MAC launched a new collection for Fall 2015- M·A·Cnificent Me. I was lucky to receive this matte lipstick along with 2 other products from this collection. You can read about them here. In today’s post I am reviewing the Mattene lipstick – “Strutting Fabulous” – (Bright lavender ) retails for NZD $40.00

Mattene is one of my favorite formulas from MAC. When I received this shade. Initially, I wasn’t sure whether it suits my medium-tan skintone (NC40). However, I really liked the formula. It glides very smoothly onto lips. The bullet is  sleek and gummed-frosted similar to NARS packaging.

The shade “strutting fabulous” is a bright lavender shade. Finish is between a satin or semi-matte, it does not dry completely matte,but a silky , soft texture that doesn’t accentuate fine lines on lips or make the lips dry. Really  comfortable to wear. I am not saying longevity is as great as other matte formulas from MAC. But. It gives a decent wear time. I wore it for about 5 hours survived a full meal. I really loved wearing this sahde and I never thought lavenders can look good on me. Check the swatches in daylight without any flash.

The color looks gorgeous on you, the shade reminds me of the MAC Kelly Osbourne Dodgy Girl lipstick ^^
