My Obsession

You can't go wrong with these lipsticks. Mac has so many formulas and shades to suit anyones skin type. They are super long lasting, moisturising and pigmented. They are pricey but i personally think they are worth it as i have not found a lipstick that comes close to the same quality! The packaging is so sleek unlike some other brands that come out with that cheap plastic that breaks after about a month. Mac lippies should be a girls best friend and the Matte shades are kiss proof..bonus!

Tips: If you have really dry lips i wouldn't recommend Matte as it is very drying on the lips. If you are buying one for a special occasion that involves photos avoid frosted as they can come off quite glittery. If you like a shade ask a Mac girl to try it on you first so you can see if it suits you before buying :)

I❤MAC

I love the smell, I love the diverse colors and the long wear you can get from one lippy. A all day stay,

Tips: using a concealer in the mid of you lips under you lipsticks could give you a fuller looking lips.

Cremesheen Peach Blossom MLBB Lipstick!

The Peach Blossom Cremesheen lipstick from Mac is the only lipstick I have found which perfectly matches my lips, but just gives them a bit more colour and shine. It is definitely expensive for a lipstick, but this shade is a perfect staple for that go-to natural lip colour. The only thing I have against it is that it dries out a little bit on the lips. I assume this is because it's so longlasting. It doesn't crack though, just makes your lips feel a little dry. But it's super creamy when you put it on.

Tips: You could try putting a clear lip balm over the lipstick once it's dry, to stop it from dehydrating your lips.

Love love love

Mac lipstick is the only lipstick that I wear! It's definitely hyped up for a reason. I wear the matte "Ruby Woo' and "candy yum yum". I absolutely love them. I find that I only need to apply them once in the morning, and the colour lasts for a whole work day.

Tips: I find that it gets a bit flaky and can dry my lips when I wear it day after day. I like to put on some good lip conditioner overnight, so that my lips are soft and hold the colour longer. Watch out for greasy food as well, as the colour can get smudgey. If you have any trouble taking it off, a wee bit of coconut oil helps lift it easily.

Luxurious full color

I am impressed with the swatches I tested the other day, the colors were true to their tone, felt sheer on the skin and had better wear than my other lipsticks. I love the simple yet classy casing of this product, its easy on application and the fact that so many makeup artists rave about this wonderful lipstick is enough for me to spend what I spend (cringes) on these babies :)

Tips: Buy all MAC everythang ;) its an amazing brand and the products are long lasting

Love!

I absolutely love mac lipsticks, they are the only brand of lipstick that I buy. I have about 20 different lipsticks and the colour pay off on all of them is awesome. They smell really nice too. The only lipstick I have issues with is a supreme sheen one as it bleeds a bit and the rounded shape makes it harder to apply. Love candy yum yum, heroine, violetta, creme de la femme, snob, plink, and hot gossip as my go to shades

Tips: Save all your empties to cash in for back to mac for even more lipstick. Yay!

Other brands can stack up

Great range of colours and are very moisturising for your lips, but in saying that besides the smell they have everything Maybelline lipsticks have also but with a much higher price point - could this be down to the luxury image of the entire brand? The one downfall i have found with about 50% of my MAC lipstick purchases is that the colour doesn't last very long on your lips and it bleeds very easily, it is a very much re-apply through the day/night commitment (especially when eating). ll in all i think they are a great lipstick to own & wear but if you are on a tighter budget or would prefer two for the price of one other brands do stack up so give them a go! :)

Tips: Use a lip liner (my preferred is clear) to avoid outer lip stains or bleed.

I love my MAC lippy

I love the smell almost to the point of wanting to taste. The scent is sort of like a vanilla stick you use for cooking and it glides in smoothly. I love the natural shades like peachstok and myth are my favz as they make my lips look more plump without any brightness. The downside is that it can be a bit high priced but if I can buy a coffee a week I can sure buy a mac lippy, a must have for any women

Tips: Use a lip liner to pencil shape of the lippy

looooove!

mac lippys are my all time favourite! I have a few and i find myself reaching for them all the time! I have one in the colour 'Angel', its a gorgeous light pink with a frostily Finnish. I absolulty love it, the colour pigmentation is awesome, they are so creamy allowing them to slide on nicely and they are reasonably long lasting! Mac also offers a wide range of colour selections to suit everyones personal needs, so definitely go and have a look, they are a bit on the pricy side, but are honestly worth it!

Cant get enough!!!

Hands down the best lipstick brand ever! They go on so smooth and creamy. Very pigmented and they actually last a pretty good amount of time. Oh and the smell of these babies are to die for!! You feel like you just want to bite it! It's not an over powering scent aswell! J
