I'm in love with the huge shade range! There will always be some to suit your skin in here. The frost range was the first I tried - wasn't too bad, but now I really enjoy the colours of the matte and amplified range, though matte really needs a smooth base to apply.

I purchased Cremesheen Creme Cup a nude pink yesterday based on the reviews. I'm not sure about the shade, but it's outside my normal comfort zone colour of slightly brown nude. It's very moisturising and does last. It is very pricey compared to my favourite Revlon Lip Butter Creme Brulee, but I will persevere because I love the lippy. I think it's more of an evening colour with smokey eyes rather than a day colour. Would buy again. 9/10 but only because of the $40 price tag.
You can never go wrong wearing any Mac lipstick. Perfect texture, long lasting and great color range. My ultimate winter favorite is Hang up. Pair that with a winged eyeliner to achieve a polish and timeless look this winter.
I have a special place in my heart for MAC lipsticks. They have so many great colours in formulations that suit everyones preference. My favourite formulation is the Amplified formula. It's creamy and vibrant. You can trust that it will stay on your lips for a long time. The Matte lipsticks are known for their stick-ability which is GREAT for vibrant colours but can feel drying on the lips if you don't prepare them properly. Go in store, get matched with a colour you'll love and just see!
Tips: For the Matte formulas, exfoliate and moisturize your lips before applying! (:
The MAC lipsticks I have purchased have been by far the best lippys I have ever used. The matte finish is definitely my favourite finish. It stays on forever, all you need is a few touch ups through out the night and you are good to go.
Tips: Russian Red is the greatest red colour on the market at the moment. It is pure perfection, however slightly unforgiving, so be careful on application
Mac lipsticks are up there with my all tine favorite lippys. They are very smooth and pigmented and easy to apply. My favorite colours are ruby woo and angel!
Tips: Apply once then press a tissue over top and dust over some translucent powder then apply again for a longer lasting application.
So I own two Lipsticks from the "Retro Matte Collection" I have Ririwoo which was gifted to me by a friend and I also got All fired up. These Lipsticks are as Matte as you can get,I love the Color Payoff and I love the color selection! and of course that yummy smell that mac lipsticks have. The only thing I dont like about the Retro matte lipsticks is that there very dryyyyyying. But that doesnt bother me too much because I LOVE the color hahaha
Tips: Wear MAC's LIP Prep and Prime , before applying the lipstick ! will go on much smoother and not be as drying x
My first MAC lippy, totally amazing, a vibrant red, goes on nice and smooth, even though red is a difficult colour to apply right
Tips: Lip liner is a must for those bold colours, and definitely make sure those lips are super hydrated first!
By far the best brand I have ever used lipstick-wise. So creamy and pigmented, great colour pay-off! Really long-lasting and doesn't bleed :)
Tips: Pair with a lip-liner and you have a colour that will last all day long
After seeing so much hype about this colour on youtube I decided to give it a go and I'm never looking back! This lipstick gives an amazingly pigmented bold lip that stays in place all and is worth every penny spent on it.
Tips: Use with a lip brush, it is difficult to fix up mistakes due to the pigmentation
