The Crème de la Crème- MAC Crème Cup

                       

                     Why you NEED MAC Creme Cup!


MAC Creme Cup- Cremesheen formula



If you're looking for a perfect everyday shade then MAC Creme Cup could be the one for you! I've long been a big fan of a natural-look pout and own far too many 'your lips but better' shades to count. However, no matter how many beautiful nudey-pinks I find, MAC's Creme Cup has always stood out as my favourite shade and with very good reason! It is described on the MAC website as a:

'light blue pink (cremesheen)

I think this is a very accurate description, the pale blueish pink means its quite cool toned so I feel you have to have pale to medium skin to pull this one off as it may look slightly corpse-like on darker skintones. The cremesheen formula means that the wear-time is decent (around 3 hours on my lips) and it leaves your lips looking and feeling soft and moisturised all day. I really think this is one of the most beautiful nude-pink lipsticks I've ever come across and as it's MAC (although they can be fairly pricey) you can rely on it being high quality! Retailing at around £15, I would definitely recommend Creme Cup and I also think it'd be a great 'starter' lipstick from MAC if you're overwhelmed by the crazy exciting amount of shades!
