MAC Morange lipstick


MAC Morange lipstick is a opaque neon orange shade with an amplified finish.  This lipstick has been on my wishlist for quite sometime and I knew that it had to be mine before the summer came along. I wouldn't say it's a must-have since it is nearly identical to Milani's Mandarina lipstick which is about $6 at drugstores. The only difference is that the staying power of MAC Morange lipstick is a million times better that Milani's Mandarina lipstick.

Bright orange lips paired with bronzed cheeks and hardly any eye makeup is one of my favorite summer makeup trends. I was browsing through a recent issue of Vogue Magazine and came across a Chanel Allure lipstick ad that was completely beautiful. The model was wearing a bright matte orange lipstick that screamed out my name! So, I had to recreate the entire look and pose haha :)

  17. I have that Chanel lipstick & it is not that bright - your look is much better - I have that MAC pencil - What do you think about MAC Lady Danger? Too bright - maybe not.
