MAC Velvetease Lip Pencil - Lover's Lane

Hi everyone! I hope you are all well. Today I thought I'd share with you all this gorgeous Velvetease Lip Pencil by MAC in the shade called Lover's Lane; a bright medium-dark orange with red undertones. I've been wanting to find a NARS lip crayon alternative and I think i've found one! This pencil has a super creamy formula that applies like a dream and dries to a slightly matte finish. I wore this for 4 hours and it lasted really well and hardly any lipstick transferred at all! Velvetease Lip Pencils retail for £17.50 and are available online here. I can't wait to try more shades!

MAC Retro Matte Liquid Lip Colour - Tailored To Tease

Hi guys! How are you? Today I have another Mac Retro Matte Liquid Lip Colour to show you in the shade Tailored To Tease; a stunning bright fuschia plum mix. (RRP £21.00, available online here). Retro mattes apply like a dream and last even better (check out my previous blog post on other shades here). Have you tried any of these yet?

MAC - Isabel & Ruben Toledo Modern Twist Lash Mascara (LE)

Hi everyone! Today I have a review of the MAC - Isabel & Ruben Toledo Modern Twist Lash mascara in the shade Caligrafy. The shade is a gorgeous dark navy with light blue micro shimmers in it. It's a really subtle but beautiful colour that will make your eyes pop in an intriguing way. The brush is very curvy and I did find it a bit difficult to apply. I found myself smudging mascara on my eyelids with the dip in the brush. Saying this, I did find that it lifted and brightened my brown eyes very nicely. As this collection was limited, it is no longer available but you might be lucky and find it online somewhere. This mascara retails for £24.80.

 

MAC - Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolour Swatches

Hi guys! It's been a while. I must find the motivation to blog more often but I'm just so tired when coming home from work. I have lots of new goodies to review for you though but today I am showing you the brand new Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolours by MAC. There are tons of shades but I only have 2 (so far). The two colours I'll be showing you are Too Matte With Love; a beautiful bright raspberry and Rich & Restless; A midtone pinky salmon. The formula on these are really good. They're easy to apply, completely opaque (although some of the darker shades look like they need a bit of playing around with application) and dry to a  completely matte finish. In terms of longevity, they don't last as well as Velvetines (only matte liquid lipsticks I've tried so far). After about 4-5 hours they start feathering from the inner lip area. Overall this is a super exciting product from MAC and I'm glad they finally released their take on the liquid lipstick. They have some really exciting shades too so be sure to have a look online or at your nearest counter. MAC - Retro Matte Liquid Lipcolours retail for £21.00 (available online here).

MAC - Please Me Lipstick + Extended Play Lash Mascara Review

Hi lovely people! I have two new MAC products to share with you that I recently picked up! The first being the Extended Play Lash Mascara in the shade Endlessly Black (RRP £15.00) and a Limited Edition packaged lipstick called Please Me which is a stunning muted-rosy-tinted pink matte shade (RRP £15.50). There is nothing negative I can say about these two products. MAC is always reliable and their quality never falters. The lipstick is super creamy and pigmented and the mascara is my new favourite everyday mascara for subtle, groomed lashes. It is definitely buildable for a more dramatic look too! Here's a look at some photos.

MAC - Party Parrot Lipstick Review

Enter my current $50AUD gift voucher giveaway here!

Hellloooo! Today i'm very excited to share with you a colour from a new collection by MAC called Strength. I don't find myself eagerly wanting new lipsticks every time a new collection comes out, but this one caught my eye and I knew I had to have it! Party Parrot is such an amazing bright cantaloupe melon semi-matte lipstick. The girl at the MAC counter said it was full matte, but I don't think it is as it feels so smooth and not dry at all on my lips. It is so gorgeous and easy to apply. I really like colours that compliment my skin tone and because I am quite tanned I can easily pull off bright, almost neon-like colours during day or night. I've worn this during the day out to the city and it lasts okay. . because it is quite creamy it comes off a bit too fast.. especially when I kiss my boyfriend. . . he always quickly wipes his mouth to get any transferred lipstick off :-P Nonetheless, a purchase well deserved and I can see this being a regular in my winter make-up routine. Bright colours in winter. . .yes please!

 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed this post!
