M.A.C

This is by far the best lipstick I've used! Those colours they come in are fab and they go on so nicely. Definitely something people should try, will not regret! The only thing is how much they cost but I'd definitely say it's worth it.

You'll never own just one!

So consistently good with every formula. Pigmented. Once you own one you will want more! Not to mention the classic mac lipstick scent!

Tips: Every colour will look different on your own skin tone. The ladies at MAC are more than helpful with letting you try different colours on.

Obsessed

MAC lipsticks are my current obsession. No joke; I've purchased 20 in the past month. I know what you're thinking - holy crap that's a LOT. And it is. I know. Thank goodness for YouShop and American prices!

Anyway I LOVE MAC lipsticks. BUT I don't love all of them! My favourites are the Amplified Creams, Cremesheens, Amplifieds, Satins and Mattes.I don't like Lustres or Frosts as I find them old fashioned and unflattering on my skin.

MAC lipsticks are creamy and pigmented and they have a very light vanilla scent to them. There are so many colours to choose from so there's something for everyone. They're also cheap when you buy from MAC USA ($16 each) - even cheaper than the drugstore lippies over here!

My favourite shades are Blankety (holy grail nude lippy for pale skin)

Rebel - The perfect berry shade for all skin tones!

Faux and Twig - Muted deep pink shades - so flattering and universal

Impassioned - The most amazing neon pink for daring ladies!

All in all I love the majority of MAC lippies. If you can I would recommend heading to a MAC counter and having a play with them to find out which formulas and finishes you like, the girls at MAC are lovely and you can play to your hearts content!

New Favorite Lipsticks

I am truely in love with MAC, but their lipsticks take the cake. I have brought four in the last 12 months (I don't have a MAC store very close) and love all of them. My first was Impassioned, a bright hot pink. Im not a huge pink person but I saw this colour and fell in love. It's the perfect choice for a fun bold lip. Next I brought Up the Amp and Vegas Volt. Both very different and colours I had never looked at wearing. With my skin tone I can only wear Up the Amp in summer, but Vegas Volt is perfect year round. My final shade was Chatterbox. This is the perfect everyday pink for me. I had heard a lot of people rave about it and finally tried it. I wear it everyday, it goes with everything. These colours last for a long time. I've had Impassioned for 12 months and its still half full. I dont think I will stop buying MAC for a long time.

Tips: Try a two toned lip by using similar shades in the same finish. I've done this with Up the Amp on my top lip and Impassioned on my bottom lip. Its subtle but different, which I love.

MAC lipsticks

I have used few of these lipsticks and they are to die for. Disappointed they test on animals so won't be buying any anymore. Broke the bank when I was going crazy on MAC lippys. I will use what I have left and hopefully in the future they will be cruelty free so I can purchase from them again :) My favourite shade is a pink they make called 'Candy yum yum'.

Love

A lipstick I do love and have a few colours, 1 I have is the same colour as a lime crime lipstick I have too but I prefer the Mac as it's not as creamy and if your anything like me and seem to rub lips a lot due to the creamy texture a lot then Mac is the way to go. I was disappointed in 1 colour for not having the pigmentation or build up but was a collection lipstick and it's still ok just don't wear it much. They are amazing though and worth the price at the end of the day.

Viva Glam II lippy

I just love my Mac lipsticks. Viva Glam II and brave are my faves with their satin finish. This finish is the best, so velvety and moisturising, I wear mine everyday. Love the colour range but always prefer satin textures and keep coming back to these two favourite colours!

Tips: Buy Duty free

I think mac lipsticks are perfect :)

Having already a few mac lipsticks, i feel they are highly pigmented and and very vibrant on the lips. They do not dry out the lips and will not wear out throughout the day. For 40.00 i feel it is a product that is worth the price. Also they have an exceptional range of colours from morange to rebel to even nudes, dark tones and bright tones. It is definetly worth a purchase if you want highend lipsticks :). I know because i own rebel and morange and think they are just simply awesome.

MAC Lipsticks!

These lipsticks are to die for!! I have three of these so far but i plan on purchasing a lot more in the near future! Personally, I like the cream sheen finishes the best, just because I find that they are more creamy and some of the other finishes can be slightly drying These lipsticks are a little bit pricey but I believe that they are defiantly worth the price if you find a good shade that you will get lots of use out of! xx
