Rant & Rave: MAC

Tell us what you love and hate about...

Rave: They have a huge selection of permanent products, and they’re true mainstays–they don’t have a constant cycle of new-in, old-out when it comes to those ranges, so it can be relied upon.

They also need to update their core range of products as they have discontinued some shades (without replacing) in the last couple of years.

What was the last hyped-up product you were unimpressed with?
