My Mac Lipstick Collection
As it's bank holiday weekend (woop woop!) I thought I'd use the extra time to show you something dear to my heart; my Mac lipstick collection. Is there anything better than a brand new Mac lippy? That delicious vanilla scent. *Sigh*
So here are the Mac lipsticks I've collected so far...
The bolds
Viva Glam Miley Cyrus
This is a hot pink with an amplified finish, giving excellent colour pay off with a creamy texture. It is bright, but really wearable. The lasting power is quite good, but I do find that this can move around on the lips without a lip liner.
Diva
This is an intense reddish-burgundy with a matte finish. It is absolutely gorgeous for Autumn/ Winter, isn't particularly drying and lasts for hours.
Candy Yum Yum
Instantly recognisable by Mac lovers, CYY is a neon blue-based pink with a matte finish. Not for the faint hearted, it has a neon tone that doesn't seem to be truly dupable (Maybelline Fushia Flash is the closest I've found, but it isn't quite the same). I love wearing this in the Summer with simple winged eyeliner and lots of mascara.
Pink Nouveau
This is a cool-toned blue-based light-medium pink with a satin finish. It's bright, but still really wearable. A pretty Spring/ Summer shade.
Lady Danger
This is a vivid bright coral-red with a matte finish, and I absolutely love it! It's the perfect Summer red, although I wear it all year round. It's a must for any makeup lover's collection.
Rebel
This is a pink plum with a satin finish, and one of my all time favourite Mac lipsticks. It's vampy without being too much, and it lasts for hours. This will definitely be a re-purchase when the time comes.
The nudes
Creme Cup
This is a light blue-pink with a cremesheen formula, and probably forms part of every Mac lover's collection. It's pretty, wearable and goes with most makeup looks. It's probably my most used Mac lipstick and is a regular fixture in my handbag.
Angel
Everyone and their mum has heard of Angel, and probably has it. It became sort of a 'cult' Mac product because of Kim Kardashian rocking it constantly back in the day. It's a light-medium pink with a frost finish, although it doesn't come off at all frosty on the lips. It's really similar to Creme Cup (you probably don't need both, but I'm a lipstick hoarder), but it maybe lasts a little longer.
Posh Tone
This is a warm peachy-beige with a mineralise rich formula, feeling extremely creamy on the lips. It's a warm nude, and one of my most reached for Mac lipsticks. I'd definitely like to try more shades in this formula.
Enchanted One
This is a similar peachy-beige shade to Posh Tone, but with a matte finish. It was part of the Alluring Aquatics collection from 2014 (remember that gorgeous packaging?). It's a pretty colour, just make sure your lips are well moisturised.
Plumful
This was an Essie Button/ Amelia Liana recommendation, and they were so right to sing it's praises. It is a pinky-plum with a lustre finish that really does seem to flatter all skin tones. If you don't have it, you need it.
Sweet and Sour
This is my most recent purchase, and I've been wearing it almost constantly. It's a light peach cream with a cremesheen formula, which does look quite scary in the bullet. I wear it over a lip liner, often Soar, and it creates such a beautiful peachy-nude. Gorgeous for this time of year.
