Claims: According to MAC's website their lipsticks provide, "Colour plus texture for the lips...".
Actual Experience: They certainly provide color and texture for lips with their EIGHT DIFFERENT FINISHES! Amplified (rich colour, what you see is what you get), amplified cream (rich colour, what you see is what you get but with a sheen finish), cremesheen (not quite as rich as an amplified creme, sheen finish), frost (color is somewhat pigmented, very shiny and I don't recommend for anyone), glaze (fairly sheer, can have chunky glittery finish), lustre (sheer-medium pigmentation, shimmery but not chunky), matte (completely matte, colour drenched), and satin (very pigmented, very slight sheen).
My colour that I wear every day is High Tea (lustre). It is the perfect nudish, peachy, neutral colour for daytime or anytime wear. Not harsh, and not overbearing (your lips but better).
Buy or Avoid: Buy (if you have the extra cash). I honestly don't think that even Sephora can top the amount of finishes that MAC provides. You may be able to find something similar at the drugstore but most likely it will not have the same finish and this can really make or break a lipstick.
This product was bought with my own money
