MAC Show Orchid Lipstick (Price 1450/- INR) Available at MAC Pro Store
I love MAC Pro line as the colours are super saturated and long lasting plus the limited line have some cult classic shade and this is one of them. I picked this long back, you can buy this from PRO store in Mumbai and also this shade comes in LE collection once in a while so there is always a chance for you to grab one.
Shade – MAC SHOW ORCHID is bright cool toned Fuchsia pink shade with duo chrome fuchsia purple sheen to it looks stunning when light hits and is wearable on any skin tone. On someone lighter then NC 35 it will be a bright Fuchsia Pink however on me it is more subdued shade of Fuchsia purple.
Texture & Formula – Show Orchid is from Amplied finish which is creamy overall but due to duo chrome sheen this shade doesn’t look as creamy or feel slippery but stays really nice. The texture is easy to work and doesn’t enhance any flaws on lips.Pigmentation – MAC Show Orchid is opaque in two swipes covering every corner of lips nicely and sits pretty. It covers any discoloration or pigmentation that lips might have.Staying Power – I get 4 plus hours of wear with this shade and then it fades to slight pink tint which doesn’t look bad either.
Overall thought
I love this pro shade and if not all you must try and get hold of MAC Show Orchid Lipstick, it is universally flattering shade and looks wonderful even if you pair it with simple liner and no blush. I have used many fuchsia lip colours but the duo chrome sheen this have is so different from regular line. A must have for Fuchsia Lovers.
