One of MAC's secrets.

I definitely feel as though there are a world of MAC lipsticks that go unnoticed because of the popularity of others. I'm not saying I don't buy some of the best-sellers that MAC has to offer, because I definitely do - and although it's been months I am still trying to get my hands on a Velvet Teddy! But I do really love some of the less popular.

I'm not very adventurous when it comes to lipstick, I'm definitely more of a nude or "your lips but better" type of girl, and I am extremely fussy. It has to be semi-matte or full matte, otherwise I'm not wearing it! I found MAC - BRAVE when I was searching for a new lipstick to get with my "back to MAC" - you take 6 empties back to your local store and get a free lipstick in return. Its a dark pinky colour that isn't too far off some peoples normal lip colour, and not too far off mine. With a satin finish, it has a slight sheen but is in no way glossy and to me is nearly matte. And I love that. The finish makes it slightly moisturising and not at all drying - one of the biggest problems with matte lipsticks.

When I say that I literally wear this lipstick every single day it is not a lie, I absolutely adore it. It's the perfect colour to pair with a dark smoky eye on a night out or to compliment a natural and neutral brown/bare look. I will 110% be repurchasing this lipstick as soon as I run out. x x x
