This time last year I owned one lipstick...Thats right, just one, I was a lipgloss lover and I never considered the fact that I would soon after become a lipstick lover! And as a result I now own over 30 lipsticks! Don't judge, I earn my own money and as a result spend it on what I like and in this case make-up and beauty products... thats just what I do, I am a beauty addict after all.
I have a handful of MAC lipsticks all of which I wear often, however over the last couple of months or so I can't stop reaching for MAC's Lovelorn. No matter what time of the day, I keep finding myself gravitating towards this lippy! Lovelorn is a sheer, blue based glossy pink. It is just such a super pretty colour and has a lustre finish so the formula is light, glossy and buildable. I also find with lustre finishes that the pigmentation doesn't stick to the dry bits on your lips, which if you haven't had the chance to exfoliate, is just the perfect finish. It also doesn't dry out your lips and infact I find lustre finishes are very nourishing. It is most certainly a no mirror needed lipstick and it glides on perfectly with no need to add a gloss on top - so perfect for everyday wear, or when your in a rush. Considering how glossy the finish is, I only reapply every 1-2 hours and the colour doesn't transfer onto the teeth (which is always a bonus!). This lipstick just ticks all the boxes for me and although it is a little pricey at £15, I have struggled to find a decent dupe. However if you are looking for a lipstick in a similar shade and you are on a budget try L'oreal's Rouge Caresse in number 04 which is also a lovely glossy pink.
