Royal Azaela

A few weeks ago a co-worker of mine gave me this lipstick. I had mentioned to her that I had been looking for a pink lipstick and was having difficulty finding something that worked well with my skin tone. I was so delighted when she surprised me with a MAC lipstick. It is safe to say that this is my very first MAC lippie. Everyone I showed it to loved the color. At first glance I loved it too, however I only imagined myself wearing it for a night out out as opposed to wearing it during the day and to work. I was hesitant because I was not sure if it would go with my skin tone. Once I finally tried it, I started with just a little bit, and I loved it. I found myself wearing it to work the very next day. The color is very pigmented so starting off with just a little bit will go a long way. In the picture below I tried the full color as well as a little bit. I found that full color is a bit too pink for my skin tone. I love how you do not need to add any gloss, it already has a little gloss to it. The only downside is that it it does not last very long, I do find myself having to re-apply more often than I'd hope to but overall, this lipstick has been great, I wear it with my everyday routine (which I will post soon).
