In case you didn’t yet notice: I’ve got a soft spot for MAC lipsticks and lip pencils. They have every color you could possibly think of and they’re very high quality. Since I’m using MAC products I’m experiencing my lipstick being able to stay put all day for the first time.

MAC honeylove + spice lip pencil

Until a week ago I used to wear only MAC spice lip pencil almost every day, where I also wrote a blog post about. I came across a photo on instagram of someone who combined her spice lippencil with MAC honeylove lipstick though, which I find a very nice combination. So I decided to get MAC honeylove 605 as well. By wearing honeylove lipstick on top of spice lip pencil your lips will get a softer, still matte, look. It’s a very wearable, but not boring, combination. I like!

Wearable and long lasting

I’m very happy with this lipstick, the color is great and very wearable and it’s also very long lasting (even after a meal). Of course the lip pencil makes it last even longer. Since it’s a very matte lipstick it does dry out your lips a bit, so it’s important to hydrate your lips well before applying (I love Purol). My lips are extra dry now by the way, as you can tell a little by the close up photo, since I’m on accutane (heavy medication to combat acne). On a ‘normal’ person that doesn’t take acne, the dryness would therefore probably be less severe.

What do you think of this lip combo?

Lots of love,
Rowan
