MAC "Watch me Simmer"

I recently got a job with MAC working part time on counter (yay) and therefore will soon be adding many more MAC products to my professional and personal collection. However to celebrate getting the job I decided that I would treat myself to a limited edition lipstick which I have been lusting after for quite some time! Watch me simmer, a bright coral orange tone, was released in the Shop mac cook mac collection and unfortunately I missed out on buying it then and didn't have to finds to treat myself to a new lipstick. When I saw it re released in the new Reel Sexy collection I decided that it was a sign that I needed to buy it so I ordered it online and received it a few days later in the post!




To say I was excited was an understatement! I have never owned a lipstick this shade before and was unsure if it would suit me but the moment I opened the lid I fell in love. The lipstick is an amplified shade which means the colour is a strong pigmented almost neon tone and goes on with a creamy texture and finish.  The colour is bright so if you are not used to wearing statement lip colours you may be a little frightened by this shade however I tried dabbing the colour onto my lips as a stain too which looked much softer for daytime wear. I, however, love wearing brights now so I went for it straight from the bullet! I wore a neon green Topshop jumper to contrast with the lip colour and I loved this look!




Once again, I am in love with a mac lipstick which makes it a lot easier to talk to customers about because I genuinely believe that these lipsticks are in a league of their own! The colour pay off and texture never disappoint me and now that I have tried this neon shade I have my eye on another bright colour, Impassioned. If you are looking for an eye catching summer shade then this is the one for you!
