MAC cosmetics are a hugely popular, diverse company producing makeup for makeup artists and the general public. They have a Pro line and their regular line found in most department stores or in their own stores. They range from face to lip products, have a huge selection of shades for every skintone and if you're looking for a neon yellow eyeshadow, MAC is likely to have it.
I haven't tried a huge amount of MAC products (there are a lot) but their lipsticks are very popular and some of my favourite formulas. Here is my little MAC lipstick collection.
MAC's Hue: Very pale, creamy formula. Works really well with a deeper smokey eye. Can separate a bit, so requires some touching up.
Hue is a "Glaze" formula, with a bit of a glossy finish
MAC's Patisserie: A more shimmery, paler version of Modesty. A neutral pink tone that is sort of a "your lips but better" shade, perfect for everyday.
Patisserie is a "Lustre" finish, with a bit of sparkle but not chunky glitter.
MAC's Creme Cup: a light pink shade that isn't too bright. It's a step up from Hue, while still being wearable on an everyday occasion.
Creme Cup is a "Cremesheen" finish, one of my favourites. It's pigmented while still being glossy and quite moisturizing.
MAC's Modesty: A more brown-toned neutral that still has some pink/mauve undertones. Perfect for pale people with naturally deeper lip colours.
Another Creemsheen formula.
MAC's Russian Red: Quite a normal red, not too blue or orange toned. Matte formula means no shine. Is very pigmented so be careful not to smudge it!
Russian Red is a Matte formula, which is quite self-explanatory. It is matte which means it lasts longer and has no shine. It can be more drying, but that's just because of it's longevity and harder formula.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Thanks for reading!
