soo this post is going to lump together two SIMILAR requests that i have been asked to do! The first request was to show my top 6 lip products and the second request was to show my favorite MAC lipsticks!! :) so i thought i'd just share my top 6 first (most being mac products)...and then mention "honorable mentions" (more mac lip products) to fulfill the second request!! :) so i hope this makes everyone happy!!
This was requested by:
-jeeennn09 (6 favorite lip products)
-CHRISTINExBEHxBEH (favorite MAC lipsticks)
THANK YOU LADIES...for requesting this!! This is actually up on youtube...but i wanted to post up swatches so everyone can see the lip products more easily..
*note: most of the lip colors come out real sheer (because of their finish..lustre..glaze..)..so i tried to swatch them a lot to show the color..
MY TOP 6 FAVORITE LIP PRODUCTS!! :)
First and foremost, number 1 position would have to be given to Burt's Bees. My lips definitely need some moisturizing!! They are definitely dry at times and get super duper chapped. But when I use this lip product it definitely softens up my lips, moisurizes and gives my lips that minty tingly feeling. It definitelty is "soothing, cooling, and refreshing"..just as it states!! I use this ALLLL the time..whether it be..when i leave, before i put on my makeup, before i go to the gym, before i leave anywhere, before i sleep..BEFORE ANYTHING! :)
Number 2..is just any lip buffer (these 2 work awesome). My first lip buffer was the CO bigelow metha lip buffer..the little sugar crystals help buff your lips and remove all the dead skin cells. I recently tried the MAC prep and prime lip refinisher..where half is an exfoliant (gray side with black dots) and the other half is the lip conditioner! I definitely like to use either one of these products!I do like both these lip buffers..but in my own opinion..i think that the CO Bigelow mentha lip buffer is a bit more harsh than the MAC one (but again this is my own opinion). I feel that MAC p&p is more gentle and conditions your lips even after you wipe the exfoliating beads off your lips! So like i said..i am kind of cheating here..since i did choose two different lip buffers! :)
Number 3 product would have to be my "go to" lipstick..this is MAC's lipstick in Freckletone. The finish of this lipstick is a lustre..and i loooooove it! This lipstick is kind of my "nude" lip color..i need some color in my lips so i dont look like im dying or anything..so i need a color that matches my skintone and is not lighter than it! I definitely reccomend this neutral peach lip color (especially if you are my skintone) :) Here is the swatch of MAC's freckletone..like i said this is a lustre..so its not TOOOO pigmented but i seriously loove this color! <33
On to favorite lip product #4....its a MAC cremesheen lipstick in Shy Girl! This lipstick came out with the creme team collection. I love this color and it definitely is another nude color when applied to my lips. This is definitely more pigmented that freckletone lipstick (shown prior). Shy girl is described as a creamy neutral coral beige. It definitely has a bit more pink to it when compared to freckletone, but i love the creamy texture that this lipstick has to offer. :)
Number 5 (on my top 6 list) would be my MAC slimshine in BARE. This is another color that I love...its a very beautiful color! This is the only slimshine that I own, but I definitely would like to get more. I heard a lot about this particular one, so I thought I'd try it out! :) and guess what? I love it! Bare slimshine is described as a light neutral pink with pearl. I love the color and I LOVE the formula of the slimshines. They are definitely moisturizing, you probably don't even need to put a lip balm before applying this since it really does moisturize your lips, glides on super smooth, and gives your lips a shine (hence the name hah)!
Last but definitely not least, this lip product is yet another from the MAC creme team collection. Number 6 is a cremesheen glass in Boy Bait. I LOOOOOVEEE the texture of this cremesheen glass, it is NOT sticky at all it has a very smooth texture when applied and that is definitely a PLUS in my book! The formula plus the color (boy bait) = :) The color of boy bait...is pretty much all my lipsticks hahah but in a lipgloss!! I wear this cremesheen glass alone or over ANY of the lipsticks that I mentioned!! I cannot mention enough how much i love the feel and texture of these glosses..definitely different than the lipglasses, lustreglass, ....
THESE ARE MY HONORABLE MENTIONS...
To fulfill the 2nd request..and just because i love these too :)
CUTESTER lipstick from the MAC Hello Kitty Collection! This lipstick is a lustre so its not that pigmented but it does give you that glossy peachy/pink lip. PURRRFECT :) I love this lipstick as well..but it is limited edition :( The swatch of Cutester is pretty sheer...but it is described as a sheer peachy pink with pearl! and this color is definitely up my alley!! :) HELLO KITTY plus a peachy lip color = LOVE!
Honorable mention #2....Viva Glam V! :) this lip color can compliment any look and any skintone! This is part of the Viva Glam collection..so 100% of its proceeds go to the MAC AIDS fund..so definitely SUPPORT!! it goes to a great cause..so pretty much you are getting a lipstick for donating!! its a win win situation!! So grab your viva glam lipsticks! hahah :) The swatch of Viva Glam V is shown in the second picture(this is the only viva glam l/s i own..i should get more haha)..its described as a neutral pink with pearl. The swatch looks kind of dark because i put a bunch of coats so you could see the color since its sheer. I think this goes great with the more dramatic eye looks BUT it can also work with the neutral look as well! :) its beautiful and versatile!
Honorbale mention #3...MAC lustreglass in Love Nectar. This was one of my first lipglosses from MAC that i liked when i started to love the peachy lip colors (this is my second tube of love nectar lustreglass). It is a bit on the sticky side..but i still love the color and it gives my lipstick some extra pizazz..it goes great with most lipsticks!! Love nectar lustreglass is described as an ultrasoft apricot with pearl! :) it a gorgeous color, as you can tell from the swatch! I wear this alone at times when i just want a light peachy gloss on or I wear this on top of the lipsticks mentioned in this post!
Last but definitely not least, honorable mention number 4 is a MAC tendertone in Hush, Hush. MAC's tendertones are like a light/sheer tinted lip conditioner. These tendertones are moisurizing and come in a variety of colors..you can still probably find these at the Cosmetics Company Outlets/stores :) and at a cheaper price!! It also has a GREAT fruity scent to it..that i love!! Hush, Hush is like a very light PEACH/coral tendertone with gold shimmer in it. It looks beautiful on the lips and gives your lips a great sheer tint as well as moisturizes it at the same time! :) I especially love this color since it does have the coral tint PLUS shimmer :) its great when you don't feel like wearing TOO much on your lips!
This last picture is to compare the lipsticks/glosses/tendertone to one another!! :) so i hope this helps!!
