MAC nudes favourites

A natural look with nude lips are right up my street for an everyday look. 

I'm not very daring when it comes to lippy's because I don't like to attract too much attention to my lips. So, when it comes to lipsticks I prefer nudes over colours. 

Whilst looking through my make up bag the other day, I realised that most of my favourite lipsticks are actually MAC nudes. Since I know many of you beauty lovers are suckers for MAC I thought I'd share these beauties with you :) 

First (from the left) is Pretty Please, this is a baby pink shimmery shade which is part of the MAC "lustre" range. I find this one to be not very pigmented as one coat almost comes out clear on the lips. It is probably my least favourite of the few, but only because I have started to go-off light pink colours. Nevertheless, it is still a very cute colour and I enjoy wearing it on days where I have minimal make-up on.

Second from left is Creme in your Coffee this is a gorgeous winter lippy. I love wearing this on winter days where I am wearing thick plain jumpers as it just add a bit of colour to my face. This is a cremesheen so the texture is quite creamy and dewy-making it even better for winter as it stops you getting dry lips.

The middle one is the V shade that's part of MAC's "Viva Glam" collection. It is definitely one that I enjoy wearing in the summer as it's quite shimmery and I find that the glitter is visible on the lips. It is probably the ones I have used the least as I am not as much of a fan of shimmery lipsticks. But I certainly still really like it. I'd say one of the down sides of this one is that the shimmers make the texture a bit "granulated" and it feels a bit rough on your lips. I also find that as a result of this it can be a bit drying.

This next one is probably my most used from the five lipsticks shown above and as you can probably recognise it it's Creme Cup. This was my go-to lipstick throughout the whole of last summer. Pink is my favourite colour so I literally LOVED this lipstick. Once again it was part of MAC's "cremesheen's" so it's quite a dewy texture which keeps your lips moisturised during the day.

Last but not least is my current favourite Honey Love. I have been wearing this one every day for the past 4 months. I absolutely love it! It is part of the MAC "matte" range- initially I was a bit hesitant to try it because I find that mattes can be a bit drying but actually this one is quite a dewy matte. It's very long lasting (even after meals) and it's a MUST-have addition to a "nudes" collection. 

Personally if I was to recommend 2 of these as "must-have" nudes, my pick would definitely be Honey Love and Creme Cup. I would also add in Hue as it is another one of my fave's that I have bought over and over again :)

Here are some swatches of each one I mentioned (in the order that they're listed above) to give you a better idea of what they look like.

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
