My top 5 MAC lipsticks so far

I haven't been as into MAC lately to be honest, I keep turning my lust have lists to Charlotte Tilbury and NARS but you can't deny MAC has got it when it comes to lipsticks. I own around 12 at the moment and I do I have quite a few on my list like  'Velvet Teddy' and 'Twig' as they have been real hyped up lately. In most blogger chats; a lot of the time it's  - what's your favourite MAC lipstick? so I thought I would share mine!
1. First up is Russian Red, I think this will always be my favourite and the one I will always pick when asked for my favourite. It's the one I know I can always depend on for a night out. The perfect classic red and not as drying as Ruby Woo. 
2. Yield to Love is next up, this is a limited edition ( Sorry!) but as soon as I bought this I loved it, it's a beautiful mauve shade, my shade but better. 
3. Red Balloon was an unexpected favourite, I don't usually go for bright pinks and this was an eye opener, I really want some more pinks. This was a limited edition as well ( sorry...again!) but MAC's 'all fired up' is a great alternative. 
4. Next up we have plumful, this is a more purpley mauve, and lookss great on. I love to wear this to add a little more to my make up look rather then a colour similar to my own lips. 
5. Lastly is Hearts Aflame, another limited edition ( SORRY, I really am!) this is a beautiful brick red, MACs Diva or Darkside would be a great alternatives. 
What are your favourite shades?

Beauty: Review - MAC Russian Red & L'oreal TXT

Hello dears,
If you were to ever own a red lipstick. Make it this one.
MAC russian red..... I though I had seen and owned red lipsticks but no, I was incomplete. All my reds tend to be more berry tinted and the other bright reds I owned are too orangey or pinkish( topshop screen siren) and then I got this bad boy. The most perfect shade of red. Everyone knows that MAC lipsticks are the top dogs so yes they may be double the price of the high street but they are well worth it. It isn't patchy or dry on the lips and doesn't come off so easily.


Something else I recently stocked up on is the L'oreal TXT spray  which I got because Zoella reviewed it as a volumising spray without any shine. My main issue with back-combing is the damage it does and how tangled your hair gets and then applying the hairspray my hair ends up so ridiculously shiny its untrue. There is also the problem that my hair becomes too stiff so I thought I would give it a try. I love it!!! It does give your hair a nice little lift, if you want some insane height your best back-coming but for that nice little bit of volume its perfect! and my hair is still soft, unshiny and most importantly doesn't look like I have thrown on heaps of products. It's around the same price as a hairspray and I would definitely recommend investing, I still give my overall hair a quick spray so don't get rid of the hairspray just yet - use it lightly to fix waves. Here is a nice little pic of me the other week before going out, I have waved my hair with a wand and spruced it up with a bit of TXT.



Also I have just discovered MAC instigator and devastated its sold out EVERYWHERE.
