My Favourite MAC Products

One of my favourite brands to photograph has always been MAC. It must be the simplicity in the packaging, or the curves of each product. Anyways, I thought "what would be more fitting than a favourite MAC products post". So, here we are. These are products I would repurchase over and over again in a heart beat (minus one being limited edition).

My Favourite MAC Products

By the way, I used a mini stapler to help keep this compact up haha. Being an oily skinned girl, finishing powders are my best friend. The Mac Mineralize Skinfinish sits at the top as being one of my all time favourite finishing powders. It leaves my skin looking matte without being too cakey, and it looks completely natural.

I've been using the same compact for maybe.. 2 years now? Don't really know the shelf life for this product, but it seems to work fine til this day. A little sure does go a long way.

A bit on the pricey side than most powders I know, but for the amount of time I've been using it, it's totally worth it.

I really need to figure out a new set up for taking pictures, because I really hate how yellow this concealer looks. It's really more nude beige in person. I've actually been in the market for a new concealer, and wanted to try a new one from MAC, but my cousin told me that the pro longwear is the best from them. I couldn't agree more. This concealer is amazing in so many ways. It works great for the under eye area because it doesn't crease, and it lives up to its "longwear" name. I only use this concealer on my pimples and blemishes, and it does a great job blending into my foundation and looking completely natural. It has medium coverage that is quite buildable. You can always add more and it'll never get too dry or caked up.

Once again, this foundation is more nude beige in person with a hint of pink undertones, so don't let the picture fool you, I'm not that yellow in real life! This was my all time favourite foundation to wear for the summer last year, and it's absolutely amazing. Not only is it one of my favourite MAC products, it's one of my favourite products of all time. I use this foundation for days I want to look super flawless because of it's buildable coverage formula. It leaves my skin looking beautiful and matte, and has a pretty long lasting power for about 6+ hours on a good day.

I wish I could of put all my MAC lipsticks on here, but there's just too many. I love photographing MAC lipsticks. So simple, yet each shade is just as amazing as the next. 

MAC Heroine (matte finish), Syrup (lustre finish), and Kelly Yum Yum (satin finish)

I love wearing MAC Heroine every season of the year. It's the lipstick that screams "hey look at me, I'm awesome" with it's super vibrant purple flare.

Syrup is the more quiet shade, very natural, very subtle. A simple muted pink/brown that would work for many skin tones.

Now Kelly Yum Yum is a vibrant hot pink that screams for attention. My go to summer shade last year. Being limited edition, it isn't available for purchase anymore, but it's fraternal twin "Candy Yum Yum" is in MAC's permanent line. I fell in love with the purple packaging from the Kelly Osborne make-up line so I had to pick up this lipstick.

I love that MAC has a huge line of lipsticks with different types of finishes, yet the formulation is always consistent with their lipsticks. I don't know one person who has a MAC lipstick they didn't like (or maybe I just haven't run into that person yet).
