MAC Amplified Lipstick in Vegas Volt, Impassioned, and, Chatterbox Review and Swatches

Vegas Volt, Impassioned, and Chatterbox

Alright, i don't know about you but i really am starting to miss the spring/summer! Fall as just begun and while i love all the new fall colors and styles i miss my bright peachy, corals, and pink lipsticks. So as a last horrah and a final farewell to spring and summer, i would like to share my favorite MAC Amplified spring/summer 2012 shades.

Vegas Volt, Impassioned, and Chatterbox

Just looking at them together makes me want to throw on a pair of flip flops, some sun tan lotion, and head to the beach. If you go against the trends, miss summer, or just love these colors, you can pick these up at any MAC counter or here!

Vegas Volt-
A creamy coral peach. I love this color because it is both orange and pink! It is soft, it is bright, and will really add a pop of color to your lips. Since these are of an amplified finish they are very opaque, non streaky, and do not seem to show many lip flaws.

Impassioned- 
 This is a beautiful warm pink. Its a little muted so it isn't hot or neon pink, but it is on the red side. This amplified finish really makes lips look beautiful. Full and even coverage, opaque, does not show lip flaws, and lasts for almost 4 hours. A must have for pink lovers.

Chatterbox-
This bright red pink was perfect for the summer and spring of 2012. If you were to pick any pink to wear all year round this should be on the top of your list. This shade looks great paired with a smokey eye or even with just mascara for a simple girly look. Opaque, even coverage, non streaky, doesn't show lip flaws, another must have.

What were your favorite shades of the spring and summer season of 2012?

Young Rapunxel - MAC review and swatches

Ah, yet another delicious purple lipstick, if you love fall for nothing else, love it for the purple lipstick! This shade is, sadly, another limited edition. I wonder why MAC is so adverse to giving us some permanent purple, i digress.

This beautiful amplified shade, made for Azealia Banks 90's rapper, was released on September 5th 2012. While some bloggers would describe this as a semi-matte i greatly disagree. This shade is quite creamy and has a good amount of shine. While it isn't streaky its texture leaves room for any flaws on your lips to become very apparent. This shade is very plum, it is very rich, and it can lean on the red side of purple depending on your skin tone. It is similar to La Provocative but this shade is less streaky and a little lighter. So if you missed either one they are pretty interchangeable.

 Are you wearing purple lipstick this fall? If so what shade? Why aren't you wearing this trend?
