When I saw the new matte lipsticks by M.A.C. I was so excited, not because it was a matte lipstick but the one that stood out the most to me, the royal blue simply called royal is so lovely. I knew how I wanted to pair this lipstick, like I saw myself wearing an all denim outfit, with some M.E. reebok sneakers, chunky jewelry and a hat of course. Well, needless to say I bolted to my nearest M.A.C. store and to my dismay the lipstick wasn't coming in until the following Wednesday. To make a long story short, I have the lipstick in my possession, yes it is matte, it glides on like a sheen lipstick, my lips do not feel dry after applying the lipstick.

Fast forward to the new released KVD (Kat Von D) Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks, the hype around this product is crazy. The colors are gorgeous, high pigment and funky and the names are so adorbs. So far I have in my possession three Bow n Arrow, Echo ( exactly like the M.A.C. Royal matte lipstick) and Ayesha. I still want to get Damned, Nosferatu, Witch, Requiem and Santa Sangre. These lipsticks glide on easily but they can get a bit dry but I still love them and will continue to buy them, plus its not tested on any animals. That's always a bonus for me.

She also came out with a limited edition trooper ink liner which is basically the same liner in a different package and $1 from each one sold is donated to an animal shelter in CA. Plus, there are new eyeshadows out, and I have heard that there is going to be a Shade & Light Blush palette, and coming soon there is an eyeshadow wheel coming out. I will be in line for all of them. Oh, side note her Shade & Light contour brush is worth the doe, I tried it out and it is really good.

Both lipsticks are very similar so if you missed out on the M.A.C. Royal then pop into your local Sephora and grab the KVD in Echo before they sell out.

Enjoy
