Craving!

I was so generously spoilt rotten by the lovely Colleen who sent me craving as a random act of kindness and now I can say that I am completely addicted!

Firstly, the packaging is so sleek and simple. Although its simple it is of extremely high quality and there is no chance of this breaking easily or the lid coming off unexpectedly. This is great because you definitely want your $40 lipstick to be protected. The only thing is the colour isn't identifiable from the tube so if you're lucky enough to have quite a collection then I can see that being a problem.

The formula of the lipstick itself is unlike any other I have used before and as soon as I had it on my lips I understood exactly what all the hype was about. It is the most pigmented lippy I have by far and it is so velvety smooth when applied. It is incredibly nourishing and when it eventually does fade (after a fair few hours) it fades really naturally so no lipstick rings! My most favourite part though would have to be the scent - it smells like vanilla! DELICIOUS!

The shade I have is called craving and is a beautiful raspberry red. I think this shade is pretty universal as a few ladies I know have it and it looks beautiful on all of them. If you are starting out your MAC collection and are looking for something that is sophisticated and still wearable on an every day basis this is the shade for you.

I am absolutely head over heels in love and I plan on buying many more shades!

MAC Cremesheen Lipstick

My two favourite MAC Cremesheen lipsticks are 'Speed Dial' and 'Crosswires'. These lipsticks are very easy to apply and they hydrate my lips, leaving them feeling soft and smooth. I can wear them for 1-2 hours without needing to reapply.

Refuse to live without these

I have loved MAC lipsticks for the longest time and I will always continue to purchase these. I have a huge range of shades and finishes and thats why I love MAC lipsticks so much, because there are so many different shades to pick from and one to suit everyone and if there isn't one that you like then get in touch with MAC ASAP and complain because that just can't be possible.

My favourite finish of MAC lipstick finish is definitely the matte finish as they are extremely long wearing and they don't transfer easily.

Tips: Use a lip liner to make these lipsticks even longer wearing than they already are :)

Mac Lippies

I have around 20 mac lipsticks and I'm obsessed! They are fantastic, the colour range, pigmentation, texture, (they even smell nice!) They have a range of different finishes so there if definitely something to suit anyone!

Tips: I often pair with a lip liner if I want to get an intense colour or crisp like for something like a red (I love Russian red) or dark colour. For the nudes (my fave is angel) and lighter colours often I just put then straight on. Also mac lipglass look nice on top for extra shine!

Ruby Woo, my perfect Red!

I have always wanted to try MAC products after all the rave reviews on them,and I decided to treat myself to a lipstick. Of course, I had to have a lipstick in my favourite colour of all time.. Red! I chose a Ruby Woo Matte lipstick, and I LOVE it!! Yes this lipstick is quite drying as it is matte, but I have found that prepping my lips with the Oasis lip and lash treatment helps the lipstick glide on smoothly and it keeps your lips moisturised the whole time your wearing it! I absolutely love the finish of this lipstick, the pigmentation is out of this world amazing, and the packaging is solid. I feel so glamorous everytime I wear this, the shade is so bold and on my olive toned skin it is a very true red. I own way too many different red lipsticks and have never found the right red for me until now! I get so many compliments with this shade, and it is a very loud and bold statement colour. I would love to try some other lipsticks from MAC, but if I only ever own one.. This would be it for me :)

Tips: Pick a shade and lipstick that is right for you. Look at swatches online, these are quite pricey so you want to make sure you pick one that you will love :)

A need not a want!

I have nearly 30 mac lipsticks and keep adding to my collection! Mac has a great colour range and most importantly so many different finishes! I have incredibly dry lips and often end up with lippy in the fine lines of my lips and am also not a fan of glossy lips but the satin finish is the perfect answer! I find them hydrating and they glide right over any dry parts without highlighting them too much!

These lipsticks are so pigmented and I find they last 3-4 hours before needing to reapply, but I think this is different for everyone.

Tips: If you're unhappy with your first mac lipstick, try another finish or a lip shade with a different undertone!

Mac Lippies

I only have 2 mac lippies so far and i am in LOVE! I got them from NZ duty free for $32 each

I have Pink Pigeon and Morange. They are the most beautiful and vibrant colors i have ever seen. You get such a great and true color pay-off.

I find they last at least a couple of hours before i need to reapply which is great. They are long lasting and just great in general.

I love the packaging its simple,clean and classic.

i cant wait to buy more and grow my collection :)

M.A.C

This is by far the best lipstick I've used! Those colours they come in are fab and they go on so nicely. Definitely something people should try, will not regret! The only thing is how much they cost but I'd definitely say it's worth it.

You'll never own just one!

So consistently good with every formula. Pigmented. Once you own one you will want more! Not to mention the classic mac lipstick scent!

Tips: Every colour will look different on your own skin tone. The ladies at MAC are more than helpful with letting you try different colours on.
