MAC Lipstick

I only recently gave in and bought my first MAC lipstick and so super happy that I did! They have such an amazing range of colours - I'm hooked. Go on really easily and last forever. I have Girl About Town and it really stains your lips, so the only thing is I find I need to give my lips a really good scrub the next day to get it all off!

Love!

Mac lipsticks, especially their matte ones as they are the only formula I have so far , are AMAZING! they are so long-lasting and the colour range is to die for. Completely worth the investment and super pigmented!

Brighten up your pout with MAC!

Since the age of 14 I have been obsessed with MAC, this Canadian company surely has set in stone a strong vision and target market for their brand. But lets be honest who doesn't love a little MAC in their lives!

From celebrities gracing the covers of the latest mags for the Viva Glam campaign to the enticement of limited edition collections popping up every few months,it's only to easy to see why MAC have the cult like following that they do.

So what sets MAC apart from everyone else? - More like what doesn't!

Having had the honour to work on counter for MAC myself, it's too easy to see why it sells. In particular the most known products that stand pretty and tall within the vast range would of course have be the lippys!

With that amazing vanilla scent, creamy silky texture and lets not forget that oh so trendy colour selection, for the price tag of $40NZD or $15USD you can see why these fly off the shelves.

So with the names of Lady Danger, Morange, Vegas Volt, Chatterbox ,Angel, Russian Red, Ruby Woo, Pink Nouveau, St Germaine plus many others rolling off the tips of makeup loving tongues everywhere I highly recommend getting some of these to try yourself.You can guarantee there will be no disappointment in sight!

But remember to pick your shade and finish to suit your lifestyle, it can be overwhelming standing in front of that bright eye catching stand but keep in mind what result you are wanting it to have when your wearing it out and about.

I personally love Cremesheens, Amplifieds and Matte finishes due to wanting something that will stay bold with the amazing colour pay off and bright on my pout without having to touch up every two seconds.

No matter what colour, finish or packaging you choose to go for when making your MAC lip candy purchase, it's rewarding to know that there is only going to be the lowest chance that you will ever regret buying any MAC product.

So go on be bright, be bold , be daring and spice up your pout!

Tips: - Pair MAC Prep + Prime lip with any MAC lipstick to ensure hydrated lips that hold colour all day.

- Lining your lips with a slightly deeper or lighter lip liner,makes for an easy way to change up the way you wear your fave lippys!

- Apply with a lip brush to ensure a precise, sharp application.

- If MAC is a little to out of your price range opt for dupes! Wet n Wild make some amazing dupes for our fave MAC shades!

- Stay true to the brand, MAC products are being seen replicated alot lately, so safeguard yourself and buy from MAC authorised stores and their official website only.

First MAC purchase

I recently purchased my first MAC lipstick and I can honestly say it was the best $40 I have ever spent. I chose the shade 'Angel' just because I wanted something neutral and easy to wear for work since I work in a professional environment that wouldn't approve of something as bright as 'Candy Yum Yum'. I love the pigmentation and how easily the slide on and of course how long wearing they are. The vanilla smell of the lipstick also makes it even better. I've tried way to many lipsticks in the past that smell gross and you don't want to be putting something like that on your lips!

Tips: Keep your lips in tip-top shape by regularly applying a good lip balm and using the occasional lip scrub to get rid of any flaky bits so your lipstick looks perfect everytime

Obsessed

Before purchasing mac for the first time I thought it would be another over rated product that costs more than it's worth but I was so wrong. I got creme d nude and almost finished the tube in less than two months. It smells delicious and the finish is beautiful. It's the most beautiful nude shade I have ever come across. I will definitely be buying more!

Must Have

Mac lipsticks are defiantly a must have in everyone's makeup kit! they have such an awesome variety of shades and formulas. If someone told me they could not find a mac lipstick they like, I would simply not believe them! they are such great quality what I believe is an affordable price. Wish I had them all!

In love with MAC lipsticks.

MAC is really expensive so a lot of times I hesitated whenever I walked over to the MAC counter in Smith & Caughey.

One day I decided to just go for it and bought my first MAC lipstick at the age of 15. My first MAC lipstick was Saint Germain, a perfect pastel Barbie pink shade and ever since I start using MAC lipstick, I have been so obsessed, I wanted to collect every single lipstick that MAC sells :p

I personally prefer Cremesheen & Satin finishes more than the others, they are easy to apply and long lasting; and my least favourite finish is probably matte as it can be quite drying and hard to apply.

I absolutely love the vanilla scent the MAC lipsticks have and I also like the simple and sleek packaging. My all-time favourite MAC lipstick shades are Snob, Cremecup and Creme d'Nude.

Best Purchase ever

MAC lipstick is really nice to apply as it has a butter like texture to it and doesn't dry up your lips like other lipsticks can. the colour stays on for hours after you first apply and the colour variety is amazing i have both nude colours and bold and i love them both.

The highest of quality

Are they expensive? Yes, they're practically an investment, but they're worth every penny. Even a beginner could tell the difference between applying a MAC lipstick vs. a drugstore lipstick. The formulas (notice the plural, they have a few to suit everyone) are thick and creamy but long lasting. The colours are more pigmented than you could ever imagine, and the shades - I wouldn't know where to begin. A year ago I couldn't fathom the idea of spending $40 on a lipstick, but after purchasing my first they began flying into my makeup bag faster than I could process how much money I had spent. You can find good quality lippies for less, but every girl should own at least one. They are unbeatable.

Tips: Scrub your lips using a toothbrush before application to get rid of any dead skin, use a lip liner for ultra long lasting results.
