Review | MAC Vegas Volt

Since I last posted I've been to and returned from South Africa (look out for a post on my adventure soon!), received my A-Levels and finally turned 18. After almost a month I finally have the time again, and also a wifi connection, to return to my little blog. 




On my way home from South Africa while I was waiting around at Heathrow for my connection back to Newcastle I of course had a good browse through the make-up counters at World Duty Free. My sole purchase was this MAC lipstick in the shade Vegas Volt. I spotted this shade on a swatch on Pinterest and had been lusting after it since so couldn't resist when I found it at the duty free price of £12.50.

Vegas Volt is an Amplified Creme lipstick so it has great pigmentation which gives a vibrant colour with a creamy finish that glides on and moisturises lips a little too. This colour also has great staying power, when I've been wearing it I've found it's stayed in place for as long as I've worn it, usually a few hours, until I eat at which point, like most lipsticks, it tends to come off. 

I wasn't sure whether or not I'd suit the colour when I bought it but thankfully I am in love! It's not too orange which I was a little worried I wouldn't suit, the colour is more of a bright coral so it's a great summer colour for through the day and into the night. 
It's safe to say this is definitely one of my favourite MAC lipsticks!

  4. I love Vegas Volt! It is my brightest MAC lipstick (apart from Girl About Town but I'm never brave enough to wear it). I'll definitely be wearing this one this autumn x
