I've purchased a few of these recently and adore the bright colour on the first swoop. I got MAC Red and it's so pigmented, it lasts a good few hours before wearing off and fades beautifully once it does.
I've got a few more colours in my wish-list. It's definitely worth the splurge!
Purchased the rebel matte finish lippy from mac. WoW. Stays on all night, makes your lips look fuller and the colour really makes things go pop. Very happy with this product as most lippys smudge and i didnt have that problem with this.
Tips: apply a clear gloss for that perfect finish xO
Why oh why have I never tried MAC before. Oh yeah, I thought it was expensive. Well slap my face with a wet fish, was I wrong!!!
My beautiful friend Colleen sent me my very first MAC as a ROAK. Goodness me, was I blown away.
Anywhooos... The simple black box. Simple and pretty. Open it up and a wee bullet shaped lip stick falls out. Black with a silver stripe and MAC words. There is a shimmer in the black.
Pop the lid and silver canister with a black MAC logo. Wow they package them so nicely.
Twist it up and the colour (rebel) looks gorgeous. I swatched on my hand and wow. I'm in love already.
My first time at wearing it... Slides over my lips but sticks. It's like it sticks the colour hard on. The tip of the lipstick is very pointed which I love. I can get close into the Cupid's bow. The smell, gosh I can smell butterscotch and vanilla. Mmmm heaven.
Here is where I say lippys fall off my lips. They don't stay long.... Or so I thought! The pigment of this is amazing. It stayed all day. No touch ups. It doesn't dry my lips out. I'm in MAC heaven.
So my wee Colleen got me so hooked, off I trotted (couldn't swim there :( ) to buy 2 more!
The only negative I have is when they are all in my holder, I have no idea what colour is which unless I open or flip to read the bottom. No I'm not putting them in upside down, cause I love the shape so much.
Now I have found 2 amazing brands, I grabbed all my old lippys and binned the lot!
170+ shades... I've now got at least 20! with a couple more on the way! A lot of shopping for me coming up
Tips: Don't buy cheap lippys. Invest in these. Make sure you exfoliate so the lips look kissable and not flakey
I love the texture of MAC lipstick, it's creamy enough to feel light and hydrating, but not so much that you feel it's going to slide right off. It'll last for hours every time, and without drying out your lips.
It has a mild but tasty smell, and comes in a huge variety of colours. The only negative aspect is a the price, but if that doesn't put you off it really is a lipstick for everyone.
Tips: Buy it online rather than in New Zealand, half the price means better value.
Mac lipsticks are honestly my fav!! Have the best range of colours for whatever you would prefer. Which is good that you are able to choose colours that go well with with your skin tone with their wide range. They're so creamy and glide on so well and smoothly! Would buy all of them if I could! And let's not forgot about the scent! Smells like vanilla <3 all round love the lipsticks.
I have 4 mac lipsticks. Taupe, Velvet Teddy, Rebel & Ruby woo. I love the consistency of them all. Ruby woo would have to be my favourite. It is ultra matte but if applied after a lip balm I don't find it drying at all and it lasts all day. Velvet Teddy is the perfect nude, Taupe is a perfect 90's brown lipstick & rebel is the most amazing colour! So worth the money!!
Good nice smelling product, goes on smoothly and lasts for hours, it's a nice pale pink almost nude shade, so it's good if you want to go for the nude trend but have a fear of your skin matching the lipstick! It has a nice gloss also
Tips: If you tend to have dry lips, I would probably recommend to use a lip scrub beforehand, as it makes dry lips quite noticeable, otherwise it's fine!
I got this given to me as a gift and I have to say it is fast becoming my favorite Lipstick ever! The colour is just amazing and i only had to reapply once during the day I cant wait to get more!!!
I was so generously spoilt rotten by the lovely Colleen who sent me craving as a random act of kindness and now I can say that I am completely addicted!
Firstly, the packaging is so sleek and simple. Although its simple it is of extremely high quality and there is no chance of this breaking easily or the lid coming off unexpectedly. This is great because you definitely want your $40 lipstick to be protected. The only thing is the colour isn't identifiable from the tube so if you're lucky enough to have quite a collection then I can see that being a problem.
The formula of the lipstick itself is unlike any other I have used before and as soon as I had it on my lips I understood exactly what all the hype was about. It is the most pigmented lippy I have by far and it is so velvety smooth when applied. It is incredibly nourishing and when it eventually does fade (after a fair few hours) it fades really naturally so no lipstick rings! My most favourite part though would have to be the scent - it smells like vanilla! DELICIOUS!
The shade I have is called craving and is a beautiful raspberry red. I think this shade is pretty universal as a few ladies I know have it and it looks beautiful on all of them. If you are starting out your MAC collection and are looking for something that is sophisticated and still wearable on an every day basis this is the shade for you.
I am absolutely head over heels in love and I plan on buying many more shades!
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!! best lipsticks ever, great vibrant colours, great quality and they are cutely packaged!! so worth the money!
Tips: if you get 6 empty mac lipsticks you can trade in for a new lipstick out of a certain list of colours! :)
