Here is Soar lip liner with MAC’s Velvet Teddy over top: Here is a swatch on my lips, just the liner: You can pair it with the same shade to make it last longer and appear cleaner, or add a punch of color to a nude lipstick or pale pink, or just wear it alone for such a beautiful brown, reddish-mauve shade. I find this color to be such a versatile shade. It’s super pigmented, and the pointed tip makes it so easy to over-line your lips if that’s what you’re into, and if you just want to trace around your lips, it’s extremely easy as well. It was a bit drying because it’s a matte lip liner, but not as drying as I thought. I always worry about wooden lip liners compared to retractible ones, because I find them to be very drying, but this one went on creamy and so smooth. I love the packaging, it’s thin and sleek, and it comes with a secure cap so that it doesn’t ruin the pencil tip, and the name is embossed on the side, with the shade color coating the tip. Here is what the packaging and pencil looks like: I have some lip swatches that are similar to some of her favorite lipstick shades, but first let’s talk about Soar! A great dupe for MAC’s Twig is Maybelline’s Touch of Spice ( review here) and a dupe for Whirl is NYX’s lip liner in “Mauve”. People say the lipsticks she uses are Velvet Teddy, Twig, and Brave from MAC, as well as Soar and Whirl lip liners.

Now, I’m not a big fan of the Kardashians or any tv star for any matter, I don’t follow celebrities at all, nor do I tend to follow many trends, but this one I really did like. Some people are frustrated because her lip color is such a 90’s trend, and that’s definitely true, but in a way, I feel like she revived it. But either way, it spread like wildfire all over the Internet, and people began to try to find the exact shade, beauty gurus on Youtube began making tutorials on her makeup look, Jaclyn Hill created “1995”, a lipstick with Gerard Cosmetics (which I review here) and in a nutshell, sh!t hit the fan. Some people loved it, some people hated it, and some people didn’t care. The lip liner got insanely popular because Instagram and Internet sensation, Kylie Jenner posted a few pictures on her Instagram over-lining her lips with a nude, brown/mauve shade, and it went completely viral.

It’s the latte kicking in.Hey lovelies! I’m back for yet another review! I’ve been on a MAC kick lately, I’ve just been searching for lipstick after lipstick, and this is my first lip liner from MAC- I’ve heard such great things, so I’m glad I finally got to pick this one up, especially after it’s been sold out everywhere for so long! Go ahead, give it a Whirl-(sorry, I coudn't resist. While it’s not quite exactly like the old Spice, it’s closer than the newer version of Spice which is a bit more pasty on me. Was it time? Did my lips change coloring to render the pigment peachy and pasty versus the light and pinky brown I had gotten used to? Well, on a recent visit to my local MAC counter I told the cosmetician of my plight, and that’s when she let me in on a little secret: Spice had changed-in fact, it used to be more of a “pinky brown.” WHAT?!? Why on earth would they even toy with perfection? Well, she didn’t know the answer, but she had a recommendation for an alternative: MACs Whirl-a more pinky version of Spice. I finally reached the tail-end of a five-year old pencil (not as gross as it sounds-initially lost, but found at a later point) and went to buy another one, only to discover it didn’t look as good on me anymore. I know a lot of you out there are fans of perennial favorite, MAC’s Spice lip liner, but did you know that it’s changed over the years? I first picked up the pencil at the age of 19 after reading how Michelle Pfeiffer used it with a layer of Clinique’s Black Honey Semi-Lipstick over it a formula that worked perfectly for my fair skin.
