Happy Friday folks and welcome to first post of Style Confessional's weekly beauty features. Up this week is Mac's Matte Lipstick in Honey Love. Thanks to a certain Miss Jenner, the nude lip triumphed in 2014 and show's no signs of stopping this year. Finding the perfect nude shade can be a tricky affair, so big thanks to my best friend Milly for this awesome Christmas present. Click for more below.
I first tried this lipstick when Milly and I were in Paris in December. It's been a pretty popular product in the beauty blogosphere so I was adamant to try it out so we popped into Mac's store on the Champs Élysées and I instantly fell in love with the shade.What also impressed me was it's lasting power, I applied it once in the store around midday and it lasted all the way through to dinner.
It's beige with an underlying deep pink hue which is flattering if you have a yellow skin tone like mine. The consistency, although matte, is creamy to apply but I'd definitely reccomend wearing it with a nourishing lip balm underneath as once it dries it will highlight any chapped or dry parts of your lips. In the photo above I'm wearing it without liner (sheer laziness) and applied it with the Real Techniques corrector brush on top of a coat of EOS lip balm.
Regretting not buying there and then in Paris I was so excited to unwrap it on Christmas eve when we exchanged presents, and I've worn it pretty much every day since. It's really versatile and suits almost any makeup look but I tend to wear it with winged eyeliner in the day warm brown smokey eyes for an evening look. The signature Mac sleek bullet packaging is the perfect size to pop in any make-up or clutch bag.
So, if you treat yourself to one thing this weekend make sure it's this baby, you won't regret it. Hope you enjoyed the first of my beauty features, I haven't written about beauty in so long but I do love it. Bear with me whilst I get back into the swing of things and stay tuned for more beauty posts every Friday!

This is a gorgeous colour! I so need to build up my collection of nude lipsticks. I always thought they didn't suit me, but I'm sort of starting to think how can they not?
