Love these Lipsticks!

I recently purchased the shades 'honeylove' and 'blankety' and I am in love! both these lipsticks are so creamy and pigmented. I do find that i have to reapply often but overall I still love the products. These are the best lipsticks I own and i will definitely be purchasing more :)

Tips: Make sure your lips are hydrated before applying matte shades, I find applying lip-balm helps.

Great variation

I am in LOVE with MAC lipsticks. I like how they categorize their products according to the texture, it is very easy to try all those different textured lipsticks. Their matte lipstick (Ruby Woo) is my all time personal favourite which seems to be almost everyone's favourite as well. Colour is great, and if its matte it goes a long time. Also, I amazed by how they try to bring out so many different shades of lipstick so there will be at least one shade that each person will like.

TYI, their matte lipstick smells like dark chocolate (not too much, but its there)

LOVE LOVE LOVE

I am in love with MAC lipsticks. I started my obsession when a friend gave me one that she didn't use, from then i was hooked. The Mattes are my favorite, they last forever when on and don't go dry or clumpy throughout your day.

Tips: Buy all of them!

Mac Russian Red

I LOVE this colour, I need a blue based red due to my colouring and wanted a really BOLD and punchy colour to have for a go-to red. This does it! I have been told this is Gwen Stefani's go to red and as she is one of my favourite celebrities I was more than pleased to learn this bit of info! The formula is very vibrant and stays on forever (i have issues getting it off it's so good) but it is very drying so be sure to be kind to your lips with balm before and after wearing RR. Its packaging is smooth and sleek, like all MAC lippies and a little goes a long way so this puppie will last you a long time. I find the colour pay off is extremely good, and i rarely need a liner as the colour stays put so well. I have not found it to bleed or smudge however you do have to be careful as it will go on your teeth if you don't blot. It feels quite dry and chalky on your lips and is very matte however It does not look too dry when on. It is a bit different to any other red i have come across and as my bestie is a Ruby Woo addict, it was nice to have my own shade.

Tips: Be sure to exfoliate and moisturise your lips before and after wearing to avoid your lips drying out!

Long lasting.

I bought this lipstick one year ago and I still have loads of product left in it. It lasts a few hours. It's a bit drying but once you put a lip gloss over the top. It fully works :)

Favourite lipstick

The MAC lipsticks are my all time favourite. Especially the matte finishes. They have a huge range of amazing colours, my favourite being 'velvet teddy.' The matte lipsticks take about 5-10 minutes after applying to become fully matte, but once they are on, they are amazing. They feel lightweight as if you aren't wearing anything at all. The colour lasts very well. However, if you eat or drink, the lipstick transfers very quickly. This is the only time you may need to re-apply. The packaging is also beautiful and the product itself smells really nice.

Tips: Use the mac lip liner which is equally amazing to line your lips before hand so that you don't go outside the lines of your lips.

Love them

I only have a few MAC lipsticks and my favourite one is Velvet Teddy. I am wanting to grow my collection of MAC lipsticks because of how much I love them. They last all day and the colour choices are amazing.

Tips: I sometimes add a plain gloss over top of a matte lipstick to change the makeup look.

my fave lippie!!

oh my gosh, I can't rave enough about these lipsticks. they go on silky smooth, the colour is amazing (whether a major pop of colour or a pretty soft pink). They last for ages on your lips and the colour is solid so you don't have to apply too much. I just love it!

Tips: I love a wee sweep of a matching MAC lipgloss on top for a super luscious look

Mac lipstick

I love a new Mac lippy, i have a large collection and seem to always get similar nude colours. Velvet teddy being my new fave. The satin range is great on the lip and has a soft texture, is still nice when re applied, dosent go clumpy!! I have also used the matte range in a few colours but always seem to return to my favourite

Tips: Pair with a matching liner for full affect, exfoliate lips first to prevent lipstick from showing lines or dry lips
