♡ 20 Days Til Christmas: MAC 2014 Holiday Collection: Salon Rouge Lipstick ♡


If you didn't already know, each year MAC launches a new holiday collection each year and this year's is called the Heirloom mix and it's gorgeous! I always pick up a few lipsticks from the line and this year I originally got Salon Rouge and Rebel but there was this whole thing where Rebel was broken and when I went to exchange it, it was sold out and blah blah. Long story short, I only have Salon Rouge which is perfectly fine with me.


Let's talk about the packaging for a moment, as you can see it's black like all MAC packaging but it has some sparkles on it. I have to say last year's packaging was, in my opinion, better. The silver part when you walk the lipstick was golden and it was just gorgeous.


Salon Rouge is a deep red, darker than strawberry red and it's gorgeous. I really like the color, I don't own any reds like this. I almost got Sparks of Romance but I thought it looked too much like Ruby Woo but with a little bit of glitter and I don't like glitter on my lips so yeah... My big issue with Salon Rouge is that it's a matte lipstick, I love how it looks and all but it's like Ingrid (Miss Glamorazzi) said 'It's like applying a glue stick to your lips'. I prefer MAC lipsticks with a Satin finish because they're much easier to apply and my lips don't feel dry when I put it on. Therefore, before putting this lip stick on I strongly suggest using a lip scrub beforehand and some lip balm as well.

What did you think of MAC's Heirloom Mix?

♡ 24 Days Til Christmas: Xmas Playlist ♡


Long time no see! It's December, can you believe that 2014 is nearly over? I can't! This year went by so quickly and Christmas is just weeks away. I'm going to be making a series of posts over the month of December, not necessarily Christmas related but all in my C2C 'series', which stands for no other than Countdown to Christmas! 

I thought for my first post I could make an updated Christmas playlist, if you missed last year's playlist then click here! This year rather than making a list and linking every single song, I just went ahead and created a playlist over on 8tracks but, fear not, the names of the songs will appear right underneath. Just in case! So put your ugliest christmas sweater on and listen to this playlist as you decorate your tree if you haven't already!
