Hello there you!
I hope you all had a lovely Easter! I've been wanting to put this post up forever, but I've just never got around to it, but tada! Here it is! My MAC lipstick collection. I apologise for the lighting and if the colours don't show properly, if you see something you like you should definitely check it out at MAC in person.
1. Creme Cup
This is the lightest colour I own as well as the first I bought. I have to say I can only wear this if it's applied lightly and I have a gloss on top. It's way too light for me and makes me look like I've got foundation on my lips. I got it in eBay so I wasn't sure what it would look like on, so I guess I learnt my lesson. It's still gorgeous though, and it's a Cremesheen, making it glossy and creamy.
2. Impassioned
My Mum got this for me in Sydney. I remember Zoella had it on in one of her videos and it looked really good, but I put it on and it's too bright for me. I love it, but obviously light and bright colours don't suit me do well. This one is an Amplified finish as well, so it's extra in your face.
3. Lustering
I apologise for the next three pictures, they all make the colours look the same. This colour is the closest to my natural lip colour, it's a soft rosy pink. The finish is a Lustre, and it's so smooth and feels slightly slippery but hydrating on the lips. I haven't tried it with a lip liner, but I can imagine it looking even nicer with that underneath.
4. Lady Bug
This is just a really nice slightly orange red, but it is mostly red. It's quite glossy and sheer being a Lustre, more so than Lustering in my opinion. It's a super easy chuck on colour that completes your look easily.
5. Russian Red
I love this colour, it's buildable and it's amazing when you wear it to it's full colour potential. I think I like the Matte lipsticks the best, just because I know they won't slide around or bleed even though the other lipsticks I have don't tend to. It's almost a classic red but it's just a bit deeper.
6. Sin
My most recent addition as you guys may know if you read my March Favourites. This is a very deep purpley red and I just adore it, I think it's my favourite in my collection. It's Matte like Russian Red as well so it's really full on and I think you have to be having a confident day to be wearing it full force, but I usually wear this lightly and it looks nice and subtle.
Here's a swatch of them all, sorry it's not great:

And on a side note, I like to store them all in a little mason jar.
I hope you all have a wonderful week ahead! Thanks for reading guys.
Au Revoir!
