Great coral/pink/strawberry Color for everyday!

This color is smooth and very pigmented. I also really love this because you can sheer it out for schoolwear/daytime but layer it for a more vibrant look for night! I am in love with the formula! Although it's about 20 dollars in Canada it's definately worth it to pick it up!

CORAL PINK

Don't be fooled by the swatches of this shade, its best to try it in store with good lighting. Its a lovely coral/pink shade that can be worn in the day time at best. It flatters most skin types (I have a medium brown/olive skin tone), and its stay on time is around 4-6 hours on me. For a cremesheen I was expecting it to be ultra smooth on application (this is because my other cremesheen called "Cream in Your Coffee" is very smooth) but I found it to pull a bit, so I need to apply some of my Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Skin Protector cream first and then blot, and then apply this shade. One application is enough as it has great coverage. The smell, like all MAC lipsticks is amazing! And I get so many compliments when I wear it. I would definitely get another one when this one runs out :-)

LOVE

This shade is fantastic! i realized that the mac swatch colors are NEVER accurate, but that's ok because i always read reviews and look at swatches before i buy lipsticks. This shade is a little bright but not at all over the top, it is definitely a fun everyday color. I do think this can be worn as an everyday lipstick if you are used to lipstick and can deal with some bright color :) the consistency is gorgeous and it just brightens up your face :) my lips were exfoliated before i put it on and i had no problems with it falling into my lip lines, thank goodness. It's sort of a bright coral that leans towards the pinker side. Its a fantastic summer color, and since i live in the tropics.. its great all year round :)

Great review Tina! I also recently purchased Crosswires and have had the same experience as you. It was a bit brighter than I first imagined, but after a day of wearing it I have grown to adore it! Its now my favourite everyday 'bright' go to colour! :-)
