Mac Frost Lipstick in Fabby


If you've read my mac collection post and my post on mac blankety you will know i've decided to do individual posts on my mac lipsticks (due to providing more swatches and a less lengthy post). So here's my first ever mac lipstick fabby!

As you can tell from the picture I use tabby quite a lot.. it is one of my personal favourites. Colour wise it is a muted pink/mauve colour which has a gold frost/shimmer effect to it which it think is gorgeous. I think it really suits my skin tone and I love it! It's a frost lipstick so it has a lot of shimmer however saying that I don't find this too shimmery on my lips in fact I love the effect it gives. The downfall is that because it's a frost it doesn't last that long on the lips so it needs reapplying but has very good coverage. 

what do you guys think to fabby?

see you soon, han x

MAC Kinda Sexy Lipstick

MAC Kinda Sexy Review/Swatch
MAC Kinda Sexy Swatch
 If you've read my MAC collection post and my post on MAC Blankety lipstick you will know i've decided to do individual posts on my mac lipsticks (due to providing more swatches and a less lengthy post). So here's my post on MAC's Kinda Sexy lipstick!

Kinda Sexy is a peachy/coral toned nude in a matte finish (although it doesn't really look matte in the picture). With it being a matte finish it means that it lasts a lengthy time on the lips.. I've found it to last about 5 hours at least. It is also the most drying finish however I didn't really find kinda sexy that drying... it looks more like a satin finish in the picture I would say. I find kinda sexy is quite bold nude on my lips so I wouldn't wear it everyday but it's definitely a day time colour. Overall i'm happy with the shade but it's not my most loved. 

Tell me what you guys think in the comments!

MAC Myth Lipstick

MAC Myth Lipstick Review and Swatches
MAC Myth Lipstick Review and Swatches

Hey everyone! Surprise Surprise I have another MAC lipstick post and this time it's MAC Myth Lipstick

Myth is a light nude colour (I would say with a hint of peach). I do like it however I'm not in love with it! It's a nice colour to have in my collection. It's perfect for everyday wear and lasts for about 4 hour isn I find. It's a satin finish which means that it's not matte but has a sheen to it. It has good coverage/colour pay off.  I don't find it that drying on my lips, but when my lips are drier I do tend to pair this with a lip balm.

let me know what you guys think...

MAC Blankety Lipstick


MAC Blankety Lipstick Swatch and Review

If you have read my mac collection post I mentioned I would do swatches for my mac lipsticks.. However instead I have decided to create individual posts on them as they all deserve their own feature... in my opinion. Plus you get two individual kinda like swatches on one post rather than just one on my hand if I was to do only one post.

Today I have for you is... blankety! It is a lovely pinky beige nude colour! Perfect for everyday wear.  It is an amplified creme finish which is one of my favourite finishes. It basically means it's pigmented (good colour coverage... so no need to be putting on loads before any colour pay off) and creamy (so glides on the lips nicely). It gives a slight glossy look to you lips and lasts a few hours. Definitely would need a touch up if you are going to be using your mouth a lot aka eating etc. Lastly it doesn't leave you lips feeling dry. I am really loving this shade and would 1000% recommend swatching this or possibly even buying it next time you are near a MAC store.

Let me know your thoughts on MAC lipsticks... what your favourite? what do you want to own?

see you soon, han x

MUA Lipsticks: Lilac Belle, Pouty Pink & Tulip




who doesn't love a £1 lipstick?? 
A few weeks ago now I bought these 3 lipsticks from MUA including 2 matte shades from Superdrug.  They are £1 each if you hadn't of guessed and I got them on 3 for 2. I had been wanting to get a lilac shade so I couldn't resist picking up two more when I was in store.
