Mac lippy

Love the large range of shades that Mac lipstick have to offer. They glide on nice and smoothly and have a nice creamy texture. They are very wearable and long lasting but a bit pricey

MAC Lipstick

I recently got a MAC lipstick in the shade of Brave, a neutral pinkish colour. The formulation is Satin, which i thought would translate to moisturising. Alas, no. The colour is nice, i like the packaging, but the lipstick itself is so dry! When i wear this, my lips feel as if all of the moisture in them is being drawn out. Which results in my lips looking dry and crusty. Euch! This is the only lipstick that has had this effect, i wear Revlon, Estee Lauder and L'Oreal usually. Would not repurchase.

Mac lipstick

I love the colour variety and the finish variety they offer. They definitely last with few touch ups, worth their price tag. They go on so smooth and nicely and don't have the bad or overpowering scent like a lot of other brands do.

Tips: Lip liner and lip balm or any kind of moisture before lipstick as I find they can be quite drying

LOVE

MAC lipsticks are AMAZING They feel amazing on, and last the distance. Offer the most amazing selection of colours, I want them all....I love going to our local Farmers store and playing with them all.... Easy to apply and they are smooth & creamy keeping lips moisturised.

Tips: Remember stores offer trade in's on your old MAC lipsticks

Love Mac lipsticks!

I love Mac lipsticks! I feel like a kid in a sweet shop just looking at them on display instore! There’s so many shades and finishes to chose from. I prefer the satin finishes which don’t dry my lips out but do need to be reapplied frequently. I find the Mac lip primer helps them to stay on longer though. I also love that you can get a free lipstick when you return six empty Mac products. I will always keep using these!

Best lipstick I've tried

Love the consistency and the wear (stays for hours). For the price it's a pretty good lipstick. I purchased all mine while in Hawaii as they were super cheap but would repurchase again even with the NZ price. The colour range is amazing too.

Velvet teddy

After many years of obsessing over mac lipsticks and never being able to afford it, I finally purchased my first mac lipstick for Christmas!! I am in love with the formula, how effortlessly it applies. The colour pay off is amazing and it lasts mostly all day with a small reapplication. It does have a scent which is pleasant. I will definitely be repurchasing more colours.

Tips: Dont apply to much as it shows up all the lines in your lips and can look cakey.

not quite a convert but...

these lipsticks are really nice. they're definitely worth the price point, even if it does hurt the bank.

i have a few shades, a glittery red and some nudey pinky/mauvey types. they're not matte so the staying power isnt blow your face off good but the red lasts a while (until eating and even then it leaves a light staining).

the packaging is simple, elegant. i know how to use it, so bonus. id definitely buy more! id prefer mini sizes (THEYRE SO CUTE!) but i can deal with the bigger ones if its a shade i often wear.

There's just something about MAC lipsticks

I don't know what it is, but there is just something so appealing about MAC lipsticks. Is it the brand? The packaging? The color range? The quality? For me I think it's a mixture of these things. When I buy MAC I know I am receiving a product which is loved world-wide and there's something so securing in that fact. The color range is one of my favorite things, and probably the worst thing.. as there is just too much to chose from! The Matte range is truly matte, the glaze, a glittery glaze, you actually get exactly what is advertised. My only con with MAC lipsticks is I find they don't have the best staying power, but in saying that, they are such a nice creamy consistency that I don't mind having to re-apply.

Tips: Prep your lips properly so that the lip stick is as long lasting as possible. Exfoliate, moisturize and line. For extra stay power, apply and let set, then hold a tissue over your lips while applying a finishing powder gently over your lips.

Where have you been all my life???

I finally took the plunge and purchased my first MAC lipstick. I ordered online and had it shipped from the US. My colour of choice was Riri Woo. I am totally in love! This lippie is beautiful. The colour is amazing, it feels amazing on my lips and it lasts for hours!! I can't wait to expand my collection! So many amazing colours to choose from.
