Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen Lipstick - Ravishing

this is a very bright colour. my biggest complaint with this lipstick is that to get a thick colour on your lips you have to apply many layers on to begin with and then keep re-applying regularly. MACs matte and satin formulas are better. it is not very thick, and goes on more like a sheen. i am an NW25 and i found that this colour didnt really suit me - perhaps because i dont normally wear loud colours and this one was particularly out of my comfort zone - i am more of a nude and baby pink type of girl. but if you do like the brighter colours, this is a nice orange, just be ware that it is not very thick and requires a fair bit of maintenance. it feels nice on the lips though. it is a definite orange but is not as in your face as colours such as morange - it is one of the more subtle oranges. if you are a person who suits orange lipstick, it is probably one that you could wear to work everyday. i wont be re-buying only because i cannot wear the colour.

Lipstick -MAC - Cremesheen - Creme d'Nude

this lipstick was a disappointment to me - the colour is wonderful but the finish (cremesheen) i find has no staying power, and it shows up any imperfections in your lips (especially if you have dry lips). i am a huge fan of opaque lipsticks and this lipstick fell very short of that. it was more like a tinted lipgloss for me. it is a lovely colour though, and does feel nice on the lips but i would recommend MACs honeylove over this colour. i am an NW25. creme d' nude is in my opinion, a boringly safe nude. i think it is blah

Lipstick -MAC - Snob lipstick

i am about to re-order this product as i love it so much! i am an nw25 and this is the perfect pink for night or day wear. it adds just enough colour to brighten up my face in any setting. it is a bit of a barbie pink, and while its not the loudest of colours, it does pack a bit of a punch and i wouldnt wear it if you wanted to blend in - having said that it is such a feminine colour and looks great with both light or heavy eyes. the satin finish goes on really well and is easy to apply. it feels great on your lips, not drying at all. if your lips are dry it might show up in the cracks. the colour is very opaque which is just the way i like it. overall i would describe snob as a wearable barbie pink. great product for both blondes and brunettes!

Lipstick -MAC - Matte - Honeylove

absolutely love this colour and finish. i am NW25 and honeylove is the perfect colour for giving a nude finish without making my lips look completely colourless. i wear this lipstick every day as it is very versatile. it does have a bit more of a brown tinge which i was unsure of at first, but after time, this colour really grew on me. if you are looking for a really nude lipstick, and you are around my skin tone (medium to fair skin) this is not the one for you. perfect with a smokey eye and the matte formula i find makes my lips look fuller. this lipstick goes on well and is great to mix with shades of pink (eg snob). i am about to re-order this lipstick, i love it! here in Australia MAC lipsticks cost $36 which is why i rated it as expensive. great product!
