M·A·C 'Relentlessly Red' Retro Matte Lipstick

Hi everyone!
I'm so excited to have this new M·A·C lipstick from the Retro Matte limited edition collection. Inspired by Ruby Woo's overwhelming popularity and one-of-a-kind texture, M·A·C introduces new bold shades in its Retro Matte finish. I think that it's a gorgeous collection. To be honest, I didn't really like the Ruby Woo lipstick as much as I like the new collection with its new shades. The collection consists of 8 Retro Matte lipsticks and 8 Pro Longwear Lip Pencils (which seem to be the counterparts of the lipsticks). I found it hard to match the right shade of red for my skin tones and the Ruby Woo didn't look good on me as it looks on other people. So finally I found my irreplaceable red shade from the new Retro Matte collection which is 'Relentlessly Red'.
It's a beautiful bright pinkish coral matte, so it's definitely not a pure red color but it looks amazing on the lips. This lipstick is so pigmented and extremely long-lasting. The only disadvantage of this lipstick that it dries out the lips a little bit and you need to work with it to get the perfect look. I prefer to apply it over a lip primer (I use the M·A·C Prep & Prime lip primer).
Overall, I'm really satisfied with my choice and it's going to be my new favorite. This is not another red lipstick, I think that it's much more special. I found that the color that you get on the lips depends on the skin tone, so it'll show up differently on any person.
How about you? Did you try the new Retro Matte collection? Which color do you like the most?

Coral Obsession

Hi everyone!
Coral is a very popular color this summer. Till now I didn't like this color on me, I used to wear more pink colors. But then I understood that every person can match the right shade of coral to his skin tones. In spite of everything, I found the perfect shade of coral with cool pink undertone. Coral can be with orange or pink undertones. I found out that pink undertone looks better on me than orange undertone. Also lipsticks with cool undertones make the teeth look whiter.
Bourjois Nail Polish in 02-Prepp'hibiscus
The first thing that I purchased is this beautiful coral nail polish by Bourjois. This is my very first Bourjois nail polish and I have to say that I really love it. I like the formula, the color is rich and it's very easy to use. I have it in the shade 02-Prepp'hibiscus.
The other product that I finally purchased is the famous Yves Saint Laurent (YSL) - Rouge Volupté Shine in the shade 12-Coral Incandescent. It's been a long time since I heard about this lipstick. A lot of people told me about how amazing it is, so finally I have it and try it. I have to say that it 100% reached my expectations and I just fell in love with this lipstick, I can't stop use it. It spreads like a butter on the lips, it goes on very smooth, the packaging is so beautiful, the color is very pigmented and rich. It's very hydrating lipstick and it doesn't dry out the lips. I have just good things to say about this amazing lipstick except for the price. This is a very expensive product but I think it's worth it. I bought it for ₪145.00 (ILS) which is about $40.48 and it was in sale. As you can see the color of it is something between pink and orange, it's not completely orange and it have cool undertones as well which is great for me.

M·A·C Haul

Hi everyone!
My mother was abroad last week and she returned with some great products which I asked her to buy for me. As you know in Israel everything is more expensive, especially the high end makeup so that's the reason why I prefer to buy those things abroad or in Duty Free which is tax-free store. As you can see, all of the products are from M·A·C and I just fell in love with this brand, M·A·C products are just amazing. Up to now I tried just their lip-products, so I was very curious to try out their other products. I heard a lot of great things about M·A·C paint pots and their blushes as well. I picked up their most popular mineralize blush which is 'Warm Soul', one of their best-selling lipsticks which is 'Angel' and two very wearable paint pots in 'Bare Study' and 'Soft Ochre'.

HAUL: Makeup & New Bag

Hi Everyone!
And here I am again, updating with some new products that I purchased. As usual I'm gonna make another review post for you, so you can see how much I liked these products. I actually needed a new brown-shade purse and I found exactly what I wanted in Accessorize store. I love this store, they have amazing products in there and they're so cute. Aspecially I like theirs bags. Actually I already have few bags from Accessorize and I really enjoy them. I have a pinky-beige one which is big enough for all those things that I carry with me usually in evryday and I have two small clutches for events, clubbing and all that stuff. I satisfied with all of them cause they have a high quality and it looks as a natural leather so I decided to buy another one. Here is my babe...

First haul: M·A·C

Hi everyone!
So here it goes... My first haul post. A few days ago I was at M·A·C store near my home and I bought a few adorable beauty products. I was so excited to get them after all recommendations I got for them on YouTube. As I said in the previous post (which was the first one), I'm gonna give you my opinion about all these products right here. I hope that my reviews will help you to decide if these products are worth your money cause it's really disappointing to buy something and find out that it was such a huge mistake. If you want to see which products I picked up, just keep reading...

I really love M·A·C products, it's a very professional firm. Also they have a large selection of lipstick, eyeshadow and blush colors, everyone can match for herself the perfect color. Of course, their brushes are the top, they are amazing but really expensive, in Israel it costs a lot more then in other countries. I can't wait till I go abroad and shop there. Ok, I'll stop talking and show you what I purchased...
