MAC Cosmetics - A Mei Swatches

Site News
Christine |

A little late, but oh well…  I passed on most of the items from A Mei, because the palettes contained permanent/repromoted colors, as were the lipsticks (both are permanent), so there’s no need to rush out and get them.  I got both lipglasses since I’m a sucker for glosses!  She’s A Star is a pretty straight gold gloss with lots of shimmer and shine.  Fun to wear alone as an ultra glossy coat or to lighten any too-bold-to-wear-right-now lipstick.  Love Rules is a brighter, deeper pink, but not quite hot fuchsia pink.  The shimmer/reflects in Love Rules is pink with a touch of opalescence.  I wouldn’t say either of these are must-haves, but they are cute!

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I love Love Rules looks friggin PURPLE on the MAC site. I didn’t take a second look at it because of that… now I’m seeing all these swatches that prove is it so obviously NOT purple… & its very pigmented. I want!
