For years I believed MAC was the end all be all in cosmetics. But then I was introduced to Benefit and Nars. Now I've experienced lines such as UD, Mufe, and other lines. I rarely by MAC now and a part of me feels guilty like I have betrayed my lover. Anyone else ever had a fav brand that they now don't buy like they use to.

I was a big time MAC snob..was only buying it bc of the name and because it supposedly "the best"...realized one day that I looked orange and that cheaper brands/products outperformed theirs. Def 💜 NARS now. I use it all..high end to low end. Only thing I really get from MAC now is eyeshadows and MSF.

MAC is definitely a gateway "drug" to makeup obsession. I know it was the first line I truly played with and it opened the doors for me to explore other brands. Though now I'm a major hoarder of MAC lipsticks.

I love mac but right now I started dating Nars and I'm in love lol but my favorite lipsticks are still Mac.

I cut Mac off right away because the foundation jacked up my face so bad and the workers in San Antonio looked like orange clowns. After seeing Traci obsess over their lippies I really want to try them again!! I'm a urban decay and benefit girl!!

I was protesting Mac..
we have a love/hate relationship. that old bf I can't let go of. I told him. "MAC, you b on bulls**t. I can't mess with you like that. this color is the same as the other just matte. you played me". then he does something fab or then I try someone else and they don't have the same finish or don't blend like I'm used to and I go back pissed. Lmao..
but I have kind of let go of Mac shadows all together. its just too overpriced n other stuff out there with great pigment. but I do live mineralized foundation, lipstick, lipglass, and blush. but I think I may end up having an affair with mufe. lol

This thread is hilarious! MAC was definitely my gateway drug into high end. Traci I think your beloved Nars might be having an affair with me ;) Those blushes catch my eye every time I'm in Sephora lol. I come home with a Sephora bag and my boyfriend tries to guess whiff Nars shade I bought this time lmao.

Ha ha! we're such tramps! I actually never considered myself in a committed relationship with MAC though so the fact that I am involved with many other lines isn't too guilt inducing. Group orgies are awesome.
