Mac Lipstick Collection

Today I am doing a Mac Lipstick collection post because I love seeing what colours everyone else has. There is such a huge colour range it can be over whelming when you're at the counter. Back when I was a young whipper-snapper  I was so scared to get a Mac lipstick for the first time because all the formula's and colours confused me. Aww bless. I only own four Mac lipsticks which is nothing compared to some people who have a ridiculous amount.  Four is enough to call it a collection at least!


Creme Cup was my first ever Mac lipstick. The colour is a wearable everyday pink with blue tones which makes your teeth look whiter. It is a cremesheen which is my favourite. It's so creamy and glossy looking but it only lasts a couple of hours. In the bullet it has a gorgeous sweet almost fudge smell! When it runs out, which properly wont be too long as I use it so much, I will definitely repurchase it.


Next up is Please Me which is a matte finish. I love the way matte lipsticks look. It still as a creamy texture and it isn't drying. Out of all of them this is properly my least favourite. It is a lovely colour but it doesn't have the same wow factor. If you're on a budget Pink Pout from Revlon is a great dupe for it.

Russian Red is another matte lipstick. I once worse this for a night out and didn't even need to touch it up the whole night. Impressive! I love the berry tone to this that stops it from being a super harsh colour. Like any red lipstick it definitely needs to be applied with a lip brush first to stop it looking messy. This lipstick is a sort of special to me because I got it to celebrate getting my braces off!


Last but not least is Full Speed. It is part of the sheen supreme range hence the different packaging which I hate because the lid is a bugger to get off! The formulation isn't quite as smooth as a cremesheen but it lasts for much longer. The bright coral colour is gorgeous and very pigmented.

Do you own any Mac lipsticks? What is your favourite?
Thanks for reading!x

  2. I got the syrup shade from the lustre range the other day and love it! It looks quite dark but when you put it on its a really natural pink x

    1. We are opposites because I'm trying to stop buying so many lipsticks! That was Russian Red which has amazing staying powder for such a dark lipstick x

  5. I love the Sheen Supremes, but yes the lids suck! I always think I'm going to end up breaking them, they're so hard to get off.

  7. I always feel a little overwhelmed at counters such as Mac. I always make sure I know exactly what I want to look at before hand.
    The lipstick colours are beautiful.

  8. I've wanted Russian Red for ages but I don't know if I'm daring enough to really pull it off, I think I'd probably buy it and then not wear it haha xx

    1. I know what you mean but it is good to get out of your comfort zone! The Rimmel 111 Kate Moss lipstick is quite similar maybe you could start out with that?x

  10. Haven't tried any mac lipsticks yet but I have my eyes on angel and vegas volt although cremecup looks quite good in the swatch. I have to say I prefer more natural lipsticks than bright ones. x
