MAC So Reel / Reel Sexy discussion

[duckrodeo]

I got my:

Pink popcorn-my favorite.. totally unexpected but it looks so nice and nude! (definitely nude for a girl like me, who hardly wear anything non-bright-as-hell)
Reel sexy-let's just say its suprisingly flattering on my pinky skin....again unexpected
Watch me simmer-meh....like seriously...meh
Heroine-I like it but gotta be careful with what i wear with it. it seems to clash with what i'm wearing today

Yay! So glad you got Reel Sexy!! Heroine looks goooorgeous on you, my dear! It doesn't clash with your purple cup

I finally got Reel Sexy and Heroine in the mail. I love heroine and i tried to take a picture, but my camera gives it this weird greyish cast. Piarpreet you look gorgeous and the way it looks on you is almost the same as it looks on me, it has a bit more magenta to it on me. I don't need a back up, i don't need a back up, i don't need a back up...

Lol, I have been telling myself the same thing. How do you like Reel Sexy? It's the only l/s I skipped. Still in doubt whether or not I should get it. How does it look on you? Pics?

I did like it when i tried it in the store, but i will try it on now again. I was waiting trying it again, because i was still adoring Heroine on my lips

Here is the picture of Reel Sexy. I really like it. It's a bit brighter in real life. The best way to discribe it is an opague version of Flamingo, Ever Hip or something like that. Flamingo is a bit pinker and Ever Hip a bit darker. I also think it's easy to tone down by using a dabbing motion and sheering it out with your finger.

Such a perfect colour on your skin tone and it looks so nice with your blue eyes.

Thanks for the compliment! You can also make your lips more rosy. Just rub over them with a towel I never really though of my lips as being very pigmented, but i do like their natural colour.

By the way, does it apply streaky?

By the way, does it apply streaky?

It's not streaky as long as you dab it on and smoosh you lips together to blend it in. Just start with a tiny layer and smoosh the tiny layer together before you go on to the next layer. That way it's really easy to build it up to the right intensity.

Good tip. Thanks

Good tip. Thanks

No problem I think this trick works really well for amplified lipsticks in general. I love to use this method with Saint Germain.

I used a lip brush to get a better look with Reel Sexy, worked great.

You look gorgeous! Are you wearing a lipliner with it?

You are so cute in this picture--love that lippy!

I received a request to do a softer cut crease versus the one from the other day and to also use a Reel Sexy lippie. Below is a picture and the link to the FOTD. I used Heroine l/s and Cinestyle cs/g, which are both from RS.
