There’s also a universal bookmark option for specific photos, users, or hashtags, so you can find them again quickly from whatever account you happen to be signed into. For years, Instagram users have begged for this feature on smartphones, which comes in handy for those of us who depend upon the service for personal as well as business use. Although it can’t be used to actually upload photos from the Mac due to an API restriction, Grids otherwise improves the Instagram experience in several ways.įirst of all, there’s support for multiple accounts, and you can switch between them in seconds with the click of a mouse. Grids for Instagram puts more emphasis on photos than user interface, and the result feels like a native Mac application Facebook might have built if they chose to do so. With support for Retina Displays and full-screen mode, Grids makes Instagram photos look their best on the Mac. Even after Facebook acquired the service in 2012, Instagram remains stubbornly mobile-first, despite the efforts of developers like ThinkTime, who keep trying to expand its reach. Sure, you can use a web browser to search or view images, but it feels like something the company grudgingly maintains. Instagram is also oddly walled off from desktop computers.
INSTAGRAM FOR MAC REVIEW UPDATE
After all, third-party apps aren’t permitted to upload images to the service at all, and nearly six years after the debut of the iPad, there’s still no tablet-optimized iOS update to be found. She also credits chatting to her makeup artist in order to "review a variety of makeup looks" and brainstorm a look "that fits her best." Given the amount of Lisa-donned looks I have in my Instagram saved folder, I'd say her success rate is very high.Considering Instagram’s baked-in limitations, it’s a miracle the photo-centric social network has become as wildly popular as it has. "I get inspiration from everywhere, everyone, and everything in my life, including movies that I love," Lisa says. Undoubtedly, her time spent and memories made with fellow Blackpink members Rosé, Jennie, and Jisoo have made their way into this collection. And though Lisa is clearly referencing her favorite flower, I can't help but think that the shade name is also a tiny nod to her bandmate, Rosé. "The texture is moist and when I apply it on my lips, it glides on naturally and looks like a dried rose - so I named it Pink Roses." I think I've just found my new my-lips-but-better shade. "This is my favorite, toned-down pink color," she divulges. Out of the six total Powder Kiss Liquid Lipcolour shades, I can only assume that Pink Roses would be Lisa's desert-island lipstick.
In fact, I'm already picturing myself wearing it on New Year's Eve so I start off 2022 feeling confident and, well, looking lit from within.
INSTAGRAM FOR MAC REVIEW SKIN
You can do no wrong here.) The sole shade, Show Gold (peach with a hint of soft pink), lends skin a hit of warm radiance. (Take it from a seasoned MAC highlighter user. Whereas you have to be careful applying the eyeliner, you can sweep Extra Dimension Skinfinish on however and wherever you'd like. The Brushstroke liner (which comes in Black and Brown) has a sharp and precise but also flexible felt tip that gives the user the perfect amount of control - no skipping or tugging involved. "I was also able to give a clear, strong look to the eyes with the eyeliner and added depth with some highlighter."
"Thanks to the diverse shades in the eye shadow palette, I was able to present natural yet stunning color combinations," she explains. For a recent photo shoot, Lisa lets me know that she created an entire look using MAC x L items. At this point, I have to ask: How does she like to wear her makeup products? After all, she was thoroughly involved in the testing and development processes for this collection.
