Finally I have got myself a couple of things from Mac. It has been a long time coming and I've finally got there. At last! I have been umming and arring over what to get because I have read such amazing reviews on loads of different products, but it boiled down to either a Lipstick or a Mineralize Skin Finish...so I got both.. oops.
Firstly I wanted to talk about the actual shopping experience. I didn't go into a Mac store, but as I was in Kent visiting my best friend at Uni, we figured hey why not go shopping. So we headed to Fenwicks which is a department store full of cosmetic brands and I spotted the Mac store and that was it, we were done for. The girls that worked in the Mac section were so helpful and seemed to genuinely know what they were talking about instead of just trying to offload as many products onto me as possible.
I stood by the lipstick stand for ages because I couldn't decide between all the beautiful shades.
Finally I decided on Russian Red, which is a blue toned red. I figured I should go for one that I would wear constantly for my first ever Mac lipstick. I then spotted to Mineralize Skin Finishes and originally wanted to get Soft and Gentle, but they were out of stock so one of the assistants offered to put a little of Lightscapade on me to see if I liked it and I bought it straight away. Its so beautiful and I would personally use it for a highlighter and leaves my skin with such a nice finish and really does highlight my cheek bones.
Its a gorgeous classic red and is from the Matte range as I prefer matte lipsticks at this time of year, especially for red shades. It also smells really nice too, it's quite a sweet smell. I know the smell isn't always something people look for in a lippy, but it definitely gave it brownie points for me!

It has such a nice shine to it and has tiny veining of blue and other shimmery colours like silver and gold. Don't worry though, you don't get patches of blue on your face! The product on its own just in the packaging looks stunning but this has quickly become one of my favourite make up essentials in my make up bag. I really feel that it makes my face look more radiant and awake. I use it along the tops of my cheek bones, but also down the center of my nose, on my brow bone and a little on my cupids bow as I have quite thin lips so highlighting it makes them pop more.
If your in any doubt about whether Mac is worth the money, then I would definitely recommend giving it a try. It took me a while to buy anything because I was a bit hesitant, but I'm really happy with what I got.
I hope this has helped any of you who are thinking about buying something from Mac, or wanted to see what I thought about my new amazing products.
Have a lovely weekend, and I'll talk to you all soon.
Byeee!
