The Summer Season: MAC Full Fuchsia Lipstick
The Summer Season: MAC Full Fuchsia Lipstick
MAC Full Fuchsia Lipstick ($14.00 for 0.10 oz.) is a bright fuchsia pink with full-color coverage and a slight sheen. It has an amplified creme finish, so it’s creamy but not overly so. It does have a frostier finish than the majority of amplified cremes, though. I love how opaque it is, and I find it a barely-there cool-toned hot pink, so it’s wearable for both cool and warm skin tones. This is a PRO shade that’s occasionally available through trend picks on the consumer website, but anyone can visit or call their nearest PRO store to purchase (no membership required!).
Is this the right pink lipstick for you? Would you wear it?
The Summer Season is a series of posts featuring bright, vibrant shades of coral, orange, and pink lipsticks and lipglosses — all perfect for a summer of fun — that runs through July 2010.
I like that it’s a definite pink but not an in-yo-face-over-the-top-pink. It looks very flattering.
Pro has so many fun bright pinks 🙂 Have you tried Fusion Pink? It’s a favorite of mine… It’s OBNOXIOUS!
I think so! I’m pretty sure I bought all the “wearable” PROs… so all of the pink shades, haha.
hey christine, I have a warmer golden complexion in NC30 out of the two which do you think would suit better MAC’s girl about town or Full Fuchsia lipsticks? xxxxxxxxxxxx
Girl About Town would be a little more suitable.
I have that, but sadly it gives my lips a more reddish shade.
Whoa! That is some FULL Fuchsia alright. I’m glad this lip color is still in right now because I totally feel like rocking some bright fuchsia lips.
Are you limited to certain items you can purchase from the Pro store when you call?
Not that I know of!
It’s a gorgeous color! Looks awesome with your skin tone.
I love it! Is it worth having both this and Girl About Town?
Yeah, I’d say it’s a bit different – this one has more of a frost sheen than GAT!
Do you line your lips before?
Not in swatches. I might do so if I find it necessary when wearing it in a regular look.
Definetlyyyyy getting this .
Leaving it, but just because I already have a similar shade, Pink Burst 😉 otherwise it is gorgeous!
I’m looking for a fuchsia pink, but more blue based than this, more like petals and peacocks from liberty but I missed out on that 🙁 Any ideas? Not looking for any particular brand. Don’t know my MAC foundation colour but any suggestions welcome! 🙂
Maybe MAC Lickable 🙂
Please do a swatch of Fusion Pink 🙂
Hm… I might have to check this out! 🙂
Very nice it reminds me of Mac Milan Mode that I just picked up the other day and I love.
Christine, how does this shade compare to MAC’s Speak Louder? Thanks 🙂
Speak Louder is more of a medium pink on me!
It’s really pretty!
I was wondering if your gonna do a Vamp season (dark lipsticks)? I think that would be perfect for fall!
Yes, I”ll be doing darker berries and the like in fall.
i don’t understand what a pro store is? i don’t think we have them in ireland, just the regular stores!
Hmm, maybe not then 🙁 PRO stores are stores that carry MAC’s PRO or professional line.
i think have a similar shade,it is going dutch
Nice color. It’s quite the same as impassioned.
AH! I have to get this! I wish I had a Pro store closer.
I’ve been eyeing on this shade for a while now. I think am gonna get it soon. It’s lovely on you.
I have Full Fuchsia l/s and I haven’t worn it yet since it’s so gorgeous in the tube! I got it at my CCO for $10 instead of paying $14!
Beautiful! I love how it’s not like many other fuschias and has a nice shimmer to it as well.
How does this compare to Pink Burst?
Not quite as frosty, a little flatter almost.
pretty pink
