Soooo GOOODDDD!

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! :))

Awesome Colour Range

I fell in love with MAC lipsticks after I bought my first one two years ago. It was in the shade "snob" and is probably one of my favourite shades to date. I love the extent of the colours that they offer. I guess my only complaint is the texture of them. They are really drying so I find using something else with them is usually best, whether its a primer, lip balm or a gloss over top. I just cant stand it when my lips get all flaky from wearing it.

Tips: Take it with you, when heading out! You will need to re-apply!

i love MAC!

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.

Great pigmentation but easy to dupe

Love MAC products. Which is why I have a few of these lipsticks that I wear regularly and really like. Saint Germaine which is amplified coral chick which is a frost and a satin one which name I can't read its that old.

It's awesome that these lipsticks come in different textures. I love the effect that has to a look. What I was disappointed with is how easy it is to find much cheaper brands with the same result.

This however has not stopped me from ordering Mac heroine ..

Tips: Be aware of the texture your using.

My go to for every lipstick kind

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 :)

Tips: Ask to test it store all the MAC staff are so lovely and helpful and its always good to see if you like the colour and texture before you buy as there are so so many to choose from

Mac lipsticks

MAC lipsticks have always been my favourite. They come in such a range of colour and finishes (some better than the other) but it's such a variety for people with every skin tone.

Tips: Some matte and retro matte lipsticks may need a primer before hand

Cosmo amplified creme is my go-to shade

I love the texture and intensity of the colour of MAC lipsticks and the array of shades is fantastic. I was introduced to Cosmo when I was part of a bridal party made up of a red head, a blonde, and two brunettes who had to have marching lipstick that was coordinated with a lemon coloured dress! I didn't think we would find anything that would fit the bill, but the makeup artist went straight to it and it has been a staple in my makeup case ever since. It is a versatile shade and is easy to wear and long lasting.

Shanghai Spice - Stunning!

Every time I walk past my daughters bedroom, I sneak in and use her Shanghai Spice lipstick by MAC! I just can't help myself, one of the best things about MAC lipsticks is they smell like vanilla, yum! She would be horrified if she realized, grocery shopping, going for a walk, and even a Sunday drive, were all completed with my lips looking stunning in Shanghai Spice! The formula is smooth, it stays on forever! Shanghai Spice is a beautiful summer coral colour, with a peachy glow. Go get one!

Tips: Hide your MAC lipsticks from mother's like me!

Candy Yum Yum

I was so nervous walking out of the MAC counter with this shade, it's extremely 'out there' and something I would never usually go for!

The finish is Matte, although slightly drying, not unbearable at all - I usually just wear a lipbalm underneath.

The colour is literally the most gorgeous vibrant bright pink ever! Definiently stands out and gives me a lot more confidence (which I expected it to do the exact opposite). This lipstick has amazing lasting power also.

I have blue eyes and fair skin and it complements them both perfectly. Also with such a bright lip you can go lighter on the eye make up and look perfectly put together :)

Tips: Use a lipbalm underneath to counter-act any drying the Matte finish may give you

Once you go MAC, you never go back

I never fully understood what people meant when they only ever used MAC lipsticks until I tried them for myself. I will never use another product again. The colour lasts way longer than most other lipsticks and in that it is great value for money. They smell luscious and are packaged in sleek black packaging. There is always a tone of colour for everyone, especially when colour is matched by one of the people instore. They are easy to apply and my lips never dry out. I will keep on buying these time and time again.

Tips: Save up the empty lipsticks and take them back to MAC for another lipstick.
