Very Impressed

Amazing colour that lasts forever- I am always impressed by MAC lipsticks! They have such a wide range of colours, so you are guaranteed to find a favourite, and MAC is sooo reliable- always giving the desired result. They also do fun themed or collaborative lipsticks, so with a MAC lipstick you are sure to make a statement!

Tips: For the perfect look make sure that you moisturise/put lip balm on your lips for a while before use to ensure that your lips aren't dry/cracked before applying the lipstick

Absolute Favourite!

I love MAC lipsticks for a lot of reasons, there are so many different, unique shades and finishes to choose from, the packaging is simple. Every shade I've tried so far is very pigmented and long lasting. There are also a good range of sheer finishes better used for everyday wear (MAC Viva Glam V is my go to everyday lippie!)

Tips: Exfoliate lips once a week and use lip balm before applying lipstick to ensure you get the best application and results.

What is the best lip scrub? I've been having trouble with dry cracked lips over summer and I've never used a scrub before.

makeup must have !!

I absoultly love mac lipsticks they have so many perfect colours and no matter how many i have i always want more!! They are super addicting, Im not a fan of the frosty finish but i would defiantly recommend Cremsheene, lustre and matte ! the best thing about these lip sticks is a colour collection there are so many amazing colours my favourite are probably Angel, Candy Yum Yum, Russian Red, Rebel and girl about town xx

Great product but...

The packaging could have been better. I have bought a few mac lipsticks in the past and while all have had great colour intensity and fairly normal lasting time, however the tubes often break: usually with the internal casing containing the stick itself meaning that it is lose inside the tube. This causes the lipstick to get blunt and wasted against the sides of the tube.

Tips: When using the matte shades its better to apply the product with a brush and it may take several coats to get a decent level of coverage (the stick is quite hard in the matte shades.) Also ensure that you have done a lip scrub first to get rid of dead skin so it doesn't cause a lumpy finish.

What would I do without it?

I never used to wear lipstick until being given a set of MAC lipsticks a year ago and now I will never go back. I currently own Diva, Russian Red, Viva la Glam, and Darkside. They all wear well lasting me all day without the need for reapplication and don't smear. Love them.

M.A.C lipstick fiend

Absolutely love the wide variety of shades the M.A.C lipstick range comes in . I personally prefer the matte lipsticks as with my skin tone and texture I find glossy or shiny lips give me a tacky makeup look not to mention added with colour. I find the M.A.C lipsticks wear well, and although they stay put they're also a breeze to wash off with no oily pastel feel afterwards. Size is convenient and so is the bullet shaped packaging. All these factors are a definite must for the $40+ price range.

Tips: Good amount of lip conditioner applied to lips for about an hour before putting lip stick on. Just before applying lipstick wipe the lip conditioner off. Also make sure lips are clear of all dead skin etc for a more even coverage

Candy Yum Yum

So pigmented, but doesnt come off smoothly. It's a matte shade but coverage is not full enough so have to apply with some form of lip primer or lipgloss afterwards. Otherwise I love it!

MAC Lipsticks

I am a lipstick JUNKIE. MAC is no exception......their lippys are second to none. Quality packaging, creamy & pigmented formula, and they have a lovely subtle vanilla-ish scent to them. The colour range is massive so there is something for everyone! By far my favorite lippys.

Very pretty

I had the matte fawn colour, freckle.and I found that it was a very pretty and full covering lipstick. It even smelled great! The only downside it that it's slightly drying and a little bit sticky when applied.
