My MAC Lips

Satin | Rebel

Satin | Brave

Satin | Captive

So I thought I'd begin with the Satin lipsticks, these you literally cannot fault. The range of colours, the smooth, moisturising texture and the long-lasting intense colour. The reason I love these is because it's nice to have a variation from matte lips, and these are just smooth and lovely. If you're pale and pastey like me, then Brave is the perfect pinky nude, it's really subtle but pretty. Captive is more of a dark pinky mauve, I actually got this one for free! When you take in 6 empty, full-size MAC containers you can nab yourself a free lipstick, since I use so many of their products I finally had 6 empties, so I got to choose my freebie! Lastly is Rebel, my favourite MAC lipstick hands down, it just looks great with my pale complexion, it's in between being bright and being vampy, it's like a dark pinky-purple and I will wear it with anything. I'm on my second tube, and that is the only time I've ever repurchased a MAC lipstick, so you can tell I really love it.

Matte | Diva

Matte | Heroine

Matte | Viva Glam III

Retro Matte | All Fired Up

Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour | Too Matte With Love

These 5 lip colours are all Matte, so you can tell I'm definitely a fan of the Matte look. First of all, these can be really drying on your lips, so MAC Prep + Prime Lip is essential for your make-up bag if you're planning on buying any of these, the Lip Primer just stops the lipstick from drying out or going cakey, so they look great all day. These are so long-wearing it's really quite brilliant. You will of course get some fading and maybe slight transfer when eating, but to be honest you don't even get that with the Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour, it's completely transfer resistant, it's quite impressive. I love the intensity of the colours, which is why I've gone for bold and bright, but also dark and vampy, the colours come out amazing and are really pigmented. I'd definitely recommend them. If you head over to my instagram @kateaharv, you'll definitely see lots of selfies with me wearing these, but I've done some swatches below so you can see the colours.
