MAC Quite Cute Lipsticks

Hey everybody,
I know this post comes quite late, but I figured I would show you the two lipsticks I purchased from MAC's Quite Cute Collection.




Although the pastel colours captured my interest, I found the colours of the paler lipsticks too unflattering and sheer to wear. I also found the eyeshadows not pigmented enough to be worth it.  I stuck with Candy Yum-Yum (neon pink) and Playtime (a buildable and moisturizing lavender colour).


Candy Yum-Yum  (below, right) is a matte colour that can really reveal any imperfections in your lip, so exfoliate and condition before you apply it.  The colour is awesome though, and I want to wear it all the time!


Play Time  (above, left) is a sheer lavender colour.  The colour falls between Violetta and Up the Amp. It has a creamy formula that builds to a decent opacity.  This is a soft, wearable purple for someone who wants to try something in this colour range.  Very pretty and summery on the lips.

 Play Time (no liner)



 Candy Yum-Yum (no liner)

I'm really pleased with both of these lipsticks.  I was so excited about getting Candy Yum-Yum that I waited outside the store on the day it was released, so I'm really glad they worked out as well as I had hoped!

Have any of you bought these colours? What did you like/dislike from the Quite Cute Collections?

Orange Juice


Finger Paints "Tangerine Tint" - 1 coat
Sally's Girl "Amped"- 1 coat on top for fingers
juicy orange design from Konad IP m55 in Special White


I did this when it was warm outside.  Ah, bare, happy feet....I miss not wearing shoes and boots and having cracked winter heels!  But I digress...


I wanted a really neon orange, so I started with "Tangerine Tint" and then added a coat of "Amped" which really brightened it up.  I added the orange slice stamp in Konad Special White.  Big toes got two orange slices.


My feet look kind of veiny and bloaty....sorry it's not a very flattering shot of the little piggies. 


This polish colour makes me want to go put on some "Morange" lipstick by MAC which is a totally bright orange.  It's not for everyone, I must admit, but I do love it.  I usually wear MAC "Redd" lip pencil with it.





Would you wear bright orange lipstick?


Please leave me some feedback.  I love getting your comments!
