Back2MAC

My favourite ever ever ever makeup brand in the world is MAC. I could happily buy all of my makeup from there and nowhere else (if I had the money). I heard about 'Back2MAC' a few months ago and I think it's such a great idea and I've been itching to take advantage of the scheme since I heard.

For those of you who don't know the ins and outs of it, Back2MAC is a deal where if you take in the packaging of six empty products- not the cardboard boxes that they come in, just the glass/plastic container that actually holds the product, they will give you any free lipstick except for the VivaGlam ones as the money from them goes to charity.

I was so excited when I went into town on Monday as I had finally used up six products and popped them all into a little bag on the shelf by the door to take with me when I left. Well... I'm sure you can guess what happened- I forgot to take my empties! I only realised when I walked past the MAC counter and almost stamped my foot in frustration!

Anyway, I'm quite glad that I have a little more time to decide on the freebie lipstick, as there is such a big choice, I just cant decide! I think I have narrowed it down to 4 candidates- Red Racer from the Hello Sailor summer collection, Saint Germain- a perfect barbie pink, Morange- a bright orange, not like any others I have or my absolute favourite ever lipstick- Creme Cup. I already own one of this shade, but I use it so often that I could always do with a backup.

My husband thinks I'm crazy- so much deliberation over one shade of lipstick! But I've been collecting my empties for so long now, I don't want to pick a bad one and have wasted them!

What are your favourite MAC lipsticks? Which would you pick?
