MAC Lipstick Review

I own pure heroine and i think it is a lovely colour. suits fair skin tones well and has a nice texture.

I love MAC lipsticks. I think the way they look on is absolutely flawless, and their pigmentation is perfect. I'm not a big fan of the Retro Mattes, as I find them quite drying and difficult to apply, though the regular Matte range are great and a lot easier to apply. Overall, MAC lipsticks are perfect in my opinion if you want a statement lip colour!

Sigh.

MAC seriously does the greatest lipsticks! It's so hard to pick favourites and so hard to refrain from buying every single one.

Two of my favourites are Cherish (Satin) and Girl About Town (Amplified).

Cherish is a perfect nude (and totally underrated) that glides on creamy, doesn't emphasise dry lips, and wears really well throughout the day. It's easy to pop a lip balm over, or a gloss over the top, and sometimes I mix this with a pink to make a pinker nude, as this is more of a true nude.

Girl About Town, oh my where do I start! The brightest of bright pinks but without the neon factor. It's on the slightly darker spectrum of bright pink and is absolutely stunning. Unfortunately mine got left in the car on a hot day and all melted to one side so I have to use a lip brush to apply but this does apply well straight from the tube for such a bright colour. I always get compliments when I wear this and it suits such a huge range of skin tones.

Every single person can find a MAC lipstick shade they love. The variety is huge and the quality never disappoints.

Oh my lord-My all time fav lippie of all lippies (Rebel, Sin, Angel, Teddy and Please Me to name a few of my favs!!!) You cannot go wrong with a MAc in your handbag-be careful though once you invest in one you'll need them all in your life. Just the feel of this stuff on your lips compared with other lippies is enough to have you sold!!! FIVE STARS

Lets face it, everyone loves MAC lipstick. They range of texture, the range of colours, the feel of putting it on in public with that infamous black bullet. I rarely use lipstick but if I do it is a MAC. Wear a lip liner though, just to increase the stay power.

I recently purchased my first mac lipstick after getting over have to re apply every half hour and bad quality drug store lipsticks. I am so Impressed at the staying power and quality ! I applied Mac "modesty" at 9am and didn't have to reapply till late afternoon, I also didn't get and clumping in he corners etc I would highly recommend these lipsticks since I got my first iv gone and bought more colours!

I was lucky enough for a friend to purchase for me my first MAC lippie in the cult fav colour St Germain. I had MAC foundations and primers already but never seen the point in having lipsticks worth so much... until I tried it. I now have 10 shades in my collections in the past 12 months. The colours are on point, the packaging feels expensive and I love all the formulations. Lasting power does vary lippy to lippy but I can say I am hooked! They are a worth while investment

I love MAC lipsticks. There's just something about them that attracts a lipstick lover like me. They have such an amazing colour range and I love their limited edition collections. I personally love the mattes, retro mattes and amplified finishes. The only downside is how expensive MAC lipsticks are in NZ. I would have more if it wasn't for the price.

I just got my first two to see how they go. I've got Kinda Sexy which has become my staple nude/ apricot for a finished look that's not too extreme. And I've got Russian Red, which is a bold red carpet red.

The colours are definitely gorgeous. If I could take every colour home I'm sure I would try every colour in turn! Oh how I wish I had more $$!

I love the matte finish! It makes it feel more secure!

The only thing that I'm looking for again and again in lippy is staying power. It's definitely gone as soon as you take a sip of wine or eat something. But then again, no lippy has given me everything I want in this regard. Any tips would be so appreciated!

I have a couple of MAC lipsticks but I thought this one was more fitting for the review as I am constantly craving more MAC lippys lol.

A friend of mine suggested I try Craving as she felt that it would suit pretty much everyone. So without hesitation I put it in my cart.

She could not have been more right. This is such a beautiful colour. It's a really subtle shade. It's quite noticeable but not an in your face colour if that makes sense. I instantly fell in love with it and I find myself reaching for this colour the most.

It's an amplified finish and I've noticed that I do need a few touch ups throughout the day. It's not very long lasting compared to my "All Fired Up" lipstick but that one is a retro matte finish so the staying power is ovbiously a lot better. I find with my all fired up lippy, I can eat and drink anything and not have to touch up afterwards because it wears really well. I do find that there is a hint of lipstick on my cup after drinking but it doesn't affect my lip colour at all. It's amazing!!

I love, love, love the smell of these lipsticks. They all smell like they want to be eaten. The sweet vanilla scent is heavenly. That is one of the main reasons why I quickly became addicted to them.

I find myself swatching my collection quite a lot because I'm obsessed with all the beautiful colours. And it almost feels surreal owning these beautiful products. I never thought I'd ever jump on the MAC bandwagon given how expensive they are in Nz, but because of Shaaanxo, I discovered youshop and that's how my addiction began.

I don't think I'd ever walk into a MAC store here and buy more products, I think it is far too expensive so for all my MAC essentials, I will stick to the official website so my collection can continue to grow.

Every girl needs a beautiful MAC lipstick. Even if it's just 1. Find your perfect shade, buy it and own it xx
