Hello :) So here is a quick collection post including photos and swatches of my MAC lipstick collection. Its no secret that I'm a huge fan of MAC lip products! I'm always adding new ones, but currently I have 10. I've reviewed a few of these but overall I adore MAC lipsticks. The quality and color pay off is incredible. Below I included a little guide to the MAC finishes that I own, as well as a brief description of the colors.
My guide
to MAC Lipstick finishes
Matte-
no shine and very pigmented. Long wearing and drying on most lips.
**Tip: Lip scrub + balm before application
Satin
(my favorite)- semi-matte, tiny bit of sheen. Good alternative if matte
is just to drying for your lips, and you want the long wearing color pay-off.
Lustre-
light weight, and more comparable to a lip balm. Very hydrating/glossy shine,
but not sheer. Shorter wear time.
Amplified-
glossy, opaque, and long wearing.
Frost-
Bold/long-wear with frosted shimmer.
Sheen
Supreme- The glossy-ist and very hydrating
Cremesheen-
a lot like sheen-supreme but not as glossy
My
Lipstick Collection
Full Speed (sheen supreme) || Bright clean yellow-pink
Gladiola
(matte) || Discontinued from the Dame Edna Collection. Purple-fuchsia
with vibrant blue undertones.
Viva Glam Gaga (lustre) || light lovely pink
Girl About Town (amplified) || Bright blue-fuchsia
Rebel (satin)|| Gorgeous rich berry tone is a must-have!
Lustering (lustre) || Outspoken pink
MAC Red (satin) || Vivid bright blush- red

How I wish Full Speed is not on the Sheen Supremes! I love the color but not the formula.. :( Ooooh! Gladiola! :D
ReplyDeleteYou have such a great collection :D I am very jealous!
ReplyDeleteGreat collection hun, a girl can never have too many lip pies! I'm loving the look of Gladiola, but pity it's discontinued. And Rebel is starting to appeal to me now as well even though before it did nothing for me. Great post! xx
