MAC Lipstick Review

As someone who hates high maintenance I long avoided lipsticks. After trying 3 different shades of matte finish MAC lipsticks I'm converted. They apply easily, stay put, and the colour stays strong for a good couple of hours through drinking & eating. Doesn't dry lips out either. I don't always use liner as it doesn't really need it.

MAC lipsticks are famous for their huge range of colours. It's hard to go wrong with MAC lipstick as they are very good quality. Different finishes work better for different people. I have really dry lips so I find some of the mattes too drying if I haven't been disciplined with lip balm. My favourite finishes are satin and amplified. I would recommend these to ANYONE. They are creamy and opaque and last beautifully. There's shades to suit everyone, you should check out some of the less well known ones as well because there are some gorgeous hidden gems. The packaging is simple and recognisable. There's something luxurious about using high end and I've got to admit, I feel extra special using a MAC lipstick. The price is fairly steep in New Zealand which is unfortunate. If you can get them from duty free or overseas it's a bit easier on the wallet.

Smells amazing, great colour selection, feels great on the lips. I really love these lipsticks especially velvet teddy! sleek packaging also, something about this product feels special! Will always carry a back up in my fave colours and highly recommend these lipsticks. Perfect amount of colour pigment and texture on the lips

Honestly does it? It's Mac lippies. Amazing colours. Amazing range of finishes. It's just amazing. There matte formulas are amazing in colour but becomes very dry n hard to apply after a while. I'd say the life span of a matte formula lippy would be bout 4-6 months. It feels like it needs Vaseline or oil just to apply it after that time. Suggest for matte lippies try ABH liquid matte lippies. You will be astounded.

I've never thought buying MAC lipstick was worth is mainly for the price. Then since Kylie Jenner looked so amazing in the 'Velvet Teddy' I just had to try it. I love the shade, and not to mention the lipstick isnt overly thick or drying. It's pigmented and stays on longer if your not drinking and eating. Totally a lipstick worth trying atleast once in your life time. Since I have tried the lipstick, next on my wish list will be their lipliners!

For awhile i hesitated purchasing mac lipsticks because of the price. I saved up and bought too many (lol) and i fell in love these are very beautiful lipsticks. the packaging is so nice and sleek. there are so many different shades for so many different occasions. There staying power isn't as amazing as i thought but are still better than most drugstore lipsticks i have tried. would recommend

There are so many colours to choose from. They have shades that suit yellow-toned and blue-toned faces. Really dreamy to apply, great consistency. My favourite would have to be Lady Danger, which is an orangey red tone. I use a lip primer underneath as they don't stay as long as some other staining lipsticks, but easy enough to touch up. Would say they are worth the price because of their quality.

MAC has to be the go-to brad for quality in my eyes and is the only brand of lipstick i buy and use till its gone, you hardly ever find colors that are anything like mac, the pigments are so unique and if you do they wear to fast! i love how they don't dry your lips like other brands and how amazing some of them smell and feel. so worth the price!

Like everyone else I absolutely LOVE these. Ruby Woo is my fav. I also love Rebel and Heroine for non work wear. These are gorgeous, last for ages and have a beautiful finish. My only complain is that ruby woo can bit dry within a short time which can be a bit frustrating. But I continue to repurchase as the colour is just gorgeous.

Within my personal extensive lipstick collection, MAC is one of the most common brands to find, this is partly due to their Back2Mac program which gives me the opportunity to try new colours and formulas that I might not normally buy. I think they have a fantastically huge range of colours, and it seems to be constantly expanding which is excellent, so there's something for everyone. I love the range of different formulas, my favourites being cremesheen and amplified. However I do find the formulas to be pretty standard within the makeup world, I don't find them to be extra long lasting, but they also don't just slip off straight away. I'm personally not a fan of their matte and retro matte formulas, there's something about them compared to other mattes that just dry my lips out and they begin to hurt, so I just avoid those. While I think there are many better lipstick brands, I do think MAC is a great place to start!
