Favourites: MAC lip products

from left to right: Bare, Big Bow, Brave New Bronze, Pink Fish, Boy Bait, Smile, Ample Pink















1. Lipstick in Brave New Bronze - I've found my perfect nude lipstick! This colour will work on just about any skin tone and what's great about it is that it is a satin finish, which means it is well pigmented and has a light sheen. The down side is that it was a limited edition product. Boo hoo.
















2. Plushglass in Ample Pink - I'm not a fan of MAC's lipglasses but their plushglasses, on the other hand, is fab. It is uber moisturizing as oppose to being sticky like the lipglass, and the vanilla scent is divine. What I like about this colour is that although it is pink, it is a toned down pink and not an "in your face" bright pink. This neutral pink along with the formulation of the plushglass is a sure winner.















3. Slimshine in Bare - This is a must have MAC item. It is the perfect everyday lipstick that's not too bold and not too light that you can't see it. It gives a slight shiny finish hence the name, and goes on very smoothly.
















4. Tinted Lip Conditioner SPF 15 in Pink Fish - This LE product came out with the Hello Kitty collection and was going by fast. What makes this great is the combination of a lip balm and a lipstick. You get the moisturizing and sun protecting benefits plus the great pigmentation, and on top of that, a colour that is fun and young.
















5. Dazzleglass in Smile - I do not like glittery makeup at all, a small amount of shimmer is ok but an over the top disco party on your face is not my cup of tea. When the dazzleglasses first came out, I looked at the pictures and pushed it aside as I knew it was something that I would not go for. But as I went to the counter and swatched a few of them, Smile caught my eyes. Smile is a gorgeous peachy coral colour with small pink and silver shimmers. If you are hesitant about wearing anything glittery, try something that is not too bright and with a right amount of shimmer. Smile will flatter just about anyone.















6. Lipstick in Big Bow - Amother LE Hello Kitty product, Big Bow may look like a bright and daring colour but when worn, it gives a pinkish red sheen with small purple shimmers. There is no colour like it. I was not sold when I first saw it but once I tried it on, I knew I had to get it. It is one of those colours that are unique and indescribable but gorgeous when worn.

7. Cremesheen Glass in Boy Bait - I looove the formulation of the cremesheen glasses. They are so moisturizing and not sticky at all, it reminds me of the plushglasses but without the vanilla scent and a little less thick. Boy Bait is an awesome everyday neutral colour. I forgot to take an individual picture of the cremesheen glass, ugh stupid me.
