I hope he was talking about the Chili lipstick from Mac Cosmetics because that is what lifts my spirits! This orangey red lipstick needs no introduction. In caught my eye at the store and I could not resist myself from trying it since I am in a red phase leaving my usual pinks and browns behind. Also I found it is hard to find good reviews of Chili in our Indian beauty blogging community so I was a bit confused initially but bought it after trying it at the store. As you can guess from my previous reviews, I love pink lipsticks to the core but after buying Ruby Woo I’ve changed completely and now its my missi on to buy all the red shades Mac has to offer! But today I am
Mac Claims: Colour plus texture for the lips. Stands out on the runway. Simmers on the street! What made M.A.C famous.
Mac Chili is not your usual red, it is a lovely matte red with orange tones which would suit most of the Indian skin tones. This red is actually a safe red if you are just venturing into red lipsticks and don’t want a full on red like Russian Red. Also I have noticed that this red shade makes my teeth look whiter than usual! It gives opaque coverage in 1-2 swipes, but I personally feel that if you apply the lipstick with lip brush instead of directly from tube then it will give a more intense look.
The lipstick stays pretty for 6 hours and after that it fades leaving a lovely tint on lips but I prefer re-application after heavy meal. The lipstick transfers a bit which can be ignored. Although its matte, its smooth in texture and glides smoothly on my dry lips. And comes with the famous vanilla fragnance that always give me the feeling of wearing something yummy evertime I apply a MAC lipstick.
The lipstick comes in usual black case packaging and is under the permanent line of matte range.
So let’s summarize the whole review for those who are always in a hurry and start reading from pros and cons only!

Conclusion: Mac Chili lipstick is a pretty orange red which you can carry if you are shy of full blown reds. It would suit all Indian skin tones. The texture is matte but its smooth and glides on easily without drying my lips. Over all I will just say – I don’t love chili in my food but love to have it on my lips!

I’m amazed, I must say. Seldom do I come across a blog that’s both equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head. The issue is something not enough folks are speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy that I stumbled across this in my search for something concerning this.|
Hi, Neat post. There’s a problem along with your site in internet explorer, could test this? IE still is the marketplace leader and a big portion of other folks will pass over your excellent writing due to this problem.|
