My lips look really dry or chapped when I use MAC lipstick which makes me feel like I got a product not worth the money :( but thinking back, it's probably my lips being too dry to begin with.. Thoughts??

I would suggest using a Chapstick underneath your lipstick, that should help hide your chapped lips and make the color stay longer.

3. Stylistics Lipsticks by MAC. MAC is known for their strong eye shadows, but their lipsticks are strong also.

Still not satisfied? Make sure to look for a vibrant lip color enriched with Vitamin E or other minerals. Don't buy long lasting lipsticks either, because it'll dry out your lips faster.

Try a natural exfoliation first! Exfoliate by putting some brown sugar in olive oil and gently rub it into your lips for a few minutes, then rinse it off. This will both moisturize and exfoliate your lips! Then you should put a bit of chapstick on before applying your lipstick.
