Yes, I know, I seriously need to up my Mac liner game as I only own four! I feel like this is definitely a crime!? I don't wear lipstick all that much because I'm normally eating non-stop so it just comes off anyway or looks dreadful so I don't feel the need to own many lip liners. However, that being said I really do need to grab some more from Mac as their range of shades is amazing.
Left to right - Chic Trick, Dervish, Hip 'n' Happy, Soar
Chic Trick
I do hold my hands up and admit that I thought this was going to be red in colour and I was in desperate need of a red lip liner to go with the red lipstick's that I own (does anyone else find it extremely difficult to apply red lipstick without a guide line or liner to follow?!). Unfortunately, as you can see here, it swatched to more of a pink-red. It's a lovely shade, just not what I was expecting.
Dervish
This shade is pretty similar to Soar, but is slightly more brown toned. I picked up Dervish to go alongside two of my Mac lipsticks - Verve and Twig. Dervish also looks great by itself as an all over lip colour and, of course, lasts a long time on the lips.
Hip 'n' Happy
Such a cute baby pink lip liner! I bought Hip 'n' Happy at the same time that I purchased the lipstick 'Pink Plaid', these two are seriously a match made in heaven and look brilliant together. This will definitely be my go-to Summer lip combo this year!
Soar
I love this shade, it's a gorgeous deep toned pink that does look quite dramatic on the lips (I would definitely suggest wearing this lip liner alongside a dramatic smokey eye) and I tend to wear this liner all over my lips as the colour is gorgeous by itself!
So that is my very short and sweet round up of the four Mac lip liners that I own. They kind of fit into the 'pink' lip liner category so I definitely need to branch out and purchase some nudes, browns and definitely a proper red! I love Mac lip liners because they feel so creamy and they really do look the part. They also last a pretty long time on the lips which is always a bonus, especially when they're priced at £12.50 each.
Lovely post! You're going to feel better because I don't own any mac lip liners. *gasp* I've wanted to get them for a while but I didn't know what shades to get, but all of those look so nice! The swatches are quite helpful because you have similar skin tone to me so its easier to see what they will look like :)

Thank you! Ah that does make me feel a lot better haha! I'm glad that it's been helpful for you :) You should definitely invest - Dervish is literally the perfect 'your lips but better' shade for me xo
DeleteI wanto to try MAC liners (and lipsticks, and eyeshadows, and foundations...) so badly, they seems just great! I need to organise a trip do MAC as soon as possible - although I can't spend like 100000€ there - since I don't have that money ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat post and great reviews, loved it
Have a great day,

Their lipstick's are really good and also smell amazing! I've heard great things about the eyeshadow's so I'd also love to try them :) I'd love to have that much money to spend on makeup too haha!! Thank you so much xo
DeleteI love MAC Lipliners and I think I'll be adding Soar to my list, looks lovely.

Soar is a beautiful shade :) Thank you xo
DeleteI absolutely love M.A.C lip pencils, so this post was perfect to read! Also it's definitely not a crime that you own 4. They're all such a gorgeous variety of colours. So they surely go with a lot of different make-up looks. I love Soar and Hip 'N' Happy too, they're a few of my favourites.:D

I'm glad you enjoyed reading it and it was helpful! Thank you!! Hip 'N' Happy is gorgeous and I never thought that I would like/suit a baby pink shade on my lips :) xo
DeleteI've only ever owned one Mac Lip Liner and that was in the shade Boldly Bare. Wore it most days until my dog chewed it all!!
ReplyDeleteWas going to get Soar but I think I might get Dervish instead :)

That shade looks gorgeous! I think I definitely need to invest in that one! I bought it for my sister for Christmas and it looks like a lovely everyday nuder shade. How gutting that your dog chewed it all!! That sounds like a good plan :) xo
DeleteThank you!! :) xo
ReplyDeleteI've only got one of MAC's lipliners in Subculture, but I need to add more to my collection! Love the look of Chic Trick for the summertime and Dervish is a gorgeous, darker nude!

Thank you! They are all very pretty :) xo
DeleteI love Soar! I'll have to swatch Dervish next as it looks just my sort of thing and Twig is one of my favourites :) xx
ReplyDeleteJasmine Talks Beauty
It's such a nice shade - I bet it looks great on you! Dervish I have to say that I prefer to Soar just because it's a little more subtle and less pink! You should definitely give Dervish a try :) Twig is a fairly new love of mine - I really need to purchase more Mac lipsticks as well!!xo
DeleteI love Mac lip pencils and have quite a few. I actually don't have any of these 4 but they all look gorgeous. Hip n Happy and Soar are both on my to buy list at the moment. Lately I've been really liking Whirl lip pencil, either worn alone or under nude or pink lipsticks. And my favourite red ones are Redd and Cherry. They're both amazing. I can't do a red lip without a liner. Redd is more of a classic red where as Cherry pulls more pink toned. I love both but use Redd more often as I find it more verstaile. Great post! Katie xx
ReplyDeletewww.thestyleblossom.com
Both of those shades are great! I need to check out Whirl and thank you or informing me about both of those red lip pencils! I think I will definitely check Redd out because it sounds perfect and just like one I am looking for :) Thank you so much!xo
DeleteThey all look gorgeous, I don't own any MAC lipliners but a few shades are on my wish list! Have a lovely weekend.

Definitely invest in some, they have such a great range of shades :) Thank you! You too xo
DeleteSoar is definitely one of my personal favourites, it's such an easy to wear colour and it takes hardly any time to apply, compered with a lipstick ;)
