MAC Lipsticks are all time favorites and loved and raved about universally. They are known for their quality and unique lipstick shades. Be it their limited edition lipsticks, vivid glam, amplified or their retro matte permanent lipsticks , women go gaga over them. What makes MAC lipsticks stand out is their color diversity and different finishes. MAC is one brand which definitely knows what a woman likes when it comes to lipstick shades. From vivid brights to purple's and nudes , their lipsticks come in an array of perfect shads that help in bringing out the real you! From Bollywood celebrities to makeup artists , everybody are fond of MAC lipsticks.  Its totally understandable why any woman wouldn't want to own a MAC lipstick, but owning two to three lipsticks is okay , but what is to be done when you love almost all shades introduced by MAC , you don't want to be bankrupted . With MAC lipsticks costing almost INR 1500 in India not many women would invest in a MAC lipstick.


Indians have a hard time when it comes to MAC lipsticks, either the good shades are Out Of Stock or they are not duty free , which cost a bomb ! While many woman dreaming owning a MAC lipstick , many of them buy 1st copies of Mac lipsticks which can be termed as fake and are quite harmful for lips as they are faked with a lot of harsh chemicals. Its best to avoid first copies of your favorite lipsticks you cannot afford, instead look for dupes of the lipsticks.
