Spellbound by MAC strip Down: Mehr Matte Lipstick

mad about Mehr
Meet a few of my preferred MAC nude shades this week from the MAC strip Down collection.

DUDE, the world is your oyster when it comes to nude lipsticks. I mean, there are so many out there, right? however you know, when I believe about the old-school, original nude lip look, I believe of MAC.

I started using MAC in the ’90s, as well as that’s when I ended up being conscious that nude lips were totally a thing.

MAC has produced so many iconic colors — colors that everybody rips off. Hello, old-school Whirl? all of us understand that Kylie was “deeply inspired” by it (don’t worry, I won’t go off on a Kardashi-tangent!).

I believe MAC has a few of the very best of the very best nude lipsticks since they have so many matches for the multitude of subtly different shades of bare lips out there, as well as you can see this in their “new-ish” nude lip collection, strip Down, which is on the MAC site right now.

I phone call it new-ish since the very first time I saw the product list, I thought, “Oh, I understand Whirl!” as well as “Check out Paramount!” The collection is all about re-promotes, as well as most of them are O.G. greats.

Love ya, Mehr

I’m using one of them today: Mehr. It’s a matte brownish increased with a tinge of blue, as well as you may keep in mind it from the 2010 Mickey Contractor collection. (Can’t believe that was almost 10 years ago… It actually feels like yesterday to me.)

Mehr falls along the lines of velvet Teddy, however it’s pinker as well as not as beige. It’s likewise cooler-toned than Whirl, which is likewise similar, however more brown.

You understand who’s an NC42 here…?
Mehr is one of my preferred matte nudes. It’s a throw-on-and-go color, as well as it reads as a mid-toned nude pink on my NC42 skin.

Here it is on lighter skin as well as darker skin (fast ahead to 2:11 for the swatch). It looks truly great when you do a pink on the lid (I’m using MAC Glitz Please right here on my lids) as well as a warm orange brown like Soft brown or structure in the crease.

Oh, as well as the MAC Matte Lipstick formula is impeccable, man. I believe MAC modified it over the last few years since it had been thick as well as heavy as well as intensely drying back in the day, however their Matte Lipsticks are truly smooth now as well as aren’t drying at all. I have dry lips to begin with, as well as these don’t bother me.

The formula doesn’t settle into lip lines either, as well as it lasts for hours.

SO FREAKING GOOD.
