MAC Vegas Volt Lipstick

As I mentioned in a previous post, my parents brought me back this lipstick when they went on holiday. I first saw it on Milly's blog and was seriously wowed at how stunning it is. Then I saw it on my favourite beauty blog Vivianna Does Makeup and I was totally swayed towards buying it. Every May or so, Coral becomes the 'it' summer make up colour, whether it be for nails, lips or cheeks. Coral coloured make up also looks brilliant with a variety of different skin tones, which makes it very easy and versatile to wear.

I think I am becoming a bit addicted to the Amplified Creme formula lipsticks as they are such a joy to wear and apply. They are so creamy and the lasting power is amazing. I wore this out to a meal with my family and it lasted through 2 drinks and three courses of food, which in my books is pretty impressive. What I also love about this lipstick is that it contains no shimmers and it is so creamy, as you can see by the lip swatch below.





It is available from http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/ and counters for £13.50

Is anyone else embracing the coral trend?

Lots of love
Amy

  5. Camilla- Isn't it just gorge?! :)

    Jen- Awww thank you, I think it would suit most people!

    Hannah- It is quite an orange coral, but nothing that makes you feel uncomfortable wearing it, if you get me? :)

    Charlotte- Aww thank you so much, it means a lot when someone says they like my blog! It's a gorge colour and the formula is fab, so I would reccommend!

    Sundari- Thank you so much, I bet it would really suit you too!
