Hey there! I'm so excited today to be writing my first blog entry. I just received my MAC lipsticks in 'Firm Form' and 'Smoked Purple' in the post so I am going to do a review for you! I also just bought 'Cyber' in Brown Thomas, Grafton Street, today so I will review that as well!
Firm Form; This is a matte finish black with 'golden pearls' from the MAC Strength Collection. I arrived in the shops the day after it was released to find it sold out! So I bought it on eBay from MakeUp Emporium1, a brilliant seller! It was double the price, but so worth it! Most people tend to stay away from blacks and dark colors because it washes them out, but this color is beautiful!! It's not too dark, and the gold sparkles almost give it a brownish tint, but not so much that my fellow goth chic lovers would be disappointed. It's amazing, it doesn't rub onto your teeth (which is a hazard with dark lipsticks!) with its matte finish. I would definitely recommend this color!
Cyber: This is a blue based dark purple color. Having purchased this on a whim after not being a big fan forever I came home today to find that Cyber and Smoked purple are exactly the same color! However, Cyber is a Satin finish, which is glossier and not as good as Smoked Purple in my opinion, which is a matte finish. Cyber wears off quite quickly, and onto your teeth, not where it should be! It also goes into the chaps of your lips if you leave it without reapplying for too long. Nice color but not a fan of the finish!
