Review: Mac Cremesheen Lipstick Crosswires

Here's a quick review about Mac Crosswires Cremesheen lipstick. But first let me tell you why I chose this shade among any other available color.

First it has this peachy orange tinge with a hint of soft pink as undertone. I've read good reviews about it as its considered a safe shade for starters. Its less bold than Mac Vegas Volt. 

Since Asian skin can pull off shades of coral, might as well try this as my very first coral tone lippy. 

I was too giddy to try it and share the results with you guys so here are my 'no filter' shots for you.

Take a look at my bare lips. Its a bit pigmented and dry but its not flaky. Hahaha

I took this away from the window light.

This one is facing the window. It looks very natural.

I usually dab petroleum jelly on my lips before I glide a lipstick on it.

But once I tried applying the lippy without petroleum jelly to see if it alters the color and texture. Actually even without the vaseline it glides easily and the color is bolder and darker and it kinda lasts longer, but I noticed it has a drying effect on me.

The pictures above are with petroleum jelly as base and these ones are without.

It has shimmering effect and its very suitable on my skin tone. I look and feel fresh this summer because of this shade! :)

Let me know what you think?

Review: MAC Cosmo Amplified Cream Lipstick

I'm not really into brownish nude pink lippy shade but when I saw a swatch from Mac's so called 'Pink Coco' I was smitten by bits.

Its an amplified cream with a very rich and buttery finish. It is easy to apply and has this very sweet smelling vanilla scent. 

This is actually my first bullet from Mac, I also purchase Mac Crosswires and I can't wait to make another review on it. But anyway, I've read lots and lots of review before I decided to purchase my very first lippy online.

They said this shade matches every skin tone. I am from South East Asia where warm, yellowish undertone and olive skin is very common. I myself is a so called "morena" as my skin is cooked just right to perfection, not over or under cook. Hahahaha just kidding!

So this is my 'very' bare face without make up and lipstick.

Tadahhh! And this is what Mac Cosmo looks like on me. I took a pic just in front of the window. 

I say it looks nice on me. It actually brightened up my face and looks quite enhancing. It wasn't drying and it lasted for 2 hours after eating and drinking. But all in all I'm really happy with the shade! :)

What about you? What do you think? :)
