Today I'm going to be sharing with you my MAC lipstick collection! I've been collecting MAC products for a couple of years now but I am on a students budget so I only have 7 lipsticks. I know some people don't even have that so I just thought I would share my little bunch with you guys!
First of all I would just like to say that I love MAC lipsticks. I love every single one I have and couldn't flaw them if I tried. Everything to the colour, to the texture, to the packaging just seems so luxurious and perfect. I definitely recommend trying out at least one MAC lipstick at some point in your life! So without further ado, lets get into my collection!
Okay so the first MAC lipstick I ever bought was Creme Cup, which has a Cremesheen finish. Creme Cup is a light blue pink and is a very soft shade. The colour isn't overpowering at all and is perfect for everyday, subtle looks. As for the texture, I particularly love Cremesheen finishes. They feel so moisturising and light on the lips and has a gorgeous shine to it which means that lipgloss isn't necessary.
The second MAC lipstick I added to my collection was Speed Dial. Speed Dial is a bright slightly blue toned pink. It also has a subtle gold sheen underneath which will help it flatter the majority of skintones. Speed Dial is also a Cremesheen but for some reason, I don't find it as moisturising as Creme Cup.
The next lipstick I'm going to talk about is Lovelorn. I 100% adore Lovelorn. Its a gorgeous medium toned natural pink with subtle cool tones throughout. Lovelorn is a Lustre finish which is slightly sheerer than any other formula but is easily buildable. Again they have a shine finish so a lipgloss isn't needed for Lustre's either.
Another MAC lipstick I own is Pink Plaid. Pink Plaid is a matte blue pink which is easily buildable. This colour can be built up to make it really intense or blended out to make it lighter and more subtle. Although I love the matte finish, it can expose dry lips and show cracks quite obviously, so I recommend using a lip scrub before applying.
The next lipstick is another matte finish but it is a completely different shade to anything else in my collection. Its Kinda Sexy. Now most people say that Kinda Sexy is a neutral pink, but swatched next to all the other pinks in my collection it appears slightly more neutral orange. Its almost a salmony pinky orange in my opinion.
The sixth MAC lipstick in my collection is Hot Gossip. Hot Gossip is a mid tone plumy colour with a pink hint to it. It also has a slight shimmery undertone to it in the similar way to Speed Dial. Hot Gossip is the shade I wore to prom, which you can see here. Hot Gossip is a Cremesheen finish as well and has really nice staying power.
And the final MAC lipstick in my collection is from the Viva Glam Nicki Range. Viva Glam Nicki 1 is a shocking, bright, bubblegum pink. Usually this type of colour scares me because its so out there, but I am in love with this lipstick. The thing I love about it is that it is so versatile. If you want it bright, it can be bright, but if you want it toned down, just blend it out. I also love the finish on this lipstick (Satin) and I'm eager to try more Satins because this just makes my lips feel so soft.
