A Month of MAC: MAC RiRi Woo

Hey there,

Day 15...I'm still going through all my lipsticks slowly. I hope you are enjoying this series and that it has helped you if you are debating a MAC purchase or two.

Today's lipstick is a pretty one and it's MAC RiRi Woo.

Old picture as it was taken last winter but I hope you can see the colour. RiRi Woo is a Limited Edition colour based on Rihanna's favourite MAC lipstick, which I believe has been re-released at least twice and I just so happen to have the Rose Gold packaging...which is the best obviously.

It is very similar shade to MAC Ruby Woo so if you like the look of this shade I'd head towards Ruby Woo. 

This lipstick is a Retro Matte Finish and is a very matte blue toned Red. 

What do you think? Is it your cup of tea?

Lots of Love,

Clare

30 days 30 lipsticks Day 13 MAC RIRi Woo

Hello there,

Friday 13th is upon is, I hope your day has not gone wrong. Touch wood my day has been alright.

Today's lip is one that I have put on tonight to go to a Christmas concert in Birmingham with my parents. 

My make up look tonight was a mix of neautral from the day (i.e work) and a little extra with eyeliner, eyebrows and a crease colour on the eye.. All not pictured below.

I went for a statement red lip as it went well with my dress and I always think a red lip means glamour. 

  

MAC RiRi Woo is a limited edition lipstick inspired by Rihanna's Favourite MAC shade, which has been released and re-released 3 times each time with different packaging. As you can see I own the version that came in the Rose Gold packaging.

It is a cool toned red, which is near enough identical to the permanent MAC shade Ruby Woo, so if you like the look of this lipstick, I suggest checking the alternative.

The one thing I don't like about this lipstick is the formula... It's a Retro Matte!! This means that it's matter than matte and that means it tends to drag on the lips during application and creates no shine on the lips ( and I like my creamy shiney finishes).

The bonus of a retro matte is that is staying power is amazing. I have friend who have said they can go a whole day without having to reapply.

What do you think of this lipstick?

                     See you tomorrow,
