Midweek post; MAC Vegas Volt! (vs Watch Me Simmer)

MAC lipstick in 'Vegas Volt', £13.50 for 3g.


Yes, some of you may be yawning 'another MAC lipstick?' but as lip products are one of my favourite things, I like to document them!
Vegas Volt is one of those 'in your face' lipsticks that many of us know and love. Excellent for brightening up a pale complexion such as mine and absolutely divine on tanned skin, it's one of those colours that if you have the balls to wear it, it'll be a colour that'll be much loved in your collection.
One thing I noticed when I got it home is that it reminded me of one of my favourite lipsticks 'Watch Me Simmer' which if you read my blog regularly you'll know it first appeared in my 'Shop MAC' mini haul and has featured in monthly favourites posts too. I will say that I do still prefer Watch Me Simmer due to it's coral pink leaning, whereas Vegas Volt is more of a orange coral infused tomato red. Both are neon-esque shades and are great worn subtley and dabbed onto the lips or at full opacity!

Watch Me Simmer was limited edition in 'Shop' and then re-released in the 'Reel Sexy' collection however Vegas Volt is a permanent shade.
I love both of these lipsticks, and shades such as this really are staples on my summer face!

Do you own Vegas Volt?

  11. I only own Vegas Volt! While I didn't like it at first, now that I have a little tan from last week it looks absolutely stunning. It appears I can only pull it off during summer, you blue-eyed girls can rock it any time of the year! Jealous :(
