Mac Lipstick! (Russian Red)


I was looking for some good lipsticks to ask for Christmas and I stumbled upon a video on youtube of Zoella raving about how amazing it was so I decided to ask for it for Christmas! (evidently I have become addicted to all of Zoe's blogposts and videos ever since! ;)

The lipstick did not disappoint! I love it so much! The colour is beautiful and would suit any skintone. It is not too vampy which is usually the case with red lipsticks when I use them, but this shade is gorgeous with just the right amount of yellow and pink undertones! 



I love the way it applies too. It is very creamy and the scent is delicious! I find that it smells like white chocolate but that could just be me! Although, it is very pleasing to the nose (buds? xD)

Above is me wearing the lipstick, I angled the light so it gave me a tanned skin look to show what it would look like  in the Summer. Unfortunately, I could never have as tanned skin as this in the cold Irish Winter!
I also love only dabbing a little of this lipstick on my lips and blending it in and adding clear lipgloss, it gives a beautiful deep pink lipgloss shade and lets you mix things up a bit! (sorry I don't have a photo but you should try it out yourself if you this lipstick!)

The only downside to this product is that it is so bright and outgoing, I do find it hard to have the courage to wear it out! But I wore it throughout Christmas and got many compliments so all you have to do is be brave and have confidence that you do look good!

That's all from me! Also this is my first blogpost, so I would appreciate feedback and maybe some tips on how blogging works, how to follow other blogs and all that! Thankyou! xx
