MAC Lipstick: Cyber

Hi Girlies :) sooooo, yep I pretty much dropped off the earth for a little while eeekk sorry about that. But I'm back and bringing with me yet another trusty MAC lipstick review.

So this lil dark colour is called Cyber and is part of MACs Satin Lipstick collection. I saw it on one of the makeup artists instore the other day and absolutely loved it on her. She had gorgeous dark skin and had used Cyber on the outside of her lips and a lighter pink on the inside subtly merging the two which looked swell.

The colour is a very deep dark and mysterious purple. So deep it almost looks black which is quite intimidating when you first think you'll have to apply it to your lips! After topping up with some fake tan I braved it though and I love the colour. Definitely a dark plum I'll be wearing in Autumn this year. What do you think?

MAC Lipstick: Up the Amp

 

Hey Girlies, Hope you've all been enjoying the Olympics :) Team GB all the way!

As you know I'm a sucker for a MAC lipstick and I've splurged again on yet another. I was hankering for a purple/lilac for Summer and after waiting around the MAC store three times (darn their queues!) I finally got one. The colour is Amplified Creme Lipstick: Up the Amp and is a beautifully opaque lilac colour. My little Samsung Galaxy photos are not doing this lipstick justice which is annoying but hopefully the photos below help a bit more. 

It's beautifully creamy which is the key to all great lipsticks and glides on easily. It's more of a subtle colour than my usual choices but still a noticable lilac. The colour is very pretty and girly and so I've been pairing it with summer pastel colours dresses, florals and bows. All I need now is for the sun to come out!

Love LC
