MAC Chili Lipstick Swatches
You know you are obsessed with a particular lipstick shade when the guy in your life has the name on his tips. Rodger Berman, Rachel Zoe’s husband said in an interview “I met Rachel in the summer of 1991. She was 19, and I was 22. She w as a restaurant hostess, and I was working as a waiter in Washington, D.C., where we both attended college. I vividly remember the first time I saw her, wearing a tight black minidress, high-heeled pumps, stick-straight hair, and big red lips covered in M.A.C. Chili lipstick (her trademark).”

Mac describes Chili as a brown based orange red. It is a brown brick red with warm tones. I would name it “less screaming” red. If Russian Red is too bright for you and Lady Danger too cool then you can check out Mac Chili. But in my opinion its a mature shade so wouldn’t recommend it too the young girls.
As for the finish, it falls in the matte category but is not drying like other matte MACs.

As you can see the orange undertone is prominent in the artificial light. But the true colour comes out in the natural day light. A strong brown base.

What is your opinion? The colour is nice but I’m not a fan. But I’m sure a lot of you are going to love it…female instinct?
