What one have you been using most recently?
Definitely has to be Cyber been loving it at the moment!
What was your first lipstick?
Fabby was my first which I got when I visited Manchester Airport.
Most recommended lipstick from collection?
erm.. I would say creme cup or myth or velvet teddy.. anyone can work one of these lovely shades! apologies if you feel you can't.
Velvet Teddy I got it for christmas from my sister.
What's the most expensive?
The majority of these cost £15.50 however the most expensive is Be fabulous costing £20 as it's a part of the mineralise rich collection.
Where do you get your lipsticks from?
Mainly online (fragrance direct, debenhams or MAC's site) as I don't live close to a MAC counter. However when in Norwich I go to Jarrolds (although I feel awkward going in there sometimes due to some of their staff), & Occasional airport.
Now you know a few things about my collection I want to share with you my main aim from doing this post. As I live far away from a MAC store/supplier I spend a lot of time.. hours searching for swatches of the lipstick debating on which I want. So I'm going to do a series including swatches so I can hopefully help some of you guys decide on what lipsticks you may like to purchase.
*Update since writing this post (4th September 2015)... I have since expanded my collection after my initial post. Adding the likes of Velvet Teddy, St Germain, Brave, Fleshpot, Sunny Seoul, Lovelorn and Riot House. So currently the total is 28 (please don't see this as bragging). Let me know of any questions you might want answering about my collection. Also I would love some recommendations on which ones I should look out for (future buys)..
see you soon, han x
