Beauty Product Reviews
Not much of a fan. I prefer Chanel's.
MAC is a fairly expensive brand in Australia unlike America and this product is $55 and I don't find it to have significantly improved my skin. I tried applying it different ways, with a sponge, with a brush, with my fingers etc. and fingers worked best but I felt it still left significant shine on my face. Perhaps I wanted a more matte finish than "controlled oil" but the SA recommended this for me knowing I wanted a full matte finish. If you live in US and get this product for less than $55 and don't have terribly oily skin, I'm sure this will work for you, but if you are like me and have a problem with your oiliness I would definitely suggest trying Chanel's Mattifying Lotion for $77 that works 10x better :)
I have a big collection of these lipsticks but this is my favourite shade.
True to colour lipsticks that look the same in the tube as on your lips. Incredible colour range, beautiful texture and very easy to wear and apply. I wouldn't say that these are a matte lipstick compared to any other matte lipstick I have tried, they're moisturising and smooth but look matte without being dry and cheap looking. The packaging is truly artful, very sleek and chic with a subtle CHANEL at the bottom and classic interlocking C Logo on the click case opener.
This colour in particular is exceptionally special, a deep rich red that looks fantastic on everyone no matter what their skin tone or lip shape is. 10/10
Easy to use, best lip conditioner!
$20AUS is a reasonable price for MAC in my opinion, it has the beautiful vanilla scent that MAC Lipsticks have which is great and unlike the other lip conditioning products they offer that have a more herb/chemical scent... I opted for the tube conditioner because it's more hygienic on clients and myself. It's easy to use, it is quite a thick consistency but it melts into your lips and doesn't feel sticky or heavy when it's on your lips. I also use it as a sort of lip primer on clients with exceptionally dry lips. Definitely better than lip conditioners I have tried previously.
