Hi everyone!
As this is our first post on our brand spanking new blog, we thought it was only right to do something that is close to all our hearts.. Yep you guessed it.. LIPSTICKS!
I'm sure everyone has at least one MAC lipstick that's their fave! We on the hand have collated a few favourites between us that we have to share with you. We've picked quite a mix of colours, we're sure one will tickle your fancy!
1. Ruby Woo / Matte finish - The perfect go-to for a bold red lip, it has a blue undertone so it really compliments cooler toned skin. A lip liner with this is a must.
Dupe Alert! Rimmel London Lasting Finish Matte by Kate Moss in Shade 111
2. All Fired Up / Retro Matte finish - Such a pretty colour, looks really good on medium/dark skin tones, very statement! The texture of the Retro Matte finishes are matte obviously, but we do advise you to moisturise your lips before applying this as it is a lot more matte than the ordinary matte finish lipsticks, you don't want your lips to look dry and flaky. Overall the formula is extremely creamy, very long lasting and the colour pay off is amazing!
3. Heroine / Matte finish - Again, like All Fired Up, this is also such a pretty colour, very daring.. Simple eyes with this lip will look spot on!
4. Chilli / Matte finish - Muted redish Orange colour, we noticed this looks different on each of us (strange, I know).
5. Amorous / Satin finish - A deep purple colour, a little like Rebel but not as intense and a lot more moisturising.
6. Twig / Satin finish - An all time favourite! It's a nice mix between a dark pink/purple, definitely an everyday shade.
7. Verve / Satin finish - If you're someone that likes Brown's, this is perfect for you!
8. Taupe / Matte finish - Again, another Brown but not as intense as Verve, this can be used on top of other bolder lip colours to mute the intensity a little.
9. Velvet Teddy / Matte finish - It's finally back in stock and back in our lives! This is definitely our all time favourite Nude lipstick.. Always a go-to! It's ideal for an everyday lipstick, especially if you're medium/dark skin toned, it's not too light or too dark so if you're looking for a perfect Nude, this is the one!
Dupe Alert! Revlon - Mauve it Over
On to the swatches -
As you can tell we prefer the matte and satin finishes!
TIP! If whenever you want to matte a lipstick down, dab a little powder on your finger and lightly dust your lips, you'll instantly have matte lips!
What are your favourite MAC lipsticks?
We hope you enjoyed this post, until the next one!
