Fall Beauty Haul!!

So over the past couple of weeks i have done quite a bit of damage at Ulta, Sephora and Mac. Last week i decided to head down to my local MAC Pro store and see what i could get my hands on as far as The Marilyn Collection was concerned. Unfortunately I was very disappointed. First of all i have been very excited for this collection to be released. The first thing that was disappointing about the "early release" is that my local pro store said that they didn't receive the whole line, and the second disappointing factor was that they only received about 6 of each item that they did the did have. Let me start off that i was the third person to walk through the doors of MAC, I was outside before they were even open!!! Swatches of everything that i was able to get will be up very soon, hopefully by tonight. As for Sephora, I went there because i recently hit pan on my Nars Mata-Hari blush, as well as my Nars Galapagos eyeshadow and since both of the items are holy grail products of mine i couldn't risk running out! so after i picked up those 2 items i went over by the too face section and nothing really intrigued me... I'm off to a great start right? WRONG!?!!?!? by now i have now made my way over to the Tarte section... this is where i get my self in trouble. Now they have all of their holiday sets out. So I caved and got 2 out of the 4 sets they had out! (FYI they put the sets out the same day i picked them up). I have pictures and swatches of all of it. the first set that i melted over was the Tarte Carried away collectors set.
This is everything that comes inside!!! Here are all of the eyeshadow swatches i swathed all of these alone without any type of eyeshadow base
