Iconic...

These are iconic for a reason! I love MAC lippies. They last forever on my lips and the colours are gorgeous. I feel luxurious when I wear them. I only have 2 and that is down to price and price alone. I have to choose very carefully because that is a lot to pay for one lippie. I own Impassioned which is a pretty neon watermelon and Sushi Kiss which is a bright peachy coral. I grab for Sushi Kiss more often and I love it. I also love the smell of MAC lipsticks, that slight vanilla type scent. Can't go wrong with a MAC lipstick!!

obsessed!

these are some of my favourite lipsticks. They have a great range of finishes and colours, my favourite are definitely the satins, retro mattes and mattes. I have quite a few of these and my top three would be all fired up, twig and kinda sexy. The matte formula is slightly drying but it makes up for it in longevity. These lipsticks are definitely iconic.

Tips: Buy them straight off the mac website - yes you have to pay shipping but at less than half the nz price it's worth it.

My Life!

I have recently come to love this brand of lipstick! I love how the lipstick is extremely creamy and almost butter like to put on. It is very pigmented and lasts a great amount of time. MAC has a great variety of colour and finishes. My favourite would have to be the Satin or Cremesheen finish so smooth and hydrating on the lips. Would 100 times over recommend this product to all my family and friends! Can't wait to complete my collection!

Tips: Always prep lips with lip balm before hand. If you're using a deep or unforgiving lip colour then use a lip liner.

Best Lipstick of the World!

MAC Lipsticks in my opinion are the absolute bets lipsticks available in the world! They have a HUGE range of colours, Great range of textures and are the best quality! They have a noticeably better staying power and really are better than any other high end or drug store lippies!

Tips: layer different colours to make a custom shade!

Converted

I got the shade Snob as a Christmas present from a friend and I have to say I'm in love with it. If I don't want a bright lip, this my second go-to lipstick to make me feel beautiful. The staying power is wonderful, the pigment is insanely intense, they're super creamy and overall just the best lipstick I've ever owned. I definitely will treat myself to more colours (fingers crossed that I can find Brave sometime soon). Oh and they smell like vanilla, who doesn't love the smell of vanilla?

Update: I have Brave, a nude from the Cinderella collection, Viva Glam Miley AND Dew. Safe to say they're all incredible.

MAC Lipstick

I have a bunch of MAC lipsticks and I'm happy with all of them. The matte shades tend to be a little bit drying but nothing you can't work around. The colour range is great. They're pretty expensive in NZ but they are worth it I think.

MAC lipsticks

I absolutely love these lipsticks and I can see why they're so well loved world wide. They have awesome formulas and a wide shade range. I have two shades - up the amp and viva glam 1 (I also had girl about town but I lost it, so tragic :( ). The only thing that holds me back from buying the whole lot is the price but they are definitely worth it.

First time user- LOVE IT!!

I'm totally converted. Bought my first Mac lippy a few months ago- Amplified in the shade Vegas Volt - a vibrant orange/coral shade and I'm in love with it! The case is sleek- I love the little bullet shape, very sleek. It goes on so smoothly and the colour is awesome- very true to what it looks like, obviously highly pigmented. It stays on beautifully and wears for a really long time. It feels very moisturising and creamy. The suprising thing that I love the most about it is the smell- it smells so good! I have a feeling this wont be my only Mac lippy for long

LOVE THESE

This time last year, i didnt own a single mac lipstick. The first one that I bought was Relentlessly red- A beautiful coral/red/pink (retro-matte) This one stays on forever, its very drying which is exactly what you would expect from a lipstick with a retromatte finish, and it stains the lips so that if it comes off, the colour is still there.

The two matte finish ones i have are taupe and diva. Both of these complement my skin tone so well, and they both last around 4 hours..

Pure heroine is a beautiful amplified colour and lasts 3 hours as well.

The last one i own is a cremesheen. These are my least favourite, but the colour is beautiful on paler girls. I have fanfare, which looks good with a pink lipliner.

Tips: use lipliner to line your lips, and plenty of lip balm for the retro mattes and matte lipsticks to avoid dried out lips,.

New addiction

My new addiction is MAC lipsticks after my daughter introduced them to me 6 months ago - I now have 5! I love how strong and bold the colours are, even the matt/nude colours look strong. They are creamy and make my lips feel wonderful!

Tips: Buy duty free if possible - they are pricey but worth it!
