Left: MAC Pro Longwear Creme in Love Forever
This fuschia shade has a lovely creamy finish with a little shine and full opaque coverage. It is very bold, for those wanting a slightly paler colour I'd recommend 'Dress It Up' from the same collection. The lipstick wears very well, possibly not the 12 hours that MAC claims it should, but many hours with eating and drinking with hardly any transfer (yes, this would be the lipstick I'd wear on a date) I did find, however, that the circular lipstick column does make it harder to apply to the cupid's bow of my lips, but it's such a fantastic lipstick that I'll get used to it (fast!). A few dabs of the colour is all I need and then rub my lips together to spread the colour. All in all, a great product by MAC.
Centre: MAC Sheen Supreme in Royal Azalea
This is a bright mid-tone pink with a lightweight formula giving semi-opaque coverage. It's got a lovely vanilla scent that has always reminded me of victoria sponge cake but no taste (unfortunately! Or fortunately, because I'd be licking it off all the time if it tasted of cake too) They are glossy but not very long-lasting and never apply on already balmed lips because it completely ruins the already fragile consistency.
Right: MAC Amplified Creme Lipstick in Saint Germain
This bright pastel pink is a bold choice when it comes to pink lipsticks, it's a stand-out candy floss colour which uses the same vanilla scent as other MAC lipsticks. The shape of this lipstick is great as the narrower top is useful when applying to the cupid's bow of lips and at the edges of the mouth. It is a very smooth formula and quite moisturising, the only downside is that is does not last that long (only a few hours) and you will need to reapply to get the full burst of colour, but it is beautiful and if you're looking for a Barbie pink: this is the one!
