Fooling around with the Girl About Town :D

So, I have been messing around with my new favourite lipstick, and so far I like;

Girl About Town & Sweet Strawberry. To add a little to the colour but give it a little bit of shimmer too (bluey purple shimmer) I used Hello Kitty Sweet Strawberry for a more simple take;

Girl About Town & Sweet Tart. For a maxed out pop of colour and intense glitter for an out there massive lip look I like the Sweet Tart Superglass. I think in all fairness Cherry Electric Superglass would work better, but I don't have it (maybe I should order it??) since it would intensify the colour rather then tone it down and add different colour glitters. The picture doesn't even give you a sense of how mad the glitter is in real life! Anywho;

I love playing around with this lipstick, it's so versatile!

Review; MAC Girl About Town Lipstick

MAC Girl About Town


I got this through the "Back 2 MAC" scheme (where you return 6 empty MAC containers for a free lipstick), and since I am a lover of the pink lipsticks I had to have it. It is a daring colour and I wasn't sure if it would suit me or if it was too bright, but it looks absolutely fantastic, I certainly would advise people to give it a shot. The colour is a lovely hot pink magenta, however it is not a garish glow in the dark neon pink. It is an amplified formula so it pretty much goes on as it appears in the tube, however another perk (or maybe a disadvantage for some) is that it stays on your lips for hours. I put it on at lunchtime today and even after I had eaten and had a couple of drinks it was still there on my lips, most lipsticks would be history by that point but even hours after that and a couple more drinks later it was still magenta pink on my lips (around 5 hours). This will definitely be great for a night on the town seeing as you will hardly need to reapply after a meal or drinks! I think this became my favourite lippy and it has definitely made me want to try more amplified lipsticks to see if they are also quite long lasting. I will have a lot of fun experimenting with some lipglosses on top!
