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!

Did any of you guys get the Mac Heroine Lipstick?
If so...how are you liking it? Any recommendations for the eyes to go along with this lip colour?
If you're a fan of pink lipsticks generally and don't mind purple tones... then this lipstick is for you!
True Bold Lipstick Lovers will DIG this shade! No Doubt!

I love this lipstick! It looks fabulous with the Grape liner, and it looks fabulous on you.
Heya Diva! I have Violetta and Heroine does look similar. You look absolutely gorgeous!
I've been debating getting this lipstick...you are making me want it even more now! It looks beautiful on you.
Very beautiful on you and I love the lipliners you pair it with. I had to get this color, it's just too gorgeous to pass up.
so very glad to see u back... :)
LOvely make up as always...
So glad to see you back... Lovely make up as usual...
You absolutely killed this lipstick. Rock on!
I bought it and absolutely love it! is Grape lip liner a pro? permanent? limited edition?
I'm not usually into bold lipsticks, but I can't believe that's a matte colour - it's so creamy!
I love both looks, but the second is my favourite! I would never think to pair that lipstick with the eye look, but it looks really good!
Dropping by on your blog after a long time. I had seen the pics u had posted on facebook and had to take a look at the list of products. You look gorgeous as always and i love how the lipstick looks on you. I think i am going to get the laura mercier eye shadow. Its so pretty! :)
love love loveee!! i need this lippy in my life!!
Loved the two looks! You make the crazy MAC colors wearable! FYI I have been a fan since your YouTube video days, I miss them. :)
This looks so stunning. Did you know Illamasqua released a liquid lipstick that's similar to this color? I don't know if it's an exact dupe, though.
So pretty!! I went to purchase it and it was sold out... *sadface*

You inspired me into the world of make-up and MAC. I found you on youtube a few years back when looking for a purple eyeshadow look for a bank function for work. I was then following you regularly and buying many things you recommended and have benefited from. I am very sad that now you have removed almost all your video's. I will admit I miss all your updates EOTD, FOTD, and hauls. I hope you have a sucessful career in whatever you desire and will check out for you occasionally to see if you're back in the make-up blog game.
