MAC HONEY LOVE REVIEW



MAC's Honey Love. This is a present from my friend. The lipstick is a matte formula which I love and it is described as light beige with pink by most people. Like all MAC lipstick it has that vanilla scent which I love and the packaging like all other MAC lipsticks are very sleek.

The lipstick glides smoothly onto my lips and is a creamy matte finish, it does last about 5 hours before I need to reapply but I don't mind that since I do need to eat. The colour swatched is beautiful, but on me it looks peach and it slightly washes me out. I find that the colour is really hard for me to pull off. I have quite pigmented lips and the lipstick is quite opaque and covers all that need to be covered. 

Overall, I love the MAC's matte lipsticks, Velvet Teddy is my all time fave, but this one just not make the cut, it really hard for me to pull off with my yellow undertone. I can make this work by applying a brown lip liner to make it more neutral for me, but my go to MAC nude is Velvet Teddy.

What is your favourite MAC matte lipstick?
Until next time!

  1. I've heard quite a few people say this doesn't suit them, it's a shame because the swatches are gorgeous! My favourite Mac Lipstick has to be Viva Glam II, I literally wear it everyday!

  2. That color looks interesting and one I've not heard about. :) My fave is Please Me! It gives a nice matte pop of color.

  4. Mac velvet teddy is an all time favorite for me too. It's a shame you don't like this one as much. I have yellow undertones as well. My favorite everyday Mac lipsticks besides velvet teddy are faux, whirl, and viva glam v!

  5. Honey Love is a lipstick I really want as I think it looks so pretty on other people, but like you I have yellow undertones and my sister has this shade and it makes her look a bit washed out so it puts me off. It is such a beautiful shade though x

    1. I think a pinkish or mauve liner can sort that problem out, so we will have to see, dont want to waste it x
