My top 10 MAC lipsticks

Hi guys :)

MAC lipsticks are my all time favourite but with so many choices it's hard to decide on a colour, let alone a finish! So I put together some pictures of my top 10 lipsticks. I tried to include a variety of colours and finishes that work for most skin tones. Feel free to comment any questions! Also this is in no particular order, I hope you enjoy :)


#1 : Snob

Snob is a muted blue-toned pink. It is a satin finish. This works well with all skin tones but is probably more suited to a medium tan to pale. I have repurchased Snob in the past cause it's such a good everyday colour and I would always recommend it!


#2 : Rubywoo

Rubywoo is another blue-toned colour. It's a matte finish and a beautiful true red that lasts for hours on my lips. I would recommend this more for a pale skin tone but again it looks AMAZING with a tan!


#3 : Myth

Myth is most definitely one of the more well known MAC lipsticks. It is an amazing nude colour and I think it's one of the best on the market. It is a satin finish. I think it's more of a peachy nude rather than a brown nude and I love it!


#4 : Girl About Town

Girl About Town is a gorgeous light berry colour with an amplified finish. It is true to colour and so vibrant! It has a slight shimmer that makes your lips look really moisturised but still opaque.


#5 : Hue

Hue is a light pink nude that works well on all skin tones. It is a glaze finish with moisturising qualities. It is one of my favourite MAC lipsticks and I wear it most days.


#6 : Rebel

Rebel is my favourite lipstick for winter. It is really good for creating a dark lip that's not drying (which is great for chapped lips). It is a satin finish and lasts well on the lips. Love it :)


#7 : Saint Germain
Left with flash....Right without flash

Saint Germain is the perfect barbie pink. It is an amplified finish that comes off really opaque. I would recommend it more for paler skin tones because of the fact that it's another blue-toned pink. I love wearing this lipstick on nights out.


#8 : Up The Amp

Left with flash....Right without flash
Up The Amp is my favourite purple lipstick. It is such a universal colour with great pay off. It is an amplified finish and looks good with almost all eye makeup looks.


#9 : Impassioned

Left with flash....Right without flash
Impassioned is a beautiful raspberry colour. Like with the others, it's amplified finish gives it great colour pay off. It has a slight shimmer and looks really good with medium to dark skin tones. It stains the lips slightly but this just makes the colour last longer.

#10 : Sunny Seoul


Left with flash....Right without flash
Sunny Seoul is my all time favourite MAC lipstick! It is a beautiful peachy pink with a slight gold shimmer. It looks amazing on tanned skin but works well universally. It is a cremesheen finish so it's almost glossy and really moisturising. Go and buy it!!
