I know what the hype was all about now

Their lipstick are really good and pigmented. Last all day. My favourite is hipster and up the amp! Kinda pricey but it is really worth it. Love the light vanilla scent as well.

just perfect

The mac lipsticks are great, they have such good colour payoff, and it is instantly clear that they are high quality lipsticks. I thoroughly enjoy these lipsticks, dont own many however ive tried tonnes, they are near perfect.

Tips: My one and only and also most important tip would be that if you are using the matte finishes especially its great to apply two coats, the first coat is the base nd the second coat fills those fine lines perfectly, and it also doubles the colour payoff

Addicted to 'Heroine'

MAC for me will always win hands down in the lipstick game, not only does it have such an ample selection of colours, it has finishes that will satisfy even the most pickiest person. I have been quite daring with colours, so my top faves are Ruby Woo, Lady Danger, Rebel, Violetta and Heroine. Heroine is my BFF. Although a bit pricey, it is well worth the investment x

It's ok

I love the range of colours available in MAC lipsticks and they go on nice and smooth with good pigment. I find them to be very drying on my lips. I exfoliate, moisturise and drink plenty of water but MAC lipsticks still leave my lips dry when others don't. I also find that others last much longer and don't come off so easily when I eat. I think they are alright for the price but if another brand had the same colour then I would buy that instead even if it cost me $5 more.

Tips: MAC lipsticks are very creamy and shiftable so it pays to use a lipliner on most shades to keep the outline in shape

Drying

I love the colours of these lipsticks however no matter how much I exfoliate I barely get through a day of wearing these without my bottom lip flaking. I don't have this problem with other lipstick brands. I won't buy these lipsticks but I will still continue to get them through the MAC recycling program. Won't say no to free stuff!

Love the colours, Quite drying though!

I have this in candy yum yum (fluorescent pink) and it is such an awesome colour.

The lipstick has really good staying power and lasts on your lips for hours!

It is nice and smooth and easy to apply, however it makes my lips look dry and flaky when they actually are not. I guess this is because it is a matte shade.

Absolutely love my mac lippys!

Mac have lipsticks that come in a variety of finishes, from matte, amplified creme to cremesheen and frosts. I love the pigmentation of the lippys and the amazing staying power (especially the matte finish). They have a gorgeous vanilla scent and there is so much product it will take you awhile to get through one lipstick! Definitely worth the money! My favourite colours are, saint germain, candy yum yum, morange and ruby woo!

Tips: Using a lip liner really helps with staying power!

I LOVE MAC LIPSTICKS

The colours are so fun and fresh and the application is flawless. I have so many of them it makes it so hard to decide which ones to wear! They are long lasting and for some reason I never get lipstick on my teeth when wearing MAC. They are worth the price too which makes it easier to splurge on a lipstick.

Tips: They layer with each other so nicely. A great example is a bright pink colour with angel on top to make the look more subtle but still look amazing.

Russian Red: power lipstick!

I bought this lipstick ages ago for a retro-themed outfit and have loved it ever since. I feel VERY grown-up in it (I'm in my 30s, so I should!) and I always get compliments when I wear it. It's matte, so stays for ages and doesn't seem to bleed out around the lip either. It's like a little confidence booster in a tube.

Tips: Apply a couple of layers, blotting in between.
