MAC Lipstick Faux Review

This is my favourite MAC lipstick. Yes, that might be a bold claim, and yes there may be another MAC lipstick out there that I’ll love more, but as of right now this is my all time favourite. The lipstick I am talking about is Faux and it has a Satin finish. If you’re curious about my MAC lipstick collection, I have a post of my full collection!

This is my MAC Lipstick Faux Review!

I love the Satin range, as you get the semi matte finish, and it isn’t drying at all. The colour pay off is amazing too, as you aren’t left swiping for hours trying to build up an opaque colour. It applies really easily, as it is smooth and a little creamy. I also find that it lasts a good 4-5 hours, and that was with eating and drinking, but I would reapply after just to build the colour back up. It also fades nicely, without leaving that horrid ring.

Faux is described as a muted mauve pink, so if you love your nudes then you’ll love this one. It is perfect for everyday, and if I’m ever unsure about a lip colour, this is my safe go to option because it goes with just about anything!

The Swatch

If you’re after a Kardashian esque lipstick then you may want to give this one a try! Or if you love a nude shade in general. I’ve been wearing this for occasions, and day-to-day wear. It’s an amazing all-rounder.

You can get Faux from MAC for £17.50.

That was my MAC Lipstick Faux Review.

Have you tried Faux?

Thank you for reading!

    Your photos are stunning, Hannah! I’m impressed that this lasts so long, even through eating and drinking! I definitely agree with Violette, this is the perfect summer shade! I need to find myself a cruelty free dupe of this so that I can wear it too! Thanks so much for sharing, fab post!

Current mood: Sitting by a pool in Greece sipping a freddo cappuccino😍

Actual reality: Staring at my kettle in the UK wishing it could do magic tricks😭

Is it actually worth investing in a proper coffee machine? And more importantly, which one should I get?

I actually only like iced coffee, so I’m not sure if a machine is for me, but there’s got to be a way… right?😭😂

Spent the first half of the month melting on a beautiful beach on holiday, and the second half melting in my own house🫠 

Swipe to see how hot it was in Ella’s room, just in time for bedtime🙃

Isn’t the heatwave supposed to be coming back too? Send prayers (and fans)😂 How did you survive the  heat?!

Real talk family dinner review!🤍 (Gifted/ invite) Real talk family dinner review!🤍
(Gifted/ invite)

We treated the kids to a meal out at weathervanemeirpark this weekend, and the family vibes were lovely. One of the biggest wins was that the staff brought over colouring pages and crayons for both kids without us even having to ask. Which is a lifesaver with two toddlers🥵

Noah and Ella were completely won over by the food. Noah cleared his plate of sausage, chips, and beans, and Ella was living her best life with pasta, corn on the cob, and chips (a toddler dream combo, let’s be real😂)

As for the adults, Jake loved The Big Melt burger. I ordered the Katsu Curry Feast, and we did have a little hiccup where my chicken looked a little pink, but I always judge a place by how they handle mistakes. The staff were absolutely brilliant, replaced it immediately, and even brought over a complimentary drink to apologise. Great customer service honestly makes all the difference.🫶🏻

It’s a super welcoming, stress free spot if you’re looking for somewhere to take the kids this weekend. 

Swipe to the very end to see Ella making sure no ice cream got left behind😂

What’s your ultimate go to meal when you eat out with the family?🍽️

Yesterday we headed to Drayton Manor for the first time, and we absolutely loved it! 🚂

The highlights:

🎢 We managed to hit all the rides we wanted.

⏱️ Queue times were super manageable—the longest we waited was 30 minutes, which is the absolute limit with a 1 and 3-year-old! 😂

🥵 It was too hot to make it to the zoo this time, but with animal-loving toddlers, we will definitely be back to check it out. 🐯

Have you been to Drayton Manor before? 

What’s your ultimate tip for taking toddlers to theme parks in the heat? 👇🏼
