MAC Veronica Strawberry Malt Lipglass Review

Hey

I am back with a lipglass review from MAC Archie Collection : Veronica.Not that I dont like Betty color but  I lean more to bold colors..

What does Mac say about this lip glass :

High-gloss, glass like finish tinted with violet,red & blackened plum - as rich & as ravishing as Veronica.You can wear it alone or wear it with lipstick for gloss look.




Price : SGD 29 for US OZ 0.17

It comes as a white packaging with Archie in between Veronica & Betty (as in real life) with small red hearts..Love whatever has hearts in it ;)




The shade is bright red so if you dont want it to show too much of the color,just apply it once over your lipstick or just apply the lipglass alone..If you want the color to be more visible then I would recommend you to apply it twice atleast..For dry lips girls like me,this is what I do..Apply lipbalm(using FE Kerala Lime) after which I apply my lipstick then my lipglass..The color does last for very long time especially if it is worn over lipstick..Staying power when applied alone is few hours only..Texture is very thick and can get quite sticky at times which I wish was not there so much..



Hearts :

- Color
- Lasting power when worn over lipstick

Heartbroken :

- Price
- Too sticky

My final say will be to get this while stock last if you are a fan of bold colors.
