MAC Viva Glam x Keith Haring Matte Lipstick

Purchased this on a whim, loved the special edition packaging as well as the bright blue pigment. It's not an everyday look for me, but the formula is great and I always get compliments. It can be effectively worn full coverage, but also looks great sheered out to a wash with a gloss on top.

The artistry, the quality, pigmentation, finish - It's a perfect 10. I had to get every shade from this collection. The blue shade "Canal Blue" is my favorite. It's so rare to find that perfect blue lipstick. Even though there have been many iterations of blue lipsticks by other brands and even by MAC, this is a true blue with excellent performance. They're best blue yet. Goes on so smooth and evenly, comfortable, full pigment, long lasting, that classic vanilla scent. Makes me so happy. Not to mention It's also amazing for neutralizing or cooling down other lipsticks when layered. The frost finish, "St Marks Yellow," was the one I was most nervous about but it's fabulous in that 90's early 2000's club scene sort of way. It takes some building up, but for a frosty yellow it's surprisingly even. Your lips glow like you're some ethereal being with gold lips. Red Haring is my new favorite red second to Ruby Woo. It has the vibrancy of Ruby Woo but just the tinniest bit lighter, and a hair less cool-toned, in a creamy matte finish. If you want a more moisturizing version of Ruby Woo by MAC, this is as close as it gets. The way these can be mixed together or with other lipsticks in my collection is an artist's dream. Very fitting for a Keith Haring collection. I'm utterly impressed.

My mom purchased this lipstick for us a few months ago because we both love wearing wild colors and this canal blue definitely didn't disappoint. I'm in love with this one because normally dark colors separate on my lip but this one holds true! It will stay on my lips for hours without drying them out. I hope that this lip color is here to stay because I never want to be without it.
