My MAC lipstick collection.

When I find a brand I like, I like to get stuck in. That isn't to say that I will swear off all other lipstick brands, but I will generally check Mac to see if they have a version of what I'm looking for first. Why fix what isn't broken and that.

Anyway, meet my babies.

From left to right, we have:

Diva (matte)

Russian Red (matte)

Ruby Woo (matte)

Lady Danger (matte)

Mehr (matte)

Faux (satin)

Myth (satin)

It's a pretty small collection compared to most, but I'm a believer in only buying lipsticks that I'll love. There are a lot more that are on the wish list at the moment. Current funds aren't really permitting a lipstick binge (you can's build a house out of lipstick. I know; I've tried) so they'll be staying on the list and in my heart, as opposed to on my lips for a while longer.

I know it's a terrible picture, and there are no swatches to accompany it, but that's purely because I haven't had time! I'll take swatchy kiss face pictures and either add them on and update this post, or post another.

Are there any MAC lipsticks or other lipstick brands you would recommend? 

Is this the ultimate MLBB lipstick? I think it might just be.

OH GLORY. I feel my search has come to an end. Every girl has an obsession that borders on sickness. (One of) mine was hunting down the perfect "My Lips But Better" lip shade.

I wanted a lipSTICK. Not gloss. Not balm. Not butter. Not stain. Not even balmstain would do. I wanted a reliable lipstick that I knew I could always fall back on. My security-stick if you will.

...Take a seat. I don't think you're ready for just how perfect this is.

Now, I hate visiting the Mac counter. And the Mac shop for that matter. But this was so worth it! I love a matte lip colour and as much as I don't rate Mac cosmetics I do think they do Matte Lipsticks better than any other. The shade is Mehr... I don't really know how to pronounce it so I've been referring to it IRL as "MRRRGH". They'll know what you mean.

So how does it look on? Well the lighting isn't great but...

I literally couldn't love it any more. It's not possible. My heart has been replaced by this lipstick.


Do you have a favourite MLBB shade or do you favour a brighter lip?

MWAH! x
