MAC FALL LIPSTICKS 2016 SKIN
Remember, choose MAC lipstick shades that will look best against your skin tone and undertones, not just one that looks pretty in the tube. You can shop for yourself or a friend and always manage to pick a fabulous shade. There are a few exceptions that will work on multiple skin tones like the famous, trendsetting Ruby Woo, but in this article, we’ll be specific to skin tone. Retailing at SGD 44 each, September onwards (Singapore release dates).To help you out, we’ve picked the best MAC lipsticks based on the skin tones they work best for. If you are hooked on reds or pinks like me, these are two beautiful additions to your collection. Therefore touch ups aren’t needed as often as any other regular lipstick. I also find they stain a bit and wear out evenly. The pigmentation as you’d expect is also out of this world and boasts very long wear even though they do transfer with eating and drinking. I can’t recall how the other three swatched though (it was over a month ago since previewing these). Both shades are silkier, and glide on like butter. I’m sensing there’s a slight improvement in formula. I’d say Stefania contains slightly more purple hues too, a colour which would look stunning on olive complexions. However after comparison, I found Michiyo much lighter in tone and brighter. This applies much brighter than expected, and obviously I love the result!Īt first swatch I imagined Michiyo to be a very close dupe. P.S- Have I ever mentioned the NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencils are one of my all time favourite products? Well now you know! Richly pigmented and less drying than most matte lipsticks out there. If you prefer a matte lip, NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencils are such an amazing formula. This new lipstick just glides on like BUTTER.Ĭonsuming Red, the latest Velvet Matte Lip Pencil from fall 2016 is also quite similar, so I threw this into the swatch comparison as well.
I also found Shirley to have more slip and a silkier formula to Jeanne. Almost Identical when worn, though Shirley heavier on the reds in comparison to Jeanne which is ‘brown-er’. The others are either Velvet Matte Lip pencils or Cinamatic Lipsticks) (I’ve marked the Audacious shades with a *. Here’re some of my NARS reds I find work well for comparisons. Consider me sold! I am LOVING this shade for fall. This is one to look into.Īs I’m not so much into the deeper reds I figured I won’t get much use off this. The perfect deep, rich red with a warm undertone. Shirley is your go-to Fall statement lip. I’ve received two as press samples & since i’ve already reviewed the formula before ( HERE), I thought i’d focus on a comparison swatch post against a bunch from my existing NARS collection. This fall NARS launched 5 more Audacious lipsticks (replacing 5 others which will be discontinued. I still believe it’s THE best pigmented lipstick that… ever lived. The pigmentation and formula was soooo on point! And to be very honest, I haven’t seen any other cream lipstick outperform the pigmentation of these Audacious lipsticks since then. I remember seeing them at the preview and thinking wow, I pretty much need them all! It was pure makeup porn! I swear. One of the first brands to ever come out with lipsticks in such a huge colour range. It seems so long ago that NARS released their initial Audacious lipstick collection.
