MAC: Huggable Lipsticks Review + Swatches




Left to Right: Red Necessity, What a Feeling, Feeling Amorous?
Mac, mac, mac.....why doest thou disappoint me? LOL! Seriously though....I'm really disappointed in this collection. I was so excited to get these. As I was shopping online the ones that I wanted to get were selling out and being removed from my cart one by one. So I just said forget it and went to the Mac store in my city. Basically, these were the only ones left of the collection that I wanted. I'm pretty happy about this because I would have had to take them back if I had more.

I have only worn one of them so far. I didn't even feel it to be picture worthy so I didn't take any. The thing I don't like about these is that they don't stay on and you have to rub, rub, rub to really get the color pay off. I usually apply my lip color at the most twice a day. With this lip color, What a Feeling, I had to re-apply it at least 4 times in one day if not more. The formula is super moisturizing so if you are going for more moisture with just a splash of color this formula may be for you. But for me I prefer the Sheen Supreme formula. It is still very moisturizing but it has a lot more staying power than the Huggables. 

On a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the best I give the Mac Huggable Lip color a 3. The colors are pretty and super moisturizing but they do not stay on very long for me.

Influenster: Meaningful Beauty Creme de Serum



I'm a member of Influenster. I received this product for my review. I should have taken photos before I started using it. I have been using it for almost a month. Honestly, I do not notice any difference in my skin. I'm sure if I looked under a microscope I would probably see some type of difference but with my naked eye I don't see anything. I used it it the morning before I put on my makeup. I also use it sometimes at night after I take my makeup off. Also, in the winter my skin is noticeably drier than it is in the other months of the year which makes it kind of hard to notice any type of change.

So....would I purchase this product? probably not especially since I can't pin point exactly what it is doing to my skin. It may just be slowing down the aging process for me but I definitely don't see a change in the amount of wrinkles I had before I started using it.

I am very appreciative of being chosen by Influenster to test it out.
