The Most Beautiful Lipstick Of All Time? || MAC Alluring Aquatic

Recently, I managed to get my hands on the MAC alluring aquatic lipstick in the shade 'mystical' and I am completely in awe of the packaging that MAC created?! The press release pictures and other blogger pictures from around the time of its release were gorgeous but when you see the lipstick in real life it is quite something else! I know it makes me seem completely sad that I get so excited about a lipstick, but don't we all have a guilty pleasure?

The shade 'Mystical' was one of the only shades that appealed to me in the collection, since personally I don't wear nude lipsticks very often, and I'm not a massive fan of purple (which ruled out Goddess of the Sea), but I thought mystical was the perfect rose/mauve lipstick for Autumn and I definitely think that I am going to get a lot of use out of it over the coming months. The formula is a creme sheen which is my personal favourite from MAC because they don't dry your lips out, last a fair while and still leave a nice sheen to your lips.


Overall, I think that the whole collection is just gorgeous and I am totally in love with the packaging!

Did you pick anything up from the collection, and what do you think of the gorgeous packaging?

  1. The packaging is what sells it for me, personally - not that I've picked any pieces up. I love the shade you chose such a great shade for autumn, very warm toned x
