Mac Lipstick: Girl about Town

Last year I was very lucky in winning some blog competitions. One competition I won before Christmas was a Mac lipstick. I love so many of their shades and have a few on my wish list, but when it came to choosing just one it was hard. However after looking at swatches online of different Mac lipsticks I choose Girl about Town.

 Along side the Mac lipstick I also got a few Christmas goodies. The chocolates were yummy and the bath bomb smells amazing.

 Here is the LUSH snowman bath bomb. How cute is he!

Mac Lipstick - Girl about Town // Swatch

Some pictures above of Girl about Town Mac lipstick I got and also a swatch. I really love this shades and I'm so glad I choose this colour. It's a dark pink with hints of purple and is very bright and bold. I did think at first that it wouldn't suit my pale skin but it looks really good. I've already worn it a couple of time on nights out and it really helps to bring a pop of colour to my face.  It has a creamy finish which means it doesn't dry my lips out compared to other lipsticks. It's very pigmented so means you don't have to apply loads to the lips. I would say the colour last for 2-3 hours depending on if you have a drink or eat.

I'm so glad I've built up the confidence to wear more daring colour which are bright and bold as I wouldn't of chosen this lipstick. It's now one of my favourites in my lipstick collection although I don't wear it very much in the day, it's one that I reach for in the evening and when I go out at night.
 

What do you think of this shade?


I would also like to thank Megan from http://www.megssays.com/ for this gorgeous lipstick and the other goodies. She has an amazing blog, feel free to check it out.
