khaki smudged out on my lower lash lines. then I applied the darker khaki again on my upper lash lines using a wet brush, popped on some false lashes, and I was good to go.
Additional eye makeup worn in this look: Katy Perry Lashes in charming Lolita
KAREN: I would absolutely do that!
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: I used a MAC 224 and 217 to apply. Yeah, it looked like the kind of eye look that takes forever to buff and blend, but because the studio Sculpt shade and Line shadows are so soft and creamy and don’t have any fallout, I barely had to do anything at all.
KAREN: GURL, that’s music to my ears. You don’t even know. How’s the wear time on this cutie? My boss has me working these crazy-@ss long hours, so I need my eye makeup to last, and I don’t really like to mess with touchups…
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: If you use a good primer, you won’t have to worry about touching up at all! — another reason why I love these so much. Whenever I wear one with an eyeshadow primer, they last for, like, 8-10 hours with hardly any fallout, creasing or fading.
Olive blend applied dry
KAREN: Sold! Olive blend sounds purr-fect.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: Wow, your workload sounds intense. What do you do, if you don’t mind me asking?
KAREN: [Sigh.] I’m a pet assistant for a high-profile kitty supermodel.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA:Cool!
KAREN: He’s like the Naomi of the cat world.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: I bet it’s interesting.
KAREN: It is. My boss absolutely has his diva moments, but it’s a good gig. I can’t complain.
Olive blend applied wet
Speaking of work, I’m on my lunch hour now, and I really must start heading back.
You’ve sold me on Olive blend though. I’ll take one to go, please.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: Great! You won’t regret it. What’s the name on the order?
KAREN: It’s Karen, K-A-R-E-N. Do you people do coffee drinks as well? I just got a text from my boss asking me to bring him an almond milk latte with a triple shot of catnip.
BETTY THE appeal BARISTA: Unfortunately, no. We only serve eyeshadow/liner trios at this time, but I’ll mention cat coffee drinks to my manager.
I’m also wearing MAC Cantaloupe blush (cheeks), MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in superb (upper cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose and on my Cupid’s bow), MAC refined golden Bronzer (to contour my cheeks and nose) and NARS Lip Gloss in Stella
KAREN: OK. Well, thanks for your help. I can’t wait to try out Olive Blend!
