Evening!
I am in love, and I want everyone to know it. Heroine is the most beautiful lipstick ever, in terms of pigmentation, performance and colour.
This lipstick was a recent purchase, Heroine was released as part of the Reel Sexy collection.
Heroine is a Matte finish, but it's not a typical matte at all. It is creamy, doesn't look shiny or glossy, but also doesn't look dry. It is an incredibly comfortable lipstick to wear, it feels almost moisturising, and doesn't dry out the lips at all.
The wear of this lipstick is amazing, as it stains the lips. I wore this on a night out, and had it on for at least 6 hours without needed to re-apply. When I woke up next morning (I was in too much of a drunken state to take my makeup off!), the lipstick was still there, and was actually quite tricky to remove.
I find this a really wearable shade, as although it is a more unusual colour, it's not particularly bright or dark, and I think it would look beautiful on all skin tones.
It is opaque, so you don't need to build it up to get decent pigmentation, and it also doesn't need a lip liner as it doesn't bleed.
Unfortunately, Heroine was a limited edition shade and I am kicking myself that I didn't pick up a back up! I've never tried it, but MAC Violetta is supposed to be similar..
Overall, this is an amazing lipstick, and is currently battling with Ruby Woo as my favourite ever lippy.
Did anyone else buy this? Or know of any dupes that I could get for a back up?!
P.S. I am also thinking of expanding my MAC lippy collection after my spending ban, anyone have any recommendations?
