Review: MAC Chatterbox Lipstick

*If you want a review done just let me know on either my facebook or comment on a blog post, if you have my number text or bbm me :D

This is a review for a MAC lipstick.  I had Chatterbox for a while and i love it!  Its a nice baby pink with red undertones that isnt too showy but not too dull and of a creamy consistensy.  Although it looks like a darker pink in the tube it isnt.  It is an amplified finished which means it is extremely pigmented so you might need a light hand with this.  Chatterbox is a gorgeous summery colour and can be worn in a variety of ways; either straight from the tube, applied with a lipbrush or lightly applied with a pink gloss over it.  All in all I highly recommend this colour if your daring enough to wear it!  It lookes great on people with fair to medium skin tones.

Pros
  • Very pigmented
  • Smells amazing!
  • Great lasting power
  • Lovely colour
Cons
  • Too thick if a lot is applied
  • Makes the lines of your lips quite visible
  • Quite drying to your lips:(
  • Makes your teeth look yellow

Step 1: Put on a lip balm before you apply foundation. Mix your foundation with moisturiser and apply it all over your face and down your neck.  Countour your cheeks, temples and jawline with a matte bronzer and apply a peachy pink blush.

Step 2: Apply a primer all over your eyelid.  Pat a cream eyeshadow with gold sparkles all over the lid and blend at the crease.  

Step 3:  Place a hot pink eyeshadow in the crease and blend out to get the rough shape of the shadow.  Pack on the pink eyeshadow, blending as you go along to build up the intensity.

Step 4:  Mix the pink eyeshadow with a purple and apply it in the outer 'v' of your eye and blend into the crease. Make sure there is more pink than purple shadow showing through.

Step 5:  Put some of the pink on the lower lashline. Use a black pencil to tightline as well as waterline and smudge some on the lower lashline setting the pencil with black shadow (optional).

Step 6:  Apply mascara and a dusky pink lipstick and you are good to go :D
