honeylust.: Orange you obsessed? {MAC Redd Lip Liner & So Chaud Lipstick}

You probably didn't know that I was an extreme makeup hoarder, but I guess I'm letting all of my secrets out.
So as you may know, I went to the city for my birthday and did some damage to my wallet. One of my new purchases include a lip combo that I have been obsessed with.
I definitely prefer the simple lip balm look everyday, but these two products together just scream fun for special occasions and what not.

without further ado, i present:

MAC Redd Lip Liner & MAC So Chaud Lipstick

When I had went to the MAC store, I had originally had lady danger in mind but they were sold out:( But since I was already on a crazy witch hunt for the perfect orange red lipstick I decided to try so chaud which is a bit more orange than lady danger. then the lady basically reeled me into buying the lip liner and I was all 'it's my birthday I can buy if I want to.' So I ended up with these babies in my hands. or rather my lips.

MAC Redd lip liner is a orangish-red color as the name suggests and its a creamy texture.It's my first mac lip liner and I was very impressed with the quality and consistency of it. It makes my lipstick stay on waaaaaay longer and it makes it look less messy.

MAC So Chaud: The perfect orange red lipstick.
it's a matte finish because I'm not a big fan of stickiness or glossy lipsticks, plus matte lipsticks last longer!
It's creamy but sometimes can be a bit drying.
I do recommend it if you have a medium complexion or if you just want a nice, matte orange red lipstick.

With Redd& So chaud on my lips.Sorry for the weird facial expression but the color is pretty accurate:)

p.s. orange red lipsticks look amazing on all complexions but especially with blue eyes.
