MAC in general

OK, where do I start? MAC (which incidentally stands for Makeup Art Cosmetics) is a well known brand, particularly in the States and Canada. It sells cosmetics, skin care products, tools and fragances. I am not qualified to comment on the fragances as I have not tried any but let me tell you about the make up and the skin care products...... First of all, the reason MAC is so popular with make up artists is that the make up is of a very good quality, lasts well and there is a huge range of colours. The main bonus is the range of choice you have. Take the eyeshadows, you can have different textures and different finishes such as powdery finish, shimmery ...  Read the complete review

Make up snob me. No two ways about it. Conference of class to ones life without all the related problems - enormous bank balances, weak chins, "relations" with relations..... A £7 bottle of nail polish in a sleek, minimalist container is pleasure bottled. More attainable than a Prada handbag - it at least makes me feel I have SOMETHING in common with Madonna...

I first bought MAC when I was travelling in New York. They have an amazing array of colours, and I really mean AMAZING! There is quite possibly a selection of colours suitable for just about everybody. At the counter you can see ranges of reds, browns, etc. and can test out each one - I felt like a kid in a candy store! And the people are ever so helpful with suggestions regarding skin tone and what not. Back to the product, I prefer matte lipstick as I have fairly full on lips and glossy lipstick simply makes them look huge! I purchased my very first MAC lipstick that day and when I opened it, you first notice it has a sweet scent of vanilla. I think this is ...  Read the complete review
