When I first bought this lipstick it was an instant regret as I really didn't think it went well with my skintone at all, and just looked plain awful. I've since had a little bit of an experiment with it though, and learned to love it teamed with other lip products.
Pure Zen is a really pale peachy toned nude, which can leave a lot of people looking washed out, as it's very much on the pale side. It does lean a little towards looking like concealer lips if I wear it on its own too, though it's not as bad as the likes of Myth. I have found though that if I pair it with a slightly darker lipstick, just to tone the colour down a little, or a lip liner, it can actually look quite nice.
This lipstick is a cremesheen finish, so it's nice and moisturising on the lips, but it can look a little patchy if you apply too much, and it does tend to settle in any dry patches, so it's one to be worn with super smooth lips only.
As part of #AMonthOfMAC I'm going to be thanking my lovely followers by holding a giveaway for one of you to win a MAC lipstick of your choice. All you have to do is fill in the Rafflecopter widget below, but first here's all of the details:
- The giveaway is open to UK residents only (so sorry to any overseas readers).
- You must be a follower of Kizzy Hearts on Bloglovin for your entry to count. There will be no additional entries as I wanted this giveaway to be purely as a thank you to the followers of my blog.
- The giveaway will close at 12.00AM (BST) on Thursday 1st October. A winner will be chosen at random and contacted later that day.
- The winner will have 48 hours to respond, at which point if no response is received, I will choose another winner.
- The prize is one MAC lipstick of the winners choice, from their permanent £15.50 lipstick range. I will try my best to get hold of the winners choice of shade, but please be prepared to provide an alternative if your first choice is out of stock.
