MAC Lipstick

MAC LIPSTICKS When I heard rumours that Ruby and Millie were no longer having a display of their make-up products in major Boots stores earlier this year, I was somewhat disappointed. I had made use of the Boots £5 offer so many times over the years to purchase my favourite lipstick shade from their collection, which sadly was no longer to be stocked. I knew then that I would either have to trawl Ebay to find an alternative source of residue stock or to seek change, and so I decided I would look to MAC as I had been so delighted with my new acquired collection of their "Paint Pot" eye shadows ... more

Product The case is like most lipstick with a twist function to it but the case looks and feels a lot sturdier than most lipsticks I have owned. The case is a good size to sit comfortably in your hand and make application quick and comfy.

Eventually though I decided it was time to shell out for some MAC products - apparently I had no idea what I was missing, so I let my curiosity rule and placed my first order. In that initial order, I tried my first MAC lipsticks - these were my initial impressions, the ones that would creat that all important first opinions. The colours I chose then were 'Snob' and 'Politely Pink'. I thought I'd owned a Hello Kitty MAC lipstick prior, but it turned out that my eBay purchase was a 'fake' ... more

If you have ever been to a Mac counter in a department store you will notice the large collection of lipstick shades Mac has to offer, you will also notice that Mac gives you the opportunity to choose which finish you prefer for example: matte, glaze and amplified which all have different textures and gives you the opportunity to choose which kind of texture and finish you want. After watching several YouTube make-up tutorials I noticed how many people confessed to loving Mac’s lipsticks. In particularly the shade “Myth” which is a nude shade which sounded almost perfect for my dark lips which ... more
