New MAC Lipsticks/ My Favorite Lipstick and Lip Gloss Pairings

Hello Everyone!

Today's post is all about lipstick and lip gloss. In addition to eyeshadow, lip products are some of my favorite makeup products (which I'm sure some of you already guessed lol) This is a post I worked on when was away from my blog.


First, here are 3 new MAC Lipsticks I've purchased so far this year (you may have seen these already if follow me on Instagram or read my blog regularly)

- MAC Twig (Satin)

 



- MAC VIVA Glam Miley Cyrus (Amplified) 

 



- MAC All Fired Up (Retro Matte)

Now for the second part of my post, these are a few of my favorite lipstick and lip gloss pairings.

1. NYX Butter Lipstick in Hot Tamale with Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Kiss Me Coral

 

 


2. Avon Ultra Color Lipstick in Red 2000 with Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss  in Fatal Apple

 

 


3. Avon Ultra Color Lipstick in Dream Fuchsia with NYX Butter Gloss in Sugar Cookie

 

 


4. MAC Pink Nouveau Lipstick with NYX Butter Gloss in Apple Strudel And MAC Pink Nouveau with It Cosmetics CC + Lip Serum in Live


 

 

 


5. MAC Snob, MAC Saint Germain, and MAC A Novel Romance Lipsticks with NYX Butter Gloss in Merengue. All of these bright lipsticks go so well with this lip gloss.


 

 

 

 

As you can see these three MAC lipsticks are similar in color, but if anyone is wondering Snob is the darkest, Saint Germain lighter, and A Novel Romance is the lightest shade.

6. MAC Faux and MAC Twig Lipsticks with It Cosmetics CC + Lip Serum in Love

 

 


7. MAC Rebel Lipstick with Revlon Super Lustrous Lip Gloss in Berry Allure


 

 

8. NYX Butter Lipstick in Sweet Tart and NYX Butter Gloss in Strawberry Parfait


 

 


When I prep my lips with some lipsticks, I use MAC Prep+Prime, but I also like to use Nivea Lip Balm. Nivea Lip Balm works well with matte lipsticks 

 

 



What are some of your favorite lipstick and lip gloss pairings?

Some of these lipstick/gloss pairings are to die for Pilar!! I've only really been doing lipstick alone lately, but this has inspired me to go back to layering!

Avon Ultra Color Lipstick in Dream Fuchsia with NYX Butter Gloss in Sugar Cookie is simple gorgeous. I love this post and I will have to try some of the pastels for summer.

Thank you Marie!

Thanks you Ashley! I've posted a few FOTD wearing Twig and I really love it! Thanks again for the recommendation on that lipstick! I was thinking about doing a post with the lip liners and lipsticks/lip glosses! I will add that to my blog journal for a future a post!

Pilar said...

It's a very pretty color! It's not a traditional red, more like a red pinkish color. It's quickly become one of my favorite lipsticks!

Pilar said...

Thanks Shireen! Sometimes I just don't feel like pairing my lipsticks and lip glosses, but it looks so pretty when I do! Some of these colors I swatched go great together!

These swatches are so useful as I'm building my wish list and need to add some goodies. I was just at MAC and did not notice all fired up. Check list!

Pilar said...

Thanks! My mom actual mentioned All Fired Up to me as a suggestion when I was looking for a new red. It's not too red, but this color is more of reddish-pink. It's so pretty! MAC Relentlessly Red is also a pretty bright red shade !
