Lips Of The Day (LOTD) Snob on Snob

I popped into CVS to grab a pack of gum before work and noticed that the flowers on a tree outside of the store matched my lipstick. I was compelled to snap a pic.



Line - LA Splash Cafe Suave
Fill - MAC SNOB (Amplified)
Gloss - MAC SNOB Lipglass

Do you own SNOB?
Did you know that
Revlon (Matte) PINK POUT is a dupe for SNOB?

Lips of the Day Featuring Viva Glam Nicki 2 Lipstick

This beautiful light lavender is an Amplified. This is my favorite formula of lipstick from MAC Cosmetics.
100% of the proceeds from the sale of this lipstick goes to help men women and children living with AIDS.
I do not plan to purchase the gloss because it looks too milky to me. I prefer to top mine with Revlon Lilac Pastelle Lipgloss.

I am wearing this over Make Up For Ever #15.
It is topped with MAC Cosmetics GOLDYROCKS Dazzleglass.

MAC Yung Rapunxel Lipstick Plus a Less Expensive DUPE

I was excited to purchase this new dark lipstick from MAC Cosmetics when it launched on September 5, 2012.
When applied, this is patchy. You can build it up.
I would suggest using a lip brush. I did not use a liner for this look.

Base - L'Oreal Hip Blendable Blushing Cream ELATED

Highlight - NARS ALBATROSS

MAC's website says:
"Coming from the 212, rap ingĂ©nue Azealia Banks collaborates with M∙A∙C on Yung Rapunxel - a limited-edition Lipstick in a deep, rich shade of plum with an amplified finish."

This is currently sold out online. MAC may replenish stock soon, like they did with the
Candy Yum-Yum lipstick in August.
















Of course, I knew I already owned a less expensive dupe. I perused the stash and voila!
NK Amethyst is a dead on dupe.
It retails for $1 US.
It can be purchased from beauty supply stores.
