A couple weeks ago i went into MAC & purchased the lipstick in "Snob".
It's this gorgeous cool, light pink with blue undertones. I had heard many good things about this, & i heard it look great on girls that had lighter skintones with cool undertones, like me!
This lipstick is really popular, i just thought i would put in my two pennies worth :)
Texture: The texture is really nice, it's really creamy-feeling & goes on super smooth
Taste/Scent: It really doesn't taste like anything, but the scent is that classic lipstick smell. It reminds me of when i was little & took my mom's lipsticks :) (i hope you all know what i'm talking about!) - though when it's on your lips, you don't smell it at all
Drying: I haven't had any problems with this drying out my lips, but i put on chapstick right before i apply it
Durability: For such a pretty color, it's kind of a letdown that it doesn't stay on your lips for very long :/. I usually have to reapply about once or twice throughout the day
Pigmentation: Snob has a satin finish & like all satin formulas from MAC, this lipstick is super pigmented, it looks a little dark in the tube, but what you see in the swatch is really what you get! Oh & another thing, if you're using a camera with flash while wearing this, it will turn out to look like a very bright & light pink!
Packaging: I really like MAC packaging. It's really sleek & simple, which i really like :) The cap also stays on really well, so you don't need to worry about it coming off in your bag
Price: MAC lipsticks are $14 or £12.50, which i think is a great value for the quality of the product you're getting :)
Overall thoughts
I like everything about this lipstick, except for the longevity of it. Snob looks amazing with a neutral eye, a toned down face with a bit of blush - you'll look like a doll! (In a good way :) This is a great item to have if you love pink lipsticks (or just pink in general ;), if you want to try something a tad different, and/or if you don't mind standing out a bit! I would definately go into MAC & swatch it before purchasing it, especially if you're thinking of buying online. I'm thinking i would like to try out other MAC lipsticks first before repurchasing Snob though. $14 seems like a lot for a lipstick, because it kind of is, but i don't really see many colors like this out there.
3.5/5

Sounds perfecto. I jinxed myself last week by acknowledging my lack of sickness. I work with children and last year got sick a lot...NOT SO MUCH this year UNTIL NOW...
ReplyDeleteMakeup is amazing. It's good for accentuating natural beauty ;) and covering up being miserable, chapped and sickened at times. I have faith in your homework :) haha
