Hello my lovelies! Today I'm going to talk about a MAC lip combo that must have been sent from the God's - because it's truly heavenly. Obviously, I'm talking bout my recently purchased MAC lipstick in Russian Red and lip pencil in the shade Brick. Red lipsticks are definitely my weakness, and when faced with the challenge of choosing a lip colour for my Prom, I knew it had to be red. The lovely lady who did my make-up at the MAC counter introduced me to this dream duo, and I can't say I've found a more beautiful lip liner and lipstick combination in my life. This liner is definitely long lasting - even when my lipstick was looking a little dastardly, my liner was strong in place, which I see as extremely ideal because it means didn't have to carry around a huge pencil in my rather small box clutch! Russian Red lipstick is now definitely on my list of favourite shades of red ever. I've been lusting after this colour since forever, but was always a little too scared of how harsh it's richness may look in comparison to my embarrassingly pale skin. However, I found that it's so flattering, and definitely doesn't wash me out, or make me look any more ghostly than I feel (phew!). I needn't add that after a rather eventful 12 hour prom/party and all that rendezvous lark, my lips (although feeling a little dry due to the matt effect of the lipstick) were as red as when I first applied the lipstick, despite looking a little worse for wear. Amazing! The combo is definitely hydrating, despite it's misleading matte effect, and as is to be expected from MAC lipsticks, and MAC products in general, very pigmented and high quality. Definitely go out and bag yourself one, if not both, of these amazing products to make the prefect red lipped dream duo.
