LADY DANGER

This is my very first MAC item! I was super excited about getting this since most of my makeup is "drugstore" makeup. I'm not really sure if that's the right word to use here in Australia but whatever. I looove bright lipsticks and this is way up my alley. Now, THIS is MAC Lady Danger


The packaging is sleek and functional with matte black torpedo shaped casing and silver detailing. Not too fancy but it is nice to look at in my lipstick holder. The lipsticks have a pleasant vanilla scent to them.

I was swatching some lipsticks on my hand and Lady Danger is the one that popped out at me. It was so much more densely pigmented than the others and was a clear standout with it's brightness. Its a loud orange toned red and I think it would be amazing in Summer. It makes my skin look very bright and radiant, although the orange undertones aren't great for my teeth harhar...

The lipstick is a matte formula which is just beautiful. Not too drying and richly pigmented. The lipstick lasted a whole school day from 9-5 for me and lasts through a coffee, eating, and lots of napkin dabbing. Although it isnt transfer proof, the lipsticck does stain which is what gives it its longevity. The initial finish isnt 100% matte, although after a short time it will love the slight sheen it has and will become completely matte.

It is an amazingly gorgeous lipstick and was a great intro to MAC for me. My wishlist for MAC is slowly building up...
