Review: MAC Reel Sexy Lipstick.
I spied this lipstick in the MAC store in Glasgow a few weeks ago and just needed it instantly. The queue was massive and I wasn’t sure if I should be buying more from MAC as I had just bought some things from the Hello Sailor collection, but I couldn’t get this lipstick out of my head.
In the end, Jordan said to me if I really wanted it then I should buy it (my boyfriend is the worst) and I did and I haven’t looked back.
Reel Sexy is from the Reel Sexy collection, it’s an Amplified finish and is described as a light, bright coral. I already have the ‘Watch Me Simmer’ lipstick from this collection and it’s also an Amplified finish. Reel Sexy is the most beautiful coral lipstick that I own, it has the right amount of warm tones and is so flattered. It’s highly pigmented whilst still creamy and moisturising, and although it’s rather bright, the way I apply it is to tap it on my lips to get a little less colour so it’s just a hint of coral.
I absolutely love this collection, I have two of the lipsticks, the Magenta blush*, Lightscapade MSF and Private Screen Cremesheen Glass*. I may review more of these in the coming weeks, but for now I have to say that if you can get your hands on Reel Sexy (it’s sold out on MACs website) then you absolutely must!
What do you think of Reel Sexy?

I love this colour. Been searching for a ‘coral’ in the MAC range and was swaying towards ‘Lady Danger’ but this looks a lot lighter & brighter. Perfect <3

This looks so pretty on you!

Really suits you! I don’t know if it’d look right on me :\ but I am tempted to try it, I think just it really looks really good on brunettes! xx

This looks so gorgeous on you! I really wanted it but talked myself out of it as I didn’t think I needed “another mac lipstick” – oh how I was wrong! xx

This looks fantastic, it’s a shame that it is sold out online! I’ll keep an eye in store. I’m also lusting after lightscapade!

I seen this colour last week and although i thought it was lovely I passed over it because it looked really ‘loud’, and im really not a fan of loud lipsticks, but seeing your swatches I may be tempted to take a trip to MAC at the weekend x
May 15, 2012 @ 12:36:12
I’m really thinking about popping into my nearest MAC to have a look! It really is such a gorgeous bright coral xx
May 15, 2012 @ 13:10:25
What a gorgeous colour! It’s such a shame that I don’t live near a MAC store so I have to order online which the popular products are always sold out

That shade looks gorgeous on you! I’m not to sure a coral would suit my more tanned complexion but maybe I’m just being a bit of a scaredy-cat.

I really like this shade on you! I can never get lipstick to look smooth on my lips, I have no idea why.. you pull it off so effortlessly.
