MAC devotees ?

[BeaLola]

Bought a lovely lipstick and liner today and really liked the range/colours. Any recommendations for anything else they do that is fab so I can try next time I go shopping or alternatively what to avoid ?

Lustreglass is amazing. Strobe Creme/lotion too. They are my 'must have' MAC products.

I like the cream eyeshadow bases called paintpots. Also use their brow pencil called fling which is perfect for me (pale and blonde). My fave lipstick is called patisserie.

Another one who swears by strobe cream. Mix it with their foundation and slap it on. You'll be glowing.

Mac face and body foundation and their pro longwear concealer are ace

Love their eyeshadows as they blend really well. Lipsticks are great. Have millions of them.

Love their blushers and have loads of them!
I have had tried lots of their stuff over the years and the only thing I was impressed with was the mascara.
I don't treat myself as much anymore but have found a great cheaper alternative - an Italian brand called Kiko. Worth a look.

Fix+ is amazing, spray if before foundation as a lovely base or after to completely get rid of any cakiness and make you glow!
Also agree with strobe cream, it's brilliant.

I love MAC. Lipsticks in particular. My favourites are craving, captive, sophisto, sweetie and syrup. These are all mostly pinks/plums. I also love the Dollymix blusher and Face and Body foundation.

Strobe cream!

Amazing, god knows what's in it

If you have time book yourself a makeover at one of their counters. The cost is redeemable against purchase so if you are buying one or two things the application is essentially free. I have had a few (usually before going out so I didn't have to do my own makeup) and I've only had one dodgy one. In that particular case I just wasn't clear enough what I wanted so it was a bit too dramatic for my tastes but all the other times when I've been specific about the colours and general look I like its been great. I've tried things I never would have dared off my own bat and really liked the results.

Prolongwear foundation. Their blushes r fab. Mascara the false lash one.

I love their facepowder. The lipsticks and certain eyeshadows are great.
I have not been too impressed with other products though.

Their mascara made my eyes sting.
Their foundation made me look orange. I had my make up done in the store and bought the foundation they used on me.
In proper daylight it wasn't great.

They do have great brushes and I like their eye primer.

I used to use strobe cream a lot, but then I realised that it was that that was making my face glow bright white in flash photographs!

MAC eyeshadows are just the best, Ruby Woo lipstick, their lip glasses etc. have got a blusher called dollymix that I love as well.

Foundations and mascaras not so much.

I second the PP who said to book a makeover. The cost is totally redeemable against purchases, and I've learned loads. I think their eyeshadows are gorgeous. I'm less keen on their foundations and concealers, but have also had success with their bronzer and lip pencils (great range of colours)

I love the following two colours: mehr and velvet teddy. I want taupe next.

Have used spite lipglass since 1997

I have had some Strobecream sitting in a drawer since my wedding, unopened.
What do I do with it?!

I used to be an absolute Mac devotee, as in almost everything was MAC! I am now more evenly split between NARS and Mac but agree with the others who have said book a makeover.

In my make up bag, the Mac primers are great. If I have time in the morning, I use the eyelash, eye and lip. I switched to the nars primer but nothing wrong with the Mac one, it's good.

The face and body foundation is good and intend to use that in winter, I did use their tinted moisturiser but prefer the nars one these days. I agree about the strobe cream.

The eye shadows and blushers are fantastic.

Avoid the mascaras, I have never really rated them, or the eye pencils.

pontypine another Teddy eyeliner fan here but I've got blue eyes. I love their eye shadow, face powder and their brilliant eyebrow pencils. Don't rate their mascara much though.

Lipsticks - I have several and eyeshadows - again several different colours.

Never use their mascara and am currently using their foundation but am still (5 years on) really missing prescriptives!

I got face and body foundation for my wedding last year and it is still going strong, along with mascara (false lash one) and eyeliner - which both irritated my eyes sadly. The strobe stuff was brilliant and the fix spray really works too.
I like it but found out that they have started testing on animals again so I'm not going to restock when I run out of stuff, which is a shame.

Do you wear the strobe cream under make up or on it's own? What does it do?
