How to Get Free MAC Lipstick

Who doesn’t love getting rewarded with free beauty products?  Some of you probably already know this, but MAC Cosmetics has a recycling program where you can earn a free tube of lipstick.

If you take 6 used containers of MAC makeup back (old eyeshadow cases, lip gloss, foundation bottles, etc.), you get your choice of a free, full-size MAC lipstick (these normally sell for $14.50)  I secretly love finishing a container of makeup… one step closer to free, pretty lips!

Sometimes, I pick out one of my favorite MAC lipsticks that I’m running low on.  Often, I’ll use my freebie to experiment with a new color.

I just picked out this new tube of “Ravishing”.  It’s a coral color.  It looks a little shocking in the tube, but I really love it on my lips.  It’s a good summer color!

So, if you got a free lipstick, which MAC color would you choose?

A “Bombshell” in Pink… Lipstick

Two years ago, I bought the most perfect, beautiful, shiny, wonderfully pink lipstick – MAC Long Stem Rose.

Empty Tube of Long Stem Rose

This is all that is left.  I have scraped everything out of the tube possible.  And of course, the lipstick was a “seasonal” item, and has been discontinued.

For the last year, I have purchased half a dozen tubes of lipstick, searching for the perfect replacement.  I’ve tried Mary Kay, Cover Girl, Revlon, and more MAC… and all have been a sorry peach or nude colored replacement.  Not the perfect pink.

But cue angels singing… I have found it!

MAC Bombshell.  Pink happiness in a tube… and on my lips!
