There are SO many mac lipsticks available, all different colours and finish's so I thought i'd share my top 5 favourites! Whether you're a complete newbie to make up and just want that one lipstick that you will love and use all the time or if you're just looking for another gorgeous lipstick to add to your collection hopefully this will help you! Mac lipsticks can also be a great christmas present so I thought it would be the perfect time to post this.


The lipsticks included in this post I believe would suit any skin tone, any hair colour and a wide age range, LET'S GET STARTED!

The following all retail at £15.50 and are available here.


Velvet Teddy is a very popular Mac lipstick and if you don't already, you have to get your hands on it! It's the perfect matte nude which is very popular in the makeup world. This lipstick lasts a really long time which is important as it means you don't need to reapply as often and it's not at all drying for the lips!

Pink Plaid is the first ever lipstick I owned and it has stuck with me through a lot of events and nights out! I LOVE this lipstick, again it's a matte finish, however it's not at all drying and also lasts a long time. I'd explain this as a kind of dusty rose, it's quite a muted pink although it stands out at the same time. I have been complimented a countless number of times whilst wearing this colour and I think it's just the perfect everyday lipstick.

Viva Glam II is my most recent purchase and I will repurchase this over and over again. It's a satin finish this one so it feels so soft when you apply it and again it lasts a really long time. It's the perfect nude and has a much pinker undertone than velvet teddy, however I think I actually slightly prefer this colour and I find myself reaching for this more often.

Ruby Woo is again a very popular Mac lipstick and you're probably fed up of people going on about it, but honestly this red lip is a must have! It's a matte finish, the only downside to this one is that I find it to be really quite drying and I find it a little difficult to rub my lips together when I wear this. However I do think this is a lipstick that everyone needs to own as it's STUNNING.

Diva is the perfect lipstick for autumn/winter, it's absolutely gorgeous! It is pretty dark so it might not be everyones cup of tea but I don't have a bad word to say about it! It lasts a really long time and yet again it's a matte finish. 

I have swatched all the colours below so you can see how they come out:


I hope this post has helped and you enjoyed it!
