Big Matte Lipstick Lover Here!
Although, this is considered a "matte" finish...it's still applies creamy, not over drying while feeling moisturized. I'm guessing Mac is trying to improve their matte lipsticks. Well, I'm glad they are!
Secondly, I love the purple magenta bold colour of this lipstick. I find it very unique and it's something I do not have at all.I've been looking for something like this for a while now. I don't have Mac Violetta lipstick either so I can't compare.
I am a person who always uses lip liners everytime I wear lipstick or lipgloss. I just feel incomplete without it.
Below, I experimented with Mac Grape Lipliner.....
Here, I experimented with Mac Magenta Lipliner....
It's a total different colour right?
It's really about what look you are trying to achieve and want to have. I'm more into the magenta pink tones though.... Pro:
-Matte while not being over drying (I see this as a good thing!)
-Unique bold colour
-Long Lasting
-Wearable in any season
-Can easily use lipliners to give this unique colour different tones
Con:
-It's limited edition. :( Get it while it's there!
Overall Rating: 5/5

Now my second look....I am in love with! I took many pictures too! I used one of my favourite eyeshadow called Laura Mercier Black Karat. It's just so gorgeous and it's similar to Mac's Guilt by Association which was limited edition.
In these pictures the lipstick appears like Mac Gladiola lipstick but it's really much more different with purple tones in it. Very unique!
