MAC Cosmetics is offering 25 per cent off all its products in stores across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, Lebanon and Jordan, and its online websites in the UAE and KSA until Sunday.

There’s a huge variety of products to choose from, but here are five of our favourites:

MAC Vanilla pigment: This pigment is anything but vanilla. A multi-purpose wonder, it can be used as a highlight on your cheeks and under the brow bone, as well as an eyeshadow. You can also add a teaspoon to your setting spray to add a little dewiness to your finished look, or add some to clear nail polish to create a beautiful nail colour of your own.

MAC Fix+: A must-have in many make-up artists’ kit, Fix+ not only helps set the make-up in place but also refresh it during the day. You can also spritz some on an eyeshadow brush to get an intense wash of colour on the lid.

MAC Ruby Woo lipstick: A cool-toned red lipstick, this is one shade that suits almost every skin tone. Matte and long-wearing, it is advisable that you moisturise your lips before application, as it can be a bit drying, but the pigment and colour make it totally worth it.

MAC Lip Pencil in Soar: Kylie Jenner put this lip pencil on the map, and while that alone may not be the secret behind her plumped lips, this soft dusty pink with brown undertones is absolutely stunning. On lighter skintones, it shows up quite bold, but on dark skintones it makes for the perfect nude. It can be worn alone, or mixed and matched with other lipsticks.

MAC 217 Blending Brush: One of the best eyeshadow blending brushes on the market, many companies have tried to ‘dupe’ it, but nothing beats the flawless blended result this brush provides.
