Nothing beats MAC

I cannot go past a MAC store without buying a new lippie. They are amazing. My favourite are the matte lipsticks, they stay on all day and night, with limited touch ups.

Kinda Sexy Matte Lippi

I went into the mac store asking for an alternative after my Clarins lipsticks kept snapping at the base after 2-3 weeks of use. I use lippi all day every day at work and it's important to have a long lasting lippi that doesn't bleed and jeeps lips moisturized. This covered my requirements and hasn't cracked let alone snapped. Very much recommend this product.

Love. Love. Love.

I absolutely LOVE my Mac lippies! They are still hands down my favorite lipstick brand and I have tried a fair few! They have such an amazing range and they all have such great colour payoff! The only gripe that I would have about some of these is that the Matte lipsticks can be rather drying on my lips, but putting a good lip moisturizer underneath usually manages to fix this problem!

Stays put but dries my lips out

I've always been a red lipstick wearer since doing dance competitions when I wars younger, so I always like to have a good red lippy on hand. I bought Ruby Woo last year, and can honestly say it's not my favourite purchase! Yes, the colour is amazing. Yes, it stays on for ages. But unfortunately it just goes horribly dry and feathers on my lips, even when I use a lip balm and lip liner.

Ruby Woo me!

Ruby Woo is divine, in the Retro Matte finish it stays put without dehydrating your lips. Bright, flattering and good for day or night - I love it! I really struggled to find a good red, but this will be my staple from now on.

Always a staple

I have a couple of tried and true shades that I love. My fav is Amplified Impassioned. It's such a stunning creamy bold pink, goes on and stays on like a dream. I purchased a handful of shades in the states and the price difference is catastrophic so it is a little bit soul destroying paying as much as we do here - however in saying that i wholeheartedly believe it is worth the extra money. I'd be hard pressed to choose between MAC and Limecrime.

Definite favs!

I love my MAC Retro Matte lippies - I have the Riri Woo, Heaux and Boy...my favs are the red! Love the staying power, no bleeding and the fact they are very moisturising - my lips don't dry out with these, very pigmented as well. Will be buying more on my next trip to the States.

Tips: Apply/blend with a lip brush, barely need a touch up even with eating through the day.

All round great product

Mac lipsticks are always so pigmented! They go on your lips nice, are never drying and have great staying power. They are a little pricey but so worth the money for the quality!!

One of my favourites

I love love love mac lipsticks. They are always super pigmented and in beautiful shades! The classic simple black packaging is lovely and they smell divine. A must have in your collection. They don't bleed and last a good amount of time (even with eating and drinking). I own four shades; Rebel, Russian red, Violetta and Snow orchid. My favourite of the four would probably be rebel (It's a hard choice though as all the shades are just amazing!). The only downside to the sleek packaging is not being able to see the shade names or colours when they are sitting in my lippy holder.

MAC Addict

I own tonnes of these beauties but I have to say my favourites would have to be - Rebel - Craving - Modesty.

These are the most long wearing lipsticks I have owned. For a lazy re-applier like me this is great because i only have to do about one touch up and thats towards the end of the day. This lipstick is quite pricey at $40 each but to me the price is no deal breaker for long wearing, moisturising and amazing colour selections screams a winner to me.

I love the different variety of finishes, with Satin being my favourite. Its so silky smooth, beautiful gloss but not overly wet and shiny. This range really aims to please every customer in the market with lipsticks ranging from shimmer to matt and some glossy finishes to those lovers.

I dont think I'm going to be changing my lipstick brand anytime soon and will definitely just keep expanding my collection:)

Tips: Every girl needs a Rebel in her purse!
