Shop Mac Cook Mac Collection: Watch Me Simmer Lipstick

Hey girls! Today I was super duper excited because I was able to pick up something from the newest Mac collection! I had been eyeing off this lipstick online and on YouTube, and I was happy to finally hold it in my hands!

The lipstick I bought is called "Watch Me Simmer" and it is from the Shop Mac Cook Mac Collection (I think that's what it's called? It's not totally clear...) and it cost me $36 (eeek!! usually I wouldn't splurge but I earn't some money and felt like I deserved it...).

The packaging for this range comes with the cutest bright sleeves!



The lipstick is an Amplified formula, and is described as "bright pinky orange." At first I assumed it would be a coral colour, but I have learnt that the previous statement was an accurate description. The colour is quite unique and difficult to compare to general colour terms.

Even though it is not a Matte formula, I have found that it is a bit drying on the lips, so I suggest having some gloss handy :) Also sticks to the lines in my lips, if you get what I'm saying. Again, gloss is your friend :)

Overall I am really impressed with this lipstick. I put it on 5 hours ago and during that time I have consumed food and drink a few times and the colour consistency is still bright (maybe slightly muted, but definitely noticeable!).

I have attached some pictures to the end of this post, with and without flash and such. Some photos may be poor quality so I apologise.

Much love! Krystal xx
