Advantages: Looks great, feels great.

Disadvantages: The twisty thing is too easy.

I love Mac Make-up and I bought my first Mac Lipstick after a complete make over there. The first shade I bought was a very natural shade in gloss and my second one was a colourful lipstick also in gloss.

*Packaging*
It comes in a very stylish classic black box, and the lipstick is bullet shaped also black. The lipstick is normal lipstick size and has the standard screw bottom, it fits very well into your handbag or pocket. The one bad aspect is that my lipstick has screwed its self, resulting in a squashed end (not good).

*Application*
I rarely use lipstick brushes, though it is easy to put on a lipstick brush. The lipstick is quite thick and so the brush should be cleaned after each use unless you only use one colour. I find these lipsticks are fine for just applying straight from the stick, they glide onto your lips very easily.

*Range of colours*
You can get matt and gloss and a huge range of colours. They will also let you try them on before buying, although I have had one bad experience in that a service girl put a dreadful colour on me and then didn't wipe it off before applying another colour (also horrible), so I had to walk through the shop all the way to the toilets with bright pink lips and then wipe it off there.

*Staying power*
I have found that they stay really well, I need to reapply probably 3 times through out the working day, but that includes having coffee eating lunch etc. They will also come off during a night out. So the staying power isn't great, but I would prefere it that way then have them pasted to your lips.

*Value for money*
Well they feel really nice and I think they moisturise my lips. I also like their colours and yes the packaging as well. I think they are a little pricy, but not outrageous as your lips are an important part of you.

Summary: A good product which is a little pricy.
