Free anything is great, like those little food samples that Costco hands out or any BOGO deal ever. But free makeup products? That's on a whole other level of awesome. The details of how to get a free MAC lipstick on National Lipstick Day have just been revealed and they are indeed quite delightful. Free lipstick? Did I die and go to heaven? There's never been a better time to add a pout-perfecting product to your beauty arsenal, so start carving some time out of your weekend now to score one completely gratis.
While National Lipstick Day is technically only one day, July 29, MAC is being super generous and giving you the chance to snag a freebie over the course of three days. From July 27 to July 29, you'll take home a full-size lipstick for $0 with any purchase of $25 or more made at MAC stores. You'll be able to choose from eight shades, so there will definitely be a freebie you'll love. If you spend $25 or more online at maccosmetics.com, you'll be able to snag MAC's CB96 lipstick (the brand's "first backstage creation") for free. If you choose to purchase in store, however, the CB96 will also be among the shades you can choose from.
If you spend $50 or more, you'll also be able to snag a super cute free MAC Lipstick Canister to hold all of your brushes in. Finally, MAC stores will be inviting customers to experience a complimentary lip demo where they can choose from over 350 shades in every texture to test drive — it's the perfect occasion at which to discover your go-to fall lipstick.
Need some inspiration as to how to hit those $25 and $50 minimums? Check out some of MAC's best-sellers below.

Complexion Situation

Call me old fashioned, but this is and will forever be my favorite MAC product. MAC's matte lipsticks stay on like no other lipsticks do, so yeah, I'll buy two of these and get a third free.
