So I know I haven't posted in a while again, I've been celebrating my 21st birthday and as it was my 21st I had a birthday month which ended Sunday 🙈
As I mentioned in my 'Technical Glitches' post I recently got a new MAC lipstick the shade of it is 'Up The Amp'. I absolutely love the colour of this lipstick, I went to MAC and told them I wanted a purple lipstick and the girls in there were lovely they offered me a consultation to decide which colour was best for my skin and then let me apply the lipsticks so I could see which I preferred.
After trying on about 5-6 different shades of lipstick I eventually chose Up The Amp. The lipstick itself looks a bit daring but I think the shade goes with my skin tone really well. I have worn the lipstick numerous times now and find its lasts hours on end, it has more of a matte finish apposed to the glossy one most lipsticks have so if you want to create a glossy finish I suggest you put some lip balm on before applying the lipstick. This also gives you a smoother look.
As mentioned the lipstick does look dark before you put it on, as you can see in the photo above.
However, when the lipstick is applied it doesn't look as dark as you think.
You can buy the lipstick for £15.50 from any MAC counter or online at www.maccosmetics.co.uk
