THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!My MAC Rich Purple was delivered. Tried it on and it's not what I expected. I'm disappointed. It's a lot darker than Punk Couture than I thought it would be. It darkens the original color too much for my liking. I was hoping it would be a closer match. I'll find a use for Rich Purple with some of my other purple lipsticks, so it's not a waste.
I tried MAC Heroine lip pencil while I was at it. Not sure why I didn't before. It doesn't darken the color of Punk Couture, which is great for me. It does create sort of a magenta cast, however. Then I tried a staple pencil that I completely overlooked in my quest for the best purple pencil. A nude color that matches my skin tone. Duh! For me, that's MAC Cork/NYX Toast. It didn't alter the color and gave me defined lips.
Happy New Year! I originally planned to go out for New Year's Eve, but then opted to stay in. I still did my makeup and decided to wear Punk Couture. I can't say enough how much I love this lipstick! I outlined my lips with NYX Prune lip pencil then added Punk Couture. It is patchy for me, but I forgive it because of the color. I layered YSL39 Pourpre Divin lipstick on top, and then used a lip brush to apply YSL47 White Gold Topaze Golden Gloss.My Hautecore and Instigator were delivered on New Year's Eve, so I've now tried all 4 lipsticks. Instigator looks as I expected on me, but I was surprised to find it to be so much darker than Punk Couture. Currant or Vino lip pencils are perfect matches for Instigator. Nightmoth makes it even darker. I was correct in thinking that Punk Couture paired with Currant or Vino pretty much makes Instigator. I really like Hautecouture and it's my second favorite from the collection.
You ladies look beautiful!
yep!What brand is rich purple from Mac?
thank you!Pretty For some reason my PC is not patchy (knock on wood) but I think I like instigator a little bit more
thank you!
thank you!! i'll def have to get one.. cause my lips are super dry- especially the lower one.:-/ and i love all these matte lipsticks! I have not been her too long but she def knows her stuff!:-D I did my winged liner according to her pictorial and for the first time both sides were similar and i was so happy! :-DThose lippies look beautiful on you and I love your hair!!! Yes, P&P works wonders on dry lips! It did on mine and I just bought it about a month ago after Erine recommended it. Thank The Lord for that woman and her makeup knowledge! I suffer from walking dead, chapped lips and P&P changed my lipstick life! You should definitely give it a try.

Not sure if it would help but it wouldn't hurt to try. If you have RiRi Nude or a similar color then apply a little of that first and then the lipstick that is giving you trouble. Maybe it will make it apply more smoothly. And hopefully it won't affect the color. Works for me with TTT. Haven't had any issues with the PC lippies to try it out but I might do it just to see what happens.
