I am back with a little review on another recent make-up purchase from MAC Cosmetics.
I love MAC items, in particular their lipsticks but have gradually been buying products for my eyes as I'm trying out different looks on myself. One thing I recently discovered is brown is a colour which is very flattering for my skin tone as it's not too harsh and thus is great for everyday wear. I have other MAC eye pencils and so opted for their one 'Coffee' to see if it would be as good as I imagined.
Below is a swatch of the eye pencil itself, I love black eyeliners and so love this as it's still a dark shade but not as harsh as jet black.
These pencils cost £14 which may sound expensive but they apply extremely smoothly. I have found with some eye kohls on the cheaper side than once sharpened you need to wear it down on your hand as it hurts to use which just wastes a lot of product over time. However these just glide on your skin/waterline which makes the whole applying it more comfortable. In addition, I have been using this a lot since I bought it (possibly equivalent to about 30 days) and I reapply once a day if I'm doing an all day 9am until 5pm sort of thing, and I've still not had to sharpen it. So that gives you a good idea of just how long this is going to last and it's pretty impressive to say the least.
Below is a couple of photos of me wearing the product about to head out and you can see how it totally transforms my look but not too dramatically. The colour is very flattering and great for a simple smokey eye for those who aren't wanting to go all out with black. I personally love it and highly recommend it to all, especially redheads!
Thanks for reading,
