Matte lip finish has been riding high last year in the fashion and celebs world. Everybody wears their lips without any gloss or shimmer. I must admit that I jumped late on this bandwagon but when going though my stash the other day I found countless matte shades.
Apart of my beloved red lippies I do have few matte naturals, Mac Please Me, without a doubt takes the lead when it comes to the one that ends up on my lips the most. It is more professional pink, if Barbie had to go to office this is probably what she would put on. The matte finish gives it sophistication at the same time vibrant pink keeps it looking girly.
A lot of people are complaining that the consistency of Please me is chalky and hard to work with. For some strange reason it is not the case for me, despite of being matte it is very easy to apply and not too drying on the lips. If my skin is feeling under weather I will apply Nivea lip butter and line the lips with Ingot 27 before going in with Please me bullet. However most of the time I wear the color on it's own.
I wish Mac would come up with more matte shades in their permanent range, especially nudy/pink tones that are suitable for office environment. As I grow older (and no wiser) I tend to lean towards more intense lip colors (reds, hot pinks, berry) but there is just something comfortable and simple with a good nude shade for everyday wear.
This is a permanent shade available in Mac counters across UAE
Price AED 100
