MAC Cremesheen; Creme Cup

I have always marvelled at MAC cosmetics at the pigmentation, the colours and even the collections that seem to come out all the time. But after one good look at the price I was turned off completely, being a student still in high school I couldn`t afford to purchase these products on a whim. Not to mention I live in a small town in Northern Ontario and MAC would never reach the little mall here, plus adding on the tax + shipping makes the order x10 worse. 

But when I was on vacation during March 2011 I was finally able to go into MAC and take a nice big look around. It in my opinion, it was breath-taking, keep in mind this was my first time in there.  Not to mention, VERY over whelming, I had absolutely no idea what to look at first and even worse I had no idea what I wanted my first purchase to be. After looking around a bit, I zeroed in on the lip products and I knew what I wanted my first product to be and I knew that I would get alot of use out of one of those. 

I discovered this bad boy and new it was the lipstick for me, I was never very daring when it came to make-up so I knew I wanted something very neutral. Plus it looked really good with my skin tone, it was also right after winter so my skin was very pale. I have since learned that this lipstick (in my opinion) doesn`t suit someone with a darker skin tone, something I learned this summer after getting a nice tan. The lipstick is super moisturising and the wear is very long lasting, not to mention super pigmented which means you don`t need a lot to cover your lips.  Surprisingly, this is not my first one, after an unfortunate over heat the first lipstick I bought snapped off and I used it till it was all gone and repurchased this one. After trying this lipstick for over a year I definitely feel more confident and will definitely be trying out more MAC lip products but I`m not confident enough to spend the money on any of their over products. 

The one complaint I would have with this lipstick is that the blue tones in it really make your teeth look yellow, but I guess that gives me an excuse to start whitening :P I didn`t realize this until looking on their website and came across the description of the lipstick but I still love it no matter what. 

Feel free to comment if you have any recommendations on any other MAC products I should try out, I have been thinking about maybe getting a foundation from them but it would have to be when I go down south later in the year.
