My Top 5 MAC Lipsticks

It was really hard for me to narrow down my 5 favourite MAC lipsticks, but I think I managed to choose the ones I get the most use out of. Of course, there are other MAC lipsticks I love, but I couldn't choose them all!


(In order from L-R)
Honey Love; Honey Love is a matte finish but I don't find it drying at all. The colour is very pigmented and is a medium beige nude with a dash of pink. This is definitely more of a natural nude so no dramatic corpse effect here, I'm talking to you Myth!
Girl About Town; Girl About Town is a bright pink shade with clear blue under tones. It's an Amplified finish, so it's really bright and has a little sheen to it, but to me is essentially a creamy matte.
Pink Plaid; Probably my most used, and my second tube. Pink plaid is a very cool toned blue based pink with matte finish, that I used as my everyday lipstick. Its easy to use with my pale skin and can suit all occasions.
Heroine; Heroine is a bright matte purple. It is described as a “bright violet/purple" but I find you will see anything from medium to dark purple, to neon purple, and to true magenta depending on your natural lip colour. It’s a really unique shade in my opinion and I love it.
Flat Out Fabulous; Another matte, can you tell I like them? Flat Out Fabulous is described as a “bright plum matte.” It’s a cool-toned, fuchsia-plum with a flat, matte finish. It is very opaque but does tug when applying and does leave my lips a bit dry. Still, I'll put up with that for the beautiful colour.
