MAC Lipstick Review

i don't usually wear lipstick, but I decided to treat myself. After purchasing a mac lipstick, I can never change. It works perfectly with my lips making them look full and perfectly coloured. It also stays on for a long time, therefore not being a hassle to reapply

As the title suggests I am obsessed with MAC lipsticks! I have more than a dozen of these in varying colours and finishes and I love them! I reach for them every day! The packaging is lovely too and they look so cute siting pride of place on my dresser.

I must confess I was a napoleon perdis makeup fan but MAC hangup got me hooked and now i cant wait to try others from the makeup giant... if it can make me betray napoleon then it must be good :)

I finally bought my first MAC, the price in NZ is horrendous! Anyway, I got the pro longwear series, and the colour I got was Soft Sell. I actually asked the counter lady for a colour that's a shade darker than my lips, and this was the colour she picked for me, and am I in love! The colour is very natural and not OTT that I wear this at work everyday. (I also got the colour "prolong" which is a red-red) The best part is this colour means when it fades due to eating and drinking, it doesn't look faded, and I can pull off not having to reapply until after lunch,. The only down side was that it's not very moisturising (however it glides on smoothly) I usually salvage it by topping it with Vaseline. Gotta collect them all!

My first ever MAC Lipstick was given by my husband just a month ago. He got me 2 lippies from the Osbourne collection, the nude one(forgotten the shade, sorry) and bright pink (Kelly Yum) which is fabulous in every single way.

1. Packaging is amazing! it is so catchy, and who wouldn't love a purple packaging anyway? 2. Kelly yum is my favourite as it very very very pigmented and long-lasting! 3. I always get great compliments whenever I am wearing either the nude or pink lippy from this loveable collection. 4. They were from my hubby! :))

almost all my lippies are from MAC with the exception of one Bobbie Brown i got on a whim. I love how pigmented MAC lipsticks! going to a MAC counter is like going to candy store, so many colors and finishes to choose from! i find that MAC lipsticks are a bit drying to the lips but i am absolutely willing to ignore that. my favorites are rebel and ruby woo. Its always the finishing touch whenever i want to dress up.

I was given my first mac lipstick from an amazing BR member, and I am in love with it!

I have the shade Patissere, which is a great everyday nude shade. The colour is highly pigmented, and you only need a couple of swipes of the lipstick to achieve full coverage. The lipstick smells nice, and comes in a classy black tube. The lipstick winds up and down easily, and there is a good amount of product in the tube. It is strong, and does not feel like it is going to snap, or break, unlike some other lipsticks ive had in the past.

As with most lipsticks it does seem to wear off a little bit, while eating & drinking, but that is to be expected, so make sure you always carry your chosen shade for the day in your handbag so that you can reapply it if needed.

Overall I would definitely recommend getting your hands on one of these lippys, especially if your a mac virgin! I always thought mac was to expensive to buy, UNTIL i was given this lipstick, now I am absolutely sold on it, and will definitely be buying more in the future :)

We all know MAC has a big name and with it a huge reputation to live up to. Luckily these lipsticks do the trick! My favourites so far are 'Creme Cup' and 'Creme d'Nude'. Both are highly pigmented with great staying power and a nice scent. I think they're worth the price.

MAC are winning in every lipstick they make from matte to metallic they have it all! At $40 they are a little steeper then your average lippy but your sure get a lot more for your buck. I own several MAC lipsticks and swear by them! Especially the Matte range the wear on this is literally all day even after eating and drinking they are still stuck reasonably well. The colours across all the ranges are so vibrant and they literally have a type and colour to suit every one and every need. All I can say is go buy one! you wont regret it :)

As a self confessed lip junkie, saying I love Mac lipsticks would be an understatement!! I own a total of 5 Mac lipsticks and I plan to get many many more and let me tell you why. The colour selection is amazing. As a darker skin tone I feel as though the mainstream makeup line's do not carry enough shades to suit us. All we get is the maroons and the berry's. Mac on the other hand has a large selection suitable for anyone. Whether your looking for a dark lip to a nude. My favourite nude for my nc 43-44 is Taupe and fast play. Staying power is pretty good. I apply a coat in the morning and usually do not need to reapply till lunch time. Number of finishes. There is a finish in Mac lipstick for everyone and the lipsticks have a very pleasant smell. Overall I love the lipsticks and although the price is a little steep in NZ compared to the U.S. I will still continue to use and purchase them.
