#Mac fall lipsticks 2016 full#
This lipstick is does not budge at all I had a full meal with it on, and it still looked perfect after. Nothing makes it come off unless I massage an oil-based remover gently on my lips several times. It dries within seconds, which can either be positive or negative depending on how carefully you applied it. Can you believe that this is the only liquid lipstick I own? I’ve always steered clear of liquid lipsticks because they’re too drying on my lips, but I was actually surprised because this Lip Paint formula sits relatively comfortably on the lips. To me, it’s a dark plum in a matte finish, and when applied to my lips, I would say it actually pulls quite brown.
The Sephora website describes Killin’ It as “berry”, but I wouldn’t say it’s berry at all. I kept it around long enough to take pictures of it for this post, but I’ll have to replace it as soon as I can!Ī friend of mine bought this for me for my birthday, but because it’s a dark shade, I haven’t opened it until now. Unfortunately, the tube you see pictured has been thrown out by the time this blog post is up – when I took my tube out to use for the first time this year, I realized the scent is off, which means that it’s likely expired. The wear time is about 2-3 hours before I feel like I need to reapply.
It doesn’t look much darker than NARS Audrey in the swatches, but on the lips it actually is a lot darker. Because the formula is so creamy, I do find it a little bit more high maintenance because it does wear off and shift around more easily without a lip liner underneath than compared to formulas like the Audacious lipsticks. Dark Side is a deep vampy burgundy in MAC’s Amplified finish, which means the formula is creamy and maintains a decent amount of sheen until the colour starts wearing off. Out of all of the lipsticks featured, this one is my ultimate fall favourite. It wears for about 4 hours (without eating) and I’ve also noticed that it wears off quite evenly, which is always a good thing for shades like red. The Audacious lipsticks are quite easy to wear: it isn’t the creamiest formula I’ve tried, but it’s full-coverage, comfortable and moisturizing, and doesn’t move around on the lips. Out of all the three shades mentioned in this post, I would say this one is most easily worn at all times of the year, whereas the other two are dark enough that I imagine most people would wear them only in the fall. On me, it looks lighter on my lips than it does swatched, and I would say it’s a pretty neutral (for lack of a better term) red: not too warm, but not too cool-toned not too bright, but not too vampy. I had been dying to try the Audacious lipsticks since the collection was released, and I purchased this one during last year’s VIB sale. I realized in the last year that while I love pinks, MLBB shades (which is browny-mauve for me) or deep shades look the best on me, so I’ve become very interested in finding red and berry lipsticks that are comfortable and flattering. We are officially into the autumn season, and while I love boots, sweaters, and Pumpkin Spice Lattes as much as the next girl, today I wanted share my ultimate favourite Fall item: dark lipsticks.
