One word. Amazing. That right there is really the end of this post. I walked into the store the other day to check these out and I am soooo beyond obsessed! They're super moisturizing (although not good to wear over chapped lips with no chapstick underneath as I very unfortunately found out). They come in the most beautiful array of colors! Most are very summery, corals and pinks and then there are a few lighter colors as well. There's really something for everyone. They're easy to apply, they can be used alone, over lipstick, with lip liners, together, you name it. You can manipulate the colors by putting different lip liners underneath so that a coral is not so orange, or a pink is not so bright. The best part is they're a good in-between from a lipstick and a gloss. They have the shine of the gloss but they add the color of a lipstick, so if you only want to throw one thing in your bag, or if you're like my sister, and hate the stickiness of glosses these are definitely for you! They come in 12 colors at $20 each and they go on so easily you don't need to use much product to get a great look, which means they'll last a long time. They twist up so you don't have to worry about sharpening or any of that nonsense. The colors I purchased were: Teen Dream- This is a beautiful, orange coral shade that's not too bright or in-your-face Go For Girle- This is an awesome hot pink color, that's not too neon but definitely gives your lips a pop! Patent Pink- This is a really pretty light pink shade with hints of lilac. It looks great with a soft eye or a more nude look
If you're as excited about summer colors as I am, or you just need to update your lip collection, these are definitely for you!!! xo kelly
Mac Cosmetics is my absolute favorite line! I think that the majority of their products are just amazing and the quality is always amazing and I'm never disappointed. Out of all of their products I'm most loyal to their eye shadows. I've compiled a list here of my favorites, trying to include both some neutrals, as well as some of their brighter colors. Check out my video to see my thoughts on my favorite colors here:
Neutrals: 1.) Mylar- It's a simple, matte white color that's great for highlighting your brow 2.) Phloof- This is a super shimmery white color that's great for highlighting and adding a pop of shimmer 3.) Naked Lunch- This is my favorite color in the whole wide world! It's a beautiful nude, champagne color that's a great base, it makes your eyes pop without being too colorful or out-there 4.) Kid- This is a great transition color. It's a soft brownish color that's very neutral and great for transitioning shades in your crease 5.) Quarry- This is a beautiful light purple/grey color that goes on great in the crease to add some definition 6.) Espresso- This is a dark brown color that's great for adding dimension and drama to your crease Fun Colors- 7.) Sketch- This is an AWESOME purple, shimmery color that goes great in your crease and adds depth 8.) Idol Eyes- This is a shimmery, light purple color that's fun for doing a purple smokey eye, or adding a pop of color to any look 9.) Scene- This is a grey color that's great for both smokey eyes, as well as using in the crease to add some drama 10.) Carbon- This is a simple black matte color. Great for smokey eyes, great for any look you want a really dark black with 11.) Black Tied- This is similar to Carbon but has some blueish, silver shimmer to it, so it's more frosted than carbon 12.) Greensmoke- This is a dark green color with hints of gold that is fun for doing a different smokey eye than the traditional blacks
