After many years of obsessing over mac lipsticks and never being able to afford it, I finally purchased my first mac lipstick for Christmas!! I am in love with the formula, how effortlessly it applies. The colour pay off is amazing and it lasts mostly all day with a small reapplication. It does have a scent which is pleasant. I will definitely be repurchasing more colours.

Tips: Dont apply to much as it shows up all the lines in your lips and can look cakey.
I bet everyone know MAC Lipsticks. They are the first ones who made a lipstick that is matte but not flat. I love wearing it everyday and I have a couple of shades that I bought. Teddy is one of my everyday go-to lipstick and Diva is one of my go-to party lipstick. I like that it's matte but not flat. It's also non drying and long lasting.
Love the consistency and the wear (stays for hours). For the price it's a pretty good lipstick. I purchased all mine while in Hawaii as they were super cheap but would repurchase again even with the NZ price. The colour range is amazing too.
MAC lipsticks are legendary alone in that they come in hundreds of different shades. It's the only brand I know that has such a vast range colours from the most vibrant right down to most neutral. MAC comes in a variety of finishes and the pigmentation and wear tend to be dependent on the finish. Some examples of finishes are matte, satin and metallic. Some wear for a few hours with a sheer and hydrating coverage and some last longer with a more drying finish. I always have a collection of MAC lipsticks in my collection, they always do their job and you can depend on them doing what they say they do. I tend to like more glossy hydrating lipsticks so I go for the sheer ones. MAC make the best red called Russian red and it is matte and extremely long lasting I love it. These lipsticks are surprisingly reasonable in price and make awesome presents, cannot go wrong with this brand.
Tips: Keep your empty tubes to recycle in store and get a free lippy when take 5 empties.
I love Mac lipsticks! I feel like a kid in a sweet shop just looking at them on display instore! There’s so many shades and finishes to chose from. I prefer the satin finishes which don’t dry my lips out but do need to be reapplied frequently. I find the Mac lip primer helps them to stay on longer though. I also love that you can get a free lipstick when you return six empty Mac products. I will always keep using these!
MAC lipsticks are AMAZING They feel amazing on, and last the distance. Offer the most amazing selection of colours, I want them all....I love going to our local Farmers store and playing with them all.... Easy to apply and they are smooth & creamy keeping lips moisturised.
Tips: Remember stores offer trade in's on your old MAC lipsticks
I love the colour variety and the finish variety they offer. They definitely last with few touch ups, worth their price tag. They go on so smooth and nicely and don't have the bad or overpowering scent like a lot of other brands do.
Tips: Lip liner and lip balm or any kind of moisture before lipstick as I find they can be quite drying
I recently got a MAC lipstick in the shade of Brave, a neutral pinkish colour. The formulation is Satin, which i thought would translate to moisturising. Alas, no. The colour is nice, i like the packaging, but the lipstick itself is so dry! When i wear this, my lips feel as if all of the moisture in them is being drawn out. Which results in my lips looking dry and crusty. Euch! This is the only lipstick that has had this effect, i wear Revlon, Estee Lauder and L'Oreal usually. Would not repurchase.
Love the large range of shades that Mac lipstick have to offer. They glide on nice and smoothly and have a nice creamy texture. They are very wearable and long lasting but a bit pricey
these lipsticks are really nice. they're definitely worth the price point, even if it does hurt the bank.
i have a few shades, a glittery red and some nudey pinky/mauvey types. they're not matte so the staying power isnt blow your face off good but the red lasts a while (until eating and even then it leaves a light staining).
the packaging is simple, elegant. i know how to use it, so bonus. id definitely buy more! id prefer mini sizes (THEYRE SO CUTE!) but i can deal with the bigger ones if its a shade i often wear.
