This lipstick from MAC has been on my wishlist ever since I became hooked on them. I have probably mentioned before that I prefer wearing statement lips and Impassioned is definitely now up there in the more daring choices of my collection. I was lucky enough to win this in Katie's 100 follower giveaway which was very exciting so a big thank you to Katie again! I do very much enjoy discovering new blogs to read so be sure to go and give hers a follow if you aren't already.
Impassioned is an amplified lipstick meaning that the colour pay off is absolutely incredible, what you see in the bullet is basically going to transfer on to the lips. Amplified formulas are probably my favourite of the Mac line because of their creamy application also making them very comfortable to wear, and just the pigmentation you get with an amplified lipstick is unbeatable in my opinion. Of course Impassioned is no exception to that rule and as a result of its finish you won't need to do much building up to get an opaque coverage.
What stands out most about Impassioned is its colour - I don't really own anything similar. I would describe it as a vibrant pinky coral - something about this shade has me thinking sort of like flamingo pink, maybe a bit of an odd comparison there I don't know? I find that because I'm blonde I have to be careful with the sort of pinks I wear - I own Snob and everytime I wear it it looks as though I'm going for the Barbie look, which just doesn't really work for me. Thankfully Impassioned is a perfect pink (got to love those hints of coral) and it is another lipstick that makes me excited for Spring. This might be deemed a bit of a vibrant choice for everyday wear but I just think Impassioned is going to look so stunning on a bright sunny day and I can't wait to start showing this off!
Have you tried Impassioned by Mac? What are some of your Spring lipstick favourites?
So pretty all my MAC lipsticks are fairly neutral - I need to grab an amplified!
