Another MAC lipstick for you today! It's that time of the year where celebration and festivities are back to back. My latest red lipstick from MAC is the oh so popular Lady Danger. It's a shade that is very unique in my collection. I am definitely happy with my purchase. I have been eyeing this particular one for years (since, you know, it's pretty much in most beauty "gurus" MAC collection) I am such a sucker for these sugary scented lipsticks - collection slowly growing. I can never have enough MAC lipsticks in my stash... addiction maybe? I think so.
My previous post was also a MAC matte finish. However, The consistency, application and overall finish is not in the slightest bit any similar! MAC Lady Danger is much more creamier and glides onto your lips like silk. Although it is a matte finish, the longevity is shorter than MAC Ruby Woo (retro-mate finish), which doesn't phase me since MAC Lady Danger is much more nourishing. It is surprisingly moisturizing on the lips. YES. A moisturizing matte lipstick from MAC. Insert geeky emoji for that alliteration right there. The lipstick can stand up to 5 hours. Some lips may vary. The only flaw (a very small flaw) is that the lipstick tends to feather out. however, a good ol' lip liner does the job.

Described as a vivid bright, coral-red, on my skin, (NC42) the lipstick actually looks more of an orange-red which is amazing for the summer time when paired with a tan. YASS! This warm-toned shade can suit anyone and everyone. This shade will look different depending on your skintone - a more red tone on lighter complexions and more orange on deeper complexions.
It is such a unique colour and I am so happy I picked this up. Personally, I would wear this shade in the the summer since the fiery-orange-red shade has a warmer undertone - to each their own. Nevertheless, it is one I highly recommend if you're looking for a different, less starlet, yet festive red lipstick for the winter.

The colour is lovely, but quite orange toned. If you have any yellow staining, the lipstick would make them look like butter! Yikes!

haha! Oh goodness that would be such a clash! My teeth isn't the whitest. that in mind, this shade doesn't actually make my teeth look "buttery" I guess it also depends on your skintone x

thanks for stopping by and dropping some love :) It is definitely a bold lip but surprisingly wearable! I'm glad you like the photos (I am such a perfectionist) since I am really picky when it comes to photography lol
ReplyDeletex Happy N Y E!
indeed! I also did a review on Ruby Woo here with a lip swatch. It is a bit different in terms of the undertones etc. I have been lusting over MAC Russian Red! Have you tried that before? - i think it may be a closer shade to Ruby Woo (do't quote me on that)

Lady Danger is one of MAC lipsticks that I constantly rave about. It's my favourite red as it's so bright and can be worn all year around. I do find it to be quite drying after a few hours though and it starts to flake on my lips but I don't care. Definitely my favourite red EVER <3 xX
ReplyDeleteTHEFASHION-JUNKIE
yass girl! Lady Danger is gorgeous. It's not that drying for me to be honest, I guess it depends on our lips etc. (Mac Ruby Woo's formula on the other hand, is another story lol) We can Rave about Lady Danger together!
ReplyDeleteI am starting to build up a MAC lipstick collection, after not having a great experience with 2 or 3. I am currently loving DIva, but Lady Danger is definitely one for the wishlist x

Ive had my eye on Lady Danger for so long, especially since Ruby Woo is so drying. Id love a nice standout red lipstick that can be worn without drying out my lips too much, and this looks like a great replacement.
ReplyDelete-Rumbie Love - xx
Such a gorgeous colour!
ReplyDeletethat colour is stunning O:
