Here comes the second part of my lipsticks 'which -end' series! By far my favourite in the field of 'mid-end' lipsticks comes MAC, I'm not sure I would call it 'mid-end' exactly as it is, really, a high-end brand (in that it features in department stores, not drug stores.) But the competitive prices make it hard to compare (price-wise) to the likes of Estee Lauder, Dior and Chanel.

| Yves Rocher Lipstick - Shade 21/ Litchi |
Up first comes the likes of Yves Rocher. A, slightly cheaper, yet quality makeup brand. This fits perfectly into 'mid-end' with it quality pricing, but sours way past high-end with it's quality. I've been in love with this lipstick ever since it arrived in one of my Birchboxes (before they randomly stopped sending them to me that is.) I'd previously owned a fantastic red shade, so seeing a more natural colour for a more day-to-day basis really excited me.
This is available on Yves Rocher's website for purchase at a quality price of £12.90.

| MAC Lipstick - Shade 'Velvet Teddy' |
Following on comes MAC, a brand I'm sure everybody has come to know and love. My favourite shade for the coming months is Velvet Teddy, it's a matte shade, so make sure to apply plenty of lip balm beforehand! Despite the difficulty of making sure my lips are in perfect condition before I apply this out of fear the whole world will see my flakiness, the colour pay-off is incredible and I wouldn't trade it for anything else. It also goes excellent-ly with MAC's lip pencil in 'Whirl' or Rimmel's 'Tiramisu'.
This can be found on the MAC website for a stunning £15.50. A lot to spend in comparison to MUA, but well worth it.
Two parts down, one to go! I hope you're enjying this mini series, I have to say it really helps me post more regularly as it hurts my inner neat-freak much more to see a series left unfinished for two weeks than just no blog post for two weeks!
Anyways, toodlepip my loves! As ever, leave me your recommendations in the comments! xxx
