Money well spent!

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!

LOVE

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.

Great range, standard formula.

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!

Tips: Definitely use a reverse lip liner with the bolder colours to keep them from bleeding or feathering. Also if you're going with the matte formulas, try the MAC lip primer!

I swear by MAC lipsticks!

I can honestly say MAC is my favourite place to go when I want a new lipstick. They have such a huge range of colours and they bring out new ones all the time! I have 10 already and I have a whole list of more I am wanting to buy! I would recommend to absolutely any body as there is a colour to match any occasion, outfit or mood! They're awesome:)

Very good

Very large range of colours/finishes. Does what it claims too. Stays on. Highly pigmented. I love every single one of these I own and look forward to owning more.

best lipsticks eveeeeerr!

I have colours; snob (a pale pink), fast play (kylie jenner ish colour) and MAC red (pretty self-explanatory) and I just am always wanting more. These are the best lipsticks I have ever used and nothing else compares in my opinion. They are so pigmented, creamy, very long-wearing and also smell super good! Although they are on the expensive end of lipsticks, i think they are definitely worth it.

Cremesheen more like slipsheen

I love all my mac lipsticks o' so much the only tiny thing I can fault I have is spreadiblity (is that even a word?) with all the cremesheen formulas I own they tend to slip and slide a bit too much and the matte formulas I find dont slip enough!

Tips: Nothing that a lipliner can't fix though!!!

Love it

I chose MAC lipstick for my wedding day. There was so many shades to choose from I got a nice natural shade with a hint of gold in it. It stayed on well lasting through most of the day . I think I reapplyed once before photos. I still use it now if I'm going out . Very moisturising and long wearing .

Tips: Apply and for a wee shimmer I added a clear gloss over top. If you apply after foundation it stays on your lips really well

MAC Ruby Woo - everyone needs this.

This was given to me as a birthday present, because I am lucky enough to suit such a red. It's absolutely fantastic, but the only problem I've had is that it makes your lips really flakey, even if they were smooth before using. If you reapply, the flakey-ness gets worse. I'd still use it again (it's my favorite color) but just as a warning to others!

Tips: Perhaps keep some lipbalm handy when using and definitely make sure your lips are flake-free before applying!
