You may have noticed I haven't delved into the world of MAC recently, especially since they raised there priced. I was pretty much Mac obsessed (like the rest of youtube) until they raised the prices and I just couldn't justify a whopping £14.50 for a lipstick. Not even as a treat. Mac lipsticks are of insane quality, don't get me wrong, I am in love with them and have around 15 left in my collection and have back up's of some, but recently I found some cheaper alternatives. Rimmel to have some amazing good quality dupes, and for the price of a lip liner and lipstick you can still afford to go for a drink wearing your new lippy in comparison to the mac lipstick prices.
When Mac released the 'Favourites' collection, all those issues went out of the window for me. I literally saw the lipstick and purchased it without question (or any reason) I just went for it. I don't have any regrets of my purchase as the lipstick is probably about as luxurious as I can get. I literally would pick Mac over Chanel. I do absolutely love Candy Yum Yum and am so happy to finally have this in my collection!
Candy Yum Yum really looks great with my new hair (post coming soon!) and I love love LOVE the vibrancy of the pink. Barry M's 52 Lipstick I find to be similar, (its the most comparable in my personal lipstick collection) but its not quite the same. Mac's is much more moisturising but still long lasting. Barry M's is much more drying and is more purple toned. I am so happy to own Candy Yum Yum now, and think its definitely worth the investment.
Sorry for the fuzzy picture, but it shows the true colour well!
Candy Yum Yum applied straight to the lips, no liner.
