My Newest Addition

Hello friends,

As promised, I'm here with a new post! So, let's talk fall lipstick for a bit. When I say fall lipstick, I mean MAC's Heroine lipstick. To me, it's basically fall in lipstick form. I will give fair warning though: if you're not into purple lipsticks, you probably won't be into this. But those of you who are like me and dare to step away from the security of the classic light pink and nude lipsticks, then I have a game changer for you. 

I've always heard talk thrown around about MAC's Heroine lipstick but I hadn't really given much thought to it. I mean, who would choose to wear purple lipstick? If you would have asked me to put this on 2 years ago, I would have said heck no! But my tastes have changed and that's what has lead me to this gorgeous lipstick. 

The Specks: 

The Color: MAC's website refers to Heroine as a, "bright purple". I beg to differ. I would describe it as a darker purple and definitely fall appropriate. It definitely has some blue hues within it, which means your teeth look whiter and it flatters those of us who have warmer skin tones (like myself). 

The Finish: MAC is infamously known for the finishes on their lipsticks and this one falls in the matte category. Be sure to keep this in mind when deciding whether or not to purchase. Since it is matte, it will last for hours on your lips but it can be a bit drying.  However, you can easily combat this by using chapstick before you apply and/or adding a gloss on top. ( I recommend Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Berry Allure.)

The Price: $16 at your nearest MAC counter or online.
