Hi Ladies! After going out on Saturday night and wearing this lipstick it dawned on me that I have never reviewed it on my blog. I instantly thought I must review it as this is one of my all time favourites, if not my absolute favourite lipstick. If you read my blog regularly you will know by now that I am obsessed with berry lipsticks and own an abundance of them. Well, I have to say - GAT (I will refer to it as GAT throughout this post - Lazy haha!) is the perfect berry shade and particularly beautiful for the Autumn/Winter months.
I have owned this lipstick for over a year now and it is always top of my list when it comes to a night out. As you can see from my little collage above, I wear it on a regular basis and never get bored of it. It has been worn for all sorts of occasions and although it is a bright shade, I find the deeper pink shade with purple undertones makes it much more classy than your standard fuchsia. As with all MAC lipsticks, the quality of this lipstick is absolutely stunning. It is highly pigmented, creamy and feels moisturising on my lips. GAT is one of MAC's 'amplified' formula lipsticks which are a personal favourite of mine. I find them to be the most pigmented of all their lipsticks yet not drying in the slightest which is often a down fall of super pigmented lip products. I also find that this shade is very long wearing and even when it does start to wear off, it leaves a nice stain on the lips instead of a smudgy mess.
Of course the only down fall of this product is the price. MAC lipsticks now retail for 14.00 which has slowly crept up since I bought this for £12.50 around a year ago. However, although it is expensive, I would 100% repurchase it over and over again. As I said, I have owned this for over a year now and still have plenty left. As it is so highly pigmented, I find a little goes a long way and one swipe over my lips is all I need for an opaque, bold lip. With that in mind, I do believe the price is completely justified.
Whats your fave MAC lipstick? I'd love to hear your suggestions as I almost have 6 empties for Back to MAC so will be going to pick a new one up soon. Have you tried GAT?
Lots of Love,
I am always on the search for the perfect lipstick. As have the same colouring as you so i will def try this out. Thank you x

Thanks hun!! Xx.
Deleteawwww it suite you so much hun, goes really well with your hair and skin tone :) perfect! x
ReplyDeleteThanks gorgeous!! Xx.
DeleteI actually have never bought myself a Mac lipstick and Girl About Town is the one im soooooo tempted by, its a gorgeous colour and looks fab on you. I have the Revlon Lip Butter in Lollypop and was wondering do you think thats a similar colour x x
ReplyDeleteHey hun! It would definitely be my top pick if I was to suggest a MAC lipstick!! It is a similar shade to Lollipop but I would say it's slightly darker and more pigmented :) I think GAT is more a night out lipstick because of the formula :) xxx.
DeleteI have this one as well, but unfortunately it doesn't really suite my skin tone.. too bad, because it's a gorgeous colour.
ReplyDeletehttp://bravebrunette.blogspot.com
Oh no really? I thought it would suit most skin tones!! Xx.
Deletewowie looks beautiful! nice color :D

DeleteThis is a lovely lipstick and I completely agree that it is a classy shade! Suits you well. I love my MAC lipsticks, but they all dry my lips out beyond belief. Sad times!! xx
ReplyDeleteI love Girl About Town but I think Impassioned and Lady Danger are my favourite!xxx
ReplyDeleteI love Impassioned and Lady Danger is top of my 'to-buy' list haha :) xxx.

ReplyDeleteTor @ That's Peachy Fashion & Beauty Blog xx
It seems it's a pretty popular shade!! Thank you :) xxx.
DeleteThis is gorgeous! It looks so pretty on you! My favorite MAC lipstick would have to be Russian Red, such a great shade!
ReplyDeleteThis was my first mac lipstick! and i absolutely love it
ReplyDeleteit looks great on you :) xx
Thank you very much :) I've never tried Russian Red but I've seen people wearing it and its very pretty!! Xx.
ReplyDeleteRuby Woo's a gorgeous red, Impassioned & Nicki Minaj's Viva Glam are also great pink shades if you like your brights! I also like Myth for a nude everyday lip teamed with Nars 'Sweet Revenge' lipgloss. Gorj combo! xx
ReplyDeleteIt looks great on you!! :)xx
ReplyDeleteThis colour is gorgeous, I've never tried this one. I use MAC creme d'nude almost every day. I love a natural color on my lips, but I'll buy every single color there is of the mac collection when I'm in New-Zealand. I had to save money for my journey for 1,5 year now.. so I think that's a great excuse to spend lots of money when I'm finally there! YAY!
ReplyDeleteWith love,

It looks lovely on you. I love blue toned pinks, they're different and just pop.
ReplyDeleteI've never tried a MAC lipstick as a result of price, everything is sooo much more expensive in Australia. However, it's posts like these that help me narrow down my list for when I finally do purchase one.

You look gorgeous!
